==Strategy==
 
Periodically summons 1 Malignant Trogg plus 3 Trogg Dwellers, starting shortly after the pull. The malignant one is purple and always spawn on left side when you are facing General Umbriss. There will only be one malignant trogg alive at any given time. If the malignant trogg is CC'd, the next summon will only have 3 trogg dwellers.
 
   
  +
''Now, you might be thinking, “Alright, those Ethereals are pretty nifty, and having more storage is great! But what about actually being able to find what I own? Do you know how long I looked for that one stack of Papa Hummel’s Pet Biscuits? Like, a year. Okay, maybe 15 minutes. Either way, not even a tiny, delicious fat baby raptor is worth that kind of effort, and I love fat baby raptors.”''
The Malignant Troggs apply a stacking debuff on their melee target. It also has the curse Modgud's Malady. If it is killed near another trogg or the boss, he will spread the disease to other Troggs or General Umbriss, and enrage them. Therefore he must be killed away from other troggs and the boss. Alternatively, he could be CCed throughout the entire fight. To complete the achievement 'Umbrage for Umbriss', the malginant trogg should be CCed, and then released at around 10-15% and brought to the boss (either by a high threat dps, death grip, or a tank taunt) and killed.
 
   
  +
''Never fear, fellow tiny-limbed-corpulent-dinosaur enthusiast! We’ve got you covered. In addition to Void Storage, we’re also adding a bag search feature in 4.3 that will allow players to search for items within their bags and bank space with just a few keystrokes.''
Tank and melee must be careful to avoid Ground Siege. It's a front aoe, and Umbriss does not move while casting, so it is very easy to dodge.
 
   
  +
''Integrated directly into the bag and bank UI, this new search feature will be incredibly quick and easy to use. To find an item in one of your bags, in your character’s personal bank, guild bank, or Void Storage vault, you’ll simply type the name of the item — or a word in the item’s name — into a small search box located near the top of your main backpack and your open inventory will be filtered accordingly. Only the items that match the word or name you’ve entered will display, making it easier than ever to find exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.''
Healer need to watch for Bleeding Wounds on tank, and heal the tank to full to prevent the debuff for doing any extra damage.
 
   
 
==Notes==
Range need to watch for Blitz being cast on them, and move away if it is. This works like the charge stun from Icehowl in Crusader's Coliseum. It charges the previous location of the targeted player. And therefore fairly trivial to move out if you pay attention.

==Patch changes==
At about 30%, Umbriss enrages (Frenzy). A hunter may use [[Tranquilizing Shot]] to remove it. Otherwise everyone should use any cooldowns left and burn him down before the damage on tank overwhelms the healer. Alternately, he may be kited.

Revision as of 19:59, 18 August 2011

Void Storage will act as a massive bank specifically for armor.[1]

Official preview

In patch 4.3, characters of all levels will be able to take advantage of a new technology known as “Void Storage”, which will open up 80 slots of long-term storage space. Void Storage vaults will be available in both Stormwind and Orgrimmar and can be accessed simply by speaking with your local Vaultkeeper.

A variety of items can be placed into Void Storage — including soulbound items and Battle.net Account Bound items — making it the perfect location to store trophies from past conquests, as well as armor you may want to hold onto for Transmogrification. So, if you’ve been looking for a good home for those old tier sets or your vanity holiday items, Void Storage is it! And it’s as easy to use as dragging and dropping.

In return for this unique service, the Ethereals will require a small fee for each item deposited into or withdrawn from their Void Storage apparatus. Multiple items can be added and removed at once, and the cost of each transaction will be display at the bottom of the screen, updating dynamically as you select additional items to deposit or withdraw. Once an item is placed into Void Storage, it can remain there indefinitely for no additional cost.

It’s important to note that the goal of Void Storage isn’t to be a second bank, but rather a place where players can safely store items they wish to keep for the life of the game, either for sentimental or aesthetic reasons. Since this particular storage option isn’t really intended for belongings that you’d use a regular basis (like your current set of raiding gear, for example), any item placed in Void Storage will be stripped of all its enhancements, including enchants, gems, sockets, and reforged stats. This will help us reduce the impact such storage can have on the game servers, and ultimately allows us to provide a lot of long-term storage space with minimal impact on everyone's play experience.

Bag Search: Find What You Need, When You Need It

Now, you might be thinking, “Alright, those Ethereals are pretty nifty, and having more storage is great! But what about actually being able to find what I own? Do you know how long I looked for that one stack of Papa Hummel’s Pet Biscuits? Like, a year. Okay, maybe 15 minutes. Either way, not even a tiny, delicious fat baby raptor is worth that kind of effort, and I love fat baby raptors.”

Never fear, fellow tiny-limbed-corpulent-dinosaur enthusiast! We’ve got you covered. In addition to Void Storage, we’re also adding a bag search feature in 4.3 that will allow players to search for items within their bags and bank space with just a few keystrokes.

Integrated directly into the bag and bank UI, this new search feature will be incredibly quick and easy to use. To find an item in one of your bags, in your character’s personal bank, guild bank, or Void Storage vault, you’ll simply type the name of the item — or a word in the item’s name — into a small search box located near the top of your main backpack and your open inventory will be filtered accordingly. Only the items that match the word or name you’ve entered will display, making it easier than ever to find exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.

Notes

  • It's unknown if the storage will cost gold or not at this moment.
  • It's planned to hold between 100 and 150 pieces of gear.
  • Any equipment placed into this storage will lose all enchantments, including enchants, gems, sockets, and reforged stats.
