An early *LOOK* at Throne of Thunder bosses

Unread post by Quiv »

I emphasize look because this is just that, a look. These are mere screen caps from the dungeon journal on PTR.

They are not pictured in raid order, so I will list raid order in Dungeon Journal.

Jin'rokh the Breaker
Horridon
The Council of Elders (4)
Tortos
Megaera (Fire Head, Frost Head, Poison Head)
Ji-Kun
Durumu the Forgotten
Primordius
Dark Animus
Iron Qon (and Quillen Champions)
Twin Consorts
Lei Shen

A few notes:
-The thirteenth heroic only boss Ra-Den (spelling?) is not in Dungeon Journal atm.
-Megaera only has the Fire Head pictured in the journal. When the patch was datamined, other similar heads were found so I posted them. I assume the blue is Frost Head and green is Poison Head (Frost Head and Poison Head is listed in the journal abilities). Not sure what the fourth purple head is, but I listed it anyway.

Fire, Frost/Arcane, Nature, Arcane/Shadow for the Hydra heads is my guess.
Dark Animus... I'm really hoping for a minipet of him. >.<
And an adult watcher minipet >___>

Twin Consorts? Really?

Would it kill Blizzard to let a female be the second to last boss without it being two of them?

She's a final boss. Ditto Lady Vashj.

But Lei Shi is female and alone. :)

I meant more along the lines of an adult. xD

Seems either they have to be corrupted, little kids, or in a pair. xD

Who says she's not an adult? :) Sounds like confirmation bias to me. ;)

And the most annoying boss EVER.

Lei Shi uses HIDE.
Quiv is now AFK since hunters are about 99% useless during hide.

All of the spirits sound like that. It goes with being eternal beings.

Of course, this gets us into a debate of whether "adulthood" is a number or a mentality....

Yeah same. Tho I'd like it more if they made a model for female Ice/Forest trolls that fitted with the male ones. The jungle/sand/dark model they use just looks out of place. It's tiny :lol:

I have to wonder... is it possible the heroic-only boss will be the leader of the Zandalari Trolls? Maybe the old one died in the Cataclysm when the island was destroyed, and he's the new one? XD

Maybe... *shrugs*

For all we know, this hidden heroic-only boss, Ra-den, could actually be that lightning beaver that had some models shown when images were leaked.

OH MY GOD I WILL BE SOOOOO HAPPY IF IT REALLY IS RA-DEN IS THE LIGHTNING BEAVER!! :lol: The source of the Thunder King's power all along...

Red = fire, Blue = ice, Green = poison, Purple (heroic-only) = arcane. Like the Wizard's Hydra spells from Diablo 3. XD

I'm pretty sure if Rhastakhan died, the newscaster is the mysterious prophet, "Zul", who is shown in the trailer for patch 4.1. I don't think this will be he las of the Zandalari, no only because of Zul, but also because Hakkar is free again.

I suspect Hakkar with several other Loa, or even Old God minions resurface along with the last of the Zandalari. Maybe the old god N'Zoth will surface in the same time.

I was taking a look in the Journal myself and for Megaera it shows what the three heads are, I am not sure what the purple one is as it's not listed there (Or at the very least I didn't see it) but the heads that I saw were

Fire - Red
Frost - Blue
Poison - Green

Maybe the purple one is the Central or main head of Megaera owo at least that would be my guess. I remember when I saw it on Wowhead XD I had fun watching the animations for it. I love the way they flounder about when they are casting spells at least I think that was the animation lol
