Every quest has its own set of trials and tribulations that you—the hero—must overcome. At the end of it all, you get awesome rewards! But before you even think about your loot, you need to first overcome the inevitable faceoff with various bosses. That experience, in itself, is already an adventure worth noting—a total culmination of your long and arduous trek! From the sudden shift in feel to the ominous music that ensues, practically everything changes and you know you’re in for some action whenever a boss fight starts.
In Shadowlands, the world bosses are perhaps the best way to acquire powerful gear and primo loot in the form of various WoW items—not to mention the WoW gold you’ll rack up along the way. The gear you can get from Shadowlands bosses are actually so powerful that they’re comparable to the goodies you can acquire from Castle Nathria (the new raid)on normal difficulty!
Ready yourself because once these bosses become available to you, you’ll want to farm themas much as you can!
Valinor the Light of Eons
Found in the Bastion zone, Valinor will become available once you destroy the barrels of anima within his vicinity. And when that happens, look out! He’s one tough boss as he has several abilities (Anima Charge, Charged Blast Anima, Mark of Penitence, Recharge Anima) at his disposal—all of which can dish out tremendous damage to the unwary adventurer. For your sake, try to maintain a distance of at least 10 yards between you and him. The good news is that, like all Shadowlands world bosses, the loot you gain are worth your troubles. Among them are Soulbind Conduits for all classes, Memory of Archbishop Benedictus, Memory of the Final Verdict, Memory of the Windspeaker’s Lava Resurgence, Oversized Centurion Helm, Shroud of the Penitent, Anima-Charged Wristbanding, Doubtweaver’s Handwraps, Servo-Chain Waistguard, and Valinor’s Ground Pounders.
Mortanis
You’ll find Mortanis in the Maldraxxus zone. To face off against him, you’ll need to overcome all the necromancers surrounding him. He’ll try to whittle down your health bar through various area-of-effect abilities so you’ll need to be quick on your feet. His most notable abilities are Screaming Skull and Bone Cleave, but the one you really need to watch out for is Lord of the Fallen as it covers the entire arena while reducing the cooldown of his other abilities. The loot you will get from him includes Soulbind Conduits, Memory of a Guile Charm, Memory of Fujieda, Memory of Keefer, Mortanis’s Ribcage, Shoulderblade Vambraces, Bone Crushing Vicegrips, Spine Crawler Waistcord, Bone-Cleated Footpads, and Band of the Risen Bonelord.
Oranomonos the Everbranching
You’ll need to go to the Ardenweald zone to face off against Oranomonos. Beware as she has a powerful team of healers. You practically won’t have any safe space as she’ll rain a barrage of abilities upon the arena (Withered Winds). Once you manage to whittle down her health, she’ll then deploy Dirge of the Fallen Sanctum, effectively slowing down the entire raid. All’s good though because once you manage to beat her, you’ll get Soulbind Conduits for all classes, Memory of a Fevered Incantation, Memory of Surging Shots, Memory of the Verdant Infusion, Ironfoot Bindings, Seed-Tender’s Handwraps, Stonebark Girdle, Oranomonos’s Diaphanous Leggings, Slippers of the Leafy Undergrowth, and Twisted Witherroot Band.
Nurgash
Finally, there’s Nurgash. The thing about him is that you’ll need to be swift in killing him. Otherwise, he will just keep growing in strength until he eventually overwhelms you. As he has certain abilities that are geared toward long-ranged attacks, you’ll need to keep him in close proximity. Be warned though as he can dish out the occasional area-of-effect ability. Be wary of his Stone Stomp move. Other abilities are Hardened Muck, Earthen Blast, and Hail of Stones. Once all is said and done, you’ll get Soulbind Conduits for all classes, Memory of a Frenzied Monstrosity, Memory of an Erratic Fel Core, Memory of Azj’Aqir’s Madness, Muckformed Chain Choker, Sinstone Shoulderpadding, Comfortable Slumberwraps, Hardened Castle Crushers, Nurgash’s Belt of Many Sinstones, and Jingling Stone Stompers from him.
And that’s just about it for the World of Warcraft Shadowlands bosses! Remember to stock up on the essentials whenever you buy WoW gold from your various cheap WoW gold sources. And good luck in your adventures through the wonderful world of Azeroth!
