Fueled by rage, Kargath tore off his own hand to escape and led a revolt that soaked Draenor in Ogre Blood. Now, he eagerly returns to the arena to teach you the true meaning of savagery.

As the fight progresses, Iron Bombers and Drunken Bileslingers rain destruction from the arena stands. Players can dispatch these creatures after being tossed into the crowd by Kargath's Chain Hurl.

    No, iirc from Boub's stream of sandbox last month, the encounter area is a Warcraft-version of a typical modern train station.

    I believe the train system in Gorgrond is for military use. Not industrial mining.

    Btw, I'm glad we won't be fighting 30+ bosses in a row with the same environment. Highmaul looks awesome. And Kargath..... Bring on the Roman Coliseum fight!

    You remember when Arthas breaks the floor during ToC? Blackhands encounter will have a mechanic integraded with that, 3 times!. Really love how a lot of the encounter are based and interactive with the enviorment. They really liked Blackfuse/Lei-Shen, I'm glad they did.

    Man all those encounters look amazing, especially Kargath and Blackhand, I have been really longing for a proper colliseum style fight with interactive crowd (go away TotC!).

    Kargath fight seemed cool, at least until I got to the "kill all teh addz" part. Seriously, an arena encounter with Kargath begs for an one-on-one. I'm counting the raid as one

    I'm liking a lot of these abilities. Some of them sound pretty interesting. Also looks like they are doing more to keep both tanks active during boss fights.
