  • WoW actually has a lot of secret boss, and for this list secret boss will be a boss that is either hidden in an out of the way location, or requires a special series of events to summon. And with this video I'll be talking about bosses that fit a little of both of those categories.

    Sunken Temple always felt like a legit dungeon crawl to me- a bit difficult to navigate, the puzzle for Atal'alarion, shade of Hakkar event, and killing the priests to unlock jammal'an.

    There was this one "Loch Ness" monster looking boss that was hidden underneath the final boss-room in Blackfathom Deeps. It was kinda out of the way, and I can remember showing countless people that it even existed in the first place, as most people hardly even jumped into the water in that room until Cata, when the quests were given inside the dungeon, and everyone noted that quest object in the water.

That's also part of the reason why WoW kind of sucks, these days; instead of improving the actual gameplay, they just wave "more loot" (much easier for them, they just need to tweak a couple of numbers), and a significant percentage of the current player base goes along with it.

    The information in the video on Lurker Below is a bit off. During The Burning Crusade, he was actually considered a well known raid boss and was considered as a progression boss for entry SSC raid guilds. The part about hostile fish in the water was true, but we use to have a strategy back then where raiders on the central platform would sink themselves in the center of the water where Lurker was stationed, as the fish didn't inhabit the center circle, only the outsides of it. Lurker was the first boss that just about ever single raid guild at the time would fight, as Hydross was a mechanics, dps, and nature resistance gear check, and some guilds would save him until around the third or fourth progression boss.

    • @dont_care1591
      @dont_care1591 3 роки тому +4

      Lurker is well known only because someone actually discovered it. He is still a secret boss because the first ever group who entered SSC wouldn't have known the boss is there unless someone happened to fish that specific school and told everyone about the boss.
      Just because you know before hand about the boss because someone told you doesn't make lurker any less a secret.

If you choose the wrong one, you take damage and the puzzle resets. People just did it until they got all 6 idols to light up. There may have been something more direct, but I don't remember if that exists.

    The Nightbane mount actually has a 20% drop chance increased by each player in the group additively. It only has a 100% drop chance with a full group, which of course was required to defeat the boss while it was curren. But leaves the friendless people returning to the dungeon in later expansions to solo have to rely on a little bit of luck. Nothing outrageous, but interesting fact imo.
