The '''Brashtide crew''', or '''Brashwater crew''', was a large group of [[human]]s who were originally part of the [[Blackwater Raiders]]. They went missing and were believed to be killed many years ago, but it was later learned that they were in [[Gilneas]] just before the land was sealed away by {{npc||King Greymane}}. The pirates were held as captives and when the [[worgen]] [[Worgen curse|curse]] spread through the land, they too were changed.
−
'''Battle for Mount Hyjal''' is the 25 man [[raid]] instance in the [[Caverns of Time]]. Its difficulty is slightly below that of [[Black Temple]], and the first two [[Tier 6]] set tokens can be won here. Defeating enemies in Hyjal Summit yields reputation with The [[Scale of the Sands]].
 
   
  +
For unknown reasons, when Gilneas's borders were opened, the Brashtide crew defected to the [[Bloodsail Buccaneers]] and assists them in attacking [[Booty Bay]].
−
== Attunement ==
 
−
Mount Hyjal does not require attunement. Prior to Patch 2.4 completion of {{questlong|neutral|70|The Vials of Eternity}} was needed in order to enter the instance. The quest is still in the game, the only substantial reward being the (still quite good) [[Band of Eternity]] set of rings. Prior to patch 3.0.2 completion of the quest chain also rewarded the "[[Hand of A'dal]]", but since then it's no longer available.

Behind the MH instance portal is an anteroom which sports another three instance portals (two of them blocked at start), a reagent vendor and the [[Tier 6]] item vendor (who can also repair). The three portals lead to the three bases (Alliance, Horde, and Night Elf). The bases are also connected to each other by a long road within the instance itself. After defeating the two bosses in the Alliance camp, the second portal opens up and permits direct access to the Horde camp. After killing two more bosses there, the third gate opens, which leads to the Night Elf camp. Wipe recovery is usually possible in place, so the portals are used rather infrequently, save the last one - due to his long aggro range, wipes at [[Archimonde (tactics)|Archimonde]] usually require a corpse run.

The first four bosses are preceded by eight waves of trash mobs each. During these events, two counters appear in the [[UI]]: one displays the number of remaining mobs in the current wave, and a second for the current wave number. The fifth boss is not preceded by trash waves.

The fights take place close to the entrance inside the friendly bases (so that the NPCs can be used in a easy but controllable way). The waves (and bosses) spawn at the enemy camp outside the friendly base. Moving from there to the players takes about 20 seconds, so that drinking and rezzing usually can take place between waves.

== Talking to the Base Leaders ==
 
  +
[[Category:Organizations]]
−
As players should have learned at this level of progression, talking to NPCs can be dangerous, even if they're friendly. This holds true here, too — the first four boss events are each started by talking to the current base leader ([[Jaina Proudmoore]] or [[Thrall]]). Just clicking on the NPC suffices — it's not possible to abort the event after starting the conversation. After the second boss in each camp is defeated, talking a third time to the base leader activates the next base, spawns Ancient Crystal Mines (where epic gems can be mined) on the path to the next base, and causes the current base to be destroyed by unstoppable waves of trash mobs. It's a good idea to first distribute the loot from the second boss, then move the raid to the next base, place miners along the road, and have only one player talk to the base leader and quickly follow the others.

== Trash Waves ==
 
−
The trash mob waves spawn every 2 minutes, or after the last mob of the preceding wave is dead (if it's killed in less than two minutes). As good [[AoE]] tanking is required on many of the waves, a paladin [[tank]] is highly useful. On most trash waves, it's a good idea to set up an AoE kill zone (particularly recommended for [[Ghoul (Hyjal)|Ghouls]]). Some of the incoming mobs can be [[kite]]d by hunters to be killed by the [[NPC]]s (e.g. the [[Banshee (Hyjal)|Banshee]]s). Melee players can attack the airborn [[Frost Wyrm (Hyjal)|Frost Wyrms]] by standing within their hit box directly underneath, but [[Gargoyle (Hyjal)|Gargoyles]] must either be silenced while casting a gargoyle strike or kited by ranged DPS until they descend to the ground, where they can be reached by melee. Make good use of the NPCs, as they can add significantly to the overall raid DPS.

=== Wave Composition ===

The following table shows the individual wave compositions. Note that during waves 2 and 4 before Kaz'rogal, the gargoyles spawn towards the back of the Horde camp and must be dragged to the front by ranged DPS.

== Tips on Bosses ==
 
−
The following tips apply to all bosses in Mount Hyjal:
 
−
* The boss appears 3 minutes after the 8th trash wave (or after the last mob of the 8th wave is dead if three minutes aren't over yet)
 
−
* A raid which successfully kills the trash waves is always also capable of killing the boss (no special raid composition is required)
 
−
* The bosses can be delayed indefinitely by three rogues using [[Distract]] to give the raid time out of combat to rez and drink. When distracting, it seems that staying at the side of the boss and also placing the distracts at his side decreases the chance for resists
 
−
* The boss needs only one tank, although some fights may require additional tanks for adds
 
−
* Due to various AoE abilities, the raid must usually spread out. It's good standard practice to put all ranged damage dealers and healers well distributed in a wide circle around the main tank position
 
−  
−
== Loot ==
 
−
See [[Battle for Mount Hyjal loot]]
 
−  
−
== Notes ==
 
−
* See [[The Burning Crusade: Guild Progression]] for the world first kills
 
−
* The third and fourth bosses of the instance, Kaz'rogal and Azgalor, are essentially anagrams of each other.
 
−  
−
== Infinite Dragonflight ==
 
−
Oddly enough, although the quest NPCs involved in getting attuned for the Caverns of Time mention that the Battle of Mount Hyjal is a timeway that is being deeply disrupted by the Infinite Dragonflight, who are working tirelessly to keep it a secret from the Bronze dragons, there is not a single [[Infinite Dragonflight]] member in the instance; unlike the other two Caverns of Time instances.

| body = It's a "time pocket" if you will. There's no intended link to the Infinite Dragonflight or their dastardly deeds of altered timeways, and you're not literally interacting with history. It's simply a way for players to experience some of the larger moments in Warcraft history, and admittedly the Mount Hyjal instance isn't really linked to the world for any rhyme or reason. The timeway presented itself, it's an amazing opportunity to be there and experience such a major event, and Archimonde drops phat purples.

Revision as of 00:01, 4 December 2011


The Brashtide crew, or Brashwater crew, was a large group of humans who were originally part of the Blackwater Raiders. They went missing and were believed to be killed many years ago, but it was later learned that they were in Gilneas just before the land was sealed away by King Greymane. The pirates were held as captives and when the worgen curse spread through the land, they too were changed.

For unknown reasons, when Gilneas's borders were opened, the Brashtide crew defected to the Bloodsail Buccaneers and assists them in attacking Booty Bay.
