Basic information
Wailng Caverns:
Levels 15 - 25
(WC)
Wailing Caverns can be found in The Barrens Near Shrine Of The Fallen Warrior. If you haven't gone to Ragefire Chasms don't worry that you haven't gotten a good group experience because just a few levels after RFC there is Wailing Caverns a great place for beginners especially Rogues and Shamans. The drops are great for all classes and it isn't difficult to complete.
There are 4 Fanglords that must die before the Main Boss may spawn
Greater Boss Information:
1st Boss: Lady Anacondra, Lvl (15-21) Elite
She isn't much of a boss but i do believe that you must kill her to spawn the Main Boss she doesn't have many valuable items on here other then quest item Gem of Anacondra She is found in the first large room of Wailing Caverns that consists of a large cirlce she spawns in three different places of that room.
2nd Boss: Lord Cobrahn, Lvl (15-21) Elite
A good Boss for Rogue drops. He is much harder then Lady Anacondra and needs quite some damage to take him down he is also one of the four fanglords you must kill to spawn the Main Boss he drops Cobrahn's Grasp (Warrior/Rogue Belt) and Leggings Of The Fang (Feral Druid/Rogue Leggings) and quest item Gem of Cobrahn He is found going left down the tunnel of the first room and following the path all the way up.
3rd Boss: Lord Pythas, Lvl (16-22) Elite
He is much harder then Cobrahn and Anacondra combined so this requires serious attention he is so hard because of all the mobs that are around him you want a Rogue to Sap a mob around him and then full force needs to be added to Pythas if followed then you should take him down no problem he drops Stinging Viper (Rogue/Warrior Mace)
he drops quest item Gem of Pythas He is found at the right of the beginning of the tunnel opposite way of Cobrahn.
4th Boss: Lord Serpentis, Lvl (16-22) Elite
The final Fanglord you must kill to summon Main Boss. He may not be as hard as Lord Pythas but that is just because there aren't very many mobs around him but he is still tough. He drops Venomstrike (Hunter Bow) very very good for hunters that level, he also drops quest item Gem of Serpentis he is found continuing the path followed to find Pythas.
After he is killed you may go back to the beginning of the instance and talk to the Tauren who will take you to summon Main Boss but I will continue that later.
Lesser Bosses Information:
1st Lesser Boss: Kresh, Lvl (16-20) Elite
He is either before or after Lord Cobrahn or even before Lady Anacondra because he romes the tunnel/hallway going to Lord Cobrahn or going to Pythas. A very high armored turtle that doesn't have much health but his armor makes up for it. This guy is easily taken with a Rogue but can do without. He drops Kresh's Back (Great Warrior Shield). He is also tameable.
2nd Lesser Boss: Skum, Lvl (16-21) Elite
He is right after Lord Pythas going to Lord Serpentis. He is a Thunderlizard
that isn't very hard to take down, easily done with a small group he drops Glowing Lizardscale Cloak (Shaman Back Piece).
3rd Lesser Boss: Verdan The Everliving, Lvl (16-22) Elite
He hits extremely hard for his level probably the hardest boss in the instance hits an average of about 125-200 damage needs extremely large amount of attention. He is found directly right after Lord Serpentis. he drops Seedcloud Buckler(Shaman Shield) and Living Root (Caster Staff).
Rare Spawn Information:
1st Rare Spawn: Boahn, Lvl (15-20) Elite
He is found right outside the instance. He isn't very hard at all, he doesn't hit hard or hit fast He often drops Boahn's Fang (Warrior/Paladin Axe) it is a BoE blue which can be sold in the AH.
2nd Rare Spawn: Trigore the Lasher, Lvl (19) Elite
He can be easily taken, and is right outside of Wailing Caverns instance portal, he is in the pool before you enter the instance won't take much to kill him and he drops Serpent's Kiss (Warrior/Rogue 1h Axe) which is also a BoE item that can be sold in the AH.
And now for the Main Boss, After you kill all the Fanglords you go back to the entrance and talk to the Tauren 'Nalpak' he will then take you too awaken Naralex from his nightmare once you talk to him and he starts walking toward the summon area you must stay with him to protect him from instant spawn mobs so don't think you can go ahead and clear a path for him becuase mobs pop-up right when Nalpak passes through certain areas.
Once Nalpak is awakening Naralex, mobs will spawn before the Main Boss spawns so you must kill them to kill the Main Boss easier.
now for the Main Boss.
Main Boss Information:
Main Boss: Mutanus The Devourer, Lvl (17-24) Elite
He hits fairly hard and you need to kill the oozes that spawn before him quick so you can kill him easier, he isn't hard if your group knows what they are doing he drops three nice blues, Slime-encrusted Pads (Caster Shoulders, 3 health every 4 seconds), Deep Fathom Ring(Nice Ring), Mutant Scale Breastplate (Warrior chest piece)
