Very easy fight with a 1-1-1 Anubisath Idol and usually soloable - use deflection on Sunny's Solar Beam, on Root's Stun Seed as the debuff falls off and on Beaky's Lift-off, keep Sandstorm up (especially after Sunlight on the first pet) and Crush your way to victory!

Training with Durian is randomly available in Val'Sharah (46.94, 39.70) and only visible if you've unlocked World Quests.
Rewards will vary.Durian Strongfruit will have the following team (all level 25 rare):
1. [npc=99015]elemental[pet-ability=268][pet-ability=753][pet-ability=404]2. [npc=99017]elemental[pet-ability=630][pet-ability=964][pet-ability=402]3. [npc=99016]flying[pet-ability=184][pet-ability=567][pet-ability=170]
World Quest Team: [npc=55386] (1,2,1) | [npc=85527] (1,1,1) | [npc=15429] (1,1,1)
Essentially: two pets with [pet-ability=118], [pet-ability=230], [pet-ability=513] (list) & an ooze (list). I opted for Syd w/[pet-ability=934] to extend strat's viability, if you use a diff pet you'll just have to use the ooze more.vs. Sunnyvs. Rootsvs. Beaky[pet-ability=513]
[pet-ability=230]
[pet-ability=118] until Sunny dies[pet-ability=513] (unless on CD)
[pet-ability=118]
[pet-ability=230]
Swap to Syd when stunned
[pet-ability=118] until Roots dies[pet-ability=934]
[pet-ability=513]
[pet-ability=118] until Syd dies
Bring in Ooze
Prioritize:

3. [pet-ability=445]

You might find it easier to restart if [pet-ability=1400]'s stun procs on Sunny/Roots.
Spoiler
If you decide not to restart if Durian's pet is stunned, swap to Snail on Beaky & back to Cow when/if Snail dies.

Humanoid: Murlocs, Harpies, and Wolvar, Oh My!
- Surprise! [npc=68659] (1,1,1) can solo. Summary (here) by Skuppis, or play-by-play by Rikade (here). Don't forget to put Humanoids in slots 2 and 3 - [pet-ability=586] is strong vs. Beaky.Magic: Master of Magic
- Team: [npc=85527] (1,1,1) can make a big dent in this team, usually 2/3rd (credit: Arrkhal - here). For Beaky, I brought [npc=68819] (2,2,2).Mechanical: Roboteer
- Team: [npc=64899] (1,2,2) | [npc=12419] (1,1,1) | [npc=73011] (2,1,1)
I didn't wind up needing Bling, so another Mech could likely be subbed. If you don't have the Toad, Borelia has outlined how a [npc=68841] (2,1,1) could work.
