Vuk'laz the Earthbreaker
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Just now realized he literally only drops five items. No mounts, no pets, no toys, just one of every type of gear and a ring... why is there even a quest for him?
Just for confirmation, you DO get a reward for killing this World Boss even if you don't have the World Quest available for it.
