Dungeon - Warlords of Draenor
Auchindoun
4 encounters, 42 boss abilities and 195 drops, with the Adventure Guide’s own ability and strategy notes for each fight. Every drop links to its item page; tradeable drops carry a live Auction House price.
Auchindoun is the holy mausoleum of the draenei, a sanctum of the Light in which the spirits of the dead find respite. The crystalline structure also serves to protect and shield draenei souls from their eternal enemies: the Burning Legion, who hunger eternally for draenei spirits. This fact makes it a location of particular interest to Gul'dan and his Shadow Council, who seek to gain favor with their demonic masters.

Loot Table Value
Every one of Auchindoun’s 195 drops is Bind on Pickup, so none of this loot can ever reach the Auction House. The table below the bosses is the complete reward list; its value is item level, not gold.

Azzakel
On Argus - the former homeworld of the draenei, now the stronghold of the Burning Legion - Azzakel waits, poised for a servant of the Legion to open a portal to one of the countless worlds they seek to invade.
