The Azure Vault in the Adventure Guide

Dungeon - Dragonflight

The Azure Vault

4 encounters, 32 boss abilities and 26 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.

Long ago, Malygos created the Azure Vault as a place for Sindragosa to catalogue and store any curious magical artifacts he found. Locked away and deserted millennia ago, the Vault has since fallen into disrepair, leaving it vulnerable to attacks from without... and within.

Every one of The Azure Vault’s 26 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.

Telash Greywing

Furious at the blue dragonflight, Telash Greywing is determined to find the secrets that Sindragosa has been hiding in the Azure Vault. Together with the Sundered Flame, he is certain he will discover more about the origins of the dracthyr... and incriminating evidence against the blue dragonflight.

Leymor

Leymor was born of a humble seedling that Malygos found in a pool of ley energy. Once but a small sprout in Sindragosa's garden, over millenia Leymor has shot up like a weed. Left to its own devices, the looming giant would surely overrun the entirety of the Azure Vault.

Abilities & Strategy

Overview

Leymor disrupts intruders by growing Ley-Line Sprouts, which damage players nearby them. Each of the surviving Ley-Line Sprouts increase the damage of Leymor's next Consuming Stomp.

Azureblade

As security for the Vault, Azureblade refused to leave when it was sealed, choosing duty over safety. When the blue dragons failed to return, her bitter resignation drove her to eventual madness. Extending her own life with the magics she was sworn to protect, Azureblade now claims ownership over all the blue dragonflight left behind.

Umbrelskul

Millenia ago, Umbrelskul unwittingly meddled with raw arcane power. Riddled with crystalline growths, he was taken to the Azure Vault until a cure could be found. Sadly, the Vault was sealed away before the research was completed, leaving Umbrelskul sleeping in stasis... until now.

Abilities & Strategy

Overview

Umbrelskul continually unleashes Arcane Eruptions that create Crackling Vortexes that wander the area. At 75%, 50%, and 25% remaining health Umbreskul creates Detonating Crystals that begin to Fracture.
