The Slave Pens in the Adventure Guide

Dungeon - The Burning Crusade

The Slave Pens

3 encounters and 79 drops. Every drop links to its item page; tradeable drops carry a live Auction House price.

Coilfang Reservoir is the name for a naga-dominated compound that lurks under Zangarmarsh's deepest waters. The reservoir, punctured throughout by massive open pipes and pistons, seems big enough to house armies - and, yet, its purpose isn't strictly military.
