Brackenhide Hollow in the Adventure Guide

Dungeon - Dragonflight

Brackenhide Hollow

4 encounters, 48 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 an Auction House price.

Brackenhide Hollow is the largest gnoll settlement in the Dragon Isles, and home to unspeakable danger. Decay seeps from the Hollow, spreading among the gnoll tribes of the Azure Span and threatening to rot away all life. In the heart of the Hollow lies the leader of the Brackenhide, and the knowledge she gleefully shares with her withered kin.

Hackclaw's War-Band

Rira Hackclaw and her compatriots, Gashtooth and Tricktotem, have risen up as a deadly war-band among the Brackenhide. Their tactics are the reason tuskarr never travel alone, and their strength is the reason Wratheye has them guarding the gate to the Hollow.

Abilities & Strategy

Overview

All three gnolls of the war-band assault players together. When any member of the war-band reaches 15% remaining health, Tricktotem will cast Bloodfrenzy. Upon reaching 100 energy, Rira Hackclaw will call for a combined attack with Gashtooth and Tricktotem. The war-band performs Hextrick Totem, Decayed Senses, and Savage Charge in a ferocious sequence.
