Adventure Guide Entry
The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Meathook encounter in The Culling of Stratholme.
Since Prince Arthas first encountered the Scourge abominations, they have become even more menacing. Meathook has grown stronger, more toxic and more agile than the others. Smarter was never the goal of the necromancers who created Meathook, but it only takes a base cunning to do what he does best.
