... This is laughable... My searing totem killed the Ginormus and the promoter said: ''Dr. Dealwell yells: The Ginormus has fallen! Searing totem looks like she's ready for more!'' I did not know that wooden sticks had sexes. =O

Forget the 3-man tag. All of these "bosses" are wimps that hit maybe about as hard as two normal mobs. All were easy solos as a 47 enhance shaman in quest gear...didn't even need to heal myself. Easy xp and a free blue. Have fun.

For anyone getting the message "You don't meet the requirements for that quest" when trying to pick this quest up it is likely because you have War Mode disabled. Go turn War Mode on and you should now be able to pick up and complete these quests. I do not know the full extent of this bug but it is definitely not intended and turning on War Mode definitely works as of my writing of this (Confirmed on my 120 Warrior). This bug is probably caused by the fact that the dome itself used to flag you for PvP automatically and no longer does so when War Mode is turned off.

Still doesn't explain why the questgiver sends you to the Amphitheater of Anguish though... I mean, it isn't even the same NPC in Northrend that gives the quest... Anyway...

TL;DR Turn on War Mode if you are having difficulty picking up this quest!

Edit: As a result of my experimenting, I did complete The Amphitheater of Anguish: Yggdras! and had The Amphitheater of Anguish: Magnataur! in my log when I finally completed the quests by turning War Mode on. Though I am still confident having War Mode on is all you need to do to fix this bug.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • SandscraperTanaris · Level 15-30

    My other assistants are making sure our proud new comrades are put into comfy cages and shipped to where they're needed most. For the Horde. Meanwhile, we've got one last item on our agenda. Sandscraper, the chief of the Dunemaul Clan, is probably too dumb to even be aware of what we're doing here.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Thunderdrome: Zumonga!Tanaris · Level 15-30

    Splendidly done! But you'll be fighting more than mere humans! Your next opponent's a mean one...watch out for his right hook. And his left. I'd be wary of his fists in general.
