Where you hear it

mkoboldaggroa.ogg is the aggro cry of the kobolds in Elwynn Forest. They infest Fargodeep Mine and Jasperlode Mine, among the first areas new Alliance players explore. The kobold set is where the famous 'You no take candle!' meme comes from. The cry is short and squeaky. It is a nostalgic clip for Alliance players.

TriggerPlays when a kobold notices a player and enters combat.
