WoW 5.0 New Dungeon: Mogushan Palace Preview

WoW 5.0 New Dungeon: Mogushan Palace Preview By Mimiron My name is Stan, I am 19 years old. Currently I am studying at a University. I am the founder of the FB group which posted Cataclysm news since 8/23/09. I am playing WoW since the release of Burning Crusade. I like writing articles regarding Cataclysm. The most time I enjoyed playing was high-end TBC - Sunwell Plateau.

Today we will have a look at one of the newly-implemented dungeons in Mists of Pandaria. The Mogushan Palace.

Here's the map of the dungeon's first rooms leading to the first encounter.

This is the first antechamber leading to the Trial encounter. The trash is pretty easy to be killed, no need to even CC.

This dungeon can be accessed via the Dungeon Finder and you are required to be level 87 or higher. The queues are currently pretty long, due to the tank/healer shortage, because not many people are leveling on beta realms.

The Heroic Mode is available at level 88 according to wowhead (note that this data is subject to change at any given time and it may even be slightly incorrect, since heroic modes were always available only at level caps 80, 85 and now 90.)

Another thing is the loot. There is no loot in the BETA yet and also I as a level 88 character, didn't get any XP killing mobs there, nor did I get any XP completing a quest in the dungeon.

Mogu'shan Palace has three bosses / encounters

The first one is Trial of the King

Ming the Cunning, Kuai the Brute, and Hayian the Unstoppable have journeyed to the palace with their clans, vying to prove their worth to their king. Yet these mogu factions are plagued with bitter rivalries. Violence threatens to flood the palatial grounds unless the bickering clans can find a way to test their strength without coming to blows with one another.

My group was comprised of a monk tank, balance druid, monk healer, arcane mage (me), I'm not really sure what class the fifth player was.

Here is the Trial encounter. The three mini-bosses you need to kill each have approx. 5,000K HP. The trash mobs (spectators) are ocassionally stunning players.

The mini-bosses attack one by one, so there is no problem in killing them.

After you're done with the trial a stairway leading to the second boss opens...
