Thunder Lizards of Azeroth — fauna of WoW Classic
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruThunder lizards are large reptiles of the savannas and steppes of Kalimdor whose bodies crackle with static electricity. Among the wild creatures these squat, heavy beasts stand out for their ability to strike a foe with bolts of lightning. Their kin, the lightning lizards, are charged even more strongly and dangerous even to a seasoned traveler.
A thunder lizard hits harder than ordinary game of its level because of its electric attacks. In combat be ready for a stun and keep healing on hand.
What thunder lizards are
A thunder lizard is a massive four-legged reptile with a broad maw, bony ridges and thick scaly hide. Sparks run across its body, and in fury it looses discharges that can stun and burn a foe. Unlike the peaceful kodo, thunder lizards are aggressive and readily attack anything living nearby.
The elemental nature of these lizards links them to storm spirits: some tribes and shamans see in them an earthly reflection of the power of lightning. Tauren and nomads hunt thunder lizards for thick hides, meat and as a test of valor — felling a full-grown beast alone is no easy feat.
Where thunder lizards live
Thunder and lightning lizards keep to the open steppes and savannas of Kalimdor.
| Zone | Terrain | Levels |
|---|---|---|
| Barrens | Savanna | 10–25 |
| Thousand Needles | Mesas and flats | 24–34 |
| Desolace | Dry hills | 30–40 |
| Stonetalon Mountains | Foothills | 15–27 |
Thunder lizards and the power of lightning
Electric discharges make the thunder lizard a dangerous foe: it not only bites but stuns its prey with a thunderous blow. Experienced players interrupt its attacks or close in to keep the beast from cutting loose. The lizard's thick hide is prized by leatherworkers, and its scales and body parts appear in quests of the steppe zones.
Lightning lizards — a larger, more charged variety — live in the same lands and are a serious test for mid-level heroes, especially in open spaces where several beasts are easily pulled at once.
