Troggs are primitive, half-stone beings that infest the underground of the Eastern Kingdoms. They are a failed experiment of the titans: an attempt to create intelligent life from stone that ended in degeneration. On WowX5 x5 troggs are signature foes of the dwarven lands.

Совет

Troggs attack in mobs and love cave ambushes. In Gnomeregan and Uldaman they are especially numerous — keep your group together.

Who are the troggs

When the titans shaped Azeroth, they created the earthen from stone — the ancestors of the future dwarves and gnomes. Troggs are a botched byproduct of that same process: crude, dull and vicious creatures without the spark of intellect their "kin" received.

For long ages the troggs slept, sealed within ancient titanic complexes. Excavations in Uldaman and the catastrophe in Gnomeregan awoke them — and hordes of troggs poured out to fall upon the dwarves and gnomes.

Troggs and dwarves

People	Origin	Fate
Dwarves	Titan earthen	Gained intellect, the "Curse of Flesh"
Gnomes	Titan mechagnomes	Gained intellect and curiosity
Troggs	The same experiment	Degenerated into savages

Troggs are a living reminder that even the titans erred. To the dwarves of Ironforge they are shameful and dangerous kin that must be culled.

Where to find troggs in WoW Classic

Dun Morogh — troggs of Shimmer Ridge near the dwarf and gnome starting zones.
Gnomeregan — hordes of troggs that overran the gnome city.
Uldaman — the awakened within the titanic complex.
Loch Modan and the Badlands — feral packs among the ruins.

Culling troggs is one of the first dwarf and gnome quests, and later the goal of the Gnomeregan run.

Troggs on the WowX5 x5 server

Troggs are a cheap but atmospheric foe: their mobs teach newcomers to beware ambushes, and their story ties the player to Azeroth's greatest mystery — the legacy of the titans. Clearing Gnomeregan of troggs is a classic of the 25–35 leveling.
