Wilderness · levels 81–90
Dragonspine Peaks
West of the chasm the land rises onto the roof of the world, rain-slick slate and black grass under storms that never leave - and through it runs the Dragonspine, the petrified spine of a dragon older than the Order, crossed only at the Windswept Pass. Wyverns nest on the cliffs, storm giants and titans walk the high ground, the dragon priests keep their stepped temple under a great skull, and above them all Vorgrim the Storm King holds the Thunder Seat. The storm-wardens hold one walled outpost by the road in, Stormwatch.

Doors here lead to The Wyrm Hollows.

Its lair is at (-39, 39) – the world map in the game marks it. A fight for three to five heroes; it returns 12–24 h after it falls. A hero 9 or more levels above it cannot hurt it. After 11 minutes of a fight it rages and hits four times as hard – and twice as hard again every minute after, up to 256 times. Its health is for four heroes and grows or shrinks 15% with every hero more or fewer fighting it (up to ten) – a hero counts once they have dealt 0.5% of the four heroes' health and stand no more than 8 levels below it.
The whole pile goes to the party – or the hero – that dealt the most damage; every hero credited with the kill shares 10 times a world boss's experience by damage and earns 90 raid points, and each of their guilds gains 300 reputation.
Gathering
10 nodesEach gather gives 1–3 of the material and now and then the tier's rare one; a node regrows after 5 minutes.
