Location: Halls of Lightning, Storm Peaks
Faction: Neutral
There is a lot of weird stuff in the Storm Peaks, but this one I stumbled on when running Halls of Lightning and while waiting for a new tank via LFG (the first tank bailed after downing the first boss. We presumed he only needed one Emblem for something.) I decided to wander around the Unyielding Garrison (First big room) and take a look around. Below the small platforms extended in mid-air, I found a legion of massive Iron Vrykul standing around.
They certainly didn’t seem animated, or at least I don’t recall seeing them move any. They just stand there in formation. The other thing that caught me was the size of them. I mean, we’ve seen Iron Vrykul in different places before, but they tended to be about normal Vrykul height if not a little bigger (Runemaster Molgeim in the Antechamber of Ulduar is the biggest I believe) but these things look big enough to dwarf the elemental giants in the Vault of Archevon. So I’m wondering why the heck were these massive metal behemoths ever used? They might have come in handy in defending Loken, and certainly Ulduar.
