Wailing Caverns
From the BlizzCon preview buildThe Classic dungeon in the Barrens, and the one with the biggest find of the beta: the re-itemized Fang set turns a druid's Cat Form into a serpent. Its upper bosses sat above the beta level cap.
Where this comes from
This dungeon was open in the beta, and it has been open in the live game since November 4. What follows comes from the beta client and from reports by those who were inside - not from a Blizzard announcement, and not yet checked against the live servers. Anything several sources report the same way independently is in; where they disagree, the disagreement sits under the open questions. A hotfix can change any of it.
Lord Serpentis
Drops the boots
Reported, not confirmed
-
One of the five set bosses
The pieces of Embrace of the Viper are spread across five encounters. See Lord Pythas for what the set does.
Source: Beta client and beta reports, build 1.60.1.69913 - reported the same way by several sources
Open questions
- Values of the piece in Forever
Loot
- Footpads of the Fang Feet, leather Reported the same way repeatedly One of the five pieces of Embrace of the Viper. The set is re-itemized in Forever; the old Classic bonuses are gone.
Where this comes from matters: which boss drops what is not in the client. The table for it (CollectableSourceEncounter) is empty and loot is handed out server-side. The assignment below therefore comes from players who ran the dungeon and reported what dropped - several sites carry the same figures, which argues against coincidence but does not prove they are independent of each other. The item itself is read from the client. Where it says the values differ, sources give different figures; take the name, not the number.
