Before the bosses in Zul Gurub there is one thing that needs to be dealt with; the “Paragon of Power” drops
from the Instance. To quote a member of my guild; “ZG will be the undoing of many an unorganized guild”, and this
statement holds true to those who go into Zul Gurrub without first deciding on “Loot Rules”.
The Paragons
of Power, are 3 different styles of items that drop off of enemies in Zul Gurrub. The first style of items is the green coins;
these coins are needed for class quests in Zul Gurrub (5 of one kind, and 5 of another kind per quest). Also, the coins are
used in reputation increasing quests (these quests requiring 1 of 3 different types of coins). The coins are usable by the
following classes for their respective quests:
· Bloodscalp: Priest, Rogue, Warrior, Warlock, Paladin, Shaman
· Gurubashi: Druid, Mage, Rogue, Warrior, Warlock, Shaman
· Hakkari: Priest, Druid, Rogue, Hunter, Warlock,
Shaman
· Razzashi: Priest, Druid, Mage, Rogue, Hunter, Shaman
· Sandfury: Priest, Druid, Mage, Hunter,
Warrior, Paladin
· Skullsplitter: Rogue, Hunter, Warrior, Warlock, Paladin, Shaman
· Vilebranch: Druid,
Mage, Rogue, Warrior, Warlock, Paladin
· Witherbark: Priest, Mage, Warrior, Warlock, Paladin, Shaman
·
Zulian: Priest, Druid, Mage, Rogue, Hunter, Paladin
After the coins of Zul Gurrub are the bijous. The bijous are similar
to the coins, except they are rare items and do not drop nearly as frequently, also you only need 2 bijous of one specific
color to complete a quest as opposed to 5 like the coins. Bijous can also be traded in for an honor token with the Zandalar
Trolls to increase reputation. The bijous are usable by the following classes for their respective quests:
·
Blue: Mage, Rogue, Shaman
· Bronze: Priest, Druid, Warrior
· Gold: Rogue, Paladin, Shaman
·
Green: Druid, Hunter, Warrior
· Orange: Priest, Mage, Warlock
· Purple: Rogue, Paladin, Shaman
·
Red: Druid, Warlock, Paladin
· Silver: Mage, Hunter, Shaman
· Yellow: Priest, Hunter, Warrior
Finally,
we are left with the “epic” level Paragons; the Primals. These items drop only off the bosses of Zul Gurrub (1
drop per boss, and completely random on which specific Primal may drop). Unlike the coins and bijous these items may not be
traded in for reputation, and are usable only for the class quests in Zul Gurrub. It is important to know which class can
make use of these items as they are “Bind on Pickup” unlike the other paragons. The Primal paragons are usable
by the following classes for their respective quests:
· Aegis: Priest, Rogue, Hunter
· Armsplint:
Rogue, Warrior, Shaman
· Bindings: Mage, Hunter, Paladin
· Girdle: Rogue, Warrior, Shaman
·
Kossack: Mage, Warrior, Warlock
· Sash: Priest, Druid, Warlock
· Shawl: Mage, Hunter, Paladin
·
Stanchion: Priest, Druid, Warlock
· Tabard: Druid, Paladin, Shaman
The above information is meant to give
you an idea of the different drops that come from Zul Gurrub, however it is up to you on how you and your guild / pickup raid
want to handle the distribution of these items.
One thing to be aware of with reputation gaining in Zul Gurrub is that
you will only gain faction off enemies from the Instance up to halfway through Revered. Once you become revered with the Zandalar
Trolls, you have to turn in honor tokens to get higher. It is suggested you do not turn in any items to the trolls for Honor
Tokens until you are revered and have stopped gaining reputation by killing MOBs
