Top 10 Most Dangerous Mobs In Hardcore Classic

- In classic hardcore, there is an addon called deathlog, which tracks which mobs are killing the most players. Back in September I took a screencap of the most deadly mobs, and in this video, we'll be over these most dangerous mobs and explaining why they are so deadly.

The ceramic entourage in loch modan is also a big threat
😂😂😂
I head porcelain, but thought “I know the pig adjective word is Porc-something so maybe it is porcelain…?”
@@Aaronmillager porcine
@@Aaronmillager but I’m 90% Hiru does it as a bit.
Porcine
"Porcelain Entourage", hate it when my ceramics start attacking me.
Pray to the Porcelain God they don't kill you 😂
could just be your piggy bank getting escorted to the IRS? :p
next time i see a group of girls go to the bathroom in a bar imma call them the porcine entourage.
Could be a skibidi toilet attack…
I thought it was cute and funny he read it that way. To be fair, "porcine" as a way to describe pigs isn't exactly commonly used these days.
Harvest watcher doesn't just "appear" to have a larger aggro radius because it is higher level, it absolutely does, even compared to mobs at the same level. Almost any mob with "watcher, tracker, sentry" in the name or beasts with "starving" in their name aggro from further away than other mobs at the same level. Go ahead and test it with harvest watchers, or the blackrock trackers in redridge or the starving hyenas and buzzards.
Same way many mobs with "slayer" have an execute or mobs with "trapper" use nets.
starving mobs also have the mechanic of being able to spot stealth much easier
these videos always have the absolute minimum depth when it comes to details. For example, a very common way to kill Princess is to use the fence right next to her to kite
I hate those hyenas in the barrens so much.
Man I’ve been playing for a long time and never caught on to this. I knew the harvest watchers 100% had a longer aggro radius but not the rest of what you laid out. Thanks 👍🏻 still learning after almost 20 years
@@Bheckler24These videos are fun and inarguably pretty basic. They're like Little Caesar's pizza: hot and ready to eat. Don't think about the quality.
Cool fact: son of Arugul in silver pine forest is #9 Deadliest mobs for horde. Level 24 elite that patrols in a common questing area. The normal mobs in this area are around lvl 13, which makes any encounter with him almost certain death.
It fun when u somehow get away from but most the time u do it give u that night gift of its.
This thing was a bane of all Undead stubborn enough to level in Tirisfal instead of the Barrens even back in classic, I swear it had an AI coded to constantly run into you at the worst moments 😂
Since there's near to no Horde mobs on the list, I'll throw in that Bael Dun and Boulder Lode mine in the Barrens. Venture Co. Officers hit hard, spawn tightly packed, and have a hamstring. Bael Dun dwarfs are close packed and have a few different deadly abilities like a three hit windfury. The Silithids also spawn additional mobs and the collectable spawns two every time.
In Stonetalon, collecting the eggs spawns two spiders as well, and with every spider kill there's a chance to spawn a level 26-27 matriarch, which is 5 levels over all other spiders.
The slithids absolutely beat my arse when I started playing for the first time, like the slithids, the grubs and the protectors, too much lmao
@@jadewelling3459 Grab buffs from the bloodshards dropped by the razorfen mobs. You're intended to have them when doing this quest, especially the thorns buff.
I haven't played WoW in years at this point, but your videos are like comfort food to me.
Hogger should get an honourable mention as well as the dragon whelps in Redridge Mountains... Defias Pillager PTSD all over again
Every time I see a black whelp, regardless of my level, I get an eye twitch! 🤣
Porcine "Poor-seen" of, relating to, or otherwise having the characteristics of a pig. (2000IQ play to purposefully mispronounce it to get more engagement in the comments)
You should do a list on dungeon mobs that kill the most. I want to see you explain gnomergons middle path. 😂
Ran gnomer 4x already so far. Haven’t had a single problem so far. Simply a skill issue.
Looking at the deathcount was pretty scary but the mines literally cant kill you if you have your monitor open
@@brandoncastellano1858 not really. Has nothing to do with skill. It's a knowledge thing. Either you know about the horrible z-axis aggro radius and hug the wall or you don't and pull both floors of the entire hallway. Or you could just be severely overleveled and not even know about it in the first place, which if anything makes it seem, ironically, like you have the skill issue
Something that probably increases the Wendigo's rank in this list despite its non-running behaviour is that unlike other cave humanoids, it's the only mob type in its cave. So while the Stonesplinter Seers are the biggest threat of the Loch Modan trogg caves, Stonethumpers can steal some of there kills. By contrast, if you die in Wendigo cave, you died to a Wendigo.
There’s some Young Wedigos in the cave too
@@brandoncastellano1858 I think he's still on to something. If you look at the spawns for young wendigo on wow head they are basically outside the mouth of the cave, not inside. Only like 2-3 spawns where a young wendigo is actually inside the cave. Meanwhile regular wendigo spawn EVERYWHERE all over the cave at a MUCH higher density. If you are talking about the actual cave itself, I don't think it would be a stretch to say the ratio of wendigo to Young Wendigo is like 99:1. Meanwhile the trogg caves are split much more evenly in terms of mob type density, usually 1:1 or 2:1
@@DivineBanana that’s pretty fair.
It's interesting how the top 9 of 10 are alliance mobs and not horde.
Because like 9 out of 10 players are alliance
Because 9 out of 10 deaths in WoW are Alliance
@@justinbayly594yeah, the twelve year olds playing alli die a lot
Hahaha the “porcelain entourage.” I love Hiru. “Porcine,” my friend, “porcine.”
Brethren your videos bring me so much joy. Thanks for bringing this niche artform to light on such a near and dear topic such as WoW
I think the Harvest Watchers do have an unusually high aggro radius. I was doing the quest for them when they were green, and they would just randomly aggro to me from 20+ yards away as I was pulling them with frostbolt. It just doesn't happen with other mobs.
Learning that the Watchers were immune to pet taunt was a shock. At least I can still stun them.
Love seeing more hardcore content. A level 20+ version of this list would be interesting to see too since all of these and the ones on the deathlog screenshot are low level
Your utmost confidence in saying "porcelain" instead of "porcine" reminds me of Benedict Cumberbatch calling penguins "pengwin".
nice vin, maybe make one that show the top 10 kill list/most dangerous for the 30-40, 50-60 range?
I was just thinking the same thing. Would love to see the changes at different ranges
For the kobold miners, there’s another explanation.
If you only do quests without any special grind, you usually get to goldshire at lvl 5 where you get the 2 quests for the kobolds. And in the cave, some of the kobold miners are lvl 7 which gives them a big edge.
It is much safer to either grind before or do the lovers quest so you can get lvl 6 which is a big step up for most classes (rank 2 on main spells).
You can also do the quests in the kobold mine at the east which has the advantage of having much less competition.
I've noticed a similar thing on Horde in durotar. A lot of ppl die at lvl 6 to the tigers and raptors in the echo isle or the Kul Tiras Marines/sailors because theirs like 2-3 quests in each location but the mobs are all lvl 7-8, its usually best to not do either until 7 but there aren't many good alternatives like in Elwyn w the lovers quest, a lot of ppl just grind the pygmy crabs for the quest item (but the pygmies have only have a 15% drop chance compared to the bigger crabs 30-50% so honestly its more efficient to grind that quest at 7 to)
Main point being its always that first lvl out of the starting zone that is one of the toughest ones
And that's why you play like this in HC. If you start in durotar you do the start zone, then the two delivery Q's to Razor Hill, bind your HS to the inn there, run up to Org, zepp over to Tirisfal and do the start zone there, Deathknell, that should get you to lvl 7 roughly, but you'll just burn thru those quests due to level.
Then keep questing in Undead zone until you're almost done. Can leave the family Crypt and the last scarlet mission. should get you to lvl11-12. Then HS back to Razor Hill and just crush everything left in Durotar.
Then go back to Tirisfal and clean up and HS back again, picking up the delivery Q's for XR, head to Barrens and you'll get a nice head star arriving there at lvl 14-15. Run the start Q's and then head to TB opening up the FP's, getting the two Q's for Ragefire Chasm. If you start as undead, you just do it the other way around.
That will keep you ahead of the lvl curve for a long time if you also mix in some Q's in Silverpine with Barrens. Never do anything orange or red in Q way and go back and forth between zones doing green and yellow Q's. Might not be as fast but it will be very safe and after all, the main point in HC isn't speed, it's surviving :D@@SuleimanTheIndifferent
Think of the greatest challenge for a warrior. A lich? Laughable. A dragon? Child's play. What really puts fear into the heart of even the greatest hero is hearing these words:
"YOU NO TAKE CANDLE!" 👺
I love how a majority of these are alliance oriented/zone and low level mobs.
the miner quests outside of deadmines, but in the deadmines cave is a pretty big death trap too.
My first HC death on offical was a total party kill due to the undead. We were at the bottom, had a very nasty pull, went to go to the top and all the undead respawned and just had a massive amount of them alive. It wasn’t good.
I think naming Westfall as the most deadly zone is a false positive.
It's very likely that those mobs are so deadly simply because it's also the most popular zone. I've now successfully leveled through Westfall 4 times whereas I've died twice to f'ing troggs in Loch Modan on respawns. Westfall is more open and easier to escape.
Also most of your testing (like dmg from fireballs and taking harvester hits) you did on a character that was quite underleveled. Most people, even new players, don't do the Harvesters (lvl 14-15) before they're at most a level below the lowest. Same for Pillagers. I've never seen anyone trying to attempt them at level 12. And the biggest killer about them for melees is actually the frost armor that slows.
These stats also just show, that Alliance is extremely popular (because racials) and that the alliance zones are more in depth than the Horde equivalents (sadly) in classic.
Another big thing is that human is by far the most popular race, so all the dangers of eary human leveling also have their numbers padded by the highest density of players going through it all
Great video!
Most of these are in Alliance areas. Conclusion: Alliance skill issue. :)
thanks for another cool video. 🙂👍
more like: "Top 10 Most Dangerous Mobs In Hardcore Classic below lvl 15"
they're the most dangerous because of their kill count, if we talk about most dangerous mobs we can just put some elite dragon in the dream portals lol
@@RunehearthCL they are definitely not dangerous since no one would get any close to them on their levelling. lmao
5:15
Yes it isn't balanced
It is feral
Would be fun to have a video split by levels, 0-20, 2-40, 40-60, 60+. Cause in this case it was all low level zone 😂
And almost only alliance zones 😃
@@krisman97 except skull rock 💀 🪨
@@DivineBanana shows again that the playerbase favors alliance races
@@krisman97 not necessarily just the races, could be the alliance zones, cities, quests etc.
It's no secret that alliance zones were developed first, and given more love, care, attention and detail. They basically went back and rushed the horde zones after finishing the alliance zones. And I think it shows. Atleast speaking from personal experience I can say I enjoy leveling up an alliance alt is a lot more fun for me than horde alts.
Don't get me wrong, there is still a lot of cool stuff and charm in the horde zones, but alliance zones just feel more finished.
@@DivineBananaThe very first one was the human starting area and therefore received lots of love. The others not so much. I would say Elwynn>Tirisfal>Dun Morogh=Mulgore>Durotar>Teldrassill. NE start is the worst of the lot. Melenas, The Relic quests, the harpies, Ursal and Ferocitas are absolutely merciless. Then Darkshore is horrendous: long, dark, depressing with deadly escort quests and loads of hyperspawn spots. The alternative is the Wetlands gauntlet making the NEs the most far removed from other hubs (Forsaken have the zeppelin at their door step).
The key to avoiding these deaths is to grind out extra levels before you ever encounter them. You can zoom through the Kobold miners at level 8 instead of going in to a death trap at 6. A little grinding goes a long way.
I just follow ding80's classic guide, theres only a few spots where I choose to ignore the guide and either dungeon or grind my way past certain quests.
(mostly chok sul, the elwynn/WF murloc quest, and red ridge elite quests unless I can find a group, or like the paladin weapon quest)
If you were to exclude humanoid mobs inside a cave with hyper spawns (whether they be low level of not) I wonder what this list would look like? You could just lump Hyper Spawns as a mechanic as the number one cause of death and call it a day since that accounted for at least half of the list. Thanks Blizzard.
Who thought hyperspawn in hc was a good idea? Why haven't they fixed it yet when it's so obviously bad?
We will probably never know...
I guess murloc shamans in every area should be mentioned as well. Always running away, healing themselves and have nasty lighting bolts ^^
fun video! u should do these for class specific, race specific, and level range specific. that would be fun!
This video was very well put together and a fun watch. But something to add is the reason these numbers are so high for these mobs specifically is because a large majority of players are on alliance side in HC. Would be great to see the numbers if alliance deaths vs horde deaths as I’m betting there’s just as deadly of mobs on horde side early zones but without the numbers to back it up since horde is just vastly outnumbered in HC
Oh god, jumped into HC recently and the Stonesplitter Seer was the reason I died on my second character last weekend. I actually would have lived had I just polymorphed it and ran but I panicked and thought I could run out of it's casting range. However, the biggest problem with Loch Modan was that there were SO many players doing the quests relevant to the troggs that everything was hyper-spawning.😥
Nice video! It would be nice tosee a similar one, but exclusding all the low level mobs. It's natural that most mobs causing deaths are going to be in overpopulated level 1-15 zones, but thsoe are no biggie because you can just reroll the character and be back there in a wiffy. The interesting thing is to know what creatures can easily ruin a 2week+ hardcore run.
I'm surprised those Centaurs from Desolace aren't on the list.
I got to 44 on my Warrior but died on Monday doing that escort quest where you have to free the caged goblin from the camp.
The mobs are like level 37-38 and me being 44, I thought it would be a piece of cake.
However, these centaurs had a cheese up their sleeve, which was to chain disarm my character, and the last pack you fight outside of the camp which had 3 centaurs and 2 dogs ended up killing me despite being 6-7 levels higher because I was nearly constantly reduced to just my fists for fighting.
sounds to me like you didnt train unarmed/weapon chain.
@@damackabet.4611 Yeah, I did neglect unarmed that in run. I usually train it in anticipiation for enemies like Defias Looters, but I completely forgot the Centaurs can disarm and hadn't bothered training it since level 15 lol
the only one on this list I've died too is Princess Entourage. I got too cocky and thought my potion and damage would be enough to solo it myself as a level 10 and I got unlucky. All the other mobs, especially the cave ones... lets just say I have Ultra Instinct in those caves. No way I'm going to die like that!
I'd be interested in what you personally think so of the most dangerous mobs are, considering it seems like very few people make it pased some of the lower levels to encounter and, die to later mobs. You make excellent lists so I trust your opinion
The murlocs south west at westfall around 19 - 20lv are dangerous AF too. It's very easy for them to chain pull and on top of that they have a frost nova that they cast if you try to escape.
The Voidwalker Minion deaths are not only Gazz'uz, but also all the apprentices, including the ones near Fizzle
I'm surprised the ghost ship in Wetlands didn't make it, but that's a little higher level and a lot of people probably skip it.
It was 15 years ago, but I still remember my first WoW death. It was in Stone Cairn Lake in Elwynn Forest while on a pally quest, IIRC.
If it tracked falling deaths in under city, more than likely that elevator would be the most dangerous mob in the game lol.
If you know you know ❤
I thought the little flying dragons from redridge mountain would be on the list as well. Crazy fire damage there
You should've mentioned that the Defias Pillagers have frost armor as well, slowing and reducing attack speed of opponents
I've been playing this game for 17 years and just now learned that the running in fear mechanic is specific to humanoid mobs...
There's a reason why they named one of the NA realms "Defias Pillager" haha
That bugged cave in Thousand Needles = guaranteed death
i died to the harvest watchers in westfall not too long ago but i'm glad to see i'm not the only one XD
New top two: 1) Kungen healing your group and 2) Mitch Jones tanking for you.
I will never understand the weirdness that is people liking the grinding crap nature of Classic WoW and thinking "I want it even harder, and more of a grind" >
It would be really helpful to do one of these videos for 'unknown deadly mobs'. For instance, mobs that mind control, reflect damage, pvp flag you, silence/stun packs, knockback off ledges, cockroaches that pull adds, or mobs that see through invisible.
Or even another video about the most deadly pulls in dungeons.
Are there any mobs which mc you in classic? The only one I can think of is the centaurs in ashenvalebut they had their mc nerfed?
@@archvaldor UD strat boss, sunken temple boss, some rare in Arathi Highlands, and quite a few others
@@archvaldora quest mob in silver pine has mc
I find it really interesting just how many of these are alliance-side mobs. It makes me wonder if this is because of a majority of players being alliance side, or if the devs were thinking something like "the horde already has Barrens chat, they suffer enough".
Was not expecting the duel logs voice on wow content lol
Thought id make a quick note, if you’re fighting the Seers or the Pillagers as a warrior simply just shield bash and hamstring and you’ll be fine, also save rage for your next shield bash rather than spending it on heroic strike. The only real danger is if your shield bash misses, but even then you can still take at least two fire-blasts.
I was expecting the Harvest watcher to be alot higher up on this list, They have some insane aggro distance even if u happen to out lvl the zone.
Hi Hirumaredx! Really liked the vid but anyone who has the addon knew most of these were dangerous.
Any chance you could do a vid where maybe the minimum level of mobs is 20 or something?
I Feel like that'd be a more interesting list personally.
Much love for your top 10's!
Some other ideas could be;
"Top 10 most dangerous mobs in dungeons"
"Top 10 most dangerous mobs in high level zones"
"Top 10 least dangerous mobs" maybe? Idk just throwing some ideas around ^^
Alliance zones are just infinitely more dangerous. Most of the monsters were created when the game was still expected to be played like Everquest, where everyone grouped up outside of towns, that the open world was not meant to be soloable. Horde monsters by contrast were all designed much later in the game's design, which had changed to all be solo'd with lots of space between them, outside of some elite bosses.
I would be interesred in a similiar Video but with the most dangerous mobs at higher level, maybe top 5 every 10 level range.
Since all but one of these were alliance specific, you should do one for the Horde side. I'm doing a horde right now, got a war at 20 atm. I see SO SO SO many people pre-level 10 bite it to Fizz Darkclaw and Bayne and the lift in Thunderbluff/Undercity.
Official WoW channel uploaded today a video with this same data (with their numbers ofc) so it's interesting to see the similarities from what they can collect and what the addon information provides
If your starter zone is near IF or SW, you have 2 starter areas to quest in, so you can make sure you only fight green mobs. Only fight yellow mobs if you have good gear or they are lower level than you.
Defias Pillager killed my first HC attempt
I felt so dumb because I knew that they were dangerous, and it was the last one I needed for my quest.
Best way I’ve found to fight princess is play a class that can attack over fences since those things are impenetrable walls between you and the mob since they need to run around it but you can jump over it.
These mobs are on the alliance starting zone areas, no wonder they are considered most dangerous
Hiramudex, I am proud of you. He said “slime I’m proud of you”. And uzi I am proud of you, he said “slime, I’m proud of you”
POR-CINE "Poor-scene". Good god man.
Well. Some of these are helpful for me. Since ill be doing a couple hardcore alts to test the waters (one of which is gonna be a troll, so...)
No Snagglespear? Bro is the goat when it comes to destroying low level players.
Harvest watcher, the original fel reaver. Those things been killing me forever
I understood the need of hyper spawns in classic (still not a fan tho) but doing that in hardcore is the most bs thing ever. some mobs respawn literally instantly after killing them and trap you in a fight loop.
I wish that we could see these per capita. Like yeah tons of level 7s die. But that doesn’t mean you’re super likely to die because we don’t know the denominator. There are probably some random mobs in Hillsbrad or whatever which are WAY more deadly
Hiru the man
I believe the defias pillagers and trappers were overtuned because early wow developers intended moonglade to be an unofficial part of the deadmines where players would pass through moonglade and the underground hideout to reach the instance as a group. it was pretty common in vanilla for instances to have large groups of overtuned non-elite mobs stationed outside
A way early wow was like EverQuest
Voidwalker miniom has moved up to the deadliest minion on horde, and second highest kill count behind the kobolds
Would be interesting to see a list like this for later levels
It would be interesting to see this same list but for say levels 40+
So alli list with a small node to skull rock… should do the horde list next and add hogger 😂
the kurzen elite (non elite) mobs in STV...good lord
If you pull princes directly after spawn, the smaller pigs dont aggro
Westfall or Ghostlands, which are scarier to level up, I'm not talking about the environment but the experience.
In my own opinion they are tied.
Pillagers and other casters were meant to hit hard. They have lower hp, lower armor, and they have to channel the spell. How many melee hits within a cast? It's not 5x if you account for the damage from melee during the casting, but more like 2,5x. Dangerous but perfectly fine and was absolutely intentional.
Hogger should've made it on the list tbh, hes the deadliest npc in wow history, hogger has canonically killed more people than arthas 😭
W video slime proud of you
i dislike heavily when they nerf npc just because the quests are hard. It only rewarding when you complete a hard quest
I'd love to see a list about fan favorite dungeons. Would really hit me in the nostalgia nerves 🙏
Reasons I died in WoW:
1) Hyperspawns
2) Blizzard trolling with mob level and overtuning.
Sounds about right.
Always new westfall was for the real ones
Windigo also do a frost breath attack which you failed to mention.
You not take our candle !
we really gonna ignore all the HC deaths in barrens from people being chased and hunted and killed like a dog by plainstriders
I really expected the Stranglethorn cave with the Humanoids
AYO!!!!! 00:20 seconds in, that's me!! :D I've made it mah! im famous!
9:59 you didn't mention that they also have Frost Armor. This slows melee attack speed and also movement speed. People often die to the Defias Pillager because they realize they can''t win but because they are slowed, they can't escape in time and get sniped by the fireball. Also, melee classes like Warriors or Rogues have less DPS on them as well. Just a small oversight you didn't mention that makes them even deadlier.
Pillagers were so annoying when I started playing since half the time they were hiding behind a cart or something so you had no idea you were even fighting it when you pulled the mob on your side of the cart. Suddenly you had a fireball in your face and the next was already 1,3 seconds into being cast.
Turn on nameplates.
@@janitorizamped yeah, now there is no problem but when I was new I didn't know we could do that.
If you are range, you can kite pigs using fence
Shoutout to the boars in Dun Morogh.
#1 death cause as of yesterday by a long shot is falling. #2 used to be drowning but that’s gone down to 7th if I remember right.
It took me way to long to realize you were saying "high respawn" and not "high response" >
