Gammothra, reference to classic Godzilla monsters Gamora and Mothra.

Comment by papercup

located at 45/61 inside the den all the way at the bottom.

Comment by Waxahachie

The cave entrance is at (47,55). Gammothra roams around the area (45, 61), as correctly noted above. He is at the bottom layer of the cave, slightly south of the central pool.

(A quick way in for Priests involves a lot of mind soothing, a quick levitate to the bottom and a short leg south till Gammothra)

Exact co-ords - 46.22, 62.50 just incase you were running around like me

Comment by 180842

Don't forget that you can use the Pouch of Crushed Bloodspore on ALL of the elietes in this cave, not just Gammothra.

Solo'd, 9/28/08 as a 71 Tauren Hunter, 51/11/0

This guy's wives are tough enough...all 69 Elites heheheheh,
but he looked mean.

So, I raid-buffed as best I could (Elix Maj Agil, Agil buff food, Scroll of Agil V), popped a Fel Mana Pot, Misdirected, Mended, sent Devilsaur, popped BW/RF (even though TBW seems to not be working on Beta right now).

Gammothra smacked my Barney around a bit. Whatever. I had to Feign once.

You don't need the Seed pouch thing, I forgot it anyway. Ferocity Exotics FTW.

this cave is extremely hard to find. i had quest helper downloaded and it showed me where the mob was which didn't help cause it was in the cave. even on the map where it shows the cave i couldn't find anything. your best bet is to walk off the edge around the area, and fall all the way down and die in the water below. walk back (not that far), rez and Gammothra is a quick walk away. then hearth out. hurts a bit, but it gets done.

I solo'd this as a 69 Blood Elf Warlock (8/46/5 demonology spec). Found him, sent in the felguard, Bloodspore, Immolate, Corruption, CoA, Soulfire, Shadowbolt, Wand, Drain Soul, loot. Easy quest and the reward from Hellscream is pretty nice for lower level guys leveling out in Borean.

Comment by 122011

***Cave is entrance at the north.

If you do like the say and just drop into the water he's on the right when u go out of the pool of water once you take a right he's in the left room.

Comment by 45015

I solo'ed the 71 Elite as a Frost Mage.

Then read the quest and saw you could make him weaker.

Doh!

Comment by 116011

The pouch can be used on any of the elites in there in case you aggro another by accident. Also, it's not a once use item - so it can be used as much as you need and can still be used after you kill the quest guy.

Comment by 237403

If you're a caster, you can begin casting while "channeling" the Pouch of Crushed Bloodspore for a nice headstart.

Comment by 233477

So if you're a silly arrogant "think-I'm-invincible" rogue like me, and try to solo it and fail, buuuut almost succeed (I tried several more times..>_>) Just try to remember to use the pouch sometime.

Comment by 348444

did it as a lvl 68 rogue, real easy if you use the pouch.
it makes him non elite and easy to kill.

Comment by 357648

Killing him was pretty easy, took no longer than 30 seconds. The real problem is getting out if you cant hearth.

Comment by DKDABU

Soloed the Elite as LvL 69 frost mage, and read on the bag after that it weaknes the mob, so use the bag, harder to do it as I did..

Comment by Cameltoe

the item works on any of these big elites inside the cave.

if you cant find him inside the cave and got a pet you can just /target Gammothra, send the pet and just follow the pet. easy soloable as a lvl 69 hunter

Comment by Einhander696

Apparently, if you start using the item but switch your target before it's done, your new target (including yourself, if you want) will gain the buff Bloodspore Poison. It gives the target the same animation as the weakened magnataurs, but seems to have no ill effect.

Comment by nkolesnik

I used the powder but it didn't weaken him, still no problem as a 69 prot pally.

Comment by noalarms

If you're rogue, I suggest to you stun him before use the spores.

When you use it, his life will decrease to only 9k. Easy to solo

Comment by 793843

I did Solo him with out using the bag as a 69 enhancement shaman^^ (but i did not use the bag on purpose for fun) he is Quite easy but u should use the bag cuz' takes much shorter time

Comment by 898889

I just went ahead and solo'd all the magnataurs all the way down and solod him , didnt even bother with the quest item. Hes not that hard, especially as a BM hunter such as myself.

i get more out of accepting challenges than the easy way out.

Comment by marshala

It seems as though if you shrink the elites, you shrink their rewards.

I killed 6 shrunken magnataurs, and the average drop was 10s.
I killed 6 full size magnataurs, and the average drop was 50s.

OK, you're not going to make millions, and this is hardly a scientific test under laboratory conditions!
Just passing on my findings.

Comment by BoJanglesJingles

Getting to this guy is such a hassle to a point where it's not even worth doing this.

Comment by MarkKehn

If you are new and doing this quest for the first time or if you have returned to the game after years away and doing it on a fresh alt you can weaken the big guys on the way down to your quest mob. The quest item will be in your quest tracker at this point.

When you get to your quest mob and use the item on him the quest item is removed from the quest tracker. I was going to work my way out so I pulled one of the big guys blocking my path before I realized the item was no longer in my quest tracker! Too late now, I had to run and turn on my invisibility to save myself. Then I hearthed out when the coast was clear.

It wasn't until I was out that I realized the quest item still existed and could have been used, but you need to use it from your bags or put it on your action bar after the main quest mob is killed. Oh well. Live and learn.

Comment by Ashley1392

The cave entrance is at 49,58. Don't waste your time like I did running up the hill lol

Links

Gammothra the Tormentor

Slay Gammothra and return the Head of Gammothra to Primal Mighthorn at the Bloodspore Plains in the Borean Tundra.

	Head of Gammothra (1)

Provided item:

	Pouch of Crushed Bloodspore (1)

Description

Magnataur live in prides, much like lions: one or two dominant males and several females along with their offspring. In the case of Gammoth, the magnataur den west of here, Gammothra is the leader. It is Gammothra that controls this magnataur population and therefore it is Gammothra that must be slain to prevent any type of magnataur uprising.

Take this pouch of crushed bloodspore flower to Gammoth. Use the powder from the pouch to weaken Gammothra and then slay him! Return his head to me as proof.
