Notes

• As suggested by the above dialogue, defeating Maloriak will earn the player the title "Slayer of Stupid, Incompetent and Disappointing Minions". This is based on an identical title from World of Warcraft World of Warcraft (WoW) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) created by Blizzard Entertainment. The game was first released Nov. 2004, and has since seen six expansions: The Burning Crusade (2007), Wrath of , obtained by defeating Maloriak on heroic difficulty. Be that as it may, the Hearthstone version is somewhat more limited, resulting only in the player`s name being replaced by the title for the duration of the Atramedes The subject of this article is part of theBlackrock Mountain adventure.

Poor Maloriak. Turns out that Nefarian⃢₀ₙs attempt to fuse the power of a dragonkin with the brilliant mind of an alchemist resulted in a stupid, incompetent, and disappointing minion. Despite his deficiencies (by admittedly unrealistic dragon standards), Maloriak⃢₀ₙs crazed alchemical concoctions make him a most noxious foe.

"There can be no disruptions! Mustn`t keep the master waiting, mustn`t fail again!"

From Wowpedia:

Maloriak is a boss in Blackwing Descent who can be found in the Fleshrender`s Workshop, off to the east of the Vault of the Shadowflame.

Dungeon Journal

The human Malory was a bright young alchemist until he was kidnapped by Nefarian Nefarian Set: Blackrock Mountain Type: Minion Subtype: Dragon Rarity: Legendary Cost: 9 Attack: 8 Health: 8 Abilities: Battlecry, Generate Tags: Class-related, Random, Spell-generating Battlecry: Add 2 random spells to your hand (from your opponent s class).They and fused with the corpse of a dragonspawn. The result - Maloriak - is a bumbling minion who possesses only a dull of his former intelligence.
