The Zandalar Tribe is a WoW Classic reputation faction which was big when the level cap was 60.

The reputation itself comes from the raid instance of Zul’Gurub, which is found in Stranglethorn Vale, northeast of Grom’Gol Base Camp.

Back in its hay-day, this instance was similar to BC’s Zul’Aman - littered with Trolls, and with a very similar type of landscaping (jungle/lush). Only, because there were 40-man raids in the Classic version of WoW, this one was a 20-man, like Zul’Aman is a 10-man in comparison to the 25-man raids that dominate the Burning Crusade scene.

It’s quite hard to get into a Zul’Gurub PUG these days, so without a group of friends you can bring in to thrash on things with you, it’s hard to get the reputation.

Hunter/Enchanter Friendly With Zandalar Tribe

This is good, because it let me purchase a reputation-based enchant for Brilliant Mana Oil, which not only restores mana per second, but boosts +heal rating, too.

Is Much Skill Needed Anymore?

Going through this instance with the PUG, I noticed a big thing:

The tanks and off-tanks still do special dances for handling the fights, such as splitting up mobs that may heal or assist one another.

The DPS just has to follow and watch Omen and not pull aggro, but as a DPS I didn’t even have to pay attention to what the tanks were doing, just follow kill order and keep up.

So, unless you’re a tank, ZG is pretty much a zerg-fest. Certainly, you don’t need more than 3 DPS, and I’ve heard of people going in with a trio party and doing just fine on some of the bosses too! (like the one that drops the turtle polymorph)

But alas, it’s hard to find friends who will go in. That’s okay, I got my enchant, that’s what I was aiming for!
