If you can get a higher level to run you through the questlines Panther Mastery (https://classicdb.ch/?quest=190), Tiger Mastery (https://classicdb.ch/?quest=185), Raptor Mastery (https://classicdb.ch/?quest=194), and Big Game Hunter (https://classicdb.ch/?quest=208) you will get a very solid set of gear for a 29 twink hunter or for any other leather class.

If you fail at killing this cat on your first attempt, but get him below 50%, the two ads will remain with him even when he resets. Two additional cats will then spawn when his health crawls below 50% again.

This means that if you're going alone, you basically only have one shot at taking him down.

At the time i had to complete this quest i had no coords so i found him this way :

Starting from booty bay, you go north into stv.
At the ziata ' jay ruins, you go straight west, up to a small mountain (hill ) and in middle of there is the white saber.

Its not that hard to find, but with those coords you guys give its really hard, lol those coords can be everywhere on the map -_-

If you fail, or someone else has, you can pull him and run away and then kill his adds. He resets before his adds.

If you can't kill him on the first try, don't even bother. When he gets down to 20% life or so, he spawns 2 additional lvl34 panthers. Now, these panthers do not despawn if he kills you or you break combat, so every failed attempt creates 2 new panthers. I'm sitting 60yds away, watching 10 lvl34 panthers swarming around him, waiting for my lvl60 buddy to come help....

Bangalash is just a little SE of Mizjah Ruins, which is E of Grom'gol Base Camp and S of Lake Nazferiti (West bank). He is on a small hill.

Bangalash will let out a "massive roar, calling for aid" when he gets low on health, this is NOT a summon of minions.&nbsp It is a call to friends, similiar to the screecher raptors in Wetlands, so all it does is bring any other cat types around to help him.&nbsp There are usually a couple stealthed panthers who will jump in at this point but you can get around this by "pulling" him away from the area a little bit or killing them first.&nbsp I fought him on the back edge of his platau (the west side near Se'Jib) and nothing else came to help him when he called for aid.

I know everyone loves tlocs but for those who don't have addons or prefer landmark-type directions find the Ziata'Jai Ruins on your map and find the mini platau across the road from it.&nbsp He is a white cat type animal 43 elite, there are Stranglethorn Tigress and Shadowmaw Panther in the area, so either pull these first or fight him away from their paths.

Pretty straightforward, I had +22 sta from food and beer, frost trap I lured 1 panther into, feared him 2 times, pet died, but I was able to finish him off. FDed to escape guards. Did not use any pots/gadgets.

Also despite what yellow comment above sid, he does pull 2 guards out of nowhere. Dunno what happens if there are mobs nearby, but when area is clear, 2 shadow panthers will spawn. I have track hidden, I checked. If you kill king without killing guards, and vanish/FD they will despawn.

King B makes a great looking pet, especially if you are a Night Elf riding a striped nightsaber mount! At level 43 I went and tamed King B, then killed the rest of the mobs in the area. King B respawned after a couple of minutes and I used my new King B pet to finish the quest - very satisfying!

Solo as a 41 lock. The trick is (locks only) to send Voidwalker in and let him take about 5-6 hits.

If you have amplify curse use that. Throw curse of agony, curruption, siphon life and then immolate. Dont launch any nukes you need your void to hold the aggro as long as possible. as your Dot's start to drop reload them fast.

Soon he will call two lvl 33 panthers to help.(DO NOT FEAR ANYTHING!) cast dots on both of them and start to pull them off one by one. By now your voidwalker will be close to dead. Sacrifice him for that 1k dmg shield and pray that this bastard drops.

Died 3 times trying this. I feared the adds with howl of terror. DONT do this or if you are like me you will have 6 tigers biting you in the ass.

Well, here is how to do it as a warrior:

- Clear up all those little cats arround him.

-Build up to 100 Rage on a minor cat.

-Eat something to get your HP back to 100%

-Charge Bangalsh

-Activate Retaliation

-Keep spamming all abilitys possible

-When the adds spawn, fear them (bandage if necessary)

-Kill Bangalash and run away

-Return and pick up his head

Hint: It really helps to have one of these bombs that fear away wild animals. They will even fear away Bangalash itself, not only the adds (gives you time to bandage). They can be gotten by doing this quest: https://classicdb.ch/quest=705

I hope this helps

Solo'd at 43 for me, took some time though. If youre a hunter, I'd suggest first killing the shadowmaw panthers or w/e theyre called (the ones that are stealthed) before trying to attack King B. Then, kill off his panther guardians, send your pet to aggro all three of them (2 guardians and King B) Kill the two guardians but your pet should be dead after those two are dead and King B will have alot of health left so Just Feign Death out of range somewhere rez pet, regain mana, heal pet, etc. Attack King B with no interference :)

When Bangalash gets close to half dead, he spawns 2 33 panthers to throw in the mix. I tried killing them off first then going after him but he just respawned them again. Could do it without the respawns.&nbsp A 44 ice mage, died 2 times. Need help.

At lvl 45, I had no trouble soloing King Bangladesh. I set my Immolation Trap and pulled him to me with Serpent Sting as well as Concussion shot with a few Arcane in there. Once he got to me, I hit ScatterShot then I let pet take over and I backed off. I used my Rapid Shot and reapplied Serpent Sting for the last little bit.

I did not let the adds distract me. I stayed on King Bang. and when He was dead, I feigned death and waited for the area to clear. I looted my trophy (head) and off I went.

Hope this helps someone else.

Where can I find King Bangalash?

Rating: +2 [-] [+]

By Anonymous on 01/12/2007 (Patch 2.0.4)

1: He will be found roaming the top of the small hill at about 38,36.

2: There will be regular stranglethorn tigers/tigresses roaming around the base of the hill and on the upper sides as you approach.

3: On the flat top of the hill (mesa?) will be 2-4 more tigers and 2-5 shadowmaws in stealth mode. Clear these before you move in to take on Bangalash.

4: Any Tiger or Shadowmaw left alive, or that spawns during the fight, will move to assist Bangalash.

5: A little bit into the fight with Bangalash, or when he drops to about 60% health, 2 regular panthers will spawn right next to him and immediately attack whoever his target is.

6: Each time I've fought him he has started out with about 3K HP, so he's doable but can take quite a few hits and DOTs before he finally goes down.

I hope you find this info of use,
Good Hunting!

This is way easier then people make it seem, I solo'd with my 42 hunter with a pet that was still level 1 (rebelious). My pet didn't die no potions or anything.

Soloed this as a 40 frost mage. Bangalash himself isn't that hard, it's the two adds that might give you trouble. Basically, you need to kite him along the road, using every and any opportunity to sink in a Frostbolt/Fire Blast. Save all your roots/aoe snares (basically, Frost Nova and Cone of Cold) to control the adds and Blink away. The adds are beasts, which makes them polymorphable. Kill Bangalash, loot the item and run (or kill off the adds).
Might be a good idea to make a mana gem as well as bring a mana potion. Full frost is always the easiest since you'll have Ice Barrier by lv40. Investing a point in Cold Snap is always a good idea, since this insures an extra Frost Nova when needed (resist/screw up).
Might take a bit of experimenting and planning, pulled it off on my third try I think.

Did this one solo as a 43 NE druid. Took three attempts. Very tough. I had to use every bit of mana for heals and shifting (bear), in addition to two healing potions.

The key is circling the perimeter and clearing the immediate area of invisible panthers and tigresses before engaging Bangalash, that is half of the battle. If you don't do that... well, it won't be pretty.

After the area was cleared, I proceeded to kill off his two minions before having Bangalash all to myself. (yes Bangalash will attack as soon as you hit one of his minions but I ignored him)
