Gamon Gamon is a level 90 elite named tauren found in Orgrimmar ' s inn in the Valley of Strength . According to the quest of which he was an objective , Gamon is employed by Tazan the troll , and was generally a drunkard . Gamon can crit a L80 cloth wearer for well into the 100K damage range . Notes . Gamon was always known as " The Boring Killer " . In other words people would kill him for fun whenever they wanted to . However , ever since the Cataclysm happened it seems as though Gamon changed with Orgrimmar . And with the Mists of Pandaria release , he is now level 90 , unlike his old level 12 . General Info . Unlike the other NPC characters in Orgrimmar , Gamon is attackable and many Horde players fall victim to his wrath after accidentally ( or ill - advisedly ) attacking him . In previous times , Horde players traveling through Orgrimmar or logging in from the inn would hear the sounds of a bar fight followed by a tauren death groan . Although it was probably an unintentional design quirk on Blizz ard ' s part , the player - driven murders by Gamon contribute to the atmosphere of Orgrimmar as being a rough place . Gamon was a famous mob because his deaths were frequent and public , as players often try to drag him out of the inn to be killed by him in front of the Auction House , where everyone can watch . Observing players frequently respond to Gamon ' s demise by targeting him and spamming emotes such as / cry , / mourn , / spit , / laugh , and / dance . Gamon was susceptible to mind control . Priest s enjoyed sending him out of the inn to run and jump around Orgrimmar ' s citizens . Gamon had a unique ability called which could be used on other players and NPCs that did no damage , but would punt them about 5 yards , this would also dismount a mounted player . Since patch 3 . 1 . 0 , this ability has been removed and since patch 4 . 0 . 3a Gamon is immune to all forms of crowd control , uses the abilities Charge and Battle Shout , and wrecks adversaries with his new two - handed axe . Gamon was treated by Horde players much the same way as Hogger is by Alliance players , if Hogger were a marauding champion of death and destruction . Players have kited Gamon to remote locations such as Thunder Bluff , Onyxia ' s Lair , and even Silithus . In addition , some level 80 players formed up raid s to attack Gamon as if he were a boss . Players also enjoy linking / items in chat , jokingly claiming that the items are epic / legendary drop s from Gamon . He did , however , drop typical level 12 loot ( in the words of one Blizzard poster : " MANY COPPER ! " ) Old Rogue Quest . Gamon ' s unfortunate fate came from the fact that he was involved in a Horde rogue class questline in which you must pickpocket him to receive a key . Any mob that a player can pickpocket must also be attackable . While this placed Gamon in the difficult situation of being constantly killed , it would also make the quest very difficult to complete since players might not have a good chance of actually finding Gamon alive . Gamon ' s re - spawn timer was 5 minutes after he is killed . In Wrath of the Lich King . Gamon is also involved in the end of the death knight introduction chain — — in which he promises to protect the citizens of Orgrimmar from the encroaching death knight . While all other NPCs will appear to the death knight , Gamon is actively and will chase after any death knight that comes too close , loudly yelling that he will save Orgrimmar . In addition , for the quest achievement , players will be sent back to a different ( phase d ) Orgrimmar under martial law and talk to Thrall . You will find Gamon , among other loyal Horde citizens , gathering in front of the bank . In Cataclysm . As of the beta , he has been updated to a level 85 elite with 1937K health . As of the recent updates in Patch 4 . 0 . 3 , Gamon is given a 2 - handed Axe , now has the ability to charge and is immune to all types of crowd control . Blizzard added this to stop players from kiting him around . Gamon is no longer directly involved in any quests although the version of him that appeared during can still be data - mined . In Mists of Pandaria . In Patch 5 . 3 , Gamon is under arrest by Kor ' kron Guards outside the Inn . He appears to be in a stand off and matched by 5 of the guards . In Patch 5 . 4 , Gamon was moved into a different area of Orgrimmar . He is kneeling infront of a Kor ' kron Overseer with three Kor ' kron Grunt s with guns pointed at him . In Siege of Orgrimmar , players fight with Gamon against General Nazgrim and Kor ' kron soldiers . In Warlords of Draenor . If the player has a tavern of any level built in their Garrison , Gamon may sometimes appear and offer a quest . The first completion of this quest rewards the player with Gamon ' s Braid , a toy that transforms the player into Gamon for 10 minutes . Trading Card .
