About the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj Boost
Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (AQ40) is the 40-player Phase 5 raid in Silithus and the second-to-last raid tier in Classic Era. The instance contains nine main bosses ending with C'Thun, an Old God whose final phase remains one of the most iconic fights in WoW history. The Tier 2.5 sets — Conqueror, Protector, Vanquisher — drop across boss kills and slot above Tier 2 from BWL on most specs.
C'Thun's stomach phase is the technical centerpiece of the raid. Random raid members are teleported into the boss's stomach where they must DPS down giant tentacles before being expelled back into the main fight. Coordination across forty players, healing under Eye Beam pressure, and DPS rotation through Dark Glare phases test every aspect of raid execution. The BuyTheWin AQ40 Boost runs the full encounter on a coordinated roster.
C'Thun's three trinket / cloak / ring drops are Phase 5 BiS for healers (Amulet of the Fallen God), physical DPS (Cloak of the Fallen God), and spell DPS (Ring of the Fallen God) respectively. All three are heavily contested loot — Loot Priority routes them directly to your character if they drop.
FAQ
How long does the AQ40 clear take?
A coordinated 40-player team clears the full nine-boss raid in three to four hours including trash. Self-play summons begin at the start of the agreed window; you stay tagged through every kill for loot eligibility.
Are the C'Thun trinkets BiS?
Amulet of the Fallen God is BiS healer neck through Phase 5. Cloak of the Fallen God is one of the strongest physical-DPS cloaks pre-Naxx. Ring of the Fallen God is spell-DPS BiS for several caster specs through Naxxramas. All three are highly contested in pug runs.
