The new pet battle dungeon,
Pet Battle Challenge: Stratholme
, is currently live on the Rise of Azshara 8.2 PTR. This pet battle dungeon, like previous dungeons
Pet Battle Challenge: Deadmines
,
Pet Battle Challenge: Wailing Caverns
and
Pet Battle Challenge: Gnomeregan
, takes place in a special pet battle version of their respective dungeons. This time, we're going to
Stratholme
!
Stratholme
was originally added in Classic. It is an undead infested dungeon, that is now in two parts, with the final bosses being
Balnazzar
in the Main Gate wing, and
Lord Aurius Rivendare
in the Service Gate wing. The original final boss used to be
Baron Rivendare
, until Cataclysm.
Lord Aurius Rivendare
currently drops the
Deathcharger's Reins
, a highly sought after mount.
To start the pet battle dungeon, you do not have to have completed any previous pet battle dungeons. Note as this is PTR scenery and requirements may change.
This dungeon, like previous, has two separate difficulties:
Normal
You can heal or revive your pets any time
You must have at least one level 25 pet to unlock
Challenge
You cannot heal or revive your pets with
Battle Pet Bandage
or
Revive Battle Pets
at any time
You must have at least 15 pets levelled to 25 to unlock
Have finished the normal difficulty of the Stratholme pet battle dungeon
Getting to the Stratholme Pet Battle Dungeon
To get to the Stratholme pet battle dungeon, simply visit
Radek Fuselock
in Dazar'alor, located next to
Happy Holaua

Sean Wilkers
, who is outside the instance portal for Stratholme (Service Entrance, marked as Eastwall Gate on the map). You will then get a quest,
Tiny Terrors of Stratholme
, to complete the Stratholme pet battle dungeon, and rewards you with
Ultimate Battle-Training Stone
and unlocks
Manapoof Link: Stratholme
, allowing you to teleport to Stratholme from Manapoof, located next to either quest giver in your factions capital city, or Dalaran.

Shadowy FIgure 1: Oh, great. The "hero" is here. Ugh, this assignment is going to take forever.
Shadowy Figure 2: Shut up. She trusted us to complete this task, and this time, we will! With the power of science!
Shadowy FIgure 1: But she's always giving me orders and sending me on stupid missions. What about me? What about what I want to do?
Shadowy Figure 2: All you do is whine. If you don't put a lid on it, I'll put a lid on you! Now brace yourself! It's time for stage two!
Shadowy Figure 1: You're worse than she is. Why do i even talk to you?
Shadowy Figure 2: Because I'm a genius! This piece of junk is taking too long. What if i remove the regulations and crank it to the max?
Blackmane is a two phase fight, with interesting model changes!
