Several single-player scenarios coming in 5.2 were recently open for testing. This includes some scenarios tied to unlocking new phases of the Isle of Thunder War Effort, but more importantly, a new scenario that lets you make hundreds of gold for 5 minutes work!
Troves of the Thunder King
Troves of the Treasure King
is a new single-player scenario in which players try to grab as much loot as they can from treasure chests before their 5 minutes are up. This is made harder by the presence of numerous challenging traps in the zone designed to attack and slow you down. In this video, Lore from
TankSpot
goes over the basics of what to expect.
To begin the scenario, you will need to give Taoshi a
Clé du palais de Lei Shen
, which can be found from
Trésor du roi-tonnerre
scattered around the
Île du Tonnerre
or looted from killing some rares.
Scenario Loot
The most common type of chest is
Coffre mogu
. This has the chance to contain:
Parchemins historiques en lambeaux
, used to purchase reputation insignias such as
Insigne supérieur de l'offensive du Kirin Tor
.
Breloque ancienne de bonne fortune
Pierre rituelle shan'ze
, used to summon elites.
Esprit de l'harmonie
Gold
Incantations:
Incantation de Deng
,
Incantation de Gura
,
Incantation de Haqin
,
Incantation de Vu
Coffre doré
s appear to have the same types of loot but in more quantities, as well as
Clé du trésor funéraire
. You'll need to open 10 in one run to complete a step of
La salle du trésor du roi-tonnerre
.
When the time runs out or you complete the run, you'll be taken to a special area filled with
Trésor funéraire de Lei Shen
. You can only open these chests with
Clé du trésor funéraire
. They have a chance to contain the rewards above as well as
Insigne de l'assaut des Pandashan
and
Points de justice
. Based on Blizzard's most
recent patch notes
, there is also a small chance to get epic loot! No word yet what that could be.
There is a gold counter tallying your riches as you complete the instance--you can easily make several hundred gold, as Lore did, without too much practice.

Scenario Traps
While there are many treasure chests in the scenario, they're all guarded by traps.
The first room contains some basic pillar traps that periodically cast lightning (
Explosion de foudre
), as well as Mogu statues that activate and do an AoE stun (
Choc minéral
) if you do not move away. Since lightning can slow, this can easily turn into a bad slow + stun combination. There are also
Tisse-cendre
s that don't hit very hard, but can web you.
The second room is more complex and has many tile traps (similar to the Ruins of Guo-Lai) as well as traps that port you several feet and begin to damage you if you step inside their radius. In addition, there are several NPCs present.
Pilleur crasselame
is the most interesting as he moves very quickly and can open doors for you, but can also be killed for
La salle du trésor du roi-tonnerre
credit.
The third room adds the presence of
Guetteur de pierre
and Mogu
Factionnaire de pierre
. At the end of the scenario, you'll fight
Dieu-mastodonte Gulkan
, who'll try to knock you back into all the harmful traps we've described along the way.
Complete the scenario by talking to
Tenwu de la Fumée rouge
off to the side, who is helpfully surrounded by
Fumigène rouge
. He'll give you an extra
Clé du trésor funéraire
.
Speed Run Enhancements
As Lore pointed out in his video, there are several reputation items that can help negate annoying traps. Most cost one
Breloque ancienne de bonne fortune
, so if you can grab a few more chests as a result, it seems like a good investment:

Stage 3 Scenario:
En route vers les cieux !
You fight off Zandalari and open up the Lightning Forge with the help of Taoshi, which later allows you to craft
weapons that resemble TBC Blacksmithing ones.
There are several buffs that can help you out:

Innervation tonnante

Stage 5 (killing Mogu):

Stage 4 Scenario:

For this scenario, you'll help Taoshi reclaim the Shipyard. You'll dodge traps in the courtyard, stealth through the ship and knock out guards, and fight
Hu’seng le gardien de la porte
in a dramatic lightning-filled showdown.
