Trivia
- PTR adventure journal
When the breaking of N'Zoth's prison unleashed his aqir across Azeroth, their dark prophets set about constructing an obsidian statue imbued with the void essence of the Old God himself. The moment Maut sprung to life it consumed the magic of its creators, leaving their corpses to rot beneath the scorching sun of Uldum.
- Maut's name, as well as his mechanic of turning to stone based on his mana bar, harkens back to the first obsidian destroyer boss: Moam, from Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj.
