Adventure Guide
Shortly after the Sundering, a dark messenger arrived on the fresh shores of Zandalar, intending to bring the newly isolated tribe into the service of N'Zoth. Zek'voz was prepared to entice, bribe, cajole, corrupt, or simply kill them, but he was not prepared to encounter the defenses of Uldir. He was captured, studied, disassembled, and stored in the Titans' Archives, where he has waited for a chance to escape.
Overview
Zek'voz attacks players while the compromised Titan Discs come online, calling forth powerful Old God magics and summoning their lesser servants. As new Titan Discs come online, previously activated Discs will power down.

Trivia
- During the Battle for Azeroth alpha, the Zek'voz boss encounter was initially called Titan Discs, with the boss itself being named Zol'thuum. It was later renamed to Zek'vohj, and finally to Zek'voz.
- During alpha, the raid encounter description read: "Zol'thuum assaults players while the compromised Titan Discs come online, calling forth powerful Old God magics and summoning their lesser servants. As new Titan Discs come online, previously activated Discs will go dormant."
- Zek'voz's model is called aqir.m2 in the files, though his race is never stated in-game. He was confirmed to be an aqir when other aqiri mobs with the same model were introduced in patch 8.3.0.
