Other minis and map mechanics
Heroic Hogger starts the fight with two Warsong Raiders (Saboteur talent) and a Huntress (Elven Might talent) that will immediately attack towards your base. They will respawn one at a time and gather at their start location, and attack again after 65 seconds (at 2:25) and then every 60 seconds (1:25 and 0:25).
Hogger also has two Murloc Tidehunters sitting in barrels protecting the right lane. The Murlocs will respawn after 7 seconds if killed.
Hogger:
- 3500 health
- Mace Cleave: 180 Physical damage, 120 degrees cleave, 4.25 radius, 1.4 seconds attack speed, hits ground minis only
- Axe Throw: 90 Physical damage, 6.5 range, 1.4 seconds attack speed
General strategy
First, you need to defend against Hogger’s initial attack. You need to get rid of the Huntress because if she is allowed to sit in the back and throw glaives, your minis will fall quickly. Abomination is one good way to handle her, as Abomination will hook her to the front. Arthas can do the same with the Death Grip talent.
Then, you want to attack the Tower and start attacking Hogger from there. Keep an eye on the Raiders and Huntress, and defend as needed. Don’t bother attacking the Murlocs, they respawn quickly anyway. It is better to attack Hogger from the Tower to go around the Murlocs.
