Drak'tharon Instance Guide
Drak'tharon is located in the northwestern portion of Grizzly Hills. Drak'tharon used to be home to the trolls of Northrend but they where evacuated and now Scourge rules the Keep. Drak'tharon is one of the longest instances in WoTLK and has one optional boss, King Dred. Everyone does him anyway, so he usually is never skipped but still he is an optional boss. Drak'tharon also has one of the easiest final bosses on both Normal and Heroic Difficulty.
Trollgore
Normal Strategy: Consider this fight just a stupidly easy fight on normal.
Heroic Strategy: This fight is just a DPS race on heroic. Only notable thing is he explodes corpses, keep him away from them.

Novos the Summoner
Normal Strategy: This boss is simplistic, the second you engage him he'll form an immunity barrier around himself. In order to take the barrier down you have to kill the Undead that enter the room from the way you came in and the Undead that come down from the stairs near Novos. Once all the waves of Undead are slain the barrier will go down and he will become attackable. From there its simplistic.
Heroic Strategy: Same as normal, just harder

King Dred
Normal Strategy: Tank and spank, only additive is Grevious Bite, which will cause damage to who ever its on until the target is fully healed.
Heroic Strategy: Same as normal with one exception. On Heroic King Dred does a debuff which reduces your armor by 75%. This is a nasty debuff that lasts a couple of seconds.

The Propget Tharon'ja
Normal Strategy: The fight begins while The Prophet is in skeletal serpent form. Have the tank pick him up and at a certain percentage he will stun everyone and change into a living serpent, changing everyone into skeletons. In skeletal form you need to Spam 1. When you have the boss on you use Bone Shield and when your health isn't full use Touch of Life. He'll turn back into a skeletal serpent, and back into a living one multiple times during this whole fight.
Heroic Strategy: Same as normal
