MOTHER (Matron of Tenacity, Herald of Endless Research) is a titanic watcher and the second boss in Uldir. She shares valuable information with the players and tries to prevent Uldir from becoming completely contaminated.

Adventure Guide

Uldir's titanic watcher was gifted with tenacity and an insatiable desire to discover a "solution" to the Old Gods. Her protocols have remained fully intact, even though many other systems in her facility have collapsed. WARNING: M.O.T.H.E.R. will not accept aid from contaminated subjects.

Overview

Overview of tactics for the MOTHER fight.

Pass through Defense Grids to reach the final chamber of the Hall of Sanitation. Reaching the third and final chamber cleanses the raid of all corruption, and inflicts MOTHER with Depleted Energy. When MOTHER is first active in any chamber she will begin a countdown to activate Cleansing Purge within that chamber.

Outro

MOTHER yells: System restored. Levels returned to secure thresholds.

MOTHER yells: Facility systems compromised. Proceed with caution.

Princess Talanji yells: What is dis place?

Brann Bronzebeard yells: You're a sight for sore eyes. Close as I can figure, this is some sort o' research facility.

MOTHER yells: Designation, Uldir. This research facility was designed to contain and study the entity known as G'huun.

Princess Talanji yells: You've been keeping dat abomination alive?! Why?

Brann Bronzebeard yells: Well that explains why the blood trolls are lurkin' about, but why would the titans keep an Old God alive?

MOTHER yells: Collection of data is imperative to combating the Old Gods. G'huun's unique biology potentially holds the answer to eliminating their threat.

Princess Talanji yells: And have you found de answer?

Brann Bronzebeard yells: Did ye find the answer?

MOTHER yells: Negative. Data inconclusive. Alternative research trials are being developed and are scheduled to be deployed in two thousand three hundred sixty four cycles.

Princess Talanji yells: We don't have dat kind of time! G'huun must be stopped now!

Brann Bronzebeard yells: Ach! I dunnae think we have that kind of time. Best get rid of G'huun before this rot gets any worse.

MOTHER yells: In order to destroy the specimen, you must reactivate the vault consoles located throughout this wing.

MOTHER yells: Activating all consoles will grant access to G'huun's vault, where the specimen may be purged by activating the reorigination drive.

Princess Talanji yells: We have a plan. Let's activate de consoles and put an end to G'huun's plague once and for all.

Brann Bronzebeard yells: Sounds like a plan. While we're at it, I'll see what other secrets the titans may have left behind.

Notes

• Early in the Battle for Azeroth beta, MOTHER was called Red Queen, a reference to the character of the same name from the Resident Evil film series.
• Early in the beta, MOTHER's Adventure Guide entry read "MOTHER will not allow adventurers into Uldir until they have been cleansed of corruption. First, they must pass through her Hall of Sanitation."
  • A later build changed "her Hall of Sanitation" to "her decontamination chamber".
• MOTHER may be a reference to the computer of the same name from Alien.

Patch changes

• Patch 8.0.1 (2018-07-17): Added.
