What to do

Kill 1 Fire Lord, 1 Molten Giant, 1 Ancient Core Hound and 1 Lava Surger, then return to Duke Hydraxis in Azshara.

Objective by objective

The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.

The quest giver's words

<name>, perhaps it is time to give you a real test. Are you ready?

At the bottom of Blackrock Depths is a passage to the Molten Core. This is a stronghold of our enemy, held by the most powerful servants of fire on this world.

Go to the Molten Core, <name>. Show me you have the strength and the will to defeat what you find there.

And if you have allies among your people, then rally them. Nothing short of an army can hope to enter the Molten Core and live.

Completion

You have done what most of your kind would think impossible. You have faced the beings of the Molten Core, and triumphed!

For so small a creature, you have displayed great resource.

Some day, perhaps we might strike a true allegiance between your kind and the Waterlords.

Category: Azshara (Raid).

What you need

Nothing: no quest item is handed out and none is required to start.

The reward

The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.

What players recorded

Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.

Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.

  • Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route

An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.

Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Azshara), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
