DO NOT do this quest when you first get it. It's red and red for a reason. Fizzle is level 12 and has an imp minion. He casts a lot of shadow bolts and his imp does fire bolts. You will die fast since he's in the middle of all the other burning blade orcs. Make sure you're at least level 11 or even 12 before completing this quest.

He's located in Thunder Ridge. Upon entering the ridge, go left and then follow the path to the right. He's in a little valley on the right side.

Comment by Orik

He's located northwest of Razorhill, in a valley with thunder lizards, I suggest getting a party and kill all the mobs around it before killing him.

The valley is like a maze so you should hearthstone.

This can be a challenging quest if you go alone. But if you get a group around levels 9-12, you will be fine. You will find him in Thunder Ridge, right where all the Stormie kodos are(sorry can't remeber their names) Hes in a camp, surrounded by a bunch of orcs, both casters and meele mobs. Make sure you clear everyone around him first, he takes 30 second breaks once in a while, he will walk around , and come back. That's when you clear the mobs around him. Then just simply kill him. NOTE: He's just like a warlock, with an imp. He will drain your life, and cast shadow bolts. Again, make sure you get atleast one more person to do this with.

Defiantely a challenging quest, and if you attempt it at pre 10, unless you have friends with you it is a suicide attempt. You have to travel to Thunder Ridge, and travel inside the canyon passed all the Thunder Lizards. Till you get to a small camp with a bunch of orcs and a lone goblin or gnome i forget what Fizzle is.

Easiest way is to just full out DPS fizzle, loot and die, you die but it gets the quest done, but thats only for people with ranged capabilities, if you are a melee class you might want to try to clear the camp, useing line of sight to get the casters to come back towards the entrance, you will end up getting fizzle and an add but you should be able to take fizzle out before you die or if you get lucky kill him and the add, depending on level.

Good luck!

A tip on how to make this quest a bit easier:

Remember the skull that you got rewarded from the Minshina's Skull quest? Save it up to use on Fizzle. At maximum power, it sucks 125 hp from him and recharges you with the same amount. When timed correctly, that can be a 250 hp turnaround and a game breaker.

Remember that if you are an Orc, use this BEFORE you use Blood Fury to maximise its effect. And lastly, take out the imp first. Good luck.

Fizzle Darkstorm is at 42,26 (Durotar)

Comment by 46065

This quest is not that hard. I did it as solo as a lvl 10 warloc (had minion). Just approach from the razorclaw grounds and drop down from cliff about 20 ft away from camp. Use ranged attacks to draw surrounding orcs out and beat them one on one. Then, you have a battle against just Fizzle and his imp.

Comment by Thottbot

I had some trouble finding this guy. You can either go to where he is, and drop into his camp, or you can enter the strip-mine, and fight your way through to his camp. Here are the directions to got to him, by fighting your way through.

To start in the strip-mines, go to 39,33, and then walk north.
When you get to 39,28, go north again.
When you get to 41,24, go south.

Final position is 41,26.

Comment by Thottbot

Also make sure you scout out your exit. When I dropped in the first time I didn't plan an exit route and the lizards ate me :( (opps wrong way!)

Not to tough if you drop in from the top and work your way thru but advise a 2-3 min party in group just to help with aggro control. Hope this helps,

Tavall

Comment by Thottbot

bah, I just did this thing today with an undead rogue to get the dagger at the end of the quest chain, and the prereq is simply this:

Before you can get the quest off the orc just inside RAzor Hill, you need to have talked to Master Gadrin in Sen'jin Village. Gadrin gives you the quest that's basically "talk to this orc in Razor Hill"

anyways, then you can do the quest. Cheers.

The correct quest to open this is

https://www.wowhead.com/classic/quest=823/report-to-orgnil

Report to Orgnil in Senjin Village.

Comment by Thottbot

The reason it's difficult to pull some of these people is because some of them are linked. Pull one and you get two for the price of one. The two most-annoying things about this quest: 1) The mage's flame-throwing gremlins have virtually intercontinental range, greater than almost anything else in the game. You'll be having a beer with Thrall and they will still be shooting at you, and 2) Fizzle respawns faster than almost anyone except Ursal in Teldrassil; he respawned almost before I could get him killed. You could probably stay in the canyon and just keep farming Fizzle alone for hours. Wouldn't that be fun?

Comment by Thottbot

I solo'd this with a lvl 10 mage. Take out any wandering mobs, then the ones on the sides. When Fizzle comes towards the middle of the camp, take out his imp and then him. You may need a healing pot. Don't rush out to leave, cuz you will have to take out the thunder lizards first.

Comment by Thottbot

i soloed this at lvl 10 (warrior) all you have to do is pick off the guys around him one by one as he goes up to the alter thing and then when he is left with his minion take out the imp and then him -- helps if you have a ranged weapon

Comment by Thottbot

I followed the instructions in the first sticky and they worked

Comment by Thottbot

Once I found the few comments that directly explained the location of the camp without using coordinates (the recent patch made my cosmos obsolete) I faced the quest itself. It is very hard to draw single opponents away without others chasing after you. And also, another thing that suprised me that wasn't covered here was that unlike other quests I've done, the demon minions of the enemies stay alive after their master dies. I tried it with a lvl 11 troll rogue so sneaking past the lizards was easy, and, after about 5 deaths, hearthed out of there while Fizzle's imp was still attacking me. A particularly difficult quest for such a low level.

Comment by Thottbot

You need to complete Report to Ognil from Master Gadrin in Sen'jin-Village to get Dark Storms from Orgnil Soulscar.

Fizzle Darkstorm is right here. It's rather tough to solo around lvl12 because there are humanoids arround him and about 50% of them are Warlocks, so you seldom get one, most times 2 and often 3 Adds (2 Humanoids one Minion). Bring a friend and work quick as Fizzle Respawns about every 1min. and the other mobs are respawning quick too.

snafu,
Suomynona

Comment by Thottbot

Hmm hard quest.

Step 1= Go strip-mines(39,33)

Step 2= When you get to north(39,28)

Step 3= When you get to 41,24, go south

Final Step=Final position is 41,26

Comment by Thottbot

Me and my priest buddy (both lvl 9's) had real problems with this quest he just hits so hard. So I ran in concussion one of the adds then started pounding the hell out of Frizzel with arcane and bow attacks we sruvived and then while moping some of the other adds he respawned! So we just picked up his claw and spirit rezzed. Indeed not to be solo'd.

Comment by Thottbot

It's easy to find him... :P He is in a fissure neear the Tor'kren Farm. You seek out his camp while walking on the rim, and then jump down at the entarnce, kill his guards and him. He has a pet, and he uses shadow bolt, I didn't see any more of his abilities. Usually there is a chest behind him... If you have time open it. And there is an orc warlock who is sleeping on a carpit. First I thought he is dead, so I pulled him too. Watch out with that @!%.

Comment by Thottbot

just soloed with my lvl 11 hunter, if you choose to do it quick, focus fire him and ingore adds. me and pet diedonce. PS this may not be a good idea for alot of other classes as he has 3 others in the camp with him. So more a guide for hunters :) happy gaming.

Comment by Allakhazam

i soled him with a lvl 11 rogue dual wielding swords, i killed him front two guards, pulled the warrior near him when he was a good distance away, used stealth to get the warlock by the altar thingy with the candles on, but i also aggored the warlock next to him which was unhealthy, but i just scraped by, then i used stealth to creep up on him and let rip as fast as i caould, i then turned around and beat that bloody imp of his up, i probably should have gone for the imp first as he only takes a few hits to kill and its half of fizzles power, i then got out kiling thunder lizards on the way, quite happy i was :)

Comment by Allakhazam

Was Definatly hard but solo'd it with lvl 10 Warrior, died couple times but just had to pull them 1 at a time and get Fizzle when hes alone.

Comment by Allakhazam

Done this quest with my orcish warrior lvl 11. Used bandages once. jumped down near entrance guards? killed them 1 by 1. Then pulled and killed all around Fizzle. Patience needed. And gun/bow. When you leave Fizzle alone without his guards - kill him!

Comment by Allakhazam

This is where the MOB is at

Fizzle Darkstorm those who dont know how to find a MOB

Comment by Allakhazam

This quest is a difficult one to solo for most players level 10-12. I recommend grouping up with at least one other person, I took 4 people and cleared the area around Fizzle first. Then the groups Rogue took on his Demon pet while the rest of us went after Fizzle. He goes down fast but don't let him nail you with ranged attacks, he and his pet can drop you very quickly from afar.

Also of note - it is VERY difficult to "pull" Fizzle out of the camp.

Comment by Allakhazam

Hahaha I must be really lucky, because a lieutenant's insignia for Hidden Enemies dropped of a burning blade apprentice xD

Comment by Allakhazam

So, can anyone give a clue where this camp is?

Comment by Allakhazam

This is possible to solo, you need to pull all the front guards first (two at the entrance to the small valley and one caster type a bit inside slightly right), and after that get the last melee guy on the right-most side. The trick is to pull by a range attack when Fizzle is furthest away from the mob you are pulling. Once all of these mobs are dead. You go for Fizzle only kill him and then run away before his imp or if any other mobs aggroed you while you killed him. Once they give up you run back and loot Fizzle's paw. A bit tricky just be patient.

This quest appears to have a pre-req. My lvl 12 undead warlock was not offered the quest by Orgnil. Perhaps the Zalazane quest out of Sen'jin? I'm not sure...

Comment by Allakhazam

i did this quest being a hunter level 11 with a scorpion level 10
I jumped in front of the camp(using the rocks that come out of the walls) without losing a single hit point.
Then i killed the 2 melee guards that were there and a warlock thas was just next to fizzle when fizzle was in the furthest point. Then i pulled fizzle when he was far from the fanatic on his left and killed him very easily.

Comment by Allakhazam

I'm not offered this quest... any prequest?

Comment by Allakhazam

Clear the patrol, clear the sleeping one on the left, wait for Fizzle to move to the far left area, pull the farside sleeping one.

As Fizzle returns, rush him with insta nuke (Earth Shock) and melee. He went down pretty quick for a level 12. Loot, leave.

Comment by Allakhazam

42,26

He's in a camp down in ThunderRigde.

Comment by Allakhazam

i just basicly went to orgrimmar, then i took my rogue and smashed everything and let my lvl 10 shaman do the rest (looting and killing the middle dude)

Comment by Allakhazam

The pre-rec for this one is the report to orgnil quest from that guy outside the troll village at the Y juction that either takes you to troll village, razor or the den.

Comment by Allakhazam

Soloed it at lvl 11 with my orcish warrior. Died for times, but u can read my guide and doit without walks from the cemetery.

I jumped down near the entrance. Killed two fanatics that were guarding the entrance. It was pretty easy, cuz they are at the distance one from another, so I killed them 1 by 1. Then I killed one fanatic to the left from fizzle.
But! Don't even think to use charge killing him. Pull him with your gun/bow/throwing smth. After the left one i made a walk, pulled and killed fanatic and the one with the minion (pull both very carefully), then handled the last one from fizzle's guards in the same way I killed previous.
At last i got fizzle alone. Charge, Sunder Armor, and slash, slash, slash!
During this time i used bandages twice. No potions were used. GL killing him

Comment by Allakhazam

Alright, there is a way to get to Fizzle without running through the canyon and having to deal with the thunder lizards.
1) Leave Razor Hill, take road West until you are directly South from Tor'kren Farm (you should be at point 43,43)
2) Head north, avoid the Razormane guys
3) You'll come to the ravine, walk around to the opposite side and you'll see an opening in the rocks that you can slide down without loosing any hitpoint and without Aggro'ing anything (at least I didnt, at level 9)

Comment by Allakhazam

Soloed this with my level 10, pet-less troll hunter.
*wicked grin*

Comment by Allakhazam

soloed easy as 9 hunter (note: used my Faintly Glowing Skull from the Minshina's Skull quest)

Comment by Allakhazam

the exact location is 40,25

Comment by Allakhazam

loli got this quest at lvl 9...guess i must wait.
(i got all the pre-req. with some help from others)
sounds hard

Comment by Allakhazam

Anyone got his location? Having trouble finding him.

NVM Found Him. He is in the stone tunnel with the Lightning Lizard guys.

Comment by iwua

I really enjoy doing this quest, though I often die taking a new character through it, generally either because of impatience or respawns. Probably best to save this quest until you are around level 10, or do it with a group. It's also helpful to do Hidden Enemies from Thrall in Orgrimmar at the same time, because the quest item can drop from these mobs as well as the mobs in Skull Rock, but the insignia has a low drop rate, so you may not want to wait for enough respawns to get it.

It's easiest to enter from the west (by the thunder lizards). There's plenty of space to drop down from the ridges above between the camp and the thunder lizards. It can be helpful to kill the thunder lizards to allow a "run away! run away!" to the south.

Note that Fizzle and his imp will wander away from the central camp fire periodically (this is where patience comes in). If he is by the fire, you can carefully pull the guards from the north and south without pulling him, but not the one right by the fire.

So clear those two guards, then wait for him to walk away, and clear the one by the fire. Then when he's coming back, kill his minion and then him. Or have his minion fight a pet or stoneclaw totem and kill him. If you have an interrupt, it is really helpful to stop his "Drain Life". If not, you will probably need some heals/Faintly Glowing Skull/potions.

If you hang around the area mining or revenge-killing the other Burning Blade members, be careful, because Fizzle and his minion respawn right by the fire pretty quickly.

Which is helpful if you get there after someone has killed him, but really awkward if you're, say, fighting one of the other mobs, or hanging out cooking food by the fire. Totally crashed my s'mores party...

Comment by Etreum

The big problem is that the little guy and his imp respawn in seconds! I killed him three times before I was able to kill all. Trick is kill him, loot him, run away.

HARDCORE PLAYERS
this quest is easy if you are a hunter or lock or have a friend of those two classes.
you can use your pet to pull Fizzle out of the canyon, skipping the whole canyon, making the quest really easy.
here is a video of me using this strat to pull Fizzle out of the canyon on Hardcore-Skullrock: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKpZWe9wbJ0

Comment by SirGrahame

This quests kills a lot of toons in HC. But it isn't that hard if you know what to do. As stated above, you need to clear the mobs before taking on Fizzle. LEAVE THE LOOT UNTIL YOU ARE DONE AS IT DELAYS RESPAWNS! Here is what the pattern is: 1 guard comes up the entrance so you take him down first. Fizzle leaves with his imp periodically to go to the left corner. Wait for him to leave. Then, to the left, there is a guard lying down under a tent that will wake up when you start fighting. Take him out. Refresh your health and mana as needed. Now, take out the mage and his imp in the right corner. Now you just have to wait for Fizzle to come back. Take out the imp first if you have a ranged attack. If you do this at full health, you should be all set. Loot the bodies as you leave. I hope that helps!
