Introduction
Patch 4.2
introduced
Cataclysm
's first legendary item - the staff
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
. Throughout this guide, I'll try to cover as much as it is currently possible to know about it: how to get it, what to prepare for, why it's awesome, and why it makes sense that it will exist - as well as some hand in hand speculation and facts on how it will all turn out.
I wrote the original guide, which appeared in Wowhead's Patch 4.2 Guide, and seeing as the guide-system is out, I figured it would be a great time to polish it up, bring it up to date, and fill in my personal experiences with the quests, now that I've completed the questline.
Long story short, it will be filled with spoilers, so if you intend to figure it all out by yourself, it's probably safe to read carefully, as I do
not
intend to use spoiler-tags every time there is a potential spoiler. It would be a clutter beyond belief, look stupid, disrupt the flow, and both whelplings
and kittens
will die.
But, if you just want to get right to the guide:
Look no further
.
A Closer Look at the Staff
The most exciting thing about new items has always been their looks and stats. It's always good to know if it's worth going for - besides being an awesome legendary caster staff, of course!
The Three Stages
Just as the previous legendary,
影之哀伤
, was upgraded in stages,
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
will follow this style, which is a great way to gradually progress through the hard work needed. During the questline, the staff is upgraded two times, both upgrades requiring plenty of work and dedication from both you and your raiding guild. The stages are shown below in detail, and includes links to the quest walk-through.
Questline:
Stage 1 - What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
Stage 2 - The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
Stage 3 - The Heart and Souls of Flame
Item:
诺达希尔的分枝
诺达希尔符文法杖
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
Model:
It's worth to notice that all the
major
steps (
全视之眼
,
光阴苦短
and
烈焰之心
) can be completed simultaneously by different players, as all of these go by the logic of "drop these given items, if someone has the quest". So, for instance, a boss can drop both
永恒余烬
,
沸燃之烬
, have the
阴燃
-debuff upon death
AND
have lead to a player obtaining his charged focus for
委派
at once. Not too bad!
Wrath of Tarecgosa - The Legendary Proc
Like any other legendary item,
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
has a very nifty proc, that truly makes it interesting:
泰蕾苟萨之怒
. The wording indicates an effect much like the Mastery of
Elemental
萨满祭司
:
精通:元素过载
. As far as it's currently known, it seems to proc at
~10%
, and dealing full damage. The duplicated spell will show in combat-logs as the same as was cast, making it almost impossible to track completely.
The good news doesn't end there, though. There's also a side-effect to account for, which is mostly relevant to DoT-classes, such as such as
Affliction
术士
or
Shadow
牧师
. DoTs can also be duplicated, but these will show up as the spell
泰蕾苟萨之怒
, which will deal damage identical to a given tick. This was earlier confirmed in a blue post, and ensures that the damage increase is identical for all casters:
Dragonwrath is designed to be DOT-friendly. Simply put, it has a chance to copy each tick of a DOT spell. There is no internal cooldown, since we want it to be good for warlocks and Shadow priests.
Furthermore, the proc chance is adjusted favorably for pet specs that derive a significant portion of their DPS from pets.
Our goal is to tune Dragonwrath in such a way that you can give it to any caster without anticipating certain classes or specs getting a bigger benefit than others.
Noticed the "no internal cooldown"? Thought so. Commence the potential air-clutter! And I didn't even mention the awesomeness that
变压脉冲电容器
adds into the equation in those terms.
Tarecgosa's Visage - Shapeshift Mount
But wait -
there is even more to it than that
! Another effect bound to the staff, is the on-use
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
. While it isn't an
actual
mount-spell which is added to your spellbook (for now, perhaps?), it will turn you into Tarecgosa, so you can fly - and walk - around in her form. Try to compare the details of the spell to those of
沙石幼龙
. Looks very similar, right?
While it doesn't look
completely
like Tarecgosa's ingame form, it's obvious that it's resembling her. And it does look kick-ass. The model can be seen in more detail at the
model section of the guide
.
The most interesting thing, however, is that patch
10.1.0
of Dragonflight
finally
lets us use this without having to equipping the staff:
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
. It only requires doing an awesome questline, which I have covered in the
Dragonflight Epilogue section
. Furthermore, patch
11.0.0
of The War Within
also
allowed us to use this for
驭空术
!
Prologue - A Lost Heart of Magic
A Lost Heart of Magic
Catching up with the Lore
What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
The Heart and Souls of Flame
Soaring Among the Stars
The story and lore behind
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
evolves around more than just
海加尔山
and the
火焰之地
, which will be the associated raiding tier. Both the Bronze and Blue Dragonflights take part in the epic questline that brings the staff into existence.
After the demise of
玛里苟斯
in
永恒之眼
a few years past, the Blue Dragonflight has been without a leader and guide.
阿莱克丝塔萨,生命的缚誓者
has taken care of the
魔法精华
since, until a fitting replacement could be chosen. There are two prime candidates:
卡雷苟斯
, which most might remember from
太阳之井高地
, and
阿瑞苟斯
, the son of
Malygos
, who was also present in
安其拉
. They both have very different views of what path the flight should take. We will also meet the dragon
Tarecgosa
, who will - as is hinted by the name of the staff - have a very big part in the questline.
The Bronze Dragonflight
are still fighting the timelines and the
Infinite Dragonflight
, but this time it seems they aren't the ones behind the new event that
阿纳克洛斯
has located, which seems shrouded in chaos and mystery. The link to the
Bronze Dragonflight
was most likely also meant be a warm-up for now-scrapped (sadly!)
Caverns of Time: War of the Ancients
raid, which was due to be part of Cataclysm. However, it does give a nice lead in for the dungeons in patch 4.3, although no mention of Tarecgosa is found there.
It is also worth to mention that the story is
not
made to fit with the new "Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects"-novel - at least completely. To avoid any spoilers from the book - and to keep it as much in line as how the in-game lore currently looks - I have chosen to completely ignore any potential clashing events, and focus entirely on how the quests unfolds in-game. I'm aware that the novel-part is supposed to be canon, but - again - I'll disregard that in order to keep it simple and enjoyable for the reader. Besides, it would potentially be horribly confusing as well.
The Questchain for Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
This is based on my first - and only - playthrough of the questchain, when it was implemented in patch
4.2.0
. Edits and updates are a results of comments and other reports. Please report if something is not accurate, so that I can get it aligned!
Browsing through the quest-texts reveals lots of things, but far from everything, even though the content has been live for quite a while. I've gone into great lengths to dig out the deeper details - but some things could really only be explained by completing the quests and taking tons of notes while doing them, and then gathering the loose threads inside the vast Wowhead database.
For each phase, the quick-box to the right will provide links to the major quests of the phase, that are either very long, or takes some time figuring out. Generally, these are simply all quests that aren't guiding you towards an NPC or shows beyond awesome cut-scenes.
Before starting the long adventure,
it is required
that you have defeated a
熔火领主
in the
火焰之地
OR
all the bosses of Cataclysm's first raiding tier, and thus getting the achievements below:
暮光堡垒
黑翼血环
风神王座
The below clarification was added with the update of the patch notes at
2011-06-24
:
Once any of these achievements have been unlocked, players can accept the quest A Legendary Engagement from Ziradormi in Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar, or Coridormi atop the Wizard's Sanctum in Stormwind (players who have already completed any of these achievements are immediately eligible for this quest). Players who become eligible for the quest series by killing a Molten Lord in the Firelands will automatically receive the quest Your Time Has Come, leading them to the start of the questline. The legendary item questline is only available to druids, mages, priests, shaman, and warlocks.
Before that, you will
not
be able to start the first stage. If you have not been lucky enough to have defeated the whole first tier, it's recommended that you ask your guild to let you quickly get to the first gathering-part of the quest, before starting on the bosses.
Let's get started!
Stage 1 - What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
A Lost Heart of Magic
What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
(Your Time Has Come)
A Legendary Engagement
A Wrinkle in Time
All-Seeing Eye
On a Wing and a Prayer
Through a Glass, Darkly
Actionable Intelligence
Delegation
Nordrassil's Bough
Ascension of the Blue Aspect
The Heart and Soul of Flame
Soaring Among the Stars
In this stage, you will take part in uncovering that a terrible series of (hardly unfortunate, but still) events, that could very well mean the end of Azeroth, as well as disrupting the first part of it. You will also meet members of both the Blue and Bronze Dragonflight. In the end, you will be the owner of the
诺达希尔的分枝
, the first of the three stages of the staff!
应运而生
or
应运而生
<Automatic upon killing a
熔火领主
>
Ziradormi / Coridormi
You will start the quest from killing the first
熔火领主
in
火焰之地
, if you didn't already pick up the quest from completing the previously mentioned achievement. You are guided to either Ziradormi or Coridormi depending on your faction.
传奇的邀请
or
传奇的邀请
Ziradormi / Coridormi
Anachronos
In case you already completed
暮光堡垒
,
黑翼血环
and
风神王座
, you can start the legendary questchain by talking to either
齐拉多尔米
(located in Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar) or
克里多尔米
(located in the Wizard's Sanctum in Stormwind), who asks you to travel to the Caverns of Time located in
塔纳利斯
and speak to the mighty Bronze dragon
阿纳克洛斯
, who most players should remember from the questchain to unlock
安其拉废墟
and
安其拉
back in Classic.
时间的波澜
Anachronos
Anachronos
Upon speaking to
Anachronos
, he will let you witness the current future of Azeroth. This will be shown by a cut-scene depicting the future event and the terrible fate that will befall Azeroth - unless something is done quickly. It seems only the help of a mortal will prevent it from happening.
As you might have guessed, this mortal is going to be you. I mean, who else could
possibly
do it?
全视之眼
Anachronos
Anachronos
The future of Azeroth does not look good. Luckily,
Anachronos
knows of how to create an artefact that can unveil the events that seems to take place at Coldarra - the domain of the Blue Dragonflight.
The gathering of these materials will be your first real challenge (or grind, if you will), as the 25
永恒余烬
will take some time to get by. Keep in mind that these are
Bind on Pickup
and
cannot be traded
. They will also only show up, if there is a person present at the raid who is on the quest. Notice that this is
not
the same as
永生烈焰
, which is the crafting material of this tier (like
符文宝珠
or
源生萨隆邪铁
from Wrath of the Lich King).

On top of all that, there is the needed to buy the

Tarecgosa
Now that the
无尽时光之眼
is in your possession, it is time to find out what is going on in Coldarra. After the death of
玛里苟斯
, the place has become a dangerous place, so travel with caution, and hope you'll find a dragon that won't kill you on the spot...
Don't worry - you'll survive! And, on top of that, you meet up with the dragon Tarecgosa... Name rings a bell, doesn't it? Good, because there's a very good reason for that.
一窥究竟
Tarecgosa
Tarecgosa
After meeting up with the blue dragon
Tarecgosa
, and showing her the
无尽时光之眼
, she accompanies you inside the Nexus, which is known as
魔枢
during this quest. This involves various encounters, a slightly changed layout, and a fight against
Thyrinar
, a Twilight Dragon, at the end. However, you will only be able to be assisted by
Tarecgosa
- that is, you're all by yourself, and will have to do the entire thing alone and ungrouped.
What to expect inside The Nexus
The progression through the instance is split into 3 different parts, each with unique encounters and challenges. It is worth to note that should you die during any given phase, you will be given a chance to start over again from the phase that you died in. This will last for as long as you want to go on, but keep in mind that grouping up with other people will reset the instance, and forcing you to start over.
NOTICE:
It's also
incredibly important
to emphasize that you
cannot complete the event if you're locked to
永恒之眼
, as that is where the vision after "Phase 3" takes place. This could very well get hotfixed, but for the time being, save yourself the trouble.
For the first phase, you're accompanied by
泰蕾苟萨
. She uses various frost- and arcane-based attacks to assist you defeat the bad guys. In addition, she gives you
泰蕾苟萨的气息
, which gives passive health and mana regeneration, as well as a sneak-peek of the proc from
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
.
In this part, you'll primarily face the following opponents:
冰缚哨卫
反击
- Purge- and spellsteal-able.
坚冰穿刺
- Interruptible and can be avoided.
魔法追猎者
- Two will spawn for each Sentinel faced.
吸取魔法
- Keep them at range, and down them fast.
- Silence, now removed from the game.
After the two
魔枢戒卫
s have passed, Tarecgosa runs off with the last
冰缚哨卫
after you've been encased in ice. Don't follow her - wait and kill the three
魔法追猎者
s. After that, progress through the gauntlet and quickly kill the mobs, as they do massive melee damage if left alive too long. Keep in mind that you will not have
泰蕾苟萨的气息
until you find her again. When you do, take out the two Icebound Sentinels, one at a time. She'll assist you killing the second one.
After that, you'll have to protect her while she uses her
碎门
. For that, a special Magic Hunter mini-boss appears:
塞雷多斯
:
法术之焰
- Easily avoidable, as long as you have a little range.
吸取魔法
- Same as with the
魔法追猎者
s.
- Silence, now removed from the game.
Upon defeating Ceredos, Tarecgosa will have shattered the wall, and Phase 2 can begin.
If anything, this is a "vehicle" encounter. You will have to jump between
魔枢平台
s. You'll start with a small one that floats towards the first big one.
Before progressing further, it's a good idea to get to know what we'll be facing during this encounter:
暮光裂隙制造者
暮光火球
- Interruptible, ordinary attack.
暗影新星
- Uninterruptible, and hits like a truck!
不受拘束的魔法
- Use to mitigate the Shadow Nova, by clicking a
不受拘束的魔法
Orb.
暮光缚法者
- two will float in after each Riftweaver defeated.
暮光火球
- Same as the Riftweaver attack.
At every big platform, there's
暮光裂隙制造者
, with 4
不受拘束的魔法
Orbs on each of them. Kill them as fast as possible, and use one of the Orbs on the platform in time for the Shadow ability. Save the remaining 3 orbs for dealing with the 2 lesser
暮光缚法者
(they can even be CC'ed), then use one of their pads to move further towards the east.
At one point,
Thyrinar
will fly in and attack the big platform you're on with
灼热气息
. Use an orb, if you can, and simply jump to the little platform that rose up from below, as fast as you can.
Tarecgosa
flies in and tears
Thyrinar
from the sky.
After getting off in the end, the
暮光入侵者
s will be killed by
Tarecgosa
, who comes in raining frost shards left and right. Just avoid them until then, or keep them at a distance. She'll get them all, eventually.
So, this is it - the big bad.
Thyrinar
seemingly didn't die before, and catches
Tarecgosa
by surprise, as you both stand on the platform.
This is meant to be the toughest part of the instance - depending on your class, at least. How exactly to kill him is simply knowing your class, and using the tools at your disposal - but the basics below should be enough pointers to give a good idea of what to expect, and how to prepare.
泰林纳尔
暮光冲击波
- Interruptible, shadow damage, ordinary attack.
暮光回复
- Dispell, spellsteal or otherwise.
Very important!
扭曲暮光
- Run for your life! The platform is very small, so remember to play it smart so you don't cage yourself and limit your movement, or reach a point where you cannot reach Thyrinar.
暮光入侵者
- will periodically join the fight from the slope. Never underestimate them.
急速冲锋
- Closes the gap to you, use whatever means you have to get them off you again.
法术反制
- Needs no further description. Not being able to cast is bad. Very bad.
火焰新星
- Again, needs no further description. Hurts a lot!
泰蕾苟萨
- caught in Thyrinar's
暮光囚牢
, and is - as such - unable to directly assist you, besides being passively there, and occasionally giving a
very
useful buff.
泰蕾苟萨的气息
- Just as in Phase 1. Much needed here, to give the extra boost.
蓝龙精华
- Done at some point during the fight. Should be spent nuking - but remember that control is vital here.
After that, touch the Timeless Eye, sit back and enjoy the magnificent "Obscurred Event"-cutscene.
可靠情报
Tarecgosa
Kalecgos
Tarecgosa
advises you to quickly make contact with
Kalecgos
in
海加尔山
, so that he may know of the events you both just witnessed. It seems that
Arygos
is in league with none other than
Deathwing
, and plans to kill him so he can ensure his position as the new Aspect of Magic. As you might have guessed, this is not good at all.
As a small bonus,
Kalecgos
offers some additional dialogue when you meet up with him, which offers some nice background for the lore-fanatics out there:
<My vision in the Eye of Eternity haunts me, Kalecgos. What do you make of it?>
There is a great deal at stake within the blue dragonflight,
.
Soon, a new aspect must be chosen to take the place of Malygos.
Arygos aspires to follow in the footsteps of his father, renewing the misguided aggression against all who wield mgic. This path, I feel, would lead to the end of our kind.
The remnants of our flight are divided on this fateful issue, and I fear that Arygos will stop at nothing to meet his ends...
<Who is Tarecgosa? I could not have made it through the Nexus without her.>
Kalecgos
<Wistfully, Kalecgos looks off to the horizon.>
Tarecgosa is... special to me.
When she was but a hatchling, I was charged with her protection and education. Over the millennia, we have forged a special bond, not unlike what you would call siblings.
Tarecgosa was born under a special sign that foretold of a great destiny. If the prophecies are true, then her survival is of vital importance to the blue dragonflight, and to Azeroth itself.
Our affinity for one another is well known within the remnants of our flight. If your vision recounted an event that has actually taken place, she could be in grave danger.
委派
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
Upon learning of the events,
Kalecgos
tasks you with an even more difficult mission - to obtain the
诺达希尔的分枝
from inside
火焰之地
. Should that fail, Nordrassil could be consumed in flame, from a ritual performed in the Firelands. This might be the very same event we witness in
Thrall
's vision in the
official "Patch 4.2: Rage of the Firelands"-trailer
.
There has been a bit of uncertainty regarding how the branch should be obtained, especially considering the recent attack from
管理者鹿盔
and his Druids of the Flame, that just paid a visit to Nordrassil in the new
救世萨满的召唤
/
救世萨满的召唤
questline. While Fandral's Druids of the Flame certainly have something to do with this, I'll get into the ritual itself later. One does not simply walk into such place - there's a portal to be opened first.
Opening the portal to the Anvil of Conflagration
In order to properly start this step, you will need an instance, where each of the following four bosses are alive:
沙恩诺克斯
,
雷奥利斯领主
,
贝丝缇拉克
and
奥利瑟拉佐尔
. The easiest is simply having a fresh instance, but seeing as you do not have to actually kill the bosses to complete this step, you could - for instance - complete the gathering of the foci in a 10-man earlier in the day. Of course, that would take some convincing from your guild, but it is doable that way!
They each follow the same method of being put together:
Gather
three fragments
during the encounter - these will stay in your inventory (and often on the ground too) through deaths and wipes.
Convert them into a dull focus -
this has a short casting time
.
Drop the dull focus
at specific point during the encounter where a
specific powerful ability
is being used. Again,
this has a casting time
, and will only stay on the ground for
two minutes
while uncharged.
Pick up the charged focus.
The below will describe each of these steps from the 4 bosses:
沙恩诺克斯
This part is all about being on your toes, as you need to act fast in order to drop the focus in time - especially if you also want to survive!
Find the
烬石碎片
:
Next to shattered
水晶牢笼陷阱
.
Drop
黯淡烬石焦镜
:
So that it is hit by
掷矛
. Remember, it's always thrown next to
裂肢
, so stay close and be quick!
Pick up
充能烬石焦镜
:
When the area is clear.
贝丝缇拉克
It's a good thing if you're on "web duty" here, as you will have to go topside twice during the encounter - most likely during the second and third top phase.
Find the
黑斑几丁碎片
:
Next to a dead
烬网工虫
. Notice, all three drop from one!
Drop
黯淡几丁焦镜
:
At the top of the web, before
阴燃毁灭
. Will most likely happen during the second web-phase.
Pick up
充能几丁焦镜
:
When you get a chance of getting topside again. Most likely at the third (and last) web-phase.
雷奥利斯领主
Bit tricky part, as you have to locate the fragments, and most likely get far away from healer range during that. It can take a while, but be on the lookout!
Find the
火岩碎片
:
Around the edges of the arena. Only one at a time is up!
Drop
黯淡火岩焦镜
:
Just before he does his
震荡践踏
. Simply get within melee-range when you got the three fragments, and be ready!
Pick up
充能火岩焦镜
:
Whenever you get the chance.
奥利瑟拉佐尔
As it always is with this fight, it's about avoiding the fire. You have to manoeuvre a lot to get the fragments though. It's worth to mention that this part will take you through two full phases - so be sure she isn't dead by the time the second burn-phase is about to end!
Find the
赤壳碎片
at:
One per egg of a
饥饿的巢鸟
spawn.
Drop
黯淡赤壳焦镜
:
Just before she reaches
蓄满力量
at 100 Energy.
Pick up
充能赤壳焦镜
:
When the area is clear again.
Once you have all four, head to the Circle of Thorns at the north-west end of
火焰之地
main area, where there's a very easily-seen portal on the map. Step close, and use any of the collected foci to
打开火焰传送门
. Don't worry, even though the foci get consumed, the portal will remain open.
Inside the Anvil of Conflagration
And so the real battles begin. This is a three phased event.
Phase 1:
烈焰先驱者
Interrupt their casts, similar to the
炽炎之爪新兵
s at
奥利瑟拉佐尔
. 4 spawn at 10-man, 7 on 25-man.
激情迸发!
- Stacking buff after a successful cast. Too many means pain. Lots of it.
火岩齐射
- Hits lots of targets.
Interrupt, at all costs!
烈火喷涌
- Direct Damage. Interrupt, if possible.
After this phase, you get a break to drink up and everyone stops being "in combat". Click the hovering branch in the middle to continue.
Phase 2:
受折磨的保护者
Defeat the Tormented Protector. Cleanse the roots just after the knockback, and let ranged deal with the Treants. Stack up, to ensure easier healing.
阴燃根须
- Roots the raid in place, dealing damage every second. Does, however, negate knockbacks, so wait with cleansing it until...
炽热踩踏
- Once this has happened, cleanse the roots, and continue.
烈焰树人
- Spawns from some distance. Let the ranged DPS handle these.
When the Protector is close to death, he'll come to his senses, and sacrifice himself for you - this is when the
real
fun starts!
Phase 3:
沃卡纳斯
Ramp up damage. Save
嗜血
for the later part of this phase, and burn like there's no tomorrow!
受祝福的诺达希尔防御者
- Given to you, as per
受折磨的保护者
s self-sacrifice.
熔火怪癖
- Volcanus wants
YOUR
life. Yes, you, the tree of life. Good thing you have 95% damage reduction!
苏醒之焰
- Spammed AoE fire damage. Unavoidable.
激情迸发!
- Same deal as with
烈焰先驱者
. This time, there's nothing to do against it other than killing him, so this is your "enrage".
After picking up the
诺达希尔的分枝
, take it to
卡雷苟斯
, who has taken residence on the
Amber Ledge
in the
北风苔原
. You'll also receive the temporary buff
受祝福的诺达希尔防御者
, which grants the title
<Name>
, Blessed Defender of Nordrassil
, which lasts for
two hours
and gives you a lovely flowery feel.
Bonus:
The model used for "Stage 0" of the staff - as seen in the quest - is in the database:
Monster - Caster Legendary Stage 0
, complete with a
very
nice model. Always worth a little peek.
诺达希尔的分枝
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
has witnessed the events you saw in
魔枢
by himself. As a thanks for your hard work in completing his mission - and saving Nordrassil - he will infuse the branch with the powerful magic from
无尽时光之眼
, turning it into a powerful staff.
Not only will you see the amazing effect going into the making of the staff, but you will - naturally - also receive the end result. This will make you the proud owner of
诺达希尔的分枝
- the first stage of the staff!
Stage 2 - The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
A Lost Heart of Magic
What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
Emergency Extraction
At One
Time Grows Short
Alignment
The Heart and Souls of Flame
Soaring Among the Stars
During this stage of the quest,
Tarecgosa
becomes a much more integral part of the quests, and the Blue Dragonflight finally gets their new leader, and a new Aspect of Magic. You'll venture into
火焰之地
again to further upgrade the staff to the
诺达希尔符文法杖
, which will be the second stage of the staff!
紧急撤退
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
doesn't feel good about everything that has already transpired, and feels it's safer if
Tarecgosa
is extracted from Coldarra before anything happens to her. He asks you to accompany him, to ensure that she will be safe.
As with all predictions of that kind - things don't exactly go as planned...
化为一体
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
Sadly, it seems that
Kalecgos
was right to be uneased.
Kalecgos
and yourself are ambushed by agents of the Twilight Dragonflight, and
Tarecgosa
sacrifices herself - just in time - to save
Kalecgos
' life. In order to safe her, and not die completely,
Kalecgos
asks to bind her essence to you.
This is the first time that a dragon essence has been bound to a mortal, which makes it quite an event. Sadly, it's only temporary for now - so, something has to be done, in order to save
Tarecgosa
!
光阴苦短
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
Despite temporarily saving
Tarecgosa
by binding her to you, it can only be made permanent by a (seemingly only blue)
Dragon Aspect
- and the essence-binding itself won't last until
Malygos
' successor has been chosen. Fortunately, there is a way to extend the essence, but it requires powerful materials.
The quest provides no direct details itself as
how
to get the 1000
沸燃之烬
, but we know at this time that they drop in stacks from bosses, in a way similar
Shadowmourne
's
影霜碎片
for the quest
碎裂的王座
. The quantity is based on the difficulty (that is; normal/heroic and 10/25-man) in
火焰之地
, and has been scaled up to counter against the simple
"I got one!"
versus
"I didn't get one!"
.

These numbers are based on Patch 4.2, and could - as such - be misleading as of today. I'll gladly update them, based on new experiences.
After you've collected all 1000
沸燃之烬
, meet up with
Kalecgos
at Coldarra again.
结盟
Kalecgos
Kalecgos
At this point, you have succeeded in extending
Tarecgosa
's essence within you.
Kalecgos
uses this to his advantage to get another vote to be
Malygos
' successor - as you can vote on behalf of
Tarecgosa
- so that her survival can be ensured.
Kalecgos
transforms you to temporarily take the form of
Tarecgosa
, so you can cast a vote in favor of him at the Ascension. During the very long (and
very
nice) cutscene, we experience both
Arygos
and
Kalecgos
each presenting a long monologue of why they should be voted for. At the end, Kalecgos gets all the votes, and is thus empowered to become the new Aspect of Magic.
Arygos
is enraged by this, and flies away, cursing everyone with the the outburst
"Fools! Neltharion take you all!"
. His future - at this time - is unknown, but while we don't directly meet him again, his fate is
revealed much later
, although it still has a fair bit of uncertainty behind it.
After this event, the bond with
Tarecgosa
's essence is strengthened in the staff, further upgrading it, and making you the proud owner of
诺达希尔符文法杖
! Not only that, but by receiving the staff,
Tarecgosa
is heard, saying
"I'm with you, always."
.
Very nice touch, and a fitting conclusion to a very impactful chapter of the story!
Stage 3 - The Heart and Souls of Flame
A Lost Heart of Magic
What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
The Heart and Souls of Flame
Heart of Flame
The Stuff of Legends
Soaring Among the Stars
In this stage, you will finally seal the bond between yourself and
Tarecgosa
, by uncovering the
烈焰之心
from
拉格纳罗斯
, as well as overcoming the biggest of all the challenges in the questline - lorewise, at least.
This will culminate in a giant event at your faction's capital city, where
Kalecgos
turns your staff into the mighty
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
, which means it is upgraded to its third and final of the three stages - and forever seals the bond between you and
Tarecgosa
!
烈焰之心
or
烈焰之心
Kalecgos
Hallegosa
Now that
Kalecgos
has ascended to his new position as the
Aspect of the Blue Dragonflight
, he wants to thank you for all you have done. This will also mean that he needs to create a "more permanent home" for
Tarecgosa
, which requires some work.
In order to do that, your primary mission is to retrieve the
烈焰之心
from
拉格纳罗斯
in
火焰之地
. However, you will also need to empower the Runestaff with
250 Smouldering Essences
. This whole process has to be done serially, as the final part with
Ragnaros
will only trigger once you've gathered them all.
This somehow correlates with the quest
灵魂盛宴
for
Shadowmourne
, only this will be done by siphoning dead bosses with the
阴燃
, by using the secondary effect of your staff:
虹吸精华
. It's important to mention that this can only done to the first 6 bosses. As such, you
CANNOT
siphon essences from
拉格纳罗斯
.

DISCLAIMER:
These numbers are based on Patch 4.2, and could - as such - be misleading as of today. I'll gladly update them, based on new experiences. It's worth mentioning that they were tweaked twice in hotfixes, making it harder to get the exact numbers:
2011-09-09
and
2011-09-06
.
拉格纳罗斯
THE BELOW ONLY APPLIES TO NORMAL DIFFICULTY.
On Heroic, the encounter is unaffected, and the
烈焰之心
is simply looted from
Ragnaros
afterwards.
Once you have all the
250 Smouldering Essences
, it's time to retrieve the
烈焰之心
. This will affect the encounter against
拉格纳罗斯
, in the following ways:
You, the wielder of the staff, will have the debuff
拉格纳罗斯之怒
.
Every minute, you'll get affected by
拉格纳罗斯之怒
, the debuff counting down from
5 seconds
. It is shown by a
地狱烈焰
-like effect.
This means that you'll have to stay away from everyone else when the effect happens, as every person within
8 yards
of you will be
knocked back
and take
heavy damage
.
You'll need to survive the
ENTIRE
encounter in order to be eligible to loot the
烈焰之心
.
The Heart spawns in the middle of the Lava Pool. Be sure to have your healers spam heal you at this point. Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you die here, and the looting is instant.
Once the Runestaff has been sufficiently empowered, and you have retrieved the
烈焰之心
, bring it to
Hallegosa
, who can be found where you originally met either
克里多尔米
or
齐拉多尔米
in your faction's capital.
出神入化
or
出神入化
Hallegosa
Kalecgos
Hallegosa
tells you that the ceremony of handing over the
烈焰之心
, and will accompany you to meet up with
Kalecgos
in your faction's major city (
奥格瑞玛
or
暴风城
). The ceremony is truly a sight to behold, and will leave a giant version of you sitting on top of Tarecgosa in the middle of your Faction Capital for a few hours. Not only that, but
蓝色幼龙
fly around the scene. Some of them can be spoken to, and explains the situation pretty nicely for those who pass by.
Still, there was much rejoicing, as
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖(公会版)
also gives the
whole guild
the lovely
小泰蕾苟萨
as a companion. The essence of
Tarecgosa
shall live forever -
with you
.
Epilogue
Sadly, patch
4.3
didn't bring any continuation to the storyline, but seeing as
Kalecgos
shows his worth in providing the needed help against
死亡之翼
, everything was not in vain. Not only that, the story also did a nice tie-in with the Caverns of Time related instances happening. We have no idea what happened to
Arygos
, but it would seem that - even though I promised not to delve into "Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects" - that his story ended there, and that the storylines were tied together. Somehow.
Still, rogues get to follow the real introduction of
拉希奥
, with the daggers
龙父之牙
(
戈拉德,龙王之暮
and
提里奥什,远古噩梦
). I hope you had a hand in completing
龙蛋仍在成长
in Badlands, so that
瑞亚的最后一枚卵
could be secured. I'll let you connect the dots.
However, for now, the story about
Tarecgosa
ended, and it would take
almost 12 years
before we finally get full closure on the story In the
Dragonflight
expansion. But, that part
really
is spectacular, to say the least.
Dragonflight - Soaring Among the Stars
A Lost Heart of Magic
What the Timeless Eye Unveiled
The Ascension of the Blue Aspect
The Heart and Souls of Flame
Soaring Among the Stars
Keeper of the Ossuary
Lest We Forget
What Still Remains
A Peaceful Farewell
Tarecgosa's Rest
Love Unending
Forget Her Not
Rhapsody in Blue
During our questing through the Dragon Isles, we naturally come about
Kalecgos
in the Azure Span, and help him try to gather the remaining members of the Blue Dragonflight, which had been both few in numbers and scattered throughout the world, after the fall of
Malygos
. He's being aided by an arcane simulacrum of
Sindragosa
, from before the dragons left. It's a really nice questline, focusing on family, unison and the responsibility of being the leader of a dragonflight.
Sadly, while there were lots of old and familiar dragons, there was no mention of
Tarecgosa
, at all. Considering her role in ensuring
Kalecgos
became the Blue Aspect, it felt really odd to leave out.
The first major patch,
10.1.0
, did however add
another
gigantic questline, focusing on the Blue Dragonflight, starting with
藏骨堂守护者
. It is given by
卡雷苟斯
at the Seat of the Aspects, and leads you to
The Veiled Ossuary
, at the northern part of
索德拉苏斯
to meet an old friend,
塞纳苟斯
. The entire thing spans quite a few questlines:
The Veiled Ossuary
(
藏骨堂守护者
to
失踪的蓝龙在哪里?
)
The Search for Blue Dragons
Crystalsong Forest
(
水晶中的悔恨
to
寂静之声
)
Theramore
(
污旗党
to
反思时刻
)
Booty Bay
(
藏宝海湾杂志
to
清偿债务
)
Jade Forest
(
风暖水清
to
蓝色是我最爱的颜色
)
Winterspring
(
魔法守护者
to
同归碧蓝
)
United Again
(
再度团聚
to
平静的告别
)
The
really
interesting part, however, is that there's
an entire bonus questline
, serving as a final farewell to
Tarecgosa
, if the player had
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
. In hindsight, this gives some understandable context as to why she wasn't mentioned earlier on. It starts with
泰蕾苟萨之眠
, and ends up giving us the
泰蕾苟萨的残响
, which lets us use
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
without
having the staff equiped!
I'd
really
recommend taking you time doing this properly. Not only does it reunite us with many other familiar faces from the past, but it also takes you across all of Azeroth. Lots of nostalgia, humor and thoughtful interactions.
Below, I'll cover a few quests of interest, before continuing to the
Tarecgosa-specific questline
in detail.
永志不忘
塞纳苟斯
塞纳苟斯
During this quest, we inspect - and update the causes of death - for various deceased members of the Blue Dragonflight. The
really
interesting part, comes when suddenly spotting how
Arygos
is mentioned: "Deceased - Slain by Infinite dragonflight".
This actually fits incredibly well, given the earlier mentioned inconsistencies between
Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects
and how the
Hour of Twilight
was meant to come to pass. It's also acts as a rather subtle foreshadowing, given the expansion's overarching sidestory with the
Infinite Dragonflight
.
残余之物
艾索雷苟斯
艾索雷苟斯
It's worth to note the details on both
玛里苟斯的残留精华
and
辛达苟萨的残留精华
, in relation to
泰蕾苟萨的残响
. There's obviously a huge difference, but it lays some important groundwork for the ritual therein.
泰蕾苟萨之眠
卡雷苟斯
卡雷苟斯
After saying our goodbyes to
Senegos
in
平静的告别
- thus ending the "public" part of the questline -
Kalecgos
approaches us with a special matter. One he has postponed for too long. One regarding
Tarecgosa
.
This has a lovely bit of callback to
the bonus dialogue
, that was available after the quest
可靠情报
(see more
here
), in which we had
our adventure
with
Tarecgosa
with
一窥究竟
.
Kalecgos
tells the following:
Kalecgos says
: I have learned much in this short time on the isles, friend. And there is something I must do. My sister, you are not forgotten to me. You never will be. But you deserve more than an eternity alone.
You feel a familiar presence envelope you.
Tarecgosa whispers
:
Kalec... my friend, tell him -- no, it can wait. It is something I must say myself.
Kalecgos says
: Tarecgosa's sacrifice was something which involved us both. I would be honored if you helped me send her to rest.
There an additional option, that serves as a short reminder of how
Tarecgosa
died, and why her essence was bound to the staff. Just in case we
forgot what happened almost 12 years ago
during
化为一体
.
(Optional) <Remind me of what happened to Tarecgosa>
Kalecgos says
: Tarecgosa was destined for greatness, but destiny was not kind to her. After the Cataclysm, we were betrayed by one of our own. He chose to serve Deathwing. My sister threw herself in front of an attack meant for me, and suffered a mortal wound in the process. To prolong her time on Azeroth, we bound her soul to a staff. One that you now have in your possession.
After that, Kalecgos sends you off to gather different things, so that Tarecgosa can properly be put to rest.
无尽的爱
卡雷苟斯
卡雷苟斯
Given alongside
莫失莫忘
, this quest is rather trivial, as it only involves gathering 20x
瞬息之砂
, which drops from various Time-Lost, found around The Temporal Conflux in south-eastern Thaldraszus.
The point is obviously to highlight the connection to the Bronze Dragonflight, in terms of the original creation of the staff, but not much besides that. I'd recommend gathering these after the first step of
莫失莫忘
- especially if you have your Hearthstone bound to Valdrakken - before continuing onward with the second step.
莫失莫忘
卡雷苟斯
卡雷苟斯
There's a lot more story going on in this quest, which is given alongside
无尽的爱
, taking you two different places, before meeting up with Kalecgos again.
This time, we are tasked with finding a replacement for a bough of Nordrassil, from which our staff was made. This is found in the Manaheart Flower, which we must rejuvenate with the aid of the Green Dragonflight. As such, we journey to Vakthros, and find a
脆弱的魔力之心
. Upon interacting with a lone
Manaheart Bloom
, surrounded by
火元素
s, we suddenly hear a familiar voice:
Tarecgosa says:
Know, mortal, that I do not resent our time together... nor Kalec's actions. I have seen so much of this world through your eyes. I could not imagine a world where our lives did not intersect.
Before traveling to the Ancient Bough to plant the
Manaheart Bloom
, remember that this is a good time to continue north to complete
无尽的爱
.
When we arrive, and pick up the empowered
绽放的魔力之心
, we hear Tarecgosa's familiar voice once again:
Tarecgosa says
: As the world changes -- and you change -- I stay stagnant. It is time for me to move on.
As a fun little bit of trivial, it makes perfect sense that
Manaheart Bloom
changes to
Verdant Manaheart
, given where we are. However, the interesting part is that a green dragon,
沃尔蒂萨
, stands close - most likely to ensure the success. We've seen this particular dragon twice before: Lastly, during the
艾泽拉斯之心
quest
不要闭眼
(as
沃尔蒂萨
) and - and this is the interesting part - all the way back, as a seemingly unrelated NPC, in
魔环
(as
沃尔蒂萨
). There's probably some untold story there, but it's still a really cool callback. Intentional or not.
We then head to Kalecgos, awaiting us at the Veiled Ossuary, outside the Tombstone room.
蓝色狂想曲
卡雷苟斯
卡雷苟斯
It's time. To prepare
Tarecgosa
's Tomb, we start by placing the
Manaheart Bloom
, after which
Kalecgos
starts.
Kalecgos says
: With the combined magic of the bronze and blue dragons, we should be able to transfer Tarecgosa's soul from the staff. If you could prepare the grave, I will start the ritual.
With the grave prepared, we signal
Kalecgos
to
开始仪式
, during which we focus our power to transfer the soul from
Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest
to the grave. A heartwarming interaction between
Kalecgos
and
Tarecgosa
takes place:
Kalecgos says
: Tarecgosa, my dear sister. I feel as though I am still learning from you, despite being the teacher. Your absence is one that weighs heavily on my heart. I wish I could fly in the same skies as you once again. But clinging to an unchangeable past in hopes that fate may be kind is a fruitless dream. I realize this now. It will be the memories I have of you that will define my own future.
Tarecgosa says
: Kalec, my dear brother. I wish for you to know one thing. I am proud of you.
Kalecgos says
: I -- I'm so sorry… for failing you…
Tarecgosa says
: It was my choice -- there is a world that needs you out there now, my wingmate. And I know you will guide our kin into the brightest future. It is time for my chapter to end.
Kalecgos says
: Farewell, Tarecgosa. A dear sister, hero, student and teacher. Though blood does not bind us, you will always be family. May your soul find its place soaring among the stars.
With the ritual completed, we're given
泰蕾苟萨的残响
, which grants us
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
, without the need of
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
. A very neat reward - especially given that it's usable with
驭空术
!
What You Will Have Experienced
Lots of things happens during the questline, but it's always great to have a list to brag with. It's not necessarily in chronological order, but it's a list, never the less.
Earned the amazing staff
巨龙之怒,泰蕾苟萨的寄魂杖
!
You will be able to use
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
, and later
without using the staff
(
泰蕾苟萨的幻影
), which is compatible with
驭空术
!
Be the first mortal
ever
to have fused their essence with a dragon. In this case, the dragon
Tarecgosa
.
The death of
拉格纳罗斯
, and his minions in
火焰之地
- especially
管理者鹿盔
.
Disrupting a ritual that would make
Nordrassil
burst in flame - and we cannot let that happen twice!
Witnessing
卡雷苟斯
' ascension as the new Aspect of Magic and leader of the Blue Dragonflight.
Being able to go back to
Coldarra
, as the phased scene from
结盟
still seems to remain. A very nice unique setting!
You, and all of your guildies, gets the cute little companion
小泰蕾苟萨
.
... and much more!

Credits
Big shout-outs go to the following, for making this guide possible:
<
Myth
> of EU-Turalyon
- My
AWESOME
guild, which made it possible for me to start the quest in the first place. Without you guys, I probably wouldn't have started writing this guide at all.
The Wowhead Database and Users
- For obvious reasons. Without the various spells and items and their comments from the users, a lot of the speculation would have been based on nothing.
The Wowhead Staff
- Quite a few of the other staffers actually:
ArgentSun
- For bashing my head in with all kinds of editorial formatting, hints, tips and tricks.
Neutronimity
- Same as above, plus digging out models with me, and the like.
Miyari
- Making the very early quest-list, that turned out to be the backbone for this.
Ashelia
- Letting me have a go at the Dragonwrath-part of the Patch 4.2 guide.
Anshlun
- Helping with getting the guide updated, in ways I could not.
奥比
- For refuelling my hate towards the Black Dragonflight, and feeling pity towards what the Blue Dragonflight has gone through.
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
- Because, as we all know,
42
is the answer to life, the universe and everything - as well as being the id of this guide, AND 10 times the patch number in which the staff was introduced.
Barney Stinson
- Because...
well

Heyo Gnub,
Beautiful guide. Tons of information but laid out very very well. I think my favorite feature about the guide are the dynamic tables of contents that float on the right hand side. Even thought it takes years to scroll through the guide itself, you can click on what you think you want, and the guide takes you there.
Instead of listing a disclaimer at the top of the guide, which warns people about all the spoilers, you should just use the \ tag and put the
entire
guide in a spoiler box! Just kidding of course =P
Tasty looking guide over all, wouldn't expect anything else! ^_^

Thanks a lot for this guide, I am the first in our guild to get it and currently 21/25 living embers. And I had little info about what would have to be done next, so this is a big help.
评论来自
Gnub
Appreciate all the positive feedback - be sure to contribute with additional information if I, for some reason, missed something :)
I'm going to go a bit more into depth on my current step (
光阴苦短
) in regards to drop-rates as the next update, as it's not really as bad as it looks (1000!). I actually like what they did here, rather than the 25 or so drops from previous legendaries.

Hey mate.
GREAT guide. Can't be stressed enough.
One thing I'd like to know:
Is it possible for multiple toons to do the quest at the same time?
What I mean is, that one toon is done with gathering Eternals, and starts to do the "charge a focus" quest and/or Cinders quest, does the boss still drop Eternals for those on stage 1 of the quest?
评论来自
Rekijan
As far as drop-rates go, the amount of Seething Cinder per boss-kill vary raid size and difficulty, and should be expected to fall within these numbers:
Is this an estimate? Or can you confirm those numbers?

Only one thing what I want to say:

Runawaynow
I think the range on your 10 man quantities of
沸燃之烬
are too large. You can refer to
this
post which I will continue to maintain for our 10 man raid. The range I've seen reported for regular 10 man bosses is
18-23
and for heroic
23-26
. Small data sets from the comments, but interestingly enough, the drop amounts listed by Wowhead per boss seem to match those ranges, showing
18-26
amounts before jumping to 25 man quantities, which appear to range from
48-66
though I am unaware of the individual difficulty ranges.

Thanks for the great guide! One question: when the staff is upgraded (or traded-in), does it lose its gems and enchants?

Although I was forced here by the author I have to admit the guide is top-notch, and leaves nothing uncovered as far as I can tell. Well written, well laid out with everything you could want from such a guide.
Will give you thanks for writing it Gnub if you give me thanks for not pulling rank and taking that first staff from you :P
Seriously... Awesome guide.

Your guide doesn't mention the fact that you have to survive the entire encounter with Ragnaros while attempting to retrieve the Heart of Ragnaros or you fail and have to try again.
That is where I've read in several locations... if that's not the case, feel free to let me know. :)
Edit: The guide does now indeed show the fact that you have to survive the encounter under the Ragnaros tab in Phase 3.

TY again for this great guide. Personally I don't think I'd ever been able to open the portal to Volcanus if not for your guide :)

Sorry to interrupt your glee again mate - but the info about dragon for in:
Tarecgosa's Visage - Legendary Dragon Form
should probably also be updated :)

Thank you very much for this excellent guide, and congratulations on your staff! I'm just about to start on Seething Cinders myself, and I greatly appreciate the detailed info you've given. :)

Thanks so much for this guide! The guild and I finished this staff last night 11-16-2011 (10 man guild) and your guide really made it less insane, as well as giving me well written instructions I could use to warn my guildies what needed to happen next, etc. Hallegosa was in the cathedral area.
Well done!
(Also, I LOVE that Visage of Tarecgosa works as a land mount, and works in macros with /cast Visage of Tarecgosa)

Concerning drop-rates for Smouldering Essences:
Since I didn't get to finish it before 4.3 I've been pugging some FL for remaining Essences (currently 150/250), and after a clear of the first 6 bosses I gained 23 total, where Shannox only dropped 3, where you show 4-6. I have personally never seen more than 5 btw.
On our 10man hc kills back in 4.2, I've seen drop range from 7-9, where the guide shows 7-8.
Great to see you keep polishing this one off, and I think I speak for the community when I praise this as the best guide ever. Well done mate :)

During our Ragnaros fight for

we wiped but I used Invisibility to survive and mass res. I still had my

buff and once we started the fight again it gave me an additional buff with its own timer.

This is an amazing guide, Gnub. Your passion for completing this staff overflowed into the guide.
I've been intending to do this for a while, but for those who have completed it:
Create a new directory in your Addons folder, call it something like Dragonwrath. In this directory create two files with contents as follows:
File
Dragonwrath.toc
## Interface: 40300
## Title: Dragonwrath
## Version: 1
## Author: CaoimheX
## Notes: Silly little addon to play a sound when Dragonwrath emotes
Dragonwrath.lua
File
Dragonwrath.lua
local eventFrame = CreateFrame("Frame")
eventFrame:RegisterEvent("CHAT_MSG_TEXT_EMOTE")
eventFrame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, arg1, arg2)
if arg1 == "The warm embrace of Tarecgosa's presence encircles you." then
PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Creature\\Tarecgosa\\VO_Quest_42_Tarecgosa_Whisper_B_01.ogg")
end
end)
Now, whenever your staff emotes
"The warm embrace of Tarecgosa's presence encircles you."
, the sound clip of Tarecgosa saying, "I am with you, always", will be played.

I am currently on the last collecting phase (Smoldering Essences) and have been running 10H for the past couple of weeks and it seems the drop rate that I have been getting is 7-9, not 7-8. I realize that the +1 may not seem like a whole lot but I though everyone would like to know.
I do have a question about
烈焰之心
though. I have heard you can only loot it from Normal mode only?
Note: only 42 Essences left, then a Rag kill and I AM DONE! Woot.

Hello, great guide, been following it myself, but I have been stuck on the Delegation quest while soloing.
I was wondering if anyone else have had this problem?
Shannox- I can't pick up the shards, boss and adds keep breaking the loot process, and they de-spawn awfully quickly. They aren't up for 20 seconds and they are gone, so that rules out wipe/run in. (Treants don't taunt off me for some reason too).
Alysrazor - No problems, just stayed on the ground till I collected what I needed.
Lord Rhyolith - I can't see any shards at all. I have my Treants taunting so I can run around while searching. Wondering if a mechanic needs to trigger first? As the Shards of Torment don't spawn while I'm Tanking. Spent 5 min just running around looking for 1 shard.
Beth'tilac - I haven't tried this yet. Will update later.
But so far looks like certain classes might have more trouble doing this quest solo.

Soloing the chain is walk in the park until "Delegation" quest. Here are some tips.
Autoloot will be very useful for taking the fragments. Only the fragment looting is interruptible. You can complete the quest on any difficulty. I suggest not to kill any bosses while taking the shards since after delegation you are going to start collecting cinders from bosses. If you take the easy way and collect the charged shards on normal change the difficulty before killing Volcanus since killing it on a difficulty will save you to that difficulty.
Rhyolith: Just take the shard from the edge of island and drop them down. Kill the adds so they can not interrupt you.
Alysrazor: Don't fly and wait for the eggs to spawn. Kill the adds so they can't interrupt you.Kill the eggs and loot. When Alysrazor lands and gains energy you can drop the shard.
Shannox: You should not have the aggro because Shannox does not spawn traps to his main target. You should have some kind of pet. Soloed this with druids force of nature but an intelligent pet with a control bar will be much more easier. Because having boss's aggro is not enough your pet should also get trapped so you can kill the trap and get the shards.
Beth'tilac: Change the difficulty to 10-m if it is not already.
If you insist on heroic: You should kill every Cinderweb Spinner because if not killed they use a 20-30 sec stun ability and if there is more than one they can chain stun you to your death. In heroic 10-man-h they come in pairs. Since the small adds spawn a pool upon their death you should kill them away from Cinderweb Drone. Kill the Drone get the shards if you are fast enough you can take the last rope to the top before the first Smoldering Devastation. You will drop down kill the next Spinner, get back up and get your charged shard.

Having a Mage's Invisibility / Greater Invisibility or a Invisibility potion is very handy during the Delegation section of the quest line just in case something goes wrong as it allows you to reset the fight. Also if you find yourself unable to pick up fragments due to being constantly attacked you can get them to spawn and then reset the fight by using a Invis Pot / Mage spell and they should still be on the ground. You may also use them to end the fight without killing the bosses after you get the Focus from each boss to open the Circle of Thorns, after you get them you will also need a fresh kill on the first 4 bosses later in the quest chain.

Tip 1 - don't forget to loot the eye after you complete the 1st quest, "Anachronos".
Tip 2 - The Nexus is located at the bottom of the structure in Coldarra. I have trouble remembering which is which.

Gnub my friend, that is a well written, super informative guide, and I'm sad I never got to finish this questline when my friends guild had the option to do so :/ (Arcane Mage back then)
This is a 10/10 guide, (started playing again 2 weeks ago, and got my first 100 lvl Lock) and I'm gonna follow this guides glorious quest, trying to solo for this legendary goodness! I wish you're doing well, and keep up the awesome work! Dark Lady watches over you . . . /bow

Does anyone know if this staff is still obtainable in Legion? I just killed a molten lord and didn't get the quest.

I know that everyone's probably done this to death, but I'm spending some time with my Lvl 101 fire mage for the first time in a while, and thought I'd do the legendary staff quest line for a bit of fun. I've done all the pre reqs..Four winds, Blackrock Caverns, Defender of a Shattered World achieve, and I've cleared out Molten Lords...no quest drop...any ideas anyone..? Thanks in advance..Roseale

Thanks for the guide, i just followed it, took a few weeks to do everything, and tonight i'll get my staff. Thanks again, and it does still work, if anyone wants to take the time to get it. Did it with my druid, btw.

I realise it's completely unlikely that I'll get a response to this, but I have this questline on my Druid, but my mage (Same realm & faction) is unable to pick up the starter quest, despite already clearing ALL the raids in this tier outside of FL/DS. Can someone point me in the right direction? Zidormi is NOT in Grommash hold - (Neither is Sylvannas), and it doesn't come up when I clear Molten Lords OR the 5 pack patrols. Help please?

This quest chain has been very badly nerf'd as of 8.2.5.
With the inclusion of firelands Timewalking the highest difficulty you can now enter the raid on is 10Hc due to the flex mode scaling, which essentially halves your item pickup rate for some of the collection quest and thus, nearly doubling the time it takes to finish the questchain

I really, really wish this would be updated after the Timewalking changes.

This quest is available for Dracthyr Horde in Stormwind. It is a pain to do but the quest in there.
Level 60 Horde Dracthyr Evoker.

How long would this roughly take from start to finish? Given the raid farming required.

only thing is, where u go when u use all the 4 charged foci and go in i guess a portal and i guess this "Inside the Anvil of Conflagration" that looks like its described for when it was current, what about for like a max lvl toon (at this point in time lvl 70) the enemies in there can u just insta burn them like you would naturally do due to being massively overpowed to the raid or do they require "special dances" too like the main bosses did to get the charged foci

Great guide, has been immensely helpful so far.
I'm here to add a bit of extra information for the "Time Grows Short" stage/questline!
Cataclysm Timewalking features Firelands as the Timewalking Raid, and you can get Seething Cinders from Normal, Heroic,
and
Timewalking Firelands separately! 3 full instances in one week!

Maybe I'm blind, so ignore me if it's a stupid question, haha.
Is this available when playing as a hunter? Comments from 2016 are stating it's only available if you play as druids, mages, priests, shaman, and warlocks- But is that still the case today?
