Comment by Mzbehavin

this boss is a group boss, so make sure you kill her whilst still in group, will probably be sol-able later on due to gear. drink the potion and then you will see the invisible lock.

Comment by Essenmir

Have to buy the Recipe: skaggldrynk of Patricia Egan

Comment by varenne

This quest is special

You need to go to the Vault of the Wardens dungeon on normal/heroic/mythic difficulty.
But it is not some generic dungeon run

You have to take 1xSkaggldrynk with you

Inside the dungeon kill 2 bosses and use Skaggldrynk near the closed door after Inquisitor Tormentorum at 2-nd floor (north room) . Door will open and you can kill Grimoira. She also drops Vault of the Wardens: Bendy Glass Tubes

Here is my main Legion Alchemy post: Legion Alchemist

Comment by Niftyality

If you don't do this on your way to Cordana and your group skips the watcher by the elevator on their way through the shadows, that npc will pull you into combat and you will be unable to complete this quest.

MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS BEFORE YOUR GROUP LEAVES THE DEMON WARD.

Comment by f07gano

You must drink your potion before you can open the door. It took me a sad amount of time to realize why the door was closed :D

Comment by evanbloom

This doesn't work with Mage invisibility :(

Comment by Pseudonaja

After inquisitor you need to look on map, go to the north gate in the demon ward and pop ur skaggeldrynk, open the gate and then make sure u kill Grimoira.

If you use dungeon finder, you have to ask them to kill it, or they will most likely skip it and go straight for cordana.

Comment by RacerLicht

Be aware:
It seems that it takes all of your Skaggldrynk potions if you use it for your quest ....
So watch out...

Aho!
Licht

Comment by dreadneck

You have to get hit by her large, green frontal cone ability it seems like. I killed her, and didn't get hit by poison, meaning I had to redo the entire thing over. :(

Comment by 1170496

Good way to get the LFG group to do this is to say "There's a bonus boss behind this door" and then proceed to be the cool guy in the group giving extra stuff to people ;)

Comment by sushibar

Well, at this point my entire Alchemy leveling process comes to a dead halt. I've run this several times on my main now, and not once has anyone done this optional boss.
All the time and gold spent so far, just so I can make healing and mana potions. Flasks not an option any more. :(

Comment by lilla

I stood in the green puke, killed Grimoira, but didn't get Bendy Glass Tubes followup quest. I was able to go on to complete this, but never got Bendy Glass Tubes when I looted. Any idea what went wrong?

Comment by nilleftw

Very easy to solo as an affliction warlock (836) in Heroic. My group didn't want to help me so I gave it a shot. Just make sure to use Siphon Life and heal your pet when it gets focused (you can also get focused, only damage in the entire fight) and you'll kill her in five or so minutes.

Don't forget to walk in her cone shaped bile to fill your flask for the quest.

Comment by Boxofbeer

First of all, obtain Skaggldrynk potion before you join a group th instance. You can craft it yourself or buy at AH.
Then, join a group to Vault of the Wardens (normal, heroic and mythic are all ok). Proceed to Inquisitor Tormentorum boss and when you done with him, look at the north wall, where the door is. Drink up your Skaggldrynk, unlock rune and open the door. There will be Grimoira boss and you have to defeat her for quest. In cause it's an instance boss, your group must help you to defeat her (seems, some specs can solo it). Dont forget to loot up Bendy Glass Tubes from her body, that's needed for next alchemy quest — Vault of the Wardens: Bendy Glass Tubes.
You still need to defeat Cordana Felsong (last boss), so dont leave asap, keep moving.

Hello Wow Legion Players :-)

I made a video guide for this quest.
It explain everything you need to know for completing the quest Demon's Bile.

Peace out
Game Over

Comment by Swordlily

Did the Dungeon, didn`t get the boss. Either Blizz hate professions or pve players or both or they need a braintransplant. Are they actually trying to make us quit playing the game? Not Nice to make a grown woman cry...

Comment by Seramore

Getting to do this quest is fairly annoying, if you're like me who's too impatient to form a group or find people to run this with and have a class that can tank, you can do this yourself. Solo up to Inquisitor on normal, walk into the room, and kill the mini boss yourself. You can then either continue soloing the dungeon and kill Cordona, or you can do what I did and just queue up for Heroic and complete the kill with a group. It's more lengthy than simply forming your own group to do the quest but I had been sitting on this quest for a few weeks and just wanted to get it out of the way.

Comment by opnseason

Blizzard might as well take away professions after this xpac. Most of them are useless at this point or almost impossible to lvl up unless you are so uber of a player. If you are just a casual player that doesn't pvp forget it you will never be able to lvl your profession (you may get to 800 by lvling through Darkmoon Faire) but you will never get anything worth a damn. This game use to be fun and now it caters more to the PVP and UBER player not the casual gamer just have a good time. You get made fun of if you dps is "low" ever kicked. I'm I don't give a damn what a persons dps. Part of gaming is to have fun when did that change? Now Blizz has made it where you can not finish up profession quest because it entails an extra boss in a dungeon or something of that nature. I have run this dungeon three times and all three times been ignored or been told I have to pay if I want to kill this extra boss for my quest.

Comment by 1753417

Having read all the comments, I tried a different approach that worked perfectly.

First, let me say that this approach works ONLY if you are able to solo a single level 111 elite demon. Here's what I did:

1. Join a dungeon group and go through the entire dungeon, beating the last boss.
2. After the dungeon group disbands, you can then do Grimoira ENTIRELY on your own:
A. Backtrack up the dungeon, being careful to avoid the patrolling mobs along the way. The best way to do this is to follow them up the ramp, and then hide in an alcove by the "Street Lamp" statue, while they turn around and pass down the other way. The mobs generally can't be targeted unless they are in the light given off by the "Street Lamp"-type statues. The mobs are all level 110 elite, so you should be able to take two on at once, but not more than two. If you aggro more than two, just die and start over. Note -- if you aggro a mob, you MUST kill it or die. Fearing them an running to an elevator doesn't work, as you'll get tagged as being in combat even if you're on another floor. While in combat you can not drink the "Spirit World" flask and can not open Grimoire's door without drinking the "Spirit World" flask. If this happens, you must die and start over.
B. Right before the elevator, you will aggro and must fight and kill one level 110 elite.
C. Go up the elevator, and find your way to the north end of the room. The door there will have pink/purple runes over it. Drink the flask and click on the runes that appear on the center of the door and the door will open into Grimoira's room.
D. Grimoria is a single level 111 elite boss, who will draw you to her feet during the fight. While the fight is long, you can beat her if you have ample sources of healing.

I did this rather easily (full health at the end of the fight) as a gear level 870 discipline priest.

Comment by nyymi

Soloed her today with 788 Protection Paladin. Took three attempts. Definitely solo-able with some classes and specs, even with subpar gear, but will of course take forever.

Comment by Wimbleton

Congrats to all who have soloed her and I'm sure my Uber Afflock could take her as well. But he's not the Alchemist, so that doesn't do me any good. The first group I asked to do Grimoira said "Sure," but when we got there, they just ignored me and moved on. Some PUGs aren't perfect. The second group declined, but politely. The third group no habla inglese but they were a lot of fun. Danced through the whole instance. The fourth group had a retarded healer and then we couldn't get another so everyone left. So I thought I'd just go ahead and solo a 111 Elite. Lasted about 42 seconds, healing myself all the way. Well, wasn't that special?

So at this point I'm stuck. I can't go through another eye exam in that pit of darkness, and I'm not feeling very charitable about our friends in Irvine. What are the options? Level a Pally Alchemist? Level another Afflock? Abandon Inscription and level my 110 through Alchemy? Then what do I do about inscription?

There must be a solution here somewhere. I wrote Blizz a letter. I'm sure they'll respond. Until then I won't be doing much in the way of Alchemy and certainly won't be going back to that dungeon.

Edit: Thought I'd give it two more chances. The first time, everyone was in favor of this extra encounter even if they didn't get anything out of it. We had no trouble and by now I'm the lead DPS with 875 but we got to Grimoira's door with everything in place and...I couldn't open the door. I had the sloppy drink, it made me invisible or whatever and the plan simply didn't work. OK, so nothing's perfect, right. Patience. Thanked everyone and then an odd thing happened. One of the other players said: "I'm not an Alchemist but every group I've tried that with has failed."
Second try. Initial grumbling but then everyone seemed interested in a "boss" they hadn't even seen yet much less killed. We got to the door with no trouble, I drank the Kool Aid and....nothing happened. At that point the tank bailed and the remaining members of the group blamed that on me.

Would whoever thought this up please send us the proof that you have mastered the use of the Katana? We'll say nice things about you at the funeral.

Is extremely true. WE DON'T CARE HOW TO SOLO THE BOSS YOU GUYS. SO WHAT. We just want to get the damn quest done. Holy moses.

Comment by spinhell

Pretty sure you have to kill all the bosses except the last boss before you use your Skaggldrynk for the lock to actually appear for you to click. otherwise it keeps kicking you out of the spirit world.

Comment by chibinerd

So I currently having an issue with the process, I popped the skaggyldrynk and found the door with the rune, however when I right click on the rune it said invalid target. Is the quest bugged?

Comment by Malissa88

I got into a group and they ignored my request to do this quest. So at the end of the dungeon i went back and solo'd it as a 910 ilvl warlock on heroic. Little trial and error getting back through the spider area but its soloable.

Comment by Azshen

I've run this twice now and both groups were more than willing to help. If they've done it before, they understand. I failed twice because the quest requirements aren't really all that clear..

-Bring and use ONE Skaggldrynk to see and open the locked door
-Get hit by one of the boss's green orbs
-Turn in!

Comment by dark6mac

If you play tank then you're in luck. You can probably solo this dungeon.
I decided to give it a go while waiting in queue for over an hour.
As a Vengeance Demon Hunter you can do it for sure at ilvl 840, probably even lower than that.

IMPORTANT bring your Skaggldrynk as you cannot make it on the spot - don't repeat my mistakes :D

Entrance to Vault of the Wardens is located at those coords
TomTom:
/way Azsuna 48.0 82.5 Vault of the Wardens

You'll need to defeat first boss Tirathon Saltheril.
And then after going down the elevator the second boss Inquisitor Tormentorum.

VERY IMPORTANT you have to kill Inquisitor Tormentorum, and only after that you can go to doors leading to Vault of Law - again don't make the same mistakes I did :D

Stand in front of the doors and use your Skaggldrynk - a rune will show on the doors which you'll need to click on.
The doors will open and you'll immediately loose the invisibility.

Go and fight the boss Grimoira.
You'll need to be hit by one of her abilities to Submerge the Demonsbreath Crucible in Grimoira's bile.
The green goo moving on ground will do just fine.
After that just kill her.

She also drops Bendy Glass Tubes and that starts Vault of the Wardens: Bendy Glass Tubes quest.

After that you can either finish up the dungeon or you can queue and do it in group - although as I said in the begining, wait times can go anywhere from few seconds to few hours.

I'll post a video when I'll have a chance to record it.
Edit: So here's the video

Good luck and have fun.

Comment by Dumdeedum

I was a little worried about trying to solo her on normal mode with my fire mage since they're not known for their self-heals, but at 910 ilvl it was easy. Don't think I went under 75% health, and it's an alt and I'm pretty terrible at the class, so it's definitely not my leet skillz.

Definitely not the bottleneck it once was anyway.

Comment by NickMyers

Getting hit by her attack that submerges the crucible in the bile is a pretty useful piece of information. I wish more people would up vote comments like that, instead of ones complaining about professions in legions or telling you to bring the skaggyldrynk. which if you open the quest it says on your screen 3 times.

Comment by Oneiro

You need to kill Inquisitor Tormentorum (2nd boss) before you are able to open the door! I wasted 2 just by thinking I was being blind. After killing the Inquisitor, the lock was impossible to miss.

Comment by Mirayla

this was easily solo'd after the group did there thing... she doesn't have much health. For perspective sake, I did this as a resto druid with a 890 iLvl.

Comment by Guldoran

The quest does not tell you everything you need to do. For example, it does not tell you that you need to down the boss inquisitor tormentorum first to even be able to see the lock on the door after you use the potion. So what happens? You probably end up using the potion, which by the way has a 10 minute cool down, and realize the lock is not there. Not only did you waste a potion AND your time, but you also have to come outside of the game (a very common thing I had to do all throughout Legion) to figure out how to complete the quest. This should not happen during the questing experience. You should not feel like you must go outside of the game to figure out how to complete something within it. I did not have a good experience with this quest, and the quest line it is a part of greatly discouraged me from picking up alchemy again or picking up another profession in the future. If the profession quests in BFA are anything like this, I very well may just ignore them. If the overall experience in BFA is like the one I had in Legion (always left confused and unknowing what to do during many quests and moments) then I probably will not invest much time into the expansion. The overall WoW experience at this point needs much improving.

Comment by Jchivato

I want to note that I had a similar problem with the group not acknowledging the need for the quest. However, after completing the dungeon, I went back on my own and killed her to complete the quest (Subtlety rogue iLevel 929).

Comment by Celordyn

Also, if you backtrack after your group clears it, drop the light of elune you used to backtrack, it keeps you from using the potion. I was about to abandon alchemy, delete my characters,quite WoW, smash my computer and join a monestary I was so frustrated with this quest. Cleared the place three times, used the drink at the wrong time once, wrong imp mother. Ten minute CD. Wrong door the second time, third time I had a couple of incredibly patient party members that helped me figure it out.

Comment by felfirebolt

So as many people have already said, this can be a very frustrating quest for multiple reasons. One final way this quest tried to troll me was—after mistakenly using one Skaggldrynk before killing Tormentorum and seeing no lock to open—when I tried to use the second skaggldrynk that had finally come off cooldown after killing Cordana. When I did so I received the error message "You can't do that yet". About to give up hope after leading my group on a wild goose chase I tried a /reload to no avail, then out of desperation quickly relogged and it indeed allowed me to use the potion and open the door.

tl;dr if for some reason you can't use your Skaggldrynk if it's off cooldown, try relogging.

Comment by Zhaozeng

So here's a piece of advice for everyone that can't get groups to down the extra boss. Fly out and solo the normal dungeon version up to the boss (making sure you do everything needed to complete the quest including standing in the cone, etc). Then leave the instance and queue for the heroic to kill Cordana. Unless you're a tank or a pet class in which case you'll probably be able to beat her solo as well. I was able to at least kill the bosses up to and including the alchemy boss as a fire mage.

Comment by Wimbleton

Sadly the Demon's Bile part of it isn't working now. Everything else up to that worked fine this evening but then Grimoira just lies there; no bile, no nothing. Clicking on her does nothing; clicking on the crucible does nothing, clicking anywhere does nothing and oh wait - there's the solution: the dungeon crashed and disconnected all of us. What fun! Skip this turkey. It's often broken and we all know the guys in Irvine aren't going to fix it now.

11/13/2018 So I went back for one more shot with my 113 Fury (level 233) and the early parts of the event were easy but I just ran out of potion cooldowns on Cordana and I'm done with this cycle. All I wanted to do was to be able to provide my alts with an Alchemist who could help them level more easily. Sure, move quickly through BofA, send them potions from that and it has the same effect, right? OK but it makes the whole Legion "Get 'em into tough dungeons and weed out the wimps" concept pretty much a failure from my point of view. Good for boot camp, sure, but you don't need to go through boot camp to get a driver's license. Could I have whacked Cordana in Prot mode? Probably, but now there just isn't any more time to allot to this. Clever idea I guess but it sure could use some fine tuning.

Comment by Dreadalous

Did this just now boosting my alt on my second account. Having my alt on follow and running them over green poo on the floor worked fine but I also made sure the alt tagged the boss just in case as some elements of the game haven't previously acknowledged quest criteria completion when I didn't tag . Might have been a quiet fix

Also, if you backtrack after your group clears it, drop the light of elune you used to backtrack, it keeps you from using the potion...

Thank you! I was going nuts trying to figure out why I couldn't drink the potion. Original post upvoted.

So since this quest is a part of irrelevant content at this point, I would like to point out that the one very crucial problem with this is that it's not terribly clear that Inquisitor Tormentorum MUST be killed in order to access again if the first attempt goes too fast and you don't get credit or something else goes awry. I spent several Skaggldrynks and 2 GM tickets trying to figure this out and all they told me was "lol nope, nothing wrong" even when I specifically asked if I needed a specific boss down before retrying.

Edit: Also, DO NOT ABANDON Vault of the Wardens: Bendy Glass Tubes! It seems as though beating her again does not start it again for you.

So here's how to complete the alchemy quest:

1. buy or craft a Skaggldrynk
2. After taking the first elevator and defeating the boss on that level, there will be a locked door with a purple glowing circle. Use your Skaggldrynk to enter stealth and unlock it.
3. When fighting the quest boss she casts an AOE cone of green fel bile. Stand in it, don't avoid it--until you've doused the quest item in it (this will happen automatically, no need to click anything).
4. Kill the fat demon lady and the last boss of the dungeon also.

Complete :) Hope this helps some of you.

There are plenty of good details that are still accurate for how to reach the boss... but one key point must be considered.

There are a dozen ways to go invisible. You are told specifically about one that is based in alchemy for a reason.
Only going invisible using the alchemy potion Skaggldrynk will allow you to actually open the rune lock.

Going invis other ways will let you SEE the lock, but not interact with it. That is not a glitch... you have to use your alch potion.

As for reaching her, you're shown exactly where on your dungeon map.

Here is an interesting tidbit. If you do Cordana first, and then come back to do this boss,,,,it will not allow you to drink your Skagg. You have to do it right after killing the inquisitor. I had to redo the dungeon up to this point to do this. What a waste.

Comment by mooklik

If you kill Cordana Felsong down the bottom, and still have the Elune's Light item, you will be unable to drink the Skaggldrynk, it will say "You can't use that yet" and you'll be unable to open the door. Just get rid of the light then you can drink.

Comment by midnitepixy

The quest seems either bugged or level capped below 50. Myself and one other tried to do it 3 times today. Every time the lock was clicked it said "invalid target".
Anyone else having this issue?

Comment by nak0n

I just did this quest with my lvl55 druid. I was able to drink the Skaggldrynk in front of the door in the instance (but unable to drink it anywhere else; did it on normal), then kill Grimoira (don't kill her too fast, you have to be hit by one of her abilities; the AOE she puts on the ground works) and also loot another quest item from her body).

Comment by simp

If you level up past 50 this quest (and others past it) cannot be finished as the Skaggldrynk requires you to be 50 or below to drink and open the door. submitted a ticket and got no help ...

Comment by Confidence

To access Grimoira, you must use Skaggldrynk in order to open the northern doorway that leads to the version of Grimoira needed for this quest.
To get credit for "Submerg the Demonsbreath Crucible in Grimoira's bile," you MUST allow her to hit you with her green cone AoE BEFORE KILLING HER.

Comment by TheLuckyLurker

Did this today and worked just fine. Drank Skaggldrynk in front of the door, let Grimoira slap me about a bit, throw up on me...and was done.

As of February 2022, you can solo this quest.
Before you go, bring at least one Skaggldrynk with you.
The tool tip for Skaggldrynk reads that it is ineffective above level 50.
This has been fixed, at least for this quest, so it now works if you are above level 50.
Go to the Vault of the Wardens dungeon in Azsuna on any dungeon difficulty level.
The entrance is located in Azsuna, near Watchers' Aerie flight path at /way 48.1 82.1

Inside the dungeon, kill the first boss, Tirathon Saltheril, on the main floor.
Take the elevator down to the lower chamber, careful not to fall down before the lift rises.
In that chamber, kill Inquisitor Tormentorum.
Go to the north door in that chamber, which is locked.
It leads to the chamber, Vault of Law, where Grimoira is located.
While standing in front of that door, use the Skaggldrynk and open the rune lock on the door.

Enter the Vault of Law but do not kill Grimoria until you obtain Bile Credit.
Depending on your level and your iLvL gear, you may need to remove some, or all of your gear
and/or dismiss your minion/pet to prevent her from dying too quickly.

To obtain Bile Credit, right click on Lined Demonsbreath Crucible during the fight.
Grimoria uses Mortar which shoots out green globs, use Lined Demonsbreath Crucible and get hit by a green glob to get credit
"1/1 Submerge the Demonsbreath Crucible in Grimoria's bile."
Now it is safe to kill her, and she will drop Vault of the Wardens: Bendy Glass Tubes, needed to continue the alchemy quest line.
Finally, to complete the quest, kill the other 2 bosses on that floor and take the second elevator down to the chamber and kill Cordana Felsong.

I wrote this comment because I followed the instructions of the highest rated comment, which was excellent, but it failed to mention the
part about not killing Grimoria until after you submerge the Demonsbreath Crucible in Grimoria's bile.

Hope this helps you from having to run the dungeon twice, like I did.

Comment by zaymaa

You won't be able to drink and see the lock if you are holding the light that illuminates the spiders and stuff down in the basement. Be sure to drop the light at the door.

Comment by Ashirin

Okay I was almost flipping my table here. I did about everything wrong that you could do wrong and spent almost 2 hours doing this. So here's a step by step guide.

1. Buy 2 Skaggldrynk on the Auction House (or buy materials and craft it yourself. The drink was cheaper for me. why 2? just in case something goes wrong)
2. Go to Vault of the Wardens set the difficulty to normal heroic or mythic. It doesn't matter. reset the dungeon if you ran it previously,
3. Kill Tirathon Saltheril the first boss and go down the elevator to kill Inquisitor Tormentorum the second boss.
4. Head to the north and use your Skaggldrynk. you will see a rune on the door, click that and enter.
5. Do not attack Grimoira you do not want to oneshot her at level 60 or higher. just run into her and let her attack you.
6. Stand in the green cone and wait until Lined Demonsbreath Crucible in your questlog is done. For me it took her to charm me a while, while I was standing in the puddle. not sure what the trigger is. At maxlevel you should take no damage from this.
7. Kill her.
8. Loot her for Bendy Glass Tubes. You need this for the next Alchemy quest.
9. Kill the other two bosses and head down to the final boss.
10. Port back to Dalaran, turn in quest.

The Lined Demonsbreath Crucible part took me almost two hours to get right. At first I ignored it, then I thought you would use it after her death... porting around cost me so much time. don't do it like I did.

Vault of the Wardens: Demon's Bile

Craft a Skaggldrynk, then go to the Vault of the Wardens and bathe the crucible in the bile of Grimoira.

	Submerge the Demonsbreath Crucible in Grimoira's bile (1)
	Grimoira slain (1)
	Cordana Felsong slain (1)
	Door Credit slain (1)
	Skaggldrynk (1)

Provided item:

	Lined Demonsbreath Crucible (1)

Description

The key to a crucible like this is that it must be bathed in the foulest of fel energy. I hate to say it, but the most efficient method of accomplishing such a feat is to subject it to the bile of a demon.

Yes, I said the bile of a demon. Ready to get to work?

In the Vault of the Wardens, such a demon exists. An imp mother by the name of Grimoira. The door to her room is sealed by an invisible lock.

I'd suggest bringing some Skaggldrynk with you. Use it when you get to her door.
