You can find the lake at 35,35. Most of the plants needed are underwater. The elementals are immune to ice.

Commento di 13910

They are all around the lake(Has no name, but it's in the Darkcloud Pinnacle area). The plants are orange/brown and scattered all throughout the lake.
Elementals are nearby, levels 27 or 28

Commento di 17060

I found the mobs hard to kill in close combat.
Fist of all, they DPS is crasy. Everytime they hit me, they damage around 90. And when they critt they damage is on 130. Sometimes the mobs uses a stun that last 3 sec. They even uses a curse or something that gives you 30% chans to miss. For casters they are not so hard but look out rogue, warrior, pala and drood, you wont take 2 at the same time.

Commento di 10013

The quest giver says northeast, but it's really just east.

Commento di jonathoncottrell

the elementals do MAGIC damage, it ignores armour, 'swhy it looks like they hit so hard
equip yourself with +frost res items and youll be fine
Mages with frost ward are immune to the damage, but the debuffs till hit them

Commento di 22443

Even as lvl 25 hunter these mobs arent hard to kill, they are immune for my poison stings... I can take like 2/3 at a time, so no big problems for hunter. I found them next to the water, and in the water.

-Jawzz-

Commento di 28946

they might look like water elementals but they do only fire dmg, even their melee is fire
so fire ward is very handy

Commento di 36862

Definetely not an easy quest.....lvl 26 hunter. The only real tough part is the lvl 29 elementals....they seem to love to suprise you.

Commento di 32172

Being a herbalist helps this quest. Find Herb will show Incendia Agave on the minimap.

Commento di 46104

where do i go to turn in this quest?

Commento di 52826

Thist quest is pain in the butt for fire and especially frost mage. The elementals that hover in and around the pool are immune to frost spells and have very high resist rate on fire spells. So most of the time the only option is to spam AE or Arcane Missiles, and without the talents in Arcane tree Arcane Missiles gets interrupted very easily.

Commento di 52077

The pools are actually north-west of Freewind post, not east at all - unless my map is different from everyone else's...!

Commento di 58213

This is a Pain Quest (Long and the Mob hit very hard,
Soloed with my 25 Warlock

Commento di Vorph

The problem is the herbs have a long respawn time. I circled the area three times for 15 minutes, yet recieved no respawns.

Commento di sneakygnome

All I gotta say is this quest sucks for frost mages. Use your mana shield, fire ward and I found arcane spells hit better then fire spells.

Commento di 11253

Solo'd as a 27 Feral Druid.
I cast regrowth and regeneration before pulling with Faire Fire, then switched to bear form and cast demoralizing roar and kept mauling till they died.
Though cat form would be faster, the low amount of armor takes away our HP really fast.

Commento di 35640

No way in hell this should be a level 27 quest. The elementals are mostly level 29, hit for 70-80 per swing, and have a 3 second stun that also does about 150 damage.

At least if you're a warrior, don't even try this quest. It's impossible.

Commento di 70461

Soloable as a lv 29 hunter, with a lv29 boar. Remember to use Mend Pet, these elementals do much damage

Leads to this quest: https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=5088

Commento di 69853

Careful with the Scalding Elementals here, they should be labeled elite.

Commento di 74677

i agree with that im a lvl 29 fire mage and i cant kill one with out them killing me. i think the best way to do for mages is to have a tank or somebody to take some of the blows for you.

Commento di Desecration

Easy quest as a lvl 29 hunter with 29 pet. Just dps while the pet tanks. Watch your breathing though, as I have an undead main, I kept running out of air :p A lot of the plants are at the sides of the water also, not just in the water. The respawn on the plants is quite good, so you can really just do one area to get them all. If youre a miner, put on your minteral tracking thing, cos theres a few ores around the edge too.

Commento di 76974

I solo'd this quest as a 26 Protevtion Paladin. Very difficult because the lvl 29's hit very hard for their lvl. Average hit is between a 70 and upper 90's with the highest crit on me a 157. Be very careful also of the elementals using the instant cast fire spell. It causes u to be stunned and unable to cast. They like to use it as a finishing move. So make sure when u hit about 30% health remaining to throw a Holy Light down. It is possible to solo as 26 Prot Pally, just Seal of Crusader then cast that on it, immediatly put Seal of Righteousness on urself and keep the Consecration on the ground. Difficult quest, nto impossible, just takes time and tons of mana lol! Also be sure to have Retribution Aura turned on. It helps significantly.

Good luck,
Pallytime

Commento di hawke

Not easy for a mage either, they are immune to ice (wich mean you can't frost nova them or even frostbolt them, and no Cone of Cold either), and they have a resistance on fire too... so it leave you with arcane.

My tactic was to use Arcane missile from the farest I could go from them, then spam arcane explosion. But then again, I died 1 or 2 times and had to regen mana after every battle... definately not an easy quest.

Commento di 81617

Solo'd as a druid. You CANNOT pull more than one if you don't have a pet or if you're under lvl 30. Period. If you do, lose agro and pull just one again, they're spread out so they're easy to pull.

Commento di 61183

Solo'd as a 29 frost mage. not easy. They're immune to frost, so forget that, and resistant to fire spells, so you can use them but it's unreliable. imposible to kite efficiently, so don't bother. You might get one or two by blinking, but I just let them pound away. the only good thing is they have a low hp so if you can hit them, they do go down sorta quick. But, so do you.

My strategy, put up fire ward and dampen magic, pull with missiles, fire blast, spam ArEx till blast is up, and repeat those two till it dies. when fire ward fails, put up mana sheild and use missles. this takes alot of mana so have pots and gems at the ready. Even with over 2k mana, I used a gem almost every fight.

rinse repeat and get the hell out of there.

Commento di zieggenfus

This was not that difficult for a 29 Frost spec.

As mentioned earlier, put up Fire Ward, Mana Sheild, and Dampen Magic. Pull at max range with fireball, then scorch, then AM till dead. At end of each, I had between 1/3 and 1/4 mana remaining. (2352 max mana)

You will have to drink after each fight.

Commento di 71624

Was fairly easy as 27 warlock, but then I guess most things are. Just make sure to pull them one at a time, rather fight one that you might not have to than risking a link and dying.

Their stun effect is evil, it seems to kick in at the worst times.

Commento di 81172

Seriously....

That was the worst quest EVER.

No Shit

Commento di 87787

Level 31 pally, did fairly well.

Commento di 46418

soloed as a 25 feral druid with a lot of difficulty. the 27s went down well enough, but the fights against 28s and 29s were mostly based on luck. did it in bear form and had to stun and switch out to heal. not easy, but definitely possible.

Commento di 104447

This quest sucks as a frost mage. As in, every talent point you have is basically useless, and the traditional frost mage methods of snare and kite are impossible as this is immune to frost. However, after several tries, I came up with a strategy that works well to solo this, even as a 0/0/x pure frost mage (for all the good those talents do you here, you might as well be 0/0/0...).

This is of course just my opinion, but this worked very well for me and I completed the quest with little difficulty after adopting these methods:

1. First, you must use Dampen Magic. It reduces all damage dealt by the elementals.

2. Second, before you pull, cast Fire Ward on yourself. This will absorb the damage, and Dampen Magic's effect will cause this to last longer. If you want to be extra safe, you can cast this 15 seconds before the pull, so the 30 second cooldown will be up at about the time your ward collapses.

3. When you fight the elemental, make sure you're facing a direction that's clear. The reason being, you can and should Blink out of its stun, but as you're stunned, you can't change direction. Make sure you're facing a good direction to Blink into. Don't burn Blink before it stuns.

4. Always pull with Fireball (or pyroblast if you have it). After this, you're using Arcane Missiles or Arcane Explosion only -- it's fire resist is high enough that you don't want to cast fire spells, at the same time, being as you can cast fireball/pyroblast before it aggros you, it just acts as a little bonus opening damage. Always open at max range to get as much DPS in before it reaches you.

5. Don't try to use Mana Shield, it really doesn't work very well; these things hit hard enough that you'll deplete your mana pool very rapidly.

Commento di 103969

As a fire mage, I found it easy to cast pyroblast, fireward, and keep casting pyroblast until the ward left (then fireball, fireblast and scorch from then on).

Commento di cryoflash

This is perfectly easy even as a frost mage.
Just cast mana shield + fire ward, throw a couple of fireballs, then scorch them like hell (it's a quick cast spell and doesn't take much mana) and if needed use fireblast or wand. :)

Commento di 19683

Jesus, ok we get it, this quest is hard for some mages to do. Role another toon if it's too hard, go QQ on another board already

Commento di 138902

Just to the north of Darkcloud Pinnacle, there is a lake with water elementals, go there and there are some around the lake, and there are some underwater, just be careful not to aggro many water elementals.

Commento di 116179

Important notice, the "Scalding Elemental"s are fire based, they are immune to cold damage, and all fire damage done is reduced by about 60% against these targets, mages are going to have a REALLY tough time with these... they have about a 20% chance when they hit you to "Scald" you which is a three second stun... other then that bit of information, yes the plants are found all around the water.

Commento di jaxsonbateman

Fortunately, for all the frost mages out there, both the casting speed increase and spell pushback prevention of Icy Veins also work with your fire and arcane spells. So despite most of your talent points in frost being useless, this one is definitely not. It won't prevent the stun, but you can blink out of that, and it means that for the rest of the time you can spam Fireball or Arcane Missiles uninterrupted.

If you're level 30+ (I realise it's a lv 27 quest, but if you've done a couple of instances before you reach 1KN there's a good chance you'll be 30) you can combine it with Cold Snap to potentially kill up to 4 with the spell pushback immunity (Icy Veins, kill 2 during duration, Cold Snap, Icy Veins, kill 2 during duration).

In any case, while they certainly aren't the easiest of mobs to kill, it's doable thanks to the tools given to mages.

Commento di 151152

The lake type thing is at 35,35 and the plants you need are mostly by the lake on the shore some are underwater but not alot it helps if you are nothing to do with frost cause the elementals that you are likely to face are frost and they use fire though so its really helpful to be not frost or anything to do with frost and to have atlest 5 in fire resistence

Commento di Rashigar

As a shaman, don't forget that if you did your quests you now have Fire Resistant Totem.

Commento di 173384

These guys hit 64-80 on my rogue normal,with a 130 crit.

Note for rogues:They are not immune to poisin. My Crippling Poisin worked against them nicely.

Commento di Aisenfaire

In case anyone is like me and leaps impulsively into the lake to gather incendia-- the way out of the lake is at either end of the lake's eggplant shape-- at 37, 39 or 33, 32. I share this as I spent some frantic minutes fighting through mobs, trying to find a spot to climb out at.

Commento di 253355

What GoilveigL2 posted was very very helpful in doing this quest as a frost mage; and I guess the same method could be applied for a fire mage too.

I did this at level 30:
1) Cast dampen magic on yourself
2) Put up your fire ward and wait a few seconds
3) Then pull with any spell and keep spamming arcane missiles

For me, the fire ward never collapsed during the fight and I always managed to kill each elemental my health unscathed. Also, as long as fire ward is up arcane missiles will not be interrupted as all the damage is absorbed.

Commento di 271474

Their moves are confirmed.
The Scalding Elementals, to me, are a little bit stronger than the Boiling Elementals They can use Scald which is a 3 second stun.

The Boiling Elementals have a 10 debuff called Steam Jet. It lowers your chance to hit by 30%.
Both mobs are slow but strong hitters and they crit a lot more than usual. But i think all in all they are pretty easy if you have burst damage. My 28 rogue never got below 50% even when i took on 2 at a time (evasion).

Now for the plants.
The plants are found mostly underwater but you can find an odd few around the edge of the water. Clear th mobs around the plant so you dont get unwanted pulls when trying to open. The elementals can aggro from pretty far away.
The plants underwater were hard for me to find at first. They are the same colour as the ground there on and usually close to a wall, not out in the open.

P.S.
For people who dont have first-aid and have to eat, ive found a kind of safe spot if you clear like 1 or 2 mobs. Co-ords are about 35,35. Between a small pillar and the cliff there is a part thats underwater but only by a little bit. You can rest or pull your mobs there for easier fighting and no pulls.
Good luck,
Kruelty

Commento di 300594

Done pretty easily as a lvl 27 rogue. They use scald pretty often to stun you for about 3 seconds which got very annoying. Not every plant has an elemental near it so that was a plus since I could just stealth around, gather the agave and stealth again. Only found one plant outside the water by the smaller pool so you'll be spending most of your time in the water. Also helpful to have a healing potion on you in case you pull two since they hit hard. & yes Crippling poison was a big help.

Commento di 229377

they're green and most of them are outisde the lake it also helps if you have herbing =D e.z. quest

Commento di mukunku

thanks for all the helpful comments =)

Commento di 317120

Very well near impossible as a frost mage level 26.

Frost spells are fully resisted, and fire spells get their damage halved. Arcane spells get interrupted within seconds. The 3 second stun leaves me open to get pretty much ganked.

Mages, all i can say is don't do this quest on your own.

Commento di 336801

Agave is the name of a botanical genus. Plants belonging to such have a history of spectacular, though infrequent blooms.

Incendia is french for "burned," which makes sense as these plants are growing in the "Boiling Pool"

Commento di 273434

Easily done as a lvl 27 shadow priest, just bubble and dps. Only thing for me was the amount of plants there actually are, not to many :/

Commento di 38995

Can't believe this quest is still so broken. Mobs are easy to kill as any class, but finding 10 of the damn herbs will take you 20 mins. This is one quest I won't be missing when Cataclysm drops.

Commento di 481351

I did this quest on my rouge it was NOT easy, i found the flowers around the lake in the water and behind rocks.
I hope you guys don't fail as much as i did.

Commento di 470626

I think that they must have nerfed this quest recently. The elementals are doing around 50 per hit on an equal leveled player and they don't stun any more.

really easy now :)

Edit - the Boiling Elementals still stun.

Counts towards Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement.

Commento di Thottbot

They are plants you have to pick...but the water elementals are there.

Lvl 31 warlock, np.

Commento di Thottbot

Mob called Scalding Elemental is one of the most ridiculous mobs Ive every seen. I tried to kill him at lv29 and I gave up (Fire Mage) I can solo lv34 elite but not this lv29 normal elemental. :( Even though I'm a mage, all my gears are concentrated for stamina, so I have about 1000 HP at lv29, ok, so I tried to kill scalding elemental and I laughed so many times. This is not even funny. Immune to ice, (Ice mages gg) nova doesn't work and it runs fast, uses a firespell that does about 150dmg+3sec stun (can't break stun w/ blink). And hits around 80 per hit. That means, For each firespell he can do about 200+dmg w/o him getting hit. Fireball? My fireball usually does like 190dmg but it takes down his HP only about 10% (high resist to fire) And you don't have enough time to cast third one. Or not even second one, cuz he casts that stun spell on you. No nova, no blink, immune to ice. Scalding Elemental is not soloable by mages... I have no idea why blizzard designed mob like this. I already have a lv60 character and Ive never seen any normal mobs unsoloable by any kind of classes. (Yes, I tried to run away from this scalding elemental and it followed me all the way to the elevators of Freewind Post. GG)

Commento di Thottbot

I didn't see it mentioned, but there are a BUNCH of plants UNDER the water. Spent 30 minutes just looking on the shores.

Commento di Thottbot

Coords are roughly 36,36. The area is a big lake on your map, it is pretty hard to miss it.

I soloed this very easily with my level 29 priest, never got below half health once. These mobs do have a spell that cuts your accuracy in half, so I can see how that could cripple some melee classes.

The objectives for this quest are stationed all around the area, some underwater and some on the coast. I'm fairly sure you could complete this quest without stepping foot in the water or fighting any elementals, but it would take much longer.

Its worth noting that the elementals in this area drop Bubbling Water in great quantity, which is an excellent mana healing drink for casters.

If you have herbalism and you turn on Find Herbs, the objectives for this quest will appear on your minimap.

Commento di Thottbot

I did this quest as a level 31 Hunter. It's not that hard. The Incendia Agave can be found around the lake, which is your first and best bet for collecting it. You'll encounter fewer elementals that way and you won't have to worry about drowning if you can't last underwater for a long time.

The elementals there give awesome XP as well.

Commento di Thottbot

I also soloed this quest. I am a level 30 priest. I also found it much easier to fight underwater and I didn't go after any elementals I didn't have to. I just pulled one at a time. Took me awhile to complete this quest but I didn't die at all. I found it very easy.

Commento di Thottbot

Soloed as a lvl 27 priest, 3 deaths. Requires a lot of patience.

Commento di Thottbot

this quest is really hard for warriors. You seem as though your owning them then they put steam jet on you.(chance to hit reduced by 51%). That really kills a warrior. You get it down to just about killing them and then...miss miss miss miss miss miss miss miss miss. Its useless. Once that spell is on you your gone, not to mention scald to stun you and how they respawn at lvl 29 not 27.

Commento di Thottbot

- Incendia Agave: 0/10 / 36,36 / flowers.

Commento di Thottbot

These guys are viscious, a level 31 mage shouldn't have any trouble killing 18's and 17's, they might as well be elites. None of my fire spells do over 150 dmg unless crit. They are also completely immune to frost. Wtf! I handled the quest fine, but I think these guys are very overpowered.
Tj-

Commento di Thottbot

Earlier coordinates (36, 36) are correct.

Commento di Thottbot

This, as already stated, is a very hard quest for fire/frost mages. I soloed it as lvl 27 fire mage, died twice.

Resist: ALL frost spells, and 50% dmg from fire

Technique:
stay 30yards from mob. hit with arc missile x2 by this stage it will be upon you, hit Fire Ward, keep pumping arc missiles into it, using your Fire Blast each cool down.

this will allow you to kill lvl 27 and 28 with about 1cm health and mana left.

try to dodge as many mobs as possible, collecting the plant around the edges and just in the water. multiple pulls = death, so dont swim far into the pool, you'll die. Herbalists get handy advantage, can see them on minimap

Commento di Thottbot

I swear there are more plants in the actual water than above it, only problem is that there are MORE elementals under the water - and they all jump on you. I'm a lvl 26 Shaman and even my Stone Claw totem couldn't help. It's totally do-able solo, just takes awhile.

Commento di Thottbot

Lvl 28 tauren shaman well equip i admit the elementals were pretty ahrd for there lvl but if you take your time its really pretty easy just do gentle pulls 1 at a time and if ur a tauren use rockbiter 4 and earthshock and its easy, DONT FORGET FIRE RES TOTEM VERY HELPFUL !

cords are 35,35 in that lake the whole area has weed looking things in the bottem ight click to get em 35,35 is jsut a genreal area not a exact spot of the weed :)

Commento di Thottbot

I usually don't post to @#$%^ but come on blizzard this quest is way harder than any other that shows up yellow in the quest log. I have soloed quests that were still red text and not had this much trouble. The plant hardly ever pops up outside the lake and I cant seem to swim without pulling at least two elementals. There I feel better now :)

Commento di Thottbot

QQ more plz. The coords have been repeated 100x times, do you really need to $%^&* about people talking about what level they were and stuff? You can get the coords way up at the top, this stuff doesn't matter. So stop #$%^&ing.

I was a lvl 29 druid, did it alright. Only problem was I had been fighting a while before this and my dura was really low by the end. Just put any dots you have on them, keep your hp up (I hope you have a heal), and put out as much dps as you can. Also don't fight 2 at once. >_< I took out even the lvl29 hard ones (the ones with the stun are tougher).

Only other thing was there was a group of like 3 people doing it at the same time (lvl27, 28, 28), so I had to try ot beat them to the loot, and sometimes they'd take one I was going for while I was fighting the enemy near it. I did the same thing to them a few times, so it evened out.

Commento di Thottbot

I agree, these guys are more powerful then they should be.. but I am a lvl 28 shaman and i had no problem with this quest at all. i never had to use a fire resistance totem.. my most common totem drop against sumthing i was having problem with was a magma, stoneskin, and a healing and I got all 10 of the plants as well as not dying once.

Commento di Thottbot

easy as pie for a lvl 28 affliction warlock, barely any down time, fighting everyone of the elements in my way

Commento di Thottbot

I did this by myself at lvl28 warlock. It may be harder for those who do not have a pet with tanking capabilities.
There's a lake east of The Great Lift, east of Freewind Post. Right click on the plants in and some that are around the lake. There are some lvl 28-29(maybe a 30) Boilingwater Elementals in and around the water. A lot of the plants are under the water so you'll have to fight, go under&get; plant, then go up for air.
Coordinates are 35,35

Commento di Thottbot

Since the mobs are immune to all frost spells, you cant lock them using frost nova, slow them down with cone of cold or anything like that. You start of the fight using arcane missiles, do not use Fireball since they have heavy resistance against fire. Fire Blast sometimes comes in hand if you'r low on mana, however, after using Arcane Missiles just spam Arcane Explosions all over the place. Use "Fire Ward", since even their normal hits count as fire dmg. Then it'll be quiet easy, gl!

Commento di Thottbot

I know I know... I can be quite slow in geting things right :( but for those how are as slow as myself or who are just a bit faster.... most of the silly plants are to be found UNDER WATER!

*winks*

Commento di Thottbot

If your an alchemist make yourself a water breathing potion and turn on your find herbs. Makes the quest much easier. If not buy yourself a potion before you go, trust me I am saving you a headache.

Commento di Thottbot

I'm doing this right now as a level 26 druid, and I've already died twice.
It helps to use prowl while swimming in cat form, and then grab the herb form. When you run out of air, go sea lion form to stay underwater.

Commento di Thottbot

Gave up after a few visits to the graveyard as a lvl 27 warrior. I've since leveled up and am going to give it another go tonight.

Commento di Thottbot

If your a herbalist you can track the plants. Makes it alot easier.

Commento di Thottbot

Mages you can use Fireward against the elementals!

Commento di Thottbot

This is a hell of a quest for a mage, especially a frost mage. The elementals are immune to frost, so there'll be no kiting, and they're resistant to fire in that you won't hit hard often. And it takes ages for the grass to respawn. Just a head's up ;).

Commento di Thottbot

25 undead warrior. i found a weak point in the defense of the plants. it took me a while to complete the quest because i had to wait for the same plant to keep respawning. the NW of the the lake is guarded by a 27 he's also right by a one of the plants. also if you're feeling up to a 28 elemental and a 26 lion there is one to the south just around the butte to the right from the first plant.

Commento di Thottbot

no problems ther lvl 28 druid

but it's better to do when you have a partner

Commento di Thottbot

Next to any quest is "soloable" for a class that can sit back and just blow their cooldowns while their pet tanks it lol.

Anyway, i really wouldn't suggest even attempting this if you're a frost mage, and lower than level 30.

If you do want to give it a go, they are completely immune to frost attacks, and seem to have very high resistance to fire attacks, so a mages only option is arcane magic. Throw up a mana shield and spam arcane missiles / arcane explosion and fire explosion. Expect to die atleast a couple of times though.

If you happen to have a level 70 on the server, clear the area with your 70 like i ended up doing and just swim around picking up as many as you can as quickly as you can.

Commento di Thottbot

well this quest is relly easy for a balance speced druid just do roots and spam starfire ... monfire ..did it in 10min easy as a pie:P

Commento di Thottbot

I'm a lvl 24 warrior and killed an lvl 29 Scalding Element, They are easy.

Commento di Thottbot

Np for a lv 24 pally either :p

Commento di Thottbot

These guys gave me a little trouble because they are imune to frost. it might be a good idea if you are frost to bring some Pots with you.

Commento di Thottbot

dont let ppl fool u, i have find herbs and their r just as many on the shore as in the water. still had to go into water to speed things up tough. luckily thay have a quick respawn so u would only have to stay by the same area. look around shore cuz theirs about the same amount of nimber of the plat and less elementals

Commento di Thottbot

OMG this is quest is so messed up. The scalding elemantals have like a 5 sec cd stun move and hits for atleast 77 fire damage and has a 150 crit. HOW IS THIS FAIR FOR A LVL 25 DRUID. They around lvl 28-29 and are unfair. SO RUN AWAY.

Commento di Thottbot

Ohhh and by the way there is a hidden path ( not rly hidden) that u can walk on and is very helpful with eating and drinking (plz dont drive after too many beers) :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Those elementals didnt take Frost or Earth shock. The only thing that works was Fireshock

Commento di Allakhazam

There are 2 safety places - one on 35.37 - other on 36.33 where have Incendia Agave, not guarded by elementals. I`ve make it with 25 lvl rogue, but it was very hard. I`ve die 6 times, till I find thouse places. Good luck!

Commento di Allakhazam

The pool is SE, not NE like the quest says. It is the great big lake on the map close to the home post.

Commento di Allakhazam

As a lvl 31 fire-spec mage this quest was pretty difficult for me. Magic missiles and mana shield need to be on your hotbar if you're a fire-spec because the elementals are heavy fire-resistant.

Commento di Allakhazam

Finished this at lvl 26 orc warrior, pretty easy.

36,38

Commento di Allakhazam

Just a note... if you have Herbalism, just use 'Find Herbs' in this area and you can see all the available Incendia Agave plants show up on the minimap.

The items(which are herbs) are found around the water elementals(the water elementals are around the only body of water in Thousand Needles). They do NOT drop the actual item, though. You have to open the plants under and around the water.

Notes: 1) Herbalists can see the quest items on tracking.
2) Respawns for the plants aren't too long.
3) Level 27-29 mobs

Pain in the ass to do, but I did it. Lv 29 hunter and 29 pet. Stay around the edges of the lake and you'll usually only get one at a time.

Got 2200 exp for turning it in.

Was doing this as a 29 rogue solo, was going ok, had one close call, was like, "whew close one" then suddenly I was shot by one of those snakes that shoot lightning in the area. Ok, so I go back to finish up and guess what, snake is shooting at me again, but I cant see him anywhere, I proceed to try and leave the area as I figure the mob must be under the ground. Even though I was out of combat this thing was still shooting me repeatedly. Went all the way to the great lift and left the area as I'm getting pretty sick of these bugs.

Good luck

Thought it was pretty easy at Level 30, Blood elf paladin, just swim around the water killing off the elementals and just pick the agave up

Commento di Allakhazam

Level 28 Warlock Finished it no problem!

The best location to collect these agave is at: 36,38. A couple of the plants are on land and the rest are in the water. Solo'd this one at 29 with a 28 pet. Easy enough to do but you need the watch the aggro range on the elementals. It's a bit hard to see underwater already with there is the added effect of steam and haze in this water.

My results:
You gain 2200 experience.
Received 22 Silver.

Commento di Allakhazam

From Freewind Post, the location is northwest. There is a lake in Darkcloud Pinnacle. You can find the agave here. There is only one body of water on map, so shouldn't be too hard to find.

Commento di Allakhazam

What I mean by that, I found 2 different ways to get to the "lake" so that said there was normally a different way to approach at around 2-3. Being a herbalist they were easy to find, with little or no fighting at all.

My problem was, that my area Cox was having problems with the internet so a couple times I found myself swimming underwater to get to one, then my internet would drop for a minute or so, and then log back on. So I would come back and find myself dead, so I gave up on that part. But I just would get the respawns when they came back (Which was actually quite quickly). Didn't take much time at all.

Commento di Allakhazam

Maybe I was being too macho, but it sucked doing this, even as a 29/30 Paladin. The elementals scald/stun you so you can't do anything and I would forget to heal myself until too late. I died about 3 times (I don't die very often--I play it safe usually) so then it made me weaker. I'm done whining.

Anyway, there is a little inlet around 33,35 that has a couple plants on land. The elementals didn't drop anything other than water, if even that. Got great XP. Also, if you have herbalism, you can find the plants really easily.

If you fight in the water, make sure you are completely under, otherwise you can't see.

Again, I couldn't find anything that said "Boiling Pool" but it was the only water showing on my map.

Commento di Allakhazam

My recommendation is to let a rogure do it (I have a level 29) - using stealth, you can work around the periphery and get all the eggs you need by killing only local windriders (I only had to kill 4).

Commento di Allakhazam

I just camped around the spawn at the entrance to the pools, 2 plants spawn there.
Took a while, and I kept having to kill elementals, but a level 27 warrior could not have gone into the pools and come back alive.

Commento di Allakhazam

this quest is rediculous if you are a mage not specced for uninterruptable arcane missiles. the elementals are immune to cold and resist anything fire by about half damage. i gave up and brought my level 61 priest and killed everything in sight, then relogged as my mage to loot the weeds

Commento di Allakhazam

Piece of cake for a lvl 27 holy priest. The only problem was to find enough of them agaves, but there were plenty of them underwater.

Commento di Allakhazam

Tried as 25 Priest. Lvl 29 Elementals just too much for me. Will try again @ lvl 27 or so...

Commento di Allakhazam

Level 26 Hunter... pain in the ass to do as a hunter because they are so close together in the lake. Also, they aggro as soon as you hit them with an arrow, and once they came up to me they do 100-170 damage per hit, when I only do about 60 per hit... so I died a few times. Glad this quest is over.

Commento di Allakhazam

I wanted to thank my Fire Spec Mage friend above for the advice with these elementals. I'm sure I would have died a thousand times and given up if I hadn't had this guidance.

On an similar note, the respawn for these items is very fast; I finally had enough of chasing them down (even as an herbalist) and stood at 33,34 and waited for respawn. The plant came back within five minutes (if that). I had seven at the time so I counted it worth my time to grind the elementals in the immediate vicinity while I waited. :) Hope this helps!

Soloed this, 26 Hunter (my alt). Not hard at all.

Commento di Allakhazam

If you aggro one elemental, you'll usually aggro at least one or two more trying to get away. That combined with their ability to stun you rendering you unmovable makes them incredibly hard to defeat. I died at least.. 6+ times during this mission. Then again, Im only a 26 war so maybe I don't speak for the rest of you.

I've never had any of the elementals run away.

As a shaman, I dropped a fire totem, stoneskin totem and blasted away w/ wind fury and earth shock. survived every fight with at least 50% health.

Horrible Quest. I hated it. Did with my 28 Shaman. Herbs don't respawn much. Guys argo is ridiculous. Bull $%^& Quest.

Commento di Allakhazam

Easily soloed with a lvl 27 warlock and underwater breathing =)

Commento di Allakhazam

I must admit having read the posts I was expecting this to be a little problematic.

All I can say is that as a Lvl 28 'lock this was a bit of a stroll. Use a voidwalker to tank and stick to good old DoTs (corruption, Curse of Agony) with the odd Shadowbolt thrown in and this was a breeze. Used a wand to conserve mana. By the time I had more threat than the 'walker the ele' was more or less dead anyway.

I got a couple of adds at one point but Banish held them in check till I'd dealt with the one in progress. It also got hairy just the once but Sacrifice and a timely retreat allowed me to recover my strength.

For breathing underwater (much easier to pull the elementals) I used Unending Breath. Most of the plants are down there too.

Not sure what the fuss was all about :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Mages, you might have a little trouble doing this quest, because the water elementals are immune to many spells. (especially fire mages)

Like others have said before, just use arcane missiles (even if you aren't arcane spec) and mana shield, and you will be fine.

Also, approach the pools from the south side, and the west side, and alternate. Don't go too far in, where you will be hopelessly engulfed by agro. By the time you finish with one side, just go back to the other, and the Agaves will probably respawn.

Commento di Allakhazam

As you've no doubt realized, Mages, these elementals are incredibly resistant to most of your magic. They're immune to Frost, and Fire has almost no effect. The solution? Arcane Missiles.

"But Darthen!" You say, "It's a channeled spell! They'll just interrupt it!"

Well, there's a good answer to this: it's called Mana Shield. Granted, it's not very mana-efficient (You'll almost unfailingly have to drink after every battle) but it'll keep you alive.

This is just one of the quests that isn't very friendly towards Mages. The Elementals were built against them.

So let's sum up how to do an Elemental Battle, as a Mage.

Step 1: Opener. For Fire Mages, this is most likely a Pyroblast. Regardless of how resistant they are to Fire, Pyroblast is a powerful spell. But I won't tell you how to open up a battle, you've been doing it since level 1.

Step 2: Mana Shield. Make sure you keep an eye on the buff in the upper right corner - if it goes out, you'll almost certainly be stunned for a good 3 seconds, which is practically death for a Mage.

Step 3: Arcane Missiles. As long as you have the Shield up, the Elementals can't interrupt spellcasting. Unfortunately, this is the where the most variables come into play. Will the Elemental resist? Will your shield crack?

Step 4: Re-shield. WATCH THE BUFF. If you see it go out, break the Missiles and throw up another one. The Elemental can and will stun you. The shield will stop that.

Step 5: Closer. Again, I won't tell you how to end the battle. Fire Blast is a good choice, but it'll only hit for 5-7%. You could even use Missiles as a closer.

Follow these steps and you can't fail.

You can find the lake at 35,35. Most of the plants needed are underwater. The elementals are immune to ice.

Commento di Allakhazam

those plants and the mobs respawn very fast, so when i picked up the first half i could go back and do it again :)

Commento di Allakhazam

These elementals are giving me a pain in the arse but around 36,31 there's no elementals and there's a incendia underwater. So im just staying there till it spawns again.

Commento di Allakhazam

As a 29 druid I didn't have trouble. Only time I was worried was when I stupidly attacked when i was at half health. Shifted out, used regrowth and went back to cat form. Really not too difficult, just pulled one at a time. Maybe the rogueish cat form spells I was using were perfect for this quest, but it took about 15 minutes because of slow spawns.

Commento di Allakhazam

Doable as a 24 druid at 33,33.

With decent to good gear you can take one of the elementals at a time with perfect tactics and execution, there's two spawn spots for the agave that you can stealth to with just one elemental kill.

Commento di Allakhazam

Completed as 28 Belf Pally.

Coords are accurate. Be aware; the elementals hit decentlly hard.

Commento di Allakhazam

Being a 28 Magethat uses Elemental magic, I had alot of trouble with these Elementals. They were Immune to Frost Bolt and Frost Nova, Fireball and Fire Blast only did 1/2 to 1/3 of it's normal damage. Arcane Missle was the only answer, but it uses up alot of mana. Luckily enough I'm spec'd so that Arcane Missle doesn't get interrupted by damage, but still it takes so long to kill them with Arcane Missle and they hit pretty hard, plus mages have low health to begin with. I could solo the 27's easily, 28's with some difficulty, but I couldn't kill the 29's. If you read my other posts I can kill anything my own levelor a few levels higher than me, I killed Rok'Alim, the lvl 30 elite at only 29, but I couldn't kill the lvl 29 elementals here. I died 5 or 6 times trying different things and I finally found the answer. Dampen Magic. Mana Shield doesn't do anything, don't cast it. The Elementals don't use physical attacks, it took me awhile to figure it out, even though they are hitting you, it's magic based damage. Dampen Magic, helped immensely, taking 20 damage off every single hit. Once Dampen Magic was used, I was able to kill the level 29's pretty easily, having 30-50% of my health and 20-40% of my mana still intact. This was by far the hardest quest I've done so far.

Commento di Allakhazam

behind the litle rock (cca 36,37) is a nice hideout to sit and drink. Fire is useless. I think that I am pretty strong in fire, but it is useless on these bastards ;). I used only arcane missiles (rank 3); and a lot of water, but the mobs drops Bubbling Water anyway ;)

Commento di Allakhazam

started this one as a lev 28 hunter, leveled while doin it, also lev 28 pet,
had no probs at all soloing it

Commento di Allakhazam

Just finished solo as a 25 priest. I camped a 35.36, it had 3 plants near by, that you only need to kill 1-2 elementals near by to reach them all. Took me atleast 1 hour to get 10 plants and took me many deaths. After each death i was left with 10-20% Health and 5-20% Mana.

Commento di Allakhazam

Solo'ed this as a 28 troll shaman, pretty easy, since the elementals are spread out far from each other, just be careful, they hit kindof hard, and the Scalding Elementals stun.

did this at lv 25 , had no prob, wiht the mobs , cords are correct

Commento di Allakhazam

Very easy, for casters (except mage because they make water) it's nice to kill these water elementals to get extra liquid to refill MP, nevermind that, the location is 33,34 (Big lake on map). Not a piece of cake, but relative easy :)

cast fire ward and they'll be easy one on one kills for mages.

Commento di Allakhazam

I noted 2 things about this quest.
The first is that there is no place called Boiling Pools so you can't look for it on your map.
Second is that it is not north east of where you get the quest, it it slightly south of due east. for those of us who do not always have access to the grid system the Boiling Pools are under Darkcloud Pinnacle.
It drove me nuts going al the way to Feralas looking north east.
I did it solo as a 29th level hunter with out my pet. I was intent on taming Arikara then using her to complete the quest.

Commento di Allakhazam

To the complaining mage: Ever heard of fire ward? Use it. Arcane missile, dampen magic and fire ward makes this a cake walk...

Ok, i Completed this quest on my 26 affliction loc...
It was very easy no problems.
Just swam around and pulled them 1 at a time while casting dots and sending in viod walker with a few shadow bolts..
Quest gave me good xp and led me to another quest that gave good xp as well.

i think it the total xp was 3500.

They spawn underwter faster than they do on land. So take a swim and finish it real fast.

Commento di RenataKane

Around 36, 38, there are 4-5 spawns of Incendia Agave in the area. Keep just a few of the elementals clear and the repop on these is pretty quick. Got all 10 fairly quickly. Some area underwater but you don't have to go any further than this southern part of the pond.

Try this as a frost mage... Between their stuns and immunity to frost spells and polymorph.... Avoid them, they will kill you in a New York minute.

Commento di Twistatron1990

For this quest, I decided to try camping one spawn point to get an idea of spawn times. I sat there for ages with no spawn, until someone else showed up and started to do the quest, after which the plant spawned in front of me. It seems that whenever a plant is looted, another one respawns elsewhere in the area.
