Commento di Nulgar

Best route in my opinion: (use runes as you come across them, of course)
From the entrance, go straight forward until the cavern wall, follow it to the thermal vent, jump across, to the next thermal vent, keep left and follow the wall, then turn right, stamp the rune in the middle and turn left, to the wall again and follow it left to the last rune.
You should be able to just ignore the spawning elementals, they are destroyed when they are close when you douse a rune, and all remaining ones as well when you complete the last rune.
With this route, I rarely stay in combat after leaving the cave again, probably because you can get out so quickly from that point.

If you have trouble surviving (which is likely due to other players doing the quest at the same time, spawning lots of elementals) simply stand in a rune, this will grant the buff Flame Protection Rune*, reducing fire damage taken by 90%. As the elementals only use Fiery Claws, which is fire damage, you only get around 50 damage per melee hit. Wait for a bunch of elementals to gather, then destroy the rune and continue your course.

* Yes, the quest text indeed mentions this:

You can use these runes to protect you from the fiery creatures

Commento di Hestiah

Something to note, the thermal vent requires you to jump before it will actually activate. Face the direction you want to go and jump for it to propel you over the lava. It looks like air shooting up from the ground.

Commento di ureonfire

My 2 cents for easiest completion... enter cave, turn left and follow the path, turn left at wall path going up ... wait until 2-3 hostiles start attacking, then destroy rune... return back down path, going straight in a counter clockwise direction around wall.... keep going forward destroying runes. on thermal vent , again keep moving around wall.. after 2nd jump, final perimeter rune, then should be just center rune to destroy.

Most first timers will miss the rune to the left of the entrance.. thus this half a$$ed attempt to help :)

Commento di rogermw

Allow me to state the obvious here, because somebody has to:

DON'T STOP. KEEP MOVING.

Unstable Flameragers will keep spawning as long as you're in the cave. Unless you overgear this quest, you will not be able to kill them fast enough by yourself. Keep moving from Rune to Rune -- detonating a rune will kill the Unstable Flameragers that are within range of you.

Commento di 202879

The most important point to remember about this quest is... don't stop running unless on a rune that you are going to destroy.

My tactics -->
I went right after entering the cave and ran in a figure eight (8) loop, leaving the last rune up the ramp. Then I just hopped over the small wall and out of the cave. The ramp rune is on your left after entering the cave but you won't be able to immediately see it.

Points to remember, don't stop to fight the elementals, only stop on runes to destroy rune/elementals around, use the plume to jump over the lava (should only be needed once) & lastly if you die in there like I did then use the time before you accept res to have a look/plan your way around.

Commento di Greystoene

If you stand on the runes the elementals will do minimal damage. No need to run through this. Stand on the rune, then wait until they stack up on you and then kill the rune. Immediately run to next rune. Easy quest if you follow that tactic.

Commento di Nerruse

A lot of people on my server were asking how to do this and I figured I was bored enough to make a video:

Commento di kannyou

Note also that you don't need to do a complete run without dying: I found out today that "first batch of runes destroyed, dying, rez, rest destroyed" still counts as a quest completion.

Commento di 350513

Am I the only one baffled by the logic employed here?

No, I'm not talking about the bogus fire elemental spawns and the hard-to-see air vents.

I'm talking about why in the world Druids of the Flame are setting up summoning circles.

They're in the Firelands. The home plane of Fire Elementals. All they should have to do is spawn wherever they well please. Summoning (at least for elementals and a number of demons according to what I remember of lore) is something where you take your mana or whatever you call your magic juice, call a demon/elemental, and form a temporary body for them in Azeroth/Outlands/Kenya. If they "die", no biggie, it wasn't their real body anyway, not their home.

If they're trying to do "summon" elementals like this in their home plane... are they effectively cloning them? Having them with a real body and a fake body, and in two places at once?

Anyway, that's summoning. And they're trying to do it in the Firelands.

Portals are different. But, y'know, we're not thinking with portals just yet.

</nerd>

Commento di Panoplia

Anyone else having a problem with this quest whereby you can't click the centre rune? That is, I click on it and nothing happens.

I spent 30 minutes trying to do this quest last night. Three times I got round the whole cave having clicked on every other rune, but when I got to the centre one and clicked, nothing happened.

The GM who answered my ticket says "interface problem, blah blah". It might be an interface problem, sure, maybe one of my addons is doing something funky (though I don't see why I don't have any problems with the other runes). Or it might be a bug.

Either way, anyone else having this problem and if so have you tracked it down to what's causing it?

Commento di alvasalrey

FOR GROUPS! i just did this with my friend as part of a group and the runes DO NOT COUNT for both of u either leave group or run twice died several times cause we did not get the 8 runes when we did only counted for the person that did all of them at a time

Commento di Sumadin

Okay maybe this is a later addition but nobody seems to have mentioned it. Standing in the blue Runes will protect you from damage(Most of it anyway). Run into it and stay there as the nice big group gather then blow the rune. I think that was how blizzard intended it to be done.

Commento di Garmheim

When I first got this quest on the PTR I could not complete it at all until I found Nathanyel's comment. Thank you, Nathanyel; you're a toon/life saver. I would modify his strategy slightly however. As a mage I'm a bit less tolerant of elementals beating on me that some other classes. The way I do it is as follows:

Enter the Igneous Depths cavern as far as you can until elementals begin to spawn. As they start to spawn go Invisible and bear left without doing the rune immediately below the entrance. Stay left and run up the ramp to the single rune on the shelf to the left of the entrance bypassing the second rune too. Wait for any elementals to catch up then destroy the rune and elementals. Blink down the ramp to that second rune that you just bypassed. Wait for elementals to spawn/catch up to you then destroy the second rune and continue along the left wall of the cavern to the third rune. Again and always wait for elementals, destroy the rune, continue down the left wall and jump into the vent to the 4th rune. Wait. Destroy. Run, still bearing left, and jump into the vent to the 5th rune. Wait. Destroy. Now run up the ramp to the centre, 6th rune in the cavern. Repeat the destruction process. Now bear left again down to the 7th rune on the cavern wall that was to your right when you entered. Wait. Destroy. Then bear right to the 8th rune which was the one just down from the cavern entrance. Let the last elementals catch up or spawn, destroy the rune and sprint out of the cavern. I usually don't have any elementals left to follow me at that point and can turn in without any attacks or remaining in combat.

Obviously other classes with greater damage resistance or different abilities will use those to deal with the damage from elementals as they progress amongst the runes but I would suggest this route and the most efficient.

Commento di Veyska

You can in fact get out of the lava. There's at least one ramp out of it to the west, near a lavafall. Might be more, didn't stick around to check. Lava stopped dealing "real" damage to me (combat log still registered hits but I stabilized around 85% HP) so it seems fairly safe to swim around to land. Elementals don't chase you in the lava, though lava bombs can still sometimes hit you.

Commento di FeyGyrl

and I thought the jousting on no control birds in a fire filled cave was a rotten quest....this beats it, hands down - officially my least fave quest in the game....and I still haven't done it, successfully, but I'm down to 25% durability at the moment....fun. tried the diff plots on here, and thanks to all who have tried to give tips...Blizz just sucked up on this one, I'm afraid.

Okay, I made it, by running to the right, up over the center arch when it came up, down to the rune towards the back; took the air spout cross to the one right across the flaming hot magma, then back up across the bridge, heading up to the left, at this point, and finishing with the one in the corner, above the entry. I hopped the wall & ran out to turn in the quest. Then, ironically, the quest druid sais, "we have them on the run, now." Ha! 41g repair bill - thanks, Blizz, put it on my tab. ;)

Commento di 264294

390g in repairs to get a daily done. Well designed.

The best part, even if you complete it, you have to walk back to Malfurion's Breach and take the portal back to Hyjal to get out of combat.

Commento di Svix

This bugged out for me today. I was unable to destroy one of the runes as it was labeled unknown and instead of the correct hand-like cursor, it was a gear cursor that did nothing when I clicked on the rune.

After dying on my second attempt, I resurrected and tried for a third time. This time it was working like normal. I was able to complete the quest. So either third time is the charm, one rune was lagging, or it was some kind of strange bug.

I made a ticket about it. We'll see what they say, if anything.

Commento di 771700

Did this on my first try, didnt watch a video, didnt even know about it, didnt need help.

Come on ppl...its not rocket science.

Commento di wowheadizmydaddy

There is a video link from Nerruse a few posts back. Look at it if anyone wants a good route. There are three keys to this, and it makes it a joke:

1) Know the route. Essentially go in, hang an acute left up and get the 'hidden' rune. Then just proceed clockwise. Hit center whenever you like... It's not a big deal because:

2) Standing on runes, the adds only hit you for around 50hp each swipe. >.>

Think of the runes as STATIONS or 'BASE' (like when you're playing 'tag' as a kid). Just move from base to base. You could go to the bathroom and come back and prolly be fine. Ok, maybe not, but there is no need to panic and keep running hard with adds on your tail - that is exactly what gets people killed. That's the wipe mechanic.

Commento di Jollygood

I read all the posts about how to do it and the most spot on idea is that, since you are going to die anyway, spend some time as a ghost running the course.

I never did figure out the thermals, but being a non-l33t 'lock with odd ideas, I used an armor scroll and demon form, my annoying felguard to distract the fire thingies, and hopped up and down in the lava (to mitigate meltage) because I saved that remote rune for last and then hearthed out.

I was impressed at the other players who managed to run the course and find the thermals.

Since I finished this one once, I don't plan to do it again, LOL.

Commento di 44284

After more experimentation, I have better luck if I save the rune on the upper ledge to the left of the entrance (as you leave it) for last. I let the mobs pile up, detonate the room and jump for the entrance. Last three times I did this, I stayed out of combat.

Commento di Arexx

I usually stand on a rune until the ones chasing me are all around me, then destroy it along with them.

Commento di littlegreenwoman

If you picked up the quest Into the Depths on the same day, you will be in a different phase and cannot see the runes. Just kill Leyara and then your daily should be working fine.

Commento di 864665

Fun tidbit - If you're running through the cave and someone from the opposite faction kills you, the quest can bug and you'll have to drop and re-accept as it won't register quest completion even if you do another full circuit of the runes.

Commento di 691812

The thermals look like thin black tendrils of air spraying upwards. If your graphics are turned down and you can't see them, they are right at the 2 edges where you have no bridge or path across the lava. Just jump UP (NOT forward, or you will go into the lava), facing the direction you want to go and the thermal will catch you and throw you up into the air and across the lava.

You can easily learn your way around the cave by going in when you do not have the quest in your log. The runes aren't visible, but you can run around the cave to your heart's content till you lean it, cause there are no mobs, and the thermal vents work!

Note: if you have "into the depths" in your log (after you complete the moonwell quest), the runes will not show up. You will need to complete into the depths before you can do enduring the heat.

Easiest way: run down the ramp and click on the first rune to "stamp it out". Turn left. At the next rune (do not stamp it), turn left and run up into the niche. Wait a few seconds for the mobs you aggro'd to catch up with you and click the rune to kill them all. Run back down out of the niche and stamp out the rune you left in place earlier. Continue forward following the path along the wall. A rune will be on your right hand. Veer over to stamp it out and continue on the path along the wall. When you come to the edge with no way across the lava, jump up into the air and let the thermal take you across. Stamp out the run and run forward to the edge. Face the rune across the lava and jump up. The thermal will take you across. Stamp the rune, and run up the ramp to your right to stamp the rune in the middle. Turn left and run down the bridge. stamp out the last rune, turn right and the ramp out will be on your left.

You take almost no damage if you run this path. If you are taking damage from mobs just wait on a rune for them to catch up, and then stamp it to flatten them all.

If you get blown into the lava don't despair. The lava causes little damage so it is more of a hassle than anything, because there are only a couple good places to get out again. One place is next to the first thermal vent. The other is on the far right (standing at the bottom of entrance ramp looking into the cave), and you may have to swim under a bridge or two to get there.

Edit: You can actually go up and over the ledge and into the niche rather than back tracking, but I would suggest learning where to go over the wall when you don't have the quest, so you don't take damage while you figure it out. Otherwise just run the route as posted above if you don't care to practice.

Commento di 302949

I have not seen a good clear overall description of the layout ... it is basically a spoked wagon wheel with six of the eight runes along the outside "rim", one rune at the hub and one rune on a dead-end path on the outside of the rim. After running down the cave entrance ramp to the first rune, turn left to run the next five runes on the rim in a clockwise direction because you must make jumps directly into small stone ramps over the lava to the fourth rune and to the fifth rune on the rim. After the sixth rune on the rim, turn right into the spoke to the rune in the center hub. Veer to the left spoke to the rim and run up the dead end path to get the last rune. The fighting stops any you can then make your way back to the cave entrance.

Commento di 758615

As a clothie I have died my fair share of times trying to hit all the runes. I used Flask of Steelskin to increase my health and found that even with the increased health I barely finished the quest. After contemplating how much the flask improved my performance I decided to do the daily quests in the molten front up to Enduring the Heat and the quests in the regrowth up to the daily quest(s) at Sethria's Roost.
After finishing the quest(s) from Sethria's Roost I am left with over 50 minutes of Mark of the wild Buff left for Enduring the Heat. it is a nice buff that increases health with added bonuses in agility and being free. Count it up to luck or give the buff credit, but I found it quite a bit easier to run through the maze than I did without the buff.
Using this Buff I was able to finish Enduring the Heat without dying.

Commento di Verdice

People are so silly. The easiest way to do this is go right when you enter and draw a little figure eight over the map. There's no doubling-back at all needed, and when you're finished you're at the entrance.

1) Hit the rune at the entrance, go right to hit the next.

2) Go to the left and hit the center rune.

3) Go straight and hit your third rune toward the wall.

4) Jump the flame vent and hit the rune in the back of the cave.

5) Jump the flame vent and hit the fifth rune. Hard right and pass over the center platform again (if you hadn't stamped the rune the first time, you can do it now).

6) Hit the rune straight across from you.

7) Go up the ramp against the wall and hit the final rune. You're done, with no "backing up over your steps" and closer to the entrance than you would be with any other route.

Commento di 865088

anyone else notice its the same layout as Ragefire chasm?

Commento di 886969

Greetings everyone,

I'm fairly new to WoW, ( 3 months) But finally got my first lvl 85 lock ! I've attempted this quest over and over, and I've clicked on 3 of the runes so far and it's only given me credit for 1 of them. I rebooted wow, thinking it may be a UI disconnect since another guildmate was having the same issue in HP with the eyes to deliver to the cauldron. 5 eyes channeled and not a single one absorbed into her. Even after rebooting, it still did the same exact thing to her. (Sorry to get off track)

Every time I try to jump the lava, the wind carries me to the left, right into the lava with no apparent way to climb out. I've died repeatedly, and to be honest as a clothy, It's not worth it to me to pay 50 to 60 gold in repairs, for a 16 gold quest. I knew this quest was not going to be an easy one after reading it, so decided to research it here first. I've followed the instructions to the letter and it's just not working. I even ignored the fire elementals and ran to the next rune to activate it to destroy the ones that were chasing me. It's just not giving me credit for the runes I destroyed.

PS I'll never do this quest again ! BIG whoopteedoo, you get marks of the world tree for it, no quest items from any of the mobs to help recover what is spent in repairs. 16 gold for 49 gold in repairs ? Pffft

Sincerely,
Meithreus

Commento di pengster

As a hunter, do NOT use Aspect of the Pack or Aspect of the Cheetah.

You can easily be dazed for 4 seconds if you get struck.
And when you have those elementals on your back, 4 seconds of being dazed is the last thing you want.
Clearly it outweighs the speed bump you get.

Commento di 758615

If anyone still has not figured out a way to finish without dieing, you can enter without any mobs and practice if you don't accept the quest first.
Below is the path I use if anyone wishes to use it.
1. Enter the Ingeneous depths
2. Skip the first rune you see and take the fork to the left.
3. Cross the arch and stomp the rune.
4. Turn left,run up the path along the wall, stomp the rune and jump left over the edge.
5. Run over the arch to the right of the "Y",run to the dead end stomping runes as you go.
6. Turn left, run up the incline and stomp the rune.
7. Run forward down the incline, turn right and follow the wall to the next rune and stomp it.
8. Run toward the air vent and jump.
9. After the jump, stomp the rune and jump over the the next air vent.
10. Now you can follow the wall back to the "Y" and finish the last rune before exiting.

Commento di Abiwho

"DON'T PANIC"
Please PLEASE ignore all the doom-sayers in these comments! I read the comments before trying the quest for the first time and they absolutely terrified me, I thought this quest was going to be torture. Not only is it NOT painful, it's kind of fun (a nice break from having to kill things). The mobs are very slow, just keep moving and they'll only get in a swipe or two, wait on one of the runes until a nice pile of them accumulates (when you're on the rune they only hit for about 57, no joke), blow the rune and move on. The best piece of info I've gathered is to make sure you take a hard left at the very beginning, there's a "hidden" rune at a dead end up a little ramp and it's a pain to have to go back and hit it.

Commento di sibbah

its not worth just TWO Marks

Commento di Ergates

For a colourblind person, this is perhaps one of the most frustrating, awful, and miserable questing experiences imaginable. The only time I've suffered something similar was during the 'Simon Says' Ogri'La dailys back in TBC.

Nine deaths, and a 40g repair bill later, I finally did it, via turning the gamma up to max in my settings. I could then, just-about make out a faint dark pattern on the floor of the cave, that I figured must be a rune. This meant that I had no choice to travel round the cave real slowly, painstakingly sweeping the ground to find the runes.

Finally completed it, at around 6% health, screen flashing red, and a whole train of mobs behind me.

Pro-tip for colourblind people - Forget it, it's not worth the pain.

Commento di 913874

This was very easy once I realized I couldn't dps the mobs down. Simple keep moving and look around. There are 2 runes that are difficult to find. One on a ledge on the side, one across a gap with a mind lift.

You don't have to do anything, as the mobs have a slow walk speed. Just run around and stamp the runes.

The ONLY problem I had was that the quest turn in was not where it showed the question mark on the map, but was actually near the portal entrance inside the Firelands.

Good luck.

Commento di TheGreClan

This is a great quest to do if you are also completing .

When you dispel a rune with mobs around you and the quest active you get a grisly token for each mob destroyed. When I was completing this they only seemed to stack up to 6 mobs per rune before they started disappearing and respawning, but thats still 48 'free' mob kills.

As others have said, when standing on a rune you take about 50 damage per hit, so its safe to let the mobs build up.

Commento di YBerion

If you think you are in trouble and flee like I did, don't bother much. The elementals will follow you all the way even until Malfurion's Breach.

Commento di DBlightJordail

If you are having problems with this daily quest, every class in the game, except paladin, has some baseline (ie: All specs have access to the ability) ability to put some distance between you and the elementals chasing you throughout the quest.

Death Knights can go Unholy Presence to maintain a 15% movement speed increase, Chains of Ice
Druids Shapeshift to Cat Form and Sprint, Shapeshift to Bear Form and Stampeding Roar, Nature's Grasp
Hunters: Ice Trap, Disengage
Mage: Blink, Cone of Cold, Frost Bolt
Priest: Inner Will
Rogue: Sprint, Use Crippling Poison and Fan of Knives, Vanish to reset aggro
Shaman: Ghost Wolf, Frost Shock, Earthbind Totem
Warlock: Demonic Leap
Warrior: Heroic Leap away

Some classes have stronger movement cooldowns. This may be useful to someone who accidentally gets knocked into the lava and get swarmed. Remember, while standing inside the blue runes, you get a huge reduction in damage, and can possibly heal back up if your class has some sort of self healing mechanism.

The biggest thing to remember is this: Don't stop running, hit the runes on the move. If you're also doing the Fandral's Methods daily and you are not comfortable with picking up the pieces on the move, all of the enemies will despawn after you clear the eighth rune.

Commento di 630790

It might just be me being dumb, but it took me an age to find the entrance to the igneous depths. You need to head back down the ramp, turn right and head to 57, 49. Once you get there, follow the rest of the really helpful advice written above.

Commento di boiledelephant

This quest is probably the most convincing argument for reading quest descriptions that I've ever seen.

edit - yes, I agree, perpetual, indiscriminate down-raters! A totally empty comment feed is much more useful to everyone! Keep up the good work, silent guardians.

Commento di featalene

Does anyone else think that a counter of how many you've done or the rune location appearing on the minimap or maybe both would be useful?

Commento di stevetl

Grrr. Only died once - ran out of the cavern after only stomping 7 runes. On my next try, I got to the one in the very back by swimming through the lava, then swam back under the bridge. After reading the suggestions here, I will have a walk around before I accept the quest to check the thermals.

I'm OK with an occasional death, we wouldn't want everything to be too easy. I was a bit surprised that you didn't get messages saying how many runes have been stomped, either it was omitted intentionally to make the quest harder or someone was in a rush.

Commento di isgrimnur

This is the worst annoying don't even have words for it quest ever!

Commento di drewy91

I don't think it's been mentioned yet but when I stamped out the runes with the unstable flameragers around it was awarding me grisly trophies for my DMF quest, so gather a few around a rune stamp it out for quick and easy trophies

Commento di Mirrodin

Well i have read most of the comments and i didn't see any comment about that so i am posting to let people know.

If you die and you have clicked on some runes then the quest resets and all clicked runes re-appear.

Commento di BrightBrown

Indeed a badly designed quest in that you have no clue how many rune remain. On one of my deaths, I spent the spirit time really checking everything out...

You really need to immediately go left and jump up onto the ledge to do the first one. Thereafter do a mostly clockwise run. HIGHLY recommend that everyone trying this quest go to icyveins.com and take a look at their map... it IS THE right one!

Commento di pancakelizard

Don't forget that after going in the circle pattern and sealing the one in the middle, there will be one last one up a incline facing your right near the entrance. You will need to go up and right from the middle while on your way back to the front.

Commento di 609813

I've been struggling with the quest for a long time. Finally what I tried was to just run and get all the runs while trying to out run the elementals. This worked actually. The keep coming and you can't kill them all until you destroy the last rune. Once you do, all the elementals disappear. So long story short, keep running and destroy the runs while running.
