Before Deathwing, there were many attempts to infuse a subject with Shadowflame. The only one that survived was Kazzara. Driven mad by the excruciating pain inflicted by her elementium plates, she now serves as the ferocious guardian of the Shadowed Crucible.
On Heroic difficulty, Rays of Anguish will continue to hunt players until they are consumed by a Dread Rift.
On Mythic difficulty, Rays of Anguish will continue to hunt players until they are consumed by a Dread Rift.
The creation of Shadowflame destroyed countless elementals. Now only the strongest remain, Krozgoth and Moltannia. One of shadow, the other fire, these powerful elementals combine their powers to create a force of ultimate destruction.
On the road to develop dracthyr there were many failures. Some of these early versions were too volatile to destroy, and instead kept dormant to protect the world from their brutality. Now they awaken to test their prowess against the champions of Azeroth.
Warlord Kagni leads the Zaqali warband against the crucible. Brutal and Ruthless, Kagni is willing to employ any tactic in order to win.
Rashok, once a great leader of the Zaqali, was imprisoned within these halls for millennia. His molten blood constantly siphoned to power the crucible, the elder was kept on the brink of death driving him mad. Due to the recent chaos, Rashok has broken his restraints and seeks revenge on any that cross his path.
Zskarn walked these halls when they were first formed and bore witness to Neltharion's many profound experiments. Now that the crucible stirs with power once more, Zskarn will stop at nothing to claim the crucible and continue his master's legacy.
Its eyes never close. Its will never breaks. Magmorax, the beast of legend, guards the passage into the deepest chambers of the Shadowed Crucible.
Before the name Deathwing was whispered in terror, Neltharion was known as the Earth-Warder. During this time, the Aspect of Earth used his power to construct a massive hall deep beneath the surface where he accumulated secret knowledge. A visage of the black dragon still resides within the crucible, waiting for an opportunity to continue the work started so long ago... at any cost.
Formerly one of the five Scalecommanders of the dracthyr, Sarkareth broke away to rebel against the dragonflights. Now leader of the Sundered Flame, Sarkareth leads an army into Neltharion's Shadowed Crucible to claim the power within and use it to overthrow the aspects.
UI for this post is weirdly good/readable.
I wondered when Sarkareth was going to pop up again. Didn't expect a raid end boss status, so that's cool.
So who is ready for an entire purple expansion after this? I am
I want that drag as a mount, it's so sick
Holy ^&*! he looks so badass. I want this as a mount
" inflicts damage to the raid based on the total Fire damage taken from over its duration."Seriously? Rasz had this, now the next raid boss has it too?This mechanic is so stupid, the ability to mitigate this varies drastically depending on the class of tank. Either give all tanks proper magic mitigation, or stop doing this style of attack. Just make mechanics that actually do damage to tanks.
He better drop himself as a mount and/or dragon riding customizationJust Sayin.
Kinda surprised Fyrakk is not in this raid
Good thing they made a random NPC we barely know the final boss of the new raid.
Oh man really. Again ? Why Make Sarkareth the end boss ? Sure most wow raidbosses are just one patch. But felt Sarkareth vs Good Drakthyr could tell a could story. He had a pretty good vibe going on. Its like seeing Devos at end of Bastion dungeon again. :/Should have been Fyrak. Hot tempered cringe-villain. Surely a One patch material.
