Objectives

Kill the Lieutenant of Flame.

• Lieutenant of Flame slain

Description

One of Ragnaros' Lieutenants has shown himself at Ragnaros' Reach, the walled area to our northeast.

I hoped to send you as soon as you returned, but I suspect Witherbranch and some of our forces have already joined the fight by now. You should hurry.

You should be able to drop down the cliff wall right here and reach them quickly.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 18 80
• 86750 XP (or 20 67 at max level)
• +350 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal
• [Mark of the World Tree] x3

Progress

Today we cripple their war effort.

Completion

Very well done, <name>! This should delay them significantly.

If we keep this up, we can easily push the fight back to Ragnaros himself.

Notes

Jump down, head northeast across the Magma Springs and up the ramp to Ragnaros' Reach. Witherbranch and another Druid of the Talon are in wait at ^{[47.7, 27.7]}.

The Lieutenant of Flame is one of the following individuals:

• Ancient Charscale
• Cinderweb Queen
• Ancient Smoldering Behemoth
• Devout Harbinger
• Ancient Firelord

Witherbranch has 774,000 health, but no heals, so this fight cannot take too long. The druid NPC will toss out heals on occasion, though. Go all out. Return to Malfurion's Breach upon the Ancient Firelord's death.
