Reply Posted by Anenga < Warriors Realm > on 2005-01-17 16:08:47 How do you get to this place? I heard it's near the entrance of BRD, but where exactly? And how long is it? where is this place. is it open?

Reply Posted by Victem on 2005-01-17 20:59:20 whre is this instance? is it open or something to come like marudon was. Reply Posted by Philippos Exodia > on 2005-01-18 23:37:23 Tier 2 instance that harbors the "Fire God". Tier 2 as opposed to Tier 1 meaning 2x harder than Onyxia's Lair. Probably some post-epic item drops here. BRD

Reply Posted by Mirra < Vicious Cycle > on 2005-01-19 06:54:42 This is instance is inside of BRD, after you complete the seven ghosts you can take a path to it (also near the dark iron forge). Location

Reply Posted by zerofactor on 2005-01-20 09:33:28 The enterance is inside of Blackrock Depths.



It's fter you clear the Room of Seven or whatever the name of it is, and before you enter the Lyceum.



You kill the 7 spirits in the Room of Seven and go through the door, instead of going straight into the Lyceum, take a right. You fight 2 sets of 3 of the Fireguard elementals, one set, cross a bridge, another set. In front of you you'll see a green glowing portal. That's Molton Core.



Note: This is a raid instance, and it's not single pull mobs, the mobs are easily doable if you could get one, but they come in sets of two and hit very hard. I went with a random group one night and we didn't get past the enterance, overall we were able to kill 2 mobs, First pull we killed one and then wiped, and then we were able to pull the one that was left and kill that. We tried the second group of mobs, wiped, and left.



Good luck. Reply Posted by Skutten on 2005-01-27 06:52:15 Latest ive heard is that conquest guild got down their second named right now...yikes Reply Posted by rogueofdoom on 2005-02-01 11:37:47 Conquest guild also just got banned to exploits in MC. instance cooldown

Reply Posted by kendack on 2005-02-05 02:03:53 it also has a 7day (approx) cooldown time, since the instance literally takes days to complete. so basically, once you enter the instance, it doesnt refresh until 7 days later. Days to complete?

Reply Posted by Cheryes on 2005-02-05 16:56:47 How does an instance have a "cooldown"? My server attempted 2 molten core runs, a day apart. umm

Reply Posted by Contren on 2005-02-06 00:48:27 Its a cooldown per party.



Cooldown

Reply Posted by Akaji on 2005-02-06 13:30:45 To prevent MC from resetting you must not disband the raid party; it needs to have the same leader and at least one other member in it at all times. You can do this by having all the members of the raid alt+F4 to log out, leaving their character in the raid party (normal logging and /exit occasionally boot the person from the raid and are not suggested). Doing MC

Reply Posted by Akaji on 2005-02-06 13:32:34 As the name implies, Molten Core is full of fire-based mobs.



If you can get every member of your raid, or at least all of the melee characters, to have 250-300 Fire Resistance (yes, it is possible; up to 60 resistance from buffs [Fire Resistance Aura gives you this at level 60], plus 190-240 from items) it will go a LOT better for you. Reply Posted by Johnl on 2005-02-12 23:28:42 Hmmmm, Fire Resistance, or stats? Fire Resistance, or stats? Stats it is, just have to know how to do it is all. A thought about Molten Core drops

Reply Posted by Torall on 2005-02-15 07:18:38 Can't wait 'till my guild has enough lvl60s to take on this instance.

One thing I've noticed though is that there's a couple of blue items that look to be vendor junk, Firey Core and Lava Core.

What's the betting that these aren't vendor junk but are component parts for a weapon or armor that you can craft?

Maybe a pattern dropped by Ragnoros himself?

Just seems a little odd that blue junk would drop with a value no greater than regular junk. Fiery Core, Lava Core

Last edit: 2005-02-15 11:00:58 Posted by Havard on 2005-02-15 11:00:03 I'm pretty sure these are a few of the items that Lokhtos Darkbargainer accepts as gifts to up your rep with the Thorium Brotherhood. He's holed up in the bar in BRD, in the little pantry past the bartender.



He also accepts offerings of dark iron ore, but for as much of a pain in the butt as it is to get 10 ore, the minimal rep boost that results is a real letdown.



Hopefully these gifts will be a muchfaster way to get rep with them. Thorium?

Last edit: 2005-03-02 10:51:26 Posted by nehara on 2005-03-02 10:34:19 We had a raid group of 40 level 60's, Horde side on Silverhand. On our third attempt there we got all the way to Lucifron. Each time you go in you learn the nuiances of the various MOB's. If anyone has some stratagy for fighting the MOB's in Molten Core, perhaps the entire WoW community would benefit if we would post tactics that we have learned.



I.e. Ancient Core Hounds are better fought when the tanks in your group keep them facing away from your main party due to an area effect.



Core Hounds are in packs of 5 and need to be killed at the same time because they will revive each other. raid groups?

Reply Posted by quinna on 2005-03-04 04:43:12 Can anyone please tell me how the loot system works in a raid group? Reply Posted by kja5 on 2005-03-05 13:30:24 My first time in here, in a group of 30 lvl 60s...Its HORRIBLE



We have been wiped 3 times on the same pull now.

I never thought id say that 30 lvl 60s isnt enough heh...



I am estimating that normal mobs that you fight 2 a t a time have close to 1 million HP. And hit for 2000, crit for 3000. Reply Posted by Faust_Dagon on 2005-03-08 15:00:00 35 to 40 should do it, with good tactics, and since its a 40 player ca[ raid, you better work on tactics not as much numbers :P Fire based mobs?

Reply Posted by sephirolus on 2005-03-09 02:22:22 Never been there, so correct me if i'm wrong, but will fire resistance from fire resistance totem be of any use in this place?



and 1,000,000 hp??? goddamn! For the hounds since u gotta kill them all at the same time, maybe a well organized dozen mages with healers assigned to each is an okay strategy? I have no idea what i'm talking about, i have never been there, so don't judge me too harshly. Plz do correct me if I am wrong..... Hmm

I know the allies made an attempt today and from what ive heard they didnt go a logn way into that place.





Hopefully in 1 month we will be around 300-400 lvl 60 hordes which will be a possibel way to get 40 in there to go kick some mobs :O) and die a bunch, thats wouldnt be new to me, love to be a mage. Stronger than Onyxia...?

Reply Posted by ApocalypseDragon on 2005-03-18 01:14:56 My guild-mates tell me that the boss in Molten Core is twice as strong as Onyxia. I heard Onyxia is really strong, so there's no kills for the boss, right? (would've though so.) Ragnaros

Reply Posted by jonathanroth on 2005-03-27 15:15:08 Heres the thing guys, Having gone through nearly every instance (except onyxia and MC) I can truly say that it's not numbers, but skill. I'm not sure how many of you have cleaned Strath in a 5 man team, but it's been done and 2x. We've done every instance besides those 2 above mentioned with a 5 man team and always come out successful. You can't just PUG and think you are going to roll over an instance, it takes teamwork, and a fluidity where the leader doesn't even have to say a word, everyone just does what they're supposed to, the druid innervates the priest at the right time and everyone keeps everything under control. I'd put up my team of 30 lvl 60's against any other team of 40 any day. (man that would be badass in the arena, 2 raids dueling) back on topic... what I suggest it to take strath as a warm-up, complete it at least through, no worrying about quests or anything, just clean it out completely, then head over and try to do MC. this will force you to work in a smaller group and carry that through to MC, the 2 groups that had to be formed in Strath should each take a mob (since they run in 2 group waves right?) Guess the bottom line here is, it's not impossible, stop complaining about it being hard, and work for it. Wipe 5- 10 15 times, just git'er done and come out with fantastic loot, huge bragging rights and very tired wrists, itll feel good guys. sorry for the noobnees

Reply Posted by neobahamut0 on 2005-03-28 21:11:04 sryy, but im not really sure what the term "wioe" refers to , i keep on forgetting that this is a game and we don't have diarreha with all the wiping going on. hmm well...

Reply Posted by DRAGGIN on 2005-03-29 20:20:49 I've been though MC 2 times up to magnadar (the second "boss" fight if you count Lucifron as a boss) lucifron 4 times total. We killed Lucifron on our first try, and the last time we did it he killed about 25-30 of us and we finished him off with about 15 people. The pulls are ugly and the bosses, and mini bosses have tons of life, (i believe Magnadar has about 750,000 hp). There is definatly a need of skilled leaders, and a group of 40 people that can take directions, and listen to them. Every boss fight takes completely different tactics and lots of trys :) to perfect. On our fourth try Lucifron died in 1-1.5 hrs of starting the instance. learn to love frost spells mages, and do your homework on the fights, and other than that, keep trying. :p

GOOD LUCK ON MC GUYS MC Quest?

Reply Posted by david0925 on 2005-03-30 00:44:32 I heard that there's a quest that allows u to port in MC from outside of BRD since u cant enter BRD with 40 people now. Is this the quest? or is it somethign else? As for "hardness" ...

Ragnaros is the Living Flame, an ancient being of ... well, flames ^^



and I pray that Conquest finishes their writeup for the MC and that they get around pawning Ragnaros' fiery little ass :)



Go Conquest, Go ! tatics, gear, and skill needed

Reply Posted by guitarplayam on 2005-04-01 11:34:38 Guild cleaned up Lucifron rather handily last night, got Magmadar down to 20% before priest went LD, MT died rather fast. We got to Lucifron in about an hour and a half, no wipes...



However this is our third run in...first two runs were full of hot firey deaths and frustration...however you learn from your experience, and it helps you perform as a better raid...practice and determination are needed.



Tips for MC



1.) If you try to zerg anything in the zone, whether regular trash mobs or bosses...you will die, and you will die badly...too many peeps have been doing non-challenging zerg runs in strath/scholo/UBRS, and it will show on your first run in. Sound tactics, and sound skill are needed.



2.) Your main tank is the absolute most critical person in the raid...as long as mobs focus is on the MT, and the MT gets proper healing (from all in raid not just healers in group) you will survive.



3.) Much better off to take in the same group of peeps day in and day out...so you get used to playing in the same group and same raid...so you can learn to work as a team. Pickup raids to MC are almost always doomed from the get go.



4.) Pallies, priests, druids, and mages need to be on their best dispelling game...debuffs are almost constant in MC, and if you dont dispell in timely fashion you will die.



GOOD LUCK everyone ! Slow down

Reply Posted by Tankboi on 2005-04-01 13:56:28 this big badass flame god wont be so high and mighty when the wow expansion comes out in late 05 and the max lvl cap is uped. and instead of facing lvl 60 tanks and mages he is gone be stairing down the swinging sword of a lvl 80 tauren warrior or even higher!.

any way back to reality as said b4 tanks are esential in this instance, and so are guilds. u want to get the most ecperienced MC tanks around not only for their strategies but because MC allso drops the battlegear of might, the infamous warrior epic set, wich makes warriors all but nuke proof. allso if ur raid grp has taken down onyxia (wich should be easy if ur doing MC now) ur tanks would definetly want the highblade to make tanks hurt as much with a sword and shield as they would with a 2h. Guilds are unfortunetly essential as u need the consistancy of teamwork and discipline to execute this living hell of a place got a noob question

Reply Posted by Baffy on 2005-04-03 19:50:30 Yeah i got a noobish question, how does the raid group loot system work? Let's say me and 20 other guys kill onyxia and we're in a group. Then can everybody roll on the items she drops or just the group that tapped her? Caledon pwnz MC k thnx byes

Reply Posted by Pog on 2005-04-07 07:23:37 Caledon on Kel Thuzad just took down all bosses besides Major Domo and Ragnaros this last weekend. We did it quiet easily too; every boss went down like clockwork once we got Magmadar to drop (Magmadar is by far the most difficult boss in this zone so far, lol). The only thing "tier 2" about this place has to be Ragnaros.



By the way, for all those who are lvl 20 yet going gaga over MC, consider doing yourself a favor and finding a good guild soon. Without organized players who play constantly with each other, this place just can't be done. Looking for the Schematic...

Reply Posted by darkshadows1022 on 2005-04-12 03:32:38 I know this sounds pretty stupid, and I apologise in advace for this, but i'm looking for the CMR schematic. I'll make one for anyone who get's me the schematic and the cores...I can't make it in there with my current guild. Send tells to Flicker on Lothar or send COD for the amount you deem fit (less than 100g would be nice....) Magmadar

Reply Posted by imoc on 2005-04-13 18:49:57 well on my first run Silence (any many others) kill magmadar on second wipe against him...we had a few silly wipes but thats in the past....he is a hard boss though i must admit..took ALONG time to get him down..was fun tho..to bad no warlock drops ;) heh well we were first on Silverhand to kill him so poo on the hordlings :P well anyways gl to all of you (specially silverhand hordlings) The Expansion is FAKE

Reply Posted by -Ghaleon- on 2005-04-15 20:29:14 Some noob is talking about "the expension coming in late 05". That was a horrible joke, of which only total IDIOTS would fall for. The level cap won't be raised for a long, long time, and there will most likely not be an expansion. Ever. Reply Posted by sarahbau on 2005-04-16 06:06:44 jonathanroth, you're right that it's not about the numbers, but you can't start comparing Molten Core to Stratholm and Scholomance. I've done Scholo, and both sides of Strath with 5 person groups just as you have, but MC takes a group of 40 people who are each capable of doing 5 person Scholo groups. Even with 40 good people, it's still much harder than doing a 5-man Strath or Scholo run. Now, my group has been able to take the first two giants with only 25 people, but most were dead at the end of that first pull. Until Magmadar is killed, you really have to watch your time, since the Ancient Core Hound patrols are on a 15-18 minute respawn timer. Even in a 40 person group, if you go too slow, and are fighting two Molten Giants, and an Ancient Core Hound comes in, you're likely to wipe, or at least have a lot of deaths. I know from experience that they can go through a cloth wearer like a hot knife through butter. I've been killed in one hit, for 3899 damage (non-crit, and not a special attack). And these are just the "trash mobs." It might be possible to get to Lucifron, and maybe even beat him with 30 people, but I don't think they would get much farther. ragnoras deafeated?

Reply Posted by aznfreekx2 on 2005-04-17 23:19:29 my friend who has a lvl 60 shaman on argent dawn told me that his guild summoned ragnoras to orgrimmar and defeated him. donno if its true but maybe some of you argent dawn ppl can tell me. No Expansion?

Reply Posted by some_random_guy on 2005-04-18 17:50:11 What makes you think there will never be an expansion for WoW? Blizzard has made expansions for pretty much every game they've ever made. I haven't heard anything of plans for an expansion, but they also havent said anything about not making one. Reply Posted by Mirrozoom on 2005-04-19 11:19:27 first of all. the boss of MC, Ragnoras dont come to Ogrimmar. And no 1 have defeated him yet. There's rumor that some guild have gotten him to 65% HP but not confirmed. Phat bosses

Reply Posted by traevis on 2005-04-19 15:39:52 Me and my guildies went of to this instance to day to give it a shot.

Some tips are to be followed; firelords will spawn 60+ elementals, they also summon more, so you need to kill those asap.

When it comes to the first boss; Lucifron, pull the adds down in the camp, and tank pulls him to the right corner, then it should be np.

We also tried Magmadar with 1 hunter, (?)

First try and we got him down to 69% with ONE hunter.

I have heard rumors of that Magmadar is gagging with 750000 hp so have patiance. Btw might shoulders dropped from Lucifron ;) Expansion

Reply Posted by Iloll on 2005-04-22 07:22:41 Blizz has mentioned "Hero Classes" which everyone ive talked to assumes is some kinda of level cap increase. I dont know if thats true, it could also be additional classes (besides warrior, mage, ect) that have to be leveled from 1. But if Blizz does plan on raising caps it will not be for a long long long long long time. (3 months between patches here, come on.) If they do raise caps, yes, MC will be much less difficult. I assume that the maraudon bosses would seem very godly to a group of lv 20s. But if the cap goes up (haha) dont you think they would add even higher lv dungons? that would be beyond impossible for lv 60's? just my 2c Concerning hunters

Reply Posted by Saphide on 2005-04-22 07:39:16 I was wondering how far in Majordomo is, since it will affect hunters (due to the fact that you have to kill him to get the lvl 60 quest)I just hope to ever see this instance.. But I probably won't.. being a hunter and all.

If someone could answer my question it would be most apreciated. thanks :) try to get the mages out of AoE

Reply Posted by Scylax on 2005-04-24 19:50:40 Im from the alliance guild Iconoclast on the server Mannoroth. We've taken down every boss in MC and have summoned ragnaros. Our latest run through MC we killed every boss first try, no wipes. Molten Core is all about slow and steady. You dont have your mages and rogues go all out dps because then the mobs will jump agro and wipe ur group. If you can come up with a system to keep mobs on ur tanks, get a good healer rotation up than molten core is not difficult at all. The first time we summoned rag we got him as low as 71%.

Reply Posted by Patty81 on 2005-05-03 07:47:45 Server: Gul'dan (EU-DE)

Player: Patty (Tauren Druid Level 60)

Well, Saturday at 7PM, someone mentioned that he wants to try MC, I've just read some News about it and called him, because I wanted to try it out, too.

At first we splited the groups, because everyone had to collect the Core-Fragment first.

1st Problem was, that after the Patch on Friday the Core Fragment is not longer in MC, it is BEVOR the Entrance now!

Ok, everyone has had a Group of 6-10 Persons and made the Quest, and then at 9PM we started to go in MC and jumped through the Window into the Instance. Wiped on Lucifron at Weekend...

Reply Posted by Patty81 on 2005-05-03 07:48:50 No one of us has had any Idea of what their will come onto us, so we fist wiped on the Firelord, because we didn't know, that every 30-60 sec. a little Firebaby spawns, and that this has to be killed asap, otherwise it will do same like the slimes in Un'Goro, 1 gets 2, but 2 gets 4, 4 gets 8 and so on, we didn't know that and wiped with 32 little Firebabys...

K then we read it and got it without any problems...

2nd Problem, the Ancient Core Hound, he makes a disgusting AoE, but we took him down, with some deaths, but got him. The Trick is that the Tanks pull him facing away from the whole group, so we screamed in TS, I want to see his big fat stinky ass ^^...

well, the Core Hounds spawn every 18 Minutes, that makes it a bit critical, if much persons die, or you are not fast enough...

Ok after 2-3 Hours we got in the Cave of Lucifron, we saw him, after we killed the Imps und let the 2nd Group of Imps standing, where they are...

3rd Problem the Group of 5 Core Hounds...

We pulled them and killed them randomly, then we realized, that they stand up after some time, got wiped surely.

We checked the Internet and read, that EVERY Core Hound has to be dead in a time of 10 SECONDS after the 1st is fallen, otherwise the 1st fallen will stand up with 100% HP again, and so it will never end... Wiped on Lucifron at Weekend...

Reply Posted by Patty81 on 2005-05-03 07:50:10 So we punched them down to 10-20% of Life and took the next, only the Warrior hold him with healer, so when every Core Hound is under 20% we gave the Go, and everyone who can makes AoE, so we never got a Problem with them anymore, worked every time without much deaths.

4.Problem Lucifron...

Ok we have killed the both packages of Core Hounds and now we tried to kill Lucifron, not sure about his really bad Curse...

Well, we pulled him und tried to fight him with his 2 adds together, but after few seconds everyone was pounded down by his Curse, which makes 2000 Damage every 2 Seconds for 6 Seconds, so 6000 Damage in 6 seconds, a Mage and Priest can survive 3 seconds Rogue Druid 5 and every else is dead after 6 Seconds...

We then tried to pull Lucifron away from the Group by sharing aggro with 2 tanks which permanently got healed, but we couldn't hold him long enough, the Priests fallen on his Curse and the Tanks got no more Healing, so Lucifron come to the rest of the Group and wiped it.

We got wiped 2 times without any kill, on our 3.Try we got the first add down and were happy, but what did we see, as Lucifron and his 2nd Add goes back, after the last one of us died, the 1st Add respawns :(

We tried it again and got both Adds down, but then Lucifron killed us again.

After the Core Hounds respawned and we killed them again, we tried Lucifron again, because we came his dead near and near.

We got him on 74 % and then on 64%, but never killed him, now it was 4AM and we decided to start another try on Sunday Evening 5PM.

In the beginning, of the Instance we run through it like a 10-Raid through Stratholme or anything else, but then we got uncareful and pulled too much and wiped. Wiped on Lucifron at Weekend...

Reply Posted by Patty81 on 2005-05-03 07:50:27 Ok, we concentrated and got back to Lucifron, but some members from the Saturday-Try were absent, so we have invited some others, it was so disastrous, that we never got him down, we wiped 6 times and only 3 times we got his Adds totally down, he was on 99, 98 and 98% on this 3 tries, before we all died...

So it was already 12PM and much had to go to work next day, so we gave it up again.

We now decided, to control more carefully, who comes in the Raidgroup and not to invite everyone, who has the Core-Fragment, only to get 40 random Persons together, our next try will be on Friday or Saturday I think.

The Interesting on this is, that we got Lucifron down to 64% with only 4 Priests and 3 Druids, and wiped on 98% with 6 Priests and 4 Druids o_O

Well, we will see, how far we can go on our next try, I think we just have to try very much, to get him, I don't believe, that he will get easy, but sometimes we will get him, I hope!

Or has anyone the absolutely sure Hint how to kill him save?

The Allis have the imba Pallas, who can take him down very easy as I read, but we don't have this massdisspelling, I think Blizz should make his Curse into an illness, or give the Shammis a Totem for Curses, I have tried to disspell everyone from the Curse as fast as I can, but I couldn't click fast enough :(

Without CTRaid, I couldn't ever see who has Curse, so I installed it, but the Curses came to fast, after I has dispelled the last one the first have the Curse again...

He has a really bad Curse and another spell he puts Manacosts to twice, so my Mana runs out really fast only by dispelling the Raidmembers...

Well, we will keep trying, and someday we will get him down!!! ;) To The Guy Who Says Slow Down

Reply Posted by unspoken on 2005-05-03 17:17:48 Your idea of Blizzard increasing the lvl cap to 80 or above actually made me laugh. Think about it logically, do you know how much material they would need to add to the game for an extra 20 levels!! There is no way that in late 05 they are increasing the level cap to 80 or above sorry but thats just rediculous. no expansions, no raised level cap

Reply Posted by neuman696 on 2005-05-06 14:53:07 there will never be an expansion pack for this game, ever. bliz has already said that new content will be released for free with your subscription. and hero classes does not equal higher level cap. it means more specialized, generally harder to play classes, for the players that have mastered the existing classes. there prob never will be a level cap increase as that would make existing content way too easy. To all you EQ'ers

Reply Posted by jackshaftoe22 on 2005-05-06 16:55:38 Didn't they raise the level cap in EQ? more than once?



blizzard (ahem, vivendi) has made several shiploads of benjamins on this game, and with the impending release in China, prolly more like several armadas. more than enough cash to hire monkeys to write out new content.



If the content runs out, we quit playing.



we quit playing, no more lewt for Vivendi (blizz?).



ergo, new items, new dungeons, new spells, new recipes (profession caps raised???), and imho, prolly new levels (maybe 10 at a time? 5 sets of skills? maybe less...).



if blizz doesn't, they're stupid. blub blub

Reply Posted by TheMark33 on 2005-05-07 22:30:05 Hi, was wondering what the best size raid is to do molten core, or at least wondering what the minimum size should be. Raid

Reply Posted by bigwookie on 2005-05-08 13:10:29 Well, unless you are a very well practiced group and been in the MC several times and have alot of Uber gear and Fire Resists, I would stick to the raid of 40. Fourty is the max, I would say with an Elite group 32 would be the least.



Lucifcron has a really bad curse that causes 2000 damager over 10 sec. It was actually Magic the last time I went in and can be dispelled. However, he also casts 2 other effects, one which is a curse that causes all spells to cost double mana. He also has mind control and if one is not fast to dispel it, it can be your ending.



As far as being locked in in the instance, you can now check with /raidinfo if you are saved in one. It did not save us until we were in there for 6 hours and had killed no bosses. We are now saved for 6 days. MC

But the video shows the whole successfull attempt, he IS doable, with a full raid group :)

Reply Posted by cjsouthpaw on 2005-05-29 03:37:23 bloomy awesome guys, gj taking him down. My raid just struggled with Lucy. We got him to 42% and wiped... Key is to have the tank take him in the corner while you make light work of his bud's. Problem however is, yeah you may have good amount of people left, health, mana even... but... it isn't just curses people... he has a nasty MAGIC spell that does 2k damage after 10sec's and priests MUST BE ON THE BALL. Curses, yeah they suck, make you extremely weak to his spells and druids/mages MUST get rid of them. I know what our problem was, not enough priests/warriors. you have to outlast lucy till his mana is gone, then he's a one at a time hitter and if you still have your raid up and healthy it really should be a problem Guild killed him last week no wipes

Reply Posted by Assur on 2005-05-29 18:30:16 Yeah we are getting him down to a farm now. Last week we killed him first try with 0 wipes!!!! Trying him again tonight we will see how we do. ragnos sounds like a titan or something

Reply Posted by Torrence on 2005-05-31 16:42:04 i have never done MC (or any blackrock instances for that matter) but from what i have read hear he sounds like something that can only be killed 1 in 50 tries ---scary--- snapshot? wierd

Reply Posted by Getches229 on 2005-06-01 11:45:32 first in the dialogue box it says ragnos has died. but if you look over at the raid group ragnos is alive still and healthy. so did you have a druid that waited that long to revive someone or did you take a snapshot of him and superimposed the word dead on him. cut him out and turn him.???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????// ?

it repeats f*** yes f*** yes

but if you look it has been wiped away , and if you look closely enough you can see it says the word under it. worldofwarcraft naturally bleaps out vulgar words or comments. nononononono

Reply Posted by Ronanthehunter on 2005-06-01 14:15:28 go to www.files.filefront.com there is a video of a guild named Nightmares Asylum pwning Ragnaros. It takes them 3 tries, and the first they get him to 3% life and the second they get it to 1% then they beat it ^_^ A-DURRRR

Reply Posted by evercau on 2005-06-01 23:29:37 #1. Uh, the Paladin you are referring to is not Ragnaros. Please re-read the name carefully. Also, Ragnaros is a big mean flameyguy, not a paladin that would show up in your raid group in CTRaid.

#2. Not to call you a noob, noob, but you can turn off the profanity filter in interface options. I figured that out at about level 2.

#3. Do you think that Ragnaros is a giant hammer? Nossir, that's what's left after he dies- a giant freakin' hammer.

#4. A-DURRR.

#5. Great detective work, sport! Na killing raganros

Reply Posted by shmitzzzul on 2005-06-03 03:11:58 firstly if you read it takes them 2 days non stop killing him. That is a video of there best attempts. And god knows how long they spent trying to kill him befor that. People seem to not understand how hard this guy is. Na.

How about an "all ice" one so we fire mages can do what we do best... burn things?



Then again, i did hear through rumor bout the tier 3 dungeon (one after Nefarrian)... heard it would be ice/nature elements.



Could be wrong tho... Ok

Reply Posted by CriticalFailure on 2005-06-14 00:54:26 since all these monsters are like level 300+, do they resist an uncool amount of spells? i forget how the reasonably high level monsters work. thanks. Fire mages in MC

Reply Posted by Cantor < Total Control > on 2005-06-17 05:51:38 You'll find that the mobs in MC actually have a higher resistance to frost spells that fire spells, so all you fire mages should be ok. However, you might want to tone down the DPS slightly - ice mages are ok because their DPS is marginally lower, whereas fire mages are very powerful, and can pull aggro from the MT if they spam all out Mostly true others ive heard about

Reply Posted by Zenexis on 2005-06-23 21:15:19 I ve heard that two pallys soloed this instance and got the only red item in the game and its a recipie to a mace. however these characters are husband and wife and they have maxed out their characters more than anyone else in the game. so if ur wondering why only two pallys where here. i ve also heard that all the items for this to make the mace i was talking about are here as well i think you get them off the bosses. but i saw a screen shot of it and it looks pretty sweet cant wait till im 60 you are crazy

Reply Posted by dakmor1 on 2005-06-26 06:24:47 2 of any class could never solo this instance unless they exploited like no other...its not physically possible for 2 chars to solo this instance you heard wrong and i can't believe u believed that story... impossible

The guy who asked about looting rules, heres ur answer: Depends what guild you are running with. These days, its based on dkp(dragon-kill-points). You get points for being an active player and then you simply buy drops for dkp. This system is not used by everyone. But from what i know, almost every guild is starting to use it. Ok. ontopic again now. My guild hasnt even done Onyxia yet. i know we're slow, but hey. We're having fun! Our first raid will take place in a few hours and i'll prolly sleep during the raid, duh.. But i'm not like all those other so called "random noobs". I know what this is about, its about teamwork(ofcourse it has to do with numbers, but its not gonna work with 40 people and no tactics, it aint gonna work with 10 people and perfect tactics either. Somewhere between). You should pick easier raid targets for a beginning(like teremus in blasted lands) to learn how to work with eachother. you should do it again and again and again and again until it runs perfectly. then you take on kazzak or azuregos(correct me if im wrong, but they are easier then onyxia). Then when they run smooth, you take out onyxia. Now, you need some kickass gear to do molten core(this is where i get to the point :p). So you have to be prepared(Noo, shadowcraft is not kick-ass enough /sigh). You need much nicer shit than that, like the onyxia drops. She drops really nice items and they should help you along the way. Good Luck and Have fun!

Reply Posted by Meltorfas on 2005-07-04 02:01:31 a great way to learn cooperativeness and how to work well in a raid is just doing mad BG> go join as group, it may take a while, being in a large group like a 40 man raid takes alot of teamwork and great communication. as for those bosses that us eall that mana, a quicker way of taking him out is having LOTS of priests mana burning him, and the rest of them healing your tanks and such. alot of people dig the whole shadow priest thing, and it is great for pvp, but you cant beat a holy priests healing capability. thats a big part of it is being able to keep your raid alive long enough to kill these monstrous things. ive been to MC twice and wiped both times on ragnaros. it is true, he is way harder than most people who havent fought him think. he is just that, the boss of a 40 person raid instance!. theres a reason you need all those people,lol. Thanks

Reply Posted by Emph on 2005-07-05 13:41:59 Thanks Cantor. I havent been to MC YET, tho i have been a 60 fire mage for bout 3 months now. (sad, huh?) Good to know i won't be completely worthless in there.

Reply Posted by Asrudin < Eternus Animus > on 2005-07-20 09:14:56 Was in a guild. Kept wiping on the first boss Lucifron. (Got only 1 add down in every try) It was chaotic and unorganized.



Went to different guild. Much more organized. Wiped once due to bad luck of some crits on the MT at the wrong time and Lucifron going ballistic on the clothies at 40%. Tried again and brought her down with no, I repeat, no losses at all. This was yesterday.



Key to lucifron is decursing.



Tried magmadar but kept wiping. We have to work on the tactic and give the Tranq hunters a working rotation. And must remember to keep away from corehound spawns...



Today we are gonna have another go at Magmadar, a bit more carefull planning and I am sure we will bring Maggy down just as easy as Lucy :)



We have 3 tranq hunters in the guild now so lack of tranq is not the problem. Reply Posted by FullMetalTurtle on 2005-07-20 17:26:36 .. no, just no

You need good leadership and people who will listen. Sadly this was a pickup group and it fell apart right before Lucifron. But for a bunch of rabble (many who were first timers like me) we did okay.

Guys, "username" has a point. This should have been pointed out to him earlier. The entrance is in the back of Shadow Hold in Felwood. You need to make your way through and kill both mini-bosses at the end. Then wait for the entrance to the instance to spawn near the back of this room. This only happens every other hour approximately, so you might need to wait, but it will be well worth it. Don't go AFK because the entrance will only stay open for about 20 seconds. As soon as you enter and "unlock" this instance you will be attuned to Molten Core and you can teleport there at any time. Hope this helps. mc does not take long

that is wrong. a full molten core run from start to finish can be done in less than 3 hours. the week timer is so people cant farm it every day. the twelve prophets do it easily in under 3 hours. they could do it 3 times if it had no timer, that is why there is a timer. loot system

Reply Posted by bryl on 2005-08-03 08:29:46 All i can say to u- is BOLLOCKS-listen carefully,,its a 40 man raid instance..do u know what that means? it means it was set up for 40 ppl to enter,, (because it IS that hard), ok ok u might be able to do it with 39 men, but boy that would even decrease ur chances of even smelling victory!ALOT

i had to wait until my guild merged with another guild and i have began molten core two weeks ago, and we got magmadar down to 35% Reply

Last edit: 2005-08-08 00:37:06 Posted by Baranaz on 2005-08-08 00:36:18 oh and you dont need 40 people, lucifron can be downed with 30- people easily

edit: but that is luci, of course more are needed for the others, but a guild on my server downed luci with 24 people. I solo'ed ragnaros

Reply Posted by xvx on 2005-08-08 19:53:30 yes, tis true, i solo'ed this godly beast. I pulled my pants down and showed him my dick, and when he started laughing, i stabbed him in the eye. he fell over, and then i repeatidly stabbed him more and more. Good game! YEA its true

Reply Posted by cctisgood on 2005-08-08 20:03:43 tis true i seen him do it and i laughed too but then when i seen the mighty ragnamotha fall down i laughed even more. He smythed him with his lil wiener so tis true my friends The enterance

Reply Posted by taetra on 2005-08-09 20:36:28 Once you are attuned, jump through the window next to Lothos Riftwalker and you will instantly portal to MC. Don't jump though unless you are attuned, you'll just fall into lava and probably die. Also, don't jump if there is really bad lag. A few times, I've jumped and didn't zone in so I just landed in lava. Pretty annoying. Reply Posted by Souljah116 on 2005-08-10 03:35:27 fire resistance or stats?for rag ummm id say fire resist...for the flame pacts.......fire resist.Everything else stats Reply Posted by Souljah116 on 2005-08-10 03:37:23 Bullshit more please u cant do MC or Onyxia with 15 people,its impossible. grow a penis Reply Posted by San-J on 2005-08-10 04:33:00 My guild just starting running this a week ago, and I finally hit 60 tonight in time for the latest run. Guild had cleared Lucifron on the previous night, so this night we were going to shoot for Magmadar. We had a great leader, but that didn't help us when a hunter caught aggro from his ranged position up where the rogues, healers, and spellcasters where standing, and Magmadar hurled an AoE - DoT fireball at his feet, wiping 20 of us within 3 seconds.



Second try we kept aggro on our warriors but still wiped, this time because.. well I am not sure what actually went wrong, but we died when he was around 95%.



Apparently it took our guild several nights to get Lucifron down, so I am just hoping that the problem with Magmadar was just that we need to get adjusted to him.



Great instance, btw! Reply Posted by pinkyfloydy17 on 2005-08-10 20:50:20 Molten Core is a 40 man instance and it does have a cooldown of seven days, its not to so they cannot farm or anything, no! This instance is really hard even with 40 man, you can't do anything unless you use strategies. The best strategie i have seen so far was by the alliance guild Conquest. Someone above mentioned their website. Pick up raids don't really work coz people, who dont have experience with Molten Core will fail in it's accomplishment. The more you do the instance the better you get at it. Once you know all the bosses and all the tricks, it is fairly easy to beat down 5 bosses in one night. The whole fire resistance bullshit, you dont need fire resistance in order to survive, just have all the blue items that you get in stratholme, scholomance, ubrs and other high end instances. The new instance that's coming out, the 20 man one, might have some sweet items that can be used in MC.

To get attuned to the zone, you need to do BRD (blackrock depths), you can even do it at lvl 55-60. In order to get attuned you need to get a quest from a night elf who stands in front of you before you take a right to go BRD after you walk down the chain. You need to kill the "Seven" bosses and then take a right not going to Lyceum. After you clear some fire elementals you will see a huge instance portal, that is Molten Core, if you move your mouse to the left and you will finally be able to loot a piece of rock right next to the instance, once you do that go back to the night elf and get attuned.

To actually enter the instance you need to jump inside a window next to the night elf to your left. You HAVE to have a raid party, otherwise it will not let you.

Instance is Tier2 but there is already blackwing lair, which is Tier3 therefore Nefarius is going to be fucking ridiculous, good luck all! might be wrong

Reply Posted by blgdinger on 2005-08-13 03:39:25 killed raggy last night with a 20man raid. wasn't too bad.



i'll have screenshots soon as i get them seriously

Reply Posted by Bladeswinger on 2005-08-13 16:23:24 tou guys who think u can enter this instance at the one moment u lvl 60..



it's impossible, imagine all the raidmembers running around in there, with uncommon equipment (doesnt make u bad, but u'll need at least, as told earlier, 200-300 fire resist), u'll need to make like many, many, many usuall lvl 60 instances first (Strat,scholo etc.) for the equpi needed to go in there.. i've been lv 60 for 3 weeks and didnt get 1 part of the equipment i need, so just so u know, getting in here aint that easy.. Reply Posted by Asrudin < Eternus Animus > on 2005-08-16 05:50:02 For an average guild doing 3-4 bosses a run 3 times a week MC is clearable in about 12 hours not counting Ragnaros.



An elite guild, experienced people and orginisation have cleared MC all the way in one run including Ragnaros in one single evening around 6 hours.



For a semi experienced guild I'd say it should be easy enough to do Lucifron to Shazzrah in one evening (5ish hours) then another evening up until Majordomo (5ish hours) and another evening doing Ragnaros (2ish hours) is what should be doable for any partially decent guild. BIG GUILD HAHAHA

Reply Posted by BIGTOOF on 2005-08-17 17:25:02 whell i just hit 60 and im in a guild <Hand of the Forsaken> basically the largest Horde guild on feather moon an it has 60+ 60s in it so im verry pleased with the guild cuz they go 2 MC an onyxias lair every friday or so but iv never bin their my self i caint wait to start myEarth Fury set!!! :D

Cause we dont know, would be great if someone knew it.



Thx in advance :) Sounds kool

Reply Posted by Avoksh on 2005-08-27 19:01:19 sounds like a kool innstance cant wait to go in there.

Happy hunting:) RE: Domo comment

Reply Posted by Wickedblade on 2005-08-28 04:00:42 First of, MC is easy as hell.

4 Weeks of MC and were at domo already, clearing other bosses reliably first try (Occasionally shaz will be a pain and take 2 tries) but the rest are cake.

Domo will stay friendly and stay there untill the instance resets, so you dont have to kill him again. (However it would be nice to get new domo chest loot every time :P) Molten Core

Reply Posted by Eagle_runetotem on 2005-08-28 16:47:31 OK Im 60 and my guild has statet doing really many MC runs... Think we will get our first try on ragnaros within a week or something, should be possibly... To the guy that doesn't think palis need any skills. You Really should try to just shut up, pallis come in very usefull with cleanse/heal ressing while others are in combat... Don't do much damage on most of the bosses, but they really aren't supossed too. Our gear gives +heal, and they do that because we have to heal down there. You have to know a caracter before you make stupid comments like that. Won't say any classes at all sucks in MC they all have to play their roll perfect if you want succes down there... and to the guys that keeps getting wiped on magmadar (been there, tried that) If you don't have a dwarf priest he is definately hard until you get the hang of when you have to get away from his fear. The tank is the keyplayer if he can keep him at his spot and the healers on max range of him, you will eventually get him down...



MC is great fun Really nice drops, so keep up farming :) Molten Core
