1 This quest requires Wildheart Cowl from Scholomance and
Wildheart Vest from Upper Blackrock Spire to complete.
2 This quest requires Wildheart Bracers to complete. Additionally, you need 15
Silithus Venom Sample from Stonelash Flayer and Rock Stalker in the southern half of Silithus as
Horde player or 15
Winterspring Blood Sample from Frostsabers like Frostsaber Cub and Frostsaber Stalker in the northern corner of Winterspring as an
Alliance player.
3 You get Thick Corehound Belt by turning in
Corehound Belt, 25
Firelands Ember, and 2
Lava Core at Lokhtos Darkbargainer in Blackrock Depths.
Corehound Belt is crafted with Leatherworking and requires materials from Molten Core.
Fire Resistance for Heat Level 2 and Heat Level 3
To raid the more difficult heat levels in Molten Core you need to hit Fire Resistance thresholds. For Heat Level 2 you need at least 96 Fire Resistance and for Heat Level 3 you need at least 226 Fire Resistance. To increase your Fire Resistance you can equip gear, utilize enchantments, use consumables, and get buffs from your Druids,
Shamans 1, and
Paladins 1.
Use the following sources to increase your Fire Resistance to the required threshold:
Mark of the Wild (up to 27 Fire Resistance if improved, does not stack with
Fire Resistance Totem)
Lesser Arcanum of Resilience (Head & Legs Enchants,
Libram of Resilience)
Blessed Flame Mantle of the Dawn (Argent Dawn – Exalted),
Flame Mantle of the Dawn (Argent Dawn – Revered)
Hydraxian Coronation (Hydraxian Waterlords – Honored)
Juju Ember (
Shardtooth E'ko at 61.8 38.2 in Winterspring)
Magic Resistance Potion (does not stack with
Mark of the Wild or
Fire Resistance Totem)
Tribal War Feathers of Fire Resistance (Upper Blackrock Spire)
Fireproof Cloak (Molten Core)
Salamander Scale Pants (Molten Core)
Hyperthermically Insulated Lava Dredger (Molten Core)
Miniaturized Fire Extinguisher (Demon Fall Canyon)
Tidal Loop (
A Hero's Reward)
Water Treads (Hydraxian Waterlords – Honored)
Dragonslayer's Signet (
Head of Onyxia)
Miniaturized Combustion Chamber (Gnomeregan)
Drakefire Amulet (Blackrock Spire)
Wildfire Cape (Upper Blackrock Spire)
Using Fire Resistance items often results in a DPS loss in comparison to your BiS list. After you’ve acquired new raid items recalculate your Fire Resistance and re-optimize your gear loadout.
🔥 Since the boss Garr from Molten Core can dispel magic effects, you should make sure your Druid is hitting the Fire Resistance threshold without
Mark of the Wild for that specific fight. This might require you to have some off-pieces for that boss fight.
1 For most guilds, it is not recommended to rely on Shaman totems or
Paladin auras to hit the minimum Fire Resistance thresholds. If the aura or totem is out of range or the player dies, you will lack Fire Resistance. Use the totems or auras as additional mitigation, but calculate your Fire Resistance without them.
