I wonder why there's no loot table here yet. Even Anub'Rekhan from Naxxramas has a loot table.

Kommentar von Odinn

Ragnaros is the final boss in Molten Core, the original 40-man dungeon crawl-style raid instance. He drops all of the "Tier 2" armor set leggings, as well as several other highly-sought items.

There is some disagreement about the approach to this boss, largely brought about by discrepancies in gear, but, generally speaking, you will need a well-balanced, fairly well-geared raid group, and they will need a respectable amount of Fire resistance.

Kommentar von 3118

In my experience, precision Sons of Flame control yields a kill. Make sure everyone understands the strategy for that.

The sons are basic level 60 elites. Immune to fire but nothing else. Slowing, freezing, fear, horror, silence, and taunt effects all work. Hunter ice traps, frost nova, and challenging shout are all key to any Son control.

Kommentar von 7049

The Molten Core lies at the very bottom of Blackrock Depths. It is the heart of Blackrock Mountain and the exact spot where, long ago in a desperate bid to turn the tide of the dwarven civil war, Emperor Thaurissan summoned the elemental Firelord, Ragnaros, into the world. Though the fire lord is incapable of straying far from the blazing Core, it is believed that his elemental minions command the Dark Iron dwarves, who are in the midst of creating armies out of living stone. The burning lake where Ragnaros lies sleeping acts as a rift connecting to the plane of fire, allowing the malicious elementals to pass through. Chief among Ragnaros' agents is Majordomo Executus - for this cunning elemental is the only one capable of calling the Firelord from his slumber.

Ragnaros is the Final Boss in Molten Core, below is a website that is very helpful at explaining the difficult fight: http://pacifistguild.org/ragnaros/

Kommentar von 7121

His loot table consists of..

All class Tier 2 Leggings (Transcedance/priest, Bloodfang/rogue, ten storms/shammy, netherwind/mage, nemesis/warlock, wrath/warrior, stormrage/druid, dragonstalker/hunter, judgement/paladin)...

and other goodies..

Not a hard boss to kill really.. for beginning guilds, tank should have 315 fire resistance, but its a tank and spank fight.

Kommentar von StoneLegion

Melee Players should have Min 200 FR and range should have 100-150 FR. I do say min as doing it well but you could have less and still take him down.

Kommentar von 8198

As a hunter, it is actually best if you wear as much DPS gear as possible. FR gear is hardly needed as hunters take the fewest AoE fire balls and also have (for the most part) the most HP of the ranged damage dealing classes. Well, except for warlocks. Anyway, if you can push the DPS charts you will be much more useful in Rag attempts/kills and let the other classes worry about surviving. We have feign death.

Kommentar von 7991

It's very important (especially for newer guilds) to dps as much as possible.
Assigned healers need to keep the dps alive at all costs, and all ranged dps should begin their attacks from very start of the fight and never let up, as range cannot gain aggro with a melee target within Rag's reach.
The sons do drain mana, so if you're a class that can kite the sons, do it. Priests fear, mages blink, etc.
A good goal is to have Rag at 30% before he submerges for the first time.

Kommentar von 8952

Rag can be a very tough fight if your strat consists of certain elements. Chances are if you are a beginning guild you will die a few times.

Our strategy has been to have a challenging shout rotation for all the warriors with FR when the sons come up, and watch for the knockback, other than that its a piece of cake.

Kommentar von 8403

With the release of the 2.0 patch, I believe Rag has become much easier. Not that he was nerfed, but that the classes were over all largely improved. In personal experience with my own guild, just last weekend we were only able to get Rag to about 40% before we wiped. That was the best we could do at the time. Only one week later, nearly all the same gear, but brand new talents, we managed to get him to 10% before the sons were even summoned, the sons were killed within one minute, and Rag fell as though he were no more difficult than Golemagg. These new talents are definitely a help, so if your guild hasn't attempted Rag since the patch, and you've been trying to kill him for weeks, I suggest you give it a go ASAP. You may be surprised at the difference and improvement. =D

Kommentar von 9631

We used to use the aoe taunt tactic when the sons came in for the warriors to control the sons and then aoe them. But indeed since the 2.0 patch we don't need it. He just goes down before sons....

Kommentar von Chaosangel

Ragnaros is the first real "gear check" in endgame raiding (except maybe Bloodlord Mandokir and having tank with a lot of defense). Downing him is a significant achievement for any guild mostly because it shows that they are willing and able to farm for fire resist gear and greater fire protection potions en masse.

Kommentar von 7293

Yes, he is the 1st target to really bring down in a raiding guild, requiring collective effort and perseverance. One could say that Raggy makes or breaks raiding guilds. He provides training for the basic skills to face BWL and AQ40, and further down the line Naxxramas.

Kommentar von 17843

The Lords of Vengence, Damage Inc. , and another guild downed Rag on Blade's Edge. What sucked was this it dropped TWO I repeat TWO Leggings of the Ten Storms, I mean, after all that, it drops Shammy gear! WHY!?

That is all, we spanked him with only five people dying because they ran into the lava like idiots. -.-

Kommentar von 51712

Has anyone tried raggy since TBC came out? like with a lvl 70 group? I'm just curious, because i wanna try taking my guild through for fun one day, and i'd like to know how many people we';d need

Kommentar von 57379

Why is he listed as having 5000 health? I'm fairly certain he has 1 or 1.1 million

Kommentar von 63149

agree pongo

Kommentar von 60466

We killed him few weeks ago with 13 man. 2 tanks, 3 healers and 8 DPS. Took him down after 1st wave of the little firebastards. Went smoooth

Kommentar von 60860

Also drops the rare Eye of Sulfuras, a key part in creating Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros. Drop rate seems to around 1-3%.
Had 1 drop in about 30 kills.

Kommentar von 83140

Just so you know but i do believe you buy this water from the hydraxxian waterlords so you put out his flame to help you fight him.
No bad rating on this plz im just stating what i think.

Kommentar von 83140

And he has 6 or 12 minutes to saty above lava before he submerges permanently (or untill the instance resets) so try not to let him spawn sons a 2nd time he will go down for good.

Kommentar von 98388

I may never get to experience this guy, so this joke has gone over my head many times.
What's the deal with telling people you can look through a window to see him? what happens when you do that?

Kommentar von 68112

Good'ol Ragnaros, takes me way back to the "Loot the damn dog" and the "lol somone pulled Golemag" days. My Favorite Boss along with Nefarian in BWL. :D

Kommentar von 34511

Ragnaros is the first true epic fight old players had to deal with. While going throught the whole Molten Core dungeon was challenging for many of us and is piece of cake now... Ragnaros still has this little something that makes him different.

We were young and naive, and this fight truely felt epic as we had to have 40 players playing 110% to kill him. The pride of downing him for the first time is something you keep in mind for a long time !

I don't feel like burning crusade could match this fight (as well as several others from the old word). Most likely because we have grown and don't look at the game the same way, but also because now we are running 25 mans raids.

Easier to play, but less fun in the end I think.

Anyway if you have never been in Molten Core, gather up 10-15 people and go ahead ;) You will be surprised that you can still wipe there despite the instance being tuned for level 60 blue geared players ;)

Kommentar von 74389

10 of us went Rag last week and we downed him in 1 minute and 45 secs. So he didnt Submerge or anything.

My favorite pre-bc raid and boss.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The Ragnaros in MC is an avatar sorta, Majordamos says it all before rag is summoned. Basically says Ragnaros is but a true shadow of his true self, However he has more than enough strength to be your end.

Kommentar von Thottbot

RAGNAROS DOES NOT ACTUALLY DROP THE HAMMER, HE DROPS THE EYE OF SULFURAS WHICH HELPS YOU TO GET THE HAMMER.............damn people read up on that before saying OMG IM ROLLING ON THIS HAMMER!

Kommentar von Thottbot

How much fire rez should each person need ..MT etc ?

Kommentar von Thottbot

What gear you would need depends entirely on what your class is, of course.
But basically, to kill Ragnaros, the best thing is to keep farming the bosses before him. Each of them drops class specific gear with good fire resistance.
Once your raid group has a good selection of gear from the previous bosses, you will have a much easier time with Rag.
But until you get the dropped gear from MC, anything with good FR, attack power, critical pluses and high armor class.
If you are a mail wearer like me (hunter), the Black Dragonscale stuff is good. You give up agility but the added attack power and fire protection make up for it. And you can have agility enchants added.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Oh man that was awesome to watch XD
I have never seen a boss, let alone Rag go down so fast before and to take Rag out before any sons even spawn? NICE!

Kommentar von Thottbot

A MT with ~300 FR can tank this fight easily and resist 95% of the knockbacks. Melee should ahev around 150-200 FR, ranged needs about 100-150 FR as well as the healers. Just make sure to have an assist on the sons and they will go down veeeery quickly.

So..FR + Rogues = Loot

Yes since Burning Crusades nobody has even considered running MC or AQ except if some ppl are bored and want an easy dungeon to do. My question to Blizz is why do you make all of the Burning Crusade bosses out of weak characters from warcraft history. I mean....Ragnaros is the soul master of all fire elementals and shaped the world with his own two fists. Illidan Stormrage is just some night elf dude who betrayed his people.

Pally Fire Resists do not stack, and only function for the group they are currently in. I seriously doubt you can banish Ragnaros... That comment is nearly the equivalent of a hunter asking if they can tame Onyxia.

Just in case you are wondering, or some what care about the story of Warcraft there is a level 62 elite spirit you can talk to in Crystal Vale, in Silithus. He will explain that Ragnaros had backstabbed a god, and made an attempt to consume his essence immediately. He got most of it but some was left over, so Ragnaros and split it in two and gave it to two of his lieutennants, garr and golemagg or something, as pendants. So I guess thats why he's so insane, he's kind of a demigod

The drops on this badboy are rather depressing. Let's murder all of MC to get some stuff slightly better than dropped by Azuregos, Lord Kazzak and Onyxia. Sure the legs to all the high-end sets, but I really hope blizzard prevents the sad drop of improper legs i.e. Shaman legs dropping in an alliance run or paladin legs for a horde run. The weapons dropped.... what's a few DPS for hours of killing just to get to this effer. Like I have said many times before: Blizzard can S my N's.

No one have killed Ragnaros as of written of this post, period.

besides, he dont hit for like "700-1500",he hits MT for 2000+ and occasional fireball DPS class or healer for 5000+, he also summon 8 lv60elite fire spawns, and that's only his first stage. Just like Onyxia, Ragnaros must have multiple stages.

Nobody has killed Ragnaros yet. A few guilds have tried, but they all ended up like this.

Molten Core easily takes a few nights to clear EVEN IF YOU HAVE DONE IT BEFORE. And it takes 35-40 People to do it (definitely 40 for the latter bosses and areas). It's a ton of fun being in there and plugging away at the place, but I wouldn't expect Rangaros to be down anytime soon... at least until everyone's farmed Onyxia and MC for awhile longer.(##RESPBREAK##)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

We actually got to him last night after several hours of whiping. However, we survived like 10 minutes against this monster. he totally rocks.

fun getting there though =)

Edited, Wed Apr 6 02:57:57 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Sorry for the long post, but these are my collective thoughts on Ragnaros so far...

It will take much farming of Onyxia and the rest of MC to have a chance at beating him. However, if you all remember, there was once a time that Onyxia was thought to be similarly invincible. She was downed, and Ragnaros too will eventually be killed. I have seen the wipe videos of Ragnaros, and I think that with the formulation of effective strategies, Ragnaros will be defeated. From what I have seen, people have trouble with the part when he splits into 8(?) fire elementals, though I believe the number is convenient because with a raid group of 40, there can be 8 highly regimented groups of 5 that might be able to handle them individually.

I think it is painfully obvious that his loot table will include tier 2 epic set items, tier 1 epic set BPs, and probably some ridiculous epic weapons & armor. I highly doubt he will drop anything legendary or artifact, though he might have a legendary drop with a rate similar to, say, the Runeblade of Baron Rivendare. Naturally, though, it will take many kills to find this out.

At any rate, once Ragnaros is beaten, I believe that Blizzard will keep us interested by introducing raid bosses even harder than Ragnaros and compensate for the difficulty by increasing the cap on how far we can level characters. In turn, Ragnaros will become easier and the new ones will replace him as the near-impossible-to-kill mobs.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

doesn´t he drop the weapon he uses?
i readed in a magazine a player who had a very nice hammer that looks exactly like Ragnaros weapon, just wondering where players can find it.

--and BTW, it is not the same as trying to tame onyxia. Its a completely different kind of spell and question.--

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Killed by Alliance random raid at Ravencrest this night at our secound try

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have searched and I cant still find him

Kommentar von Allakhazam

After they nerfed Rag from his orginal "un-killable" status he really wasn't very hard at all. By the time AQ was coming out and BWL was on farm status he was being tanked with 2 handers and killed before he could spawn his sons. I suppose when MC was the only raid instance he was quite exciting, thought.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

We got him, I got the last eviscerate off before I died. I was the last one alive rofl, he had like 10hp left and i had literaly 1, and was about to die and i jsut pressed 4, he died and so did i. I have ONE Screenshot, How can i post it? also, we couldnt get his drops because everyone spawned back, friggin queer, we didnt wanna have to go through all that crap again

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Two possible strategies i was wondering about:

--Since Ragnaros is an elemental couldnt he be banished by a warlock? Then the raid could heal up OR even take care of those pesky elementals he summons. Would this work?
--Second wut if you had like ten-twelve pallies all with fire resist aura on? If this works it would add up to like 600 fire resistance to everone in group? That would ROCK.

Keep in mind that these are just theories. Dont slam me because im wrong. Just pondering. :)

Ragnaros has been killed twice by my mother.

Ironically he didnt drop anything else but a potion of frost resistance? O_o

Kommentar von Allakhazam

the guild Risen on our server killed him a few days ago on alleria

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Hay guyz I just soloed ragnaros he dropped 2x wool cloth

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't like this dude. he drops no descent mage gear and my guild can't take him yet. tonite we got him to 64% and didn't pass first wave of SoF. Only good is the big amounts of DKP I get from trying ^^ gets me closer to getting azuresong mageblade :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Never seen a Rags kill? Here's footage. Its really not too bad, just emphasize on FR gear for your melee and healer classes. Everyone else stand back and DPS with all you got. Make sure you've got him below 50% health before the first dip in the fire, or just wipe and try again.

Sons - just mages cycle frost nova and aoe. Make it quick and keep your mana classes far from them.

Next phase - NUKE.

You'd assume correct that no one has killed him.

The problem with ragnaros is that a) It takes clearing an entire HARD instance to get to him. And then theres b) he's harder, but a significant step from what I understand, than onyxia.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Of course you can't banish him... where would you banish him to? Yup- right here in the Molten COre.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tyranny on the server Buring Legion so far has him down to 67% health as of RIGHT NOW... so ill update later

UPDATE: They got him down to 60% and were wiped :(

i am looking forward for the buffpatch. ragnaros is really too easy, he shouldnt be that farmable at all :/

Kommentar von Allakhazam

.. the whole kill was kinda weird - we had agreed to do a trial run first to get people used to the encounter & then head to UC and pick up the Wickerman buff and pop the major potions. All of the sudden, he was at 43% with noone dead yet & people only having popped the greater fire pots & some smaller mana pots - and then the sons went down with only 1 dead (he lagged into the lava) and then Ragnaros himself went down with about 20 odd secounds to spare. Of course, our MT died midair from the only knockback he suffered in the whole fight :D

Perdition's Blade, Wrath legs, Dragonstalker legs & Cloak of Shrouded Mist was the loot to be had.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

My Priest Just soloed hem yesterday... He was getting insane, cause i was healing myself al the time... so he commited suicide. Nice Drops. Next stop. Whole Ogrimmar.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

tame onyxia

That would be so awesome, but you would have to be a pretty special Hunter for an entire guild/Raid* to give up Onxyia's loot just so you could have a really cool looking pet... But yeah, Hunters wish.

ALSO ->

Ragnaros had backstabbed a god

Just to clearify, Backstab isnt the best word to use, since some people (ie. me) thought you ment the rogue skill and that Ragnaros was using a dagger to do +150% damage... lol... Betrayed, i think works nicely... No offense, im just being a little Roleplaying silly

And he didnt attack a God, he attacked "Thunderaan" the Son of the Wind Elemental lieutenant "Al'Akir the Windlord" and after he 'consumed' (w/e that means in elemental terms, guess it just means he absorbed the other elements powers w/e) Thunderaan's essence, what was left was stored in a talisman of elemental binding, that was then broken in half, and given to Baron Geddon and Garr.

You will need to unlock MC I believe to use the teleporter by completing all of BRD to the end which is where the raid entrance is. Otherwise there are ways to reach the raid entrance by skipping over lava beds, but I digress.

This raid is easily soloable, however the last three bosses must be done in this order. So do Magmadar and Lucifron in their cavern, return to main cave and circle around doing each boss.

Skip Ragnaros until last as it is the final boss encounter. You will need to do Golemagg, then Majordomo Executus (don't forget to loot chest) next, and then run back to Ragnaros (in that order).

There is lots of Dark Iron Ore if you are a miner. Mostly classic items but nice mogs and also a pet drop if you are so lucky. Good luck to you and please upvote so others that are soloing old content can partake of the knowledge.

In order to get Sulfuras, Hand von Ragnaros, you need to get Auge von Sulfuras, from Ragnaros in Geschmolzener Kern. simply combine it with a Sulfuronhammer in your bags...

Learning the PatternPläne: Sulfuronhammer

have 1 Sulfuronblock in your bags, then talk with Lokhtos Düsterfeilsch in the back of the top part of the bar in Schwarzfelstiefen
he will give you Ein verbindlicher Vertrag but only if you have a Sulfuronblock in your bags.

Crafting the Sulfuronhammer
This Hammer can only be crafted inside Schwarzfelstiefen on The Black Anvil where the boss Lord Incendius resides. remember to bring your Schmiedehammer....

Gather a ridicolus amount of materials...

50 Arkanitbarren
20 Dunkeleisenbarren
25 Essenz des Feuers
10 Blut des Berges
10 Feuerkern
10 Lavakern
8 Sulfuronblock (+1 if you need to learn the Pläne: Sulfuronhammer yourself)

After this you simply right click Auge von Sulfuras in your inventory with Sulfuronhammer in your bags and it will create Sulfuras, Hand von Ragnaros

Ragnaros
