The '''Hydraxian Waterlords''' are [[elementals]] that have made their home on the islands east of [[Azshara]]. They are sworn enemies of the armies of [[Ragnaros]]. Historically servants of the Old Gods, the four Elemental Lords served the gods with undying loyalty. The minions of [[Neptulon]] the Tidehunter were numerous and mindless. It is not yet known how [[Duke Hydraxis]] broke free of his lord's control (if indeed he has), or what his ultimate goals are, but the Water elementals are the only elementals that do not attack the mortal races with abandonment.
  +
  +
Located on a remote island in the far east of Azshara, [[Duke Hydraxis]] offers some quests. The first two require killing various elementals in [[Eastern Plaguelands]] and [[Silithus]]. Increased faction with the Waterlords opens up additional quests leading into the [[Molten Core]]. Any items obtained from the Hydraxian Waterlords, are obtained from its various quests.
   
  +
Prior to [[patch 3.0.8]], Duke Hydraxis offered the questline to obtain [[Aqual Quintessence]] used to douse the runes found near most bosses in Molten Core. This was required to summon [[Majordomo Executus]], the penultimate boss, and, after his defeat, to summon [[Ragnaros]] himself. Since there were seven runes, any raid needed at least seven players to bring a Quintessence if they wished to finish the instance. However, after the patch, Executus automatically spawns once the other bosses have been defeated.

The Hydraxian Waterlords are elementals that have made their home on the islands east of Azshara. They are sworn enemies of the armies of Ragnaros. Historically servants of the Old Gods, the four Elemental Lords served the gods with undying loyalty. The minions of Neptulon the Tidehunter were numerous and mindless. It is not yet known how Duke Hydraxis broke free of his lord's control (if indeed he has), or what his ultimate goals are, but the Water elementals are the only elementals that do not attack the mortal races with abandonment.

Located on a remote island in the far east of Azshara, Duke Hydraxis offers some quests. The first two require killing various elementals in Eastern Plaguelands and Silithus. Increased faction with the Waterlords opens up additional quests leading into the Molten Core. Any items obtained from the Hydraxian Waterlords, are obtained from its various quests.

Prior to patch 3.0.8, Duke Hydraxis offered the questline to obtain Inv potion 76 [Aqual Quintessence] used to douse the runes found near most bosses in Molten Core. This was required to summon Majordomo Executus, the penultimate boss, and, after his defeat, to summon Ragnaros himself. Since there were seven runes, any raid needed at least seven players to bring a Quintessence if they wished to finish the instance. However, after the patch, Executus automatically spawns once the other bosses have been defeated.

Duke Hydraxis could once be found at the coordinates [79, 73]VZ-AzsharaBlip in Azshara. Despite his removal from the game, the Hydraxian Waterlords still exist as a reputation faction.

Reputation

All of the bosses in MC reward reputation until Exalted. However, it takes only a few MC runs to get to Honored. So if you are in a MC capable guild don't bother with Silithus (you do however have to do all the quests to get your ring).
