||
| − | === Abilities of the red drake === |
||
| − | On the drake you'll get six different abilities: |
||
| − | * '''Flame Spike''' (10 Energy, Instant) - Fires a quick jet of fire at your target, causing 943 to 1057 Fire damage. Awards 1 combo point. |
||
| − | * '''Engulf in Flames''' (50 Energy, Instant) - Launches a blast of flames, igniting your target for 1500 Fire damage (per stack) every 3 sec. This effect stacks without limit. Lasts longer per combo point: |
||
| − | :1 point : 6 seconds |
||
| − | :2 points: 10 seconds |
||
| − | :3 points: 14 seconds |
||
| − | :4 points: 18 seconds |
||
| − | :5 points: 22 seconds |
||
| − | * '''Revivify''' (10 Energy, Instant) - Heals the target for 500 per second, stacking up to 5 times. Must be cast on a drake, not a player. Lasts 10 sec. Awards one combo point. |
||
| − | * '''Life Burst''' (50 Energy, Instant) - Releases a burst of rejuvinating energy, healing friendly targets within 60 yards and increasing the caster's healing done by 50%. Heals for more and lasts longer per combo point: |
||
| − | :1 point : 5,000 heal / 5 sec |
||
| − | :2 points: 7,500 heal / 10 sec |
||
| − | :3 points: 10,000 heal / 15 sec |
||
| − | :4 points: 12,500 heal / 20 sec |
||
| − | :5 points: 15,000 heal / 25 sec |
||
| − | * '''Blazing Speed''' (Instant) - Increases flight speed by 500% for 8 sec. |
||
| − | * '''Flame Shield''' (25 Energy, Instant, 30 sec cooldown) - Surrounds the caster in a shield of flames, reducing all damage taken by 80%. Lasts longer per combo point: |
||
| − | :1 point : 2 seconds |
||
| − | :2 points: 3 seconds |
||
| − | :3 points: 4 seconds |
||
| − | :4 points: 5 seconds |
||
| − | :5 points: 6 seconds |
||
| − | |||
| − | You can only have combo points on a single target. For example, casting '''Revivify''' places a combo point on your heal target, and so <i>removes all combo points</i> from your enemy target. Casting '''Revivify''' or '''Engulf in Flames''' refreshes the duration of your stack already on the target. |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Tactical notes === |
||
| − | This quest WILL be a pain to those who are doing it for the first time. Here are some tips to avoid unnecessary keyboard destruction: |
||
| − | |||
| − | *Make sure to enable the interface options Auto Self Cast and Cast Bars (under Combat). |
||
| − | *Start by stacking Revivify on your drake five times (before engaging in combat). Optionally, also cast Lifeburst on yourself to make use of the combo points available. |
||
| − | *Begin the pull with two Flame Spikes, then Engulf in Flames. |
||
| − | *Recast Revivify on your drake; this keeps the HoT stack at 5 and refreshes its duration. |
||
| − | *Recast two Flame Spikes, then Engulf in Flames; this increases DoT stack and refreshes its duration. |
||
| − | *Repeat the rotation until the drake is dead (keys <b>1 1 2 3</b>). |
||
| − | *In any moment, if the blue drake starts casting Arcane Surge, you have plenty of time to use Flame Spike (if you don't have combo points) then Flame Shield. Arcane Surge deals a lot of damage, and you can't heal through it without a shield up. You only need two (one, if well timed) combo points to make the shield last through the whole Surge. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Because the Arcane Surge can come up at any moment, you MUST always watch the enemy's cast bar, else you get a nasty surprise. If you're lucky, you may not even see Surge at all. Good luck! |
||
| − | |||
| − | This rotation focuses on stacking the DoTs from Engulf in Flames; once there are two stacks, it deals more damage (per energy) than Flame Spike. The combo points from Flame Spike only increase the duration of Engulf in Flames, not the damage dealt, so there's no point stacking more than two (giving you 10 seconds to rebuild the 80 energy needed for each cycle). |
||
| − | |||
| − | After you've stacked Engulf in Flames a few times, expand the cycle to using three Flame Spikes, to allow more time for energy regeneration. At that point, most of the damage is being done by the stacked Engulf in Flames, and energy may be running low. |

||
| − | {{:Quest:Corastrasza}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Quest Tips == |
||
| − | :If your red drake dies while riding him/her you'll automatically get a parachute, like getting dismounted in Dalaran or Wintergrasp. |
||
| − | :If you die on a platform you'll not come back as a ghost but alive at the graveyard. |
||
| − | :To avoid a long and slow fall to the bottom if your drake dies, try staying directly above a platform while fighting. That way you don't have far to fall. |
||
| − | :Stack your HoT five times prior to engaging in combat. Then cast 1 x 5 then alternate 2(DoT) and 3(HoT) but always keep your HoT stacked five times. |
||
| − | :The blue drakes have overlapping patrol routes. Be careful to only agro one enemy drake at a time. |
||

| − | == Trivia == |
||
| − | The title of the quest comes from the popular Iron Maiden song of the same name on their 1984 album Powerslave. |
