Heart of Flame (quest)

Empower the Runestaff of Nordrassil with 250 Soul Flame Essences / Smouldering Essences and obtain the Heart of Flame.

• Smouldering Essences Collected (250)
• Heart of Flame

You are the first mortal to witness a dragon council,, and among the only beings in Azeroth to take part in the choosing of an Aspect.

My ascension has endowed me with incredible power. I have taken the liberty to strengthen Tarecgosa's bond with you, though she will require a more... permanent home.

I would have you venture one last time into the Plane of Fire and bring me the heart of Ragnaros.

When next we meet, I will be able to suitably thank you for all that you have done.

You will receive:

A fine day for a ceremony. Don't you think, ?

You have done well,.

Now prepare to receive a hero's reward.

Smouldering Essence can be obtained by using the Runestaff of Nordrassil targeting the corpse of a Firelands boss. This can be only obtained when the player is on this quest. All bosses except Ragnaros will provide the following number of essences:

• 10 normal: 3-5 (full clear average: 24)
• 10 heroic: 7-8 (full clear average: 45)
• 25 normal: 7-8 (full clear average: 45)
• 25 heroic: 9-11 (full clear average: 60)

A Heart of Flame object appears where Ragnaros spawns once he is defeated, but only after the player has fulfilled the essence requirement.
