Exploring Draenor: Felspark

by - 9 years ago

Exploring Draenor delves into the hidden places of the world that will one day become Outland. From the volcanic landscape of Frostfire to the gloomy dells of Shadowmoon, these articles are your guide to events that are off the beaten path.

Location: Throne of Kil’jaeden

Rewards: Fel Singed Wraps

The Throne of Kil’jaeden is a dangerous area, crawling with closely-packed elite demons and orcs. While a lone DPS player can usually tackle most of the one-, two- or sometimes three-mob pulls, anything more will require a group. However, the Throne also contains more deadly enemies: namely, the rare spawns that patrol the peak.

While most of the rares in the Throne of Kil’jaeden are demons, Felspark is an exception: a fel-green elemental, which has made the pools of fel sludge around the mountain its home. It is not an unreasonable assumption to believe that Felspark used to be just another fire elemental – before the machinations of Gul’dan shattered Tanaan Jungle into its present state, corrupting the region and twisting the bond that the elementals have with the land.

Felspark has many similarities with Cindral. Both are fire elementals living in or near the Throne of Kil’jaeden, and both have a similar ability set. Like Cindral, Felspark will attack with Lava Splash and Flame Blossom, although the Remnant of Cindral adds are, of course, missing from this encounter. Fighting Felspark is dangerous enough without additional creatures! As you might imagine, the demon-worshipping orcs around the Throne don’t take too kindly to you touching their stuff, and will attack you on sight. There are several groups of them around the pool that Felspark calls home – including some channelling fel energy into it – and it is best to kill them before tackling the elemental.

Trivia time: Felspark’s name is a call-back to the days of The Burning Crusade. One of the earliest quests in the expansion had players killing demons in a place called Felspark Ravine – just south of the Throne of Kil’jaeden, roughly equivalent to the locations of Vol’mar and Lion’s Watch today. In Wrath of the Lich King, the eredar Lord Jarraxus dropped the Felspark Bindings and Felspark Bracers.
