The drop rate of this pet is 0.1% (one in every thousand kills)<sup>[http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=3271178754&pageNo=1&sid=1#3]</sup> and takes an incredible amount of patience and determination in order to get one. Due to the difficulty of obtaining one, and thus their rarity, they can sell for fairly large amounts of gold on the [[Auction House]], at least as far as pets are concerned. The table below shows the cumulative probability of getting at least one after a number of kills.

Revision as of 02:52, 21 May 2011


The Firelands Invasion is a charge led by Malfurion Stormrage and the Guardians of Hyjal to take the attack to Ragnaros in the Firelands. A new currency, Inv misc markoftheworldtree [Mark of the World Tree], is introduced. Marks are rewarded from completing daily quests and can be used to unlock new areas of the Molten Front and high-level items.

Defending the World Tree

Main article: Mount Hyjal quests

Before adventurers can take the fight to Ragnaros, they must contend with his forces attacking Mount Hyjal. Both Ragnaros' forces and those of the Twilight's Hammer seek to burn Nordrassil, the world tree. It is up to adventurers to push the foot soldiers back and interact with five Ancients: Goldrinn, Aviana, Aessina, Tortolla and Cenarius, and rescue the legendary commander Jarod Shadowsong. Once these five Ancients are back in the fight, Malfurion, Hamuul Runetotem and Cenarius lead a charge against Ragnaros in Sulfuron Spire, driving him back to the Firelands.

Opening the portal

Once Mount Hyjal is reasonably secure (at least after players have completed Quest:Aessina's Miracle), forces start gathering at the Sanctuary of Malorne in southern Hyjal. There, Malfurion attempts to open a portal to the Firelands. That attempt does not go well. The fight escalates to the point that Malorne is resurrected to help with the defense.

It will take three days to recover enough to attempt to open the portal again. Adventurers are tasked with earning Inv misc markoftheworldtree [Mark of the World Tree] x20 in order to continue. Eight are earned in one-time quests, and four can be earned each day in dailies.
