Objectives Edit

Use the Drums of the Turtle God to help you defeat King Moltron.

•  King Moltron slain

Provided item:  [Drums of the Turtle God]

Description Edit

The magma giants who serve Ragnaros are kept in line by their king's heavy-handed rule. Were we to take care of him, the rest will surely fall into disarray.

Without the giants, the fight on the ground will get a lot more even. Perhaps even tilt to our favor.

But felling the magma monarch will be no easy task.

Use these drums to elist the help of the great Tortolla who is capable of holding off King Moltron for an eternity. But holding him off won't be enough -- and that's where you come in.

Rewards Edit

You will receive: 16 40

Progress Edit

Yes, <name>?

Completion Edit

Excellent work, <name>. We shall soon claim victory in Hyjal.

It has been an honor to fight along your side.

Notes Edit

Moltron is behind Sulfuron Spire at ^{[43.5, 83.6]}

on the Throne of Flame. Moltron is an 82 elite molten giant with 446,000 health and the following abilities:

• [Flame Stomp]—Deals 115 to 116 Fire damage to nearby enemies, knocking them back. 1.5 sec cast. Hits for what the tooltip says it does.
• [Melee]—4100-5800 Physical on Tortolla.

Find a safe spot to land relatively near him, then use the drums to call Tortolla. Tortolla has over a million health and the following abilities:

• [Crushing Bite] Melee range—Snaps at the target, causing 206% weapon damage and reducing the target's armor by 50% for 10 sec. 1 sec cast. Hits for 10,000-14,000 Physical.
• [Headbutt] 10 yd range—Inflicts normal damage plus 3090 to nearby enemies and knocks them back. Instant. Hits for 9000-11,200 Physical
• [Melee]—5200-7300 Physical on Moltron.

Let Tortolla start the fight, then join in. He does a good job of tanking, so let him absorb the hits and don't pull aggro off him.
