'''Firelands''' is a raid instance, released with [[Patch 4.2.0]] on June 28, 2011. It can be entered through [[Sulfuron Spire]] in [[Mount Hyjal]]. It is a domain of [[Ragnaros the Firelord]], from where he endlessly sends his elemental and mortal minions in order to fulfill his ultimate goal of destroying [[Nordrassil]].
−
'''Nerubian viziers''' are creatures that can be encountered in the [[World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King|WotLK expansion.]]
 
   
  +
The raid consists of 8 bosses (one only accessible through the legendary quest chain), as well as outdoor and indoor environments. It is intended to be one grade in difficulty above raids implemented at release of [[Cataclysm]], just as [[Ulduar (instance)|Ulduar]] was in [[Wrath of the Lich King]].

==Description from site==
−
:''The half-[[spider]], half-[[humanoid]] viziers once served as advisors, [[sorcerer]]s, and [[seer]]s to the mighty [[nerubian]] [[spiderlord]]s. But in the aftermath of the [[War of the Spider]], the tables turned, and in the vacuum of their collapsed society, the cunning viziers rose to power. Utilizing their sorcery and high intelligence, the viziers have emerged as the rulers of the [[Nerubian]]s' underground kingdom.''
 
  +
''For ages, the [[Elemental]] Plane served its purpose as a secure realm to imprison [[Azeroth]]'s primordial spirits... until the [[Cataclysm]] ruptured its boundaries. Without warning, [[Ragnaros]]'s armies surged toward [[Mount Hyjal]], intent on burning the [[World Tree]] of [[Nordrassil]] to the ground. In the ensuing conflict, many brave heroes gave their lives to protect Hyjal from destruction. By their noble sacrifices, the impossible was achieved: the [[Guardians of Hyjal]] pushed Ragnaros's minions back into the [[Firelands]].''
   
  +
''Now, the battle to protect Hyjal rages in Ragnaros's smoldering realm. As territory is gained and Azeroth's champions edge closer to the Firelands' inner sanctums, a monumental task lies ahead. Entrenched around Ragnaros's lair -- [[Sulfuron Keep]] -- are his most trusted guardians, including the turncoat [[Druids of the Flame]] and their mysterious leader. Yet Hyjal's defenders cannot afford to shy away from any of these dangers. Should Ragnaros prevail against the incursion and succeed in destroying Nordrassil, Azeroth will suffer a blow from which it might never recover.''<ref>[http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2682944#blog Patch 4.2 Preview: The Firelands]</ref>

:''It is rumored that the viziers themselves may serve an unseen emperor, one who is destined to lead the ancient spider-people to a final victory over the [[Scourge]]. While many can only speculate as to the existence of this nerubian emperor, some continue to investigate the link believed to exist between the nerubians and the vicious insect race known as the [[Qiraji]].''

The first four bosses of the instance can be killed in any order, but after they are defeated the instance follows a linear progression from Baleroc to Ragnaros. It is not exactly known how Heroic mode will affect the instance, but Ragnaros is supposed to have a different fight mechanic.

Firelands is a raid instance, released with Patch 4.2.0 on June 28, 2011. It can be entered through Sulfuron Spire in Mount Hyjal. It is a domain of Ragnaros the Firelord, from where he endlessly sends his elemental and mortal minions in order to fulfill his ultimate goal of destroying Nordrassil.

The raid consists of 8 bosses (one only accessible through the legendary quest chain), as well as outdoor and indoor environments. It is intended to be one grade in difficulty above raids implemented at release of Cataclysm, just as Ulduar was in Wrath of the Lich King.

Description from site

For ages, the Elemental Plane served its purpose as a secure realm to imprison Azeroth's primordial spirits... until the Cataclysm ruptured its boundaries. Without warning, Ragnaros's armies surged toward Mount Hyjal, intent on burning the World Tree of Nordrassil to the ground. In the ensuing conflict, many brave heroes gave their lives to protect Hyjal from destruction. By their noble sacrifices, the impossible was achieved: the Guardians of Hyjal pushed Ragnaros's minions back into the Firelands.

Now, the battle to protect Hyjal rages in Ragnaros's smoldering realm. As territory is gained and Azeroth's champions edge closer to the Firelands' inner sanctums, a monumental task lies ahead. Entrenched around Ragnaros's lair -- Sulfuron Keep -- are his most trusted guardians, including the turncoat Druids of the Flame and their mysterious leader. Yet Hyjal's defenders cannot afford to shy away from any of these dangers. Should Ragnaros prevail against the incursion and succeed in destroying Nordrassil, Azeroth will suffer a blow from which it might never recover.[1]
