==Objectives==
−
If you want to gear up at the [[Auction_house|Auction House]], get used to being a homebody instead of roaming the beautiful world Blizz painted for us, because the really cool gear is overpriced and the mobs really just don't [[Got_My_Mind_On_My_Money_(5000_gold)|drop that much gold]] - so you'll spend a lot of time ka-chinging with the [[Auctioneer|AH NPCs]] buying low and selling high. Also some of the best stuff is [[Bind_on_pickup|Bind on Pickup]] and you won't find it there.
  
  +
Hunt down and slay Leyara, the [[Druids of the Flame|Druid of the Flame]].
  +
*Find [[Leyara]]
   
  +
==Description==
−
If you want to gear up by going and getting it yourself, you need to actually PLAN which dungeons and bosses to go after, and go a lot til you get the drop. [[Dungeon_finder|The Looking For Dungeon eye]] doesn't encourage planning; it encourages randoms, and take-what-you-get, because randoms [[http://www.wowpedia.org/Dungeon_Finder#Rewards|reward you]] with [[Satchel_of_Helpful_Goods|blues til you're bigger]], and [[Justice_Points|Justice Points]] after. The kind of people you meet in it 85% of the time don't encourage planning either; If you can win the boss, they don't care how haphazardly it was managed.
 
  +
Before we depart, <name>, I have another matter to which you should attend.
   
  +
One of these "Druids of the Flame" has been spotted in the ruins to the northwest. I suspect it is the same one that attacked us at the portal {{quest|A Ritual of Flame|several days ago}}. Now would be an ideal time to see what it is that they truly want.
−
VERY RARE is the LFD group who's willing to kill all trash and do a No Loot Left Behind run, to take what [[World_drop#World_drop|world-drops]] may come of that too. Much more rare, I daresay, than finding nice people among the random souls of LFD. I've met plenty of nice people, but I've met a lot more 'ok lets do this' who are neither mean nor nice, it's not even a game really for those, it's a required element of the job of gearing up via dungeoning.
  
   
  +
Indulge the curiosity of an old tauren. See to this flame druid, then we can continue on our planned course.
−
If you can't win the boss... some just quit, they'll zone in a half hour later, they don't care about you anyway; others will throw tomatoes first. A few will at least give it two or three shots - mayyybe four: one for Fail, one for uh-k here's the strategy now try doing it, two for ok now that you *get it* let's do it right. [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2456911307 They met the somewhat rarer soul] who treated it more purely: I'm here to win a boss, it's a team challenge - I accept the greater challenge now presented, to win it with what I've been given, so I won't give up til we do. (In the real world that man has to face, he doesn't get [[Spirit_Healer|spirit heals]] as an option. In Azeroth we do, so the tools he was given included infinite ammo.)

==Rewards==
−
If you gear merely by taking the best that questing gives you, and you quest a lot instead of level via [[Archaeology]], you might be not half bad, but you WILL be in greens.

Notes

Leyara can be found to the northwest, not far from the Grove of Aessina and the Whistling Grove, standing on the edge of the broken bridge at [6.7, 33.8]VZ-Mount HyjalBlip at Leyara's Sorrow.

Speak with her:

That Malfurion... fitting of him to send his <race> underling to speak with me.
He has proven himself a coward, as always.

Gossip Why? What did Malfurion ever do to you?

Never you mind, <race>. The details of my past were burned away when I joined the Druids of the Flame. They are of no concern to you.
Besides, I am here to discuss the future of this realm. And I do not plan to discuss it with you.
Now answer me... where is Malfurion!?

Gossip Malfurion is not coming.

Very well. Let him come into the Firelands, and we will deal with him there. His judgment can wait for a few more brief days.
<Leyara's eyes light up.>
The tauren arch druid, however, will not be so luck.

Leyara says: Now, look before you! One of Azeroth's most powerful "druids", reduced to nothing but a charred husk. Such is the will of Fandral Staghelm. Such is the will of the flame!
Leyara says: Go on, then. Weep over the body of your precious tauren... though I assure you that your tears will not bring him back.
