Wilderness · levels 51–60
Emberfall Wastes
West of the mountains the land burns: dunes and drifted ash under a smoking volcano, a river of lava running through the middle of it. Miragewell, a walled caravanserai round an oasis, is the last shelter on the caravan road; the Ember Faithful burn their offerings round a great pyre in the east, the dead of buried Ashkarn walk in the western ash, and Kharzim the Ashen Sultan holds his court under the volcano.

Getting there

On foot: Steamvent Barrens to Frostpeak Mountains; Cinderfen to Shadowfen Necropolis; Brokenhelm Steppe to Titanfall Ruins.
Doors here lead to The Cinder Forge.

Zarrakh, the Sunscourgelv 60 · raid boss
Its lair is at (-7, 16) – the world map in the game marks it. A fight for three to five heroes; it returns 12–24 h after it falls. A hero 9 or more levels above it cannot hurt it. After 11 minutes of a fight it rages and hits four times as hard – and twice as hard again every minute after, up to 256 times. Its health is for four heroes and grows or shrinks 15% with every hero more or fewer fighting it (up to ten) – a hero counts once they have dealt 0.5% of the four heroes' health and stand no more than 8 levels below it.
The whole pile goes to the party – or the hero – that dealt the most damage; every hero credited with the kill shares 10 times a world boss's experience by damage and earns 60 raid points, and each of their guilds gains 300 reputation.
Gathering
8 nodesEach gather gives 1–3 of the material and now and then the tier's rare one; a node regrows after 5 minutes.
