Chapter 1088: Damn You For Not Warning Me

“You can see that it’s wearing a Twilight badge,” Lu Li said as he pointed at the purple badge on Loregrain’s chest before adding, “If they are wearing the badge, then they definitely are from the Twilight Council. It’s true that there are some who don’t wear the badge, but we won’t go wrong if we attack first.”

“Damn this guy. Why is he kneeling there so piously?” Azure Sea Breeze groaned before charging in.

“Everyone else, wait,” Lu Li said as he extended his arm to stop everyone else. They all trusted Lu Li, so no one objected. Everyone just gathered around to watch Azure Sea Breeze die.

“Hey, Lu Li, are you just trying to get me killed?”

Azure Sea Breeze was revived and found that his equipment was in the red again. (When the durability of an item became low, the players would refer to it as being “in the red”). After all that had happened, Azure Sea Breeze decided not to bottle up his feelings anymore.

“Oh, do you feel like you died too quickly?” Lu Li asked.

“Well if no one is healing me, of course I’ll die faster.” Azure Sea Breeze was about to cry.

“Well, quickly go and change into your Fire Resistant equipment. I’ll get my robot to fix your equipment. Everyone else can get their equipment repaired too.”

Lu Li already knew that Azure Sea Breeze wouldn’t be able to tank the attacks, and didn’t want everyone else to die too.

The strength of Pyromancer Loregrain was that he was a master of fire.

This strength manifested in the way of incredible fire damage. Under normal circumstances, almost no Main Tank could withstand his fire attacks unless they specifically wore Fire Resistance equipment.

Stratholme, Maraudon and a few other Instance Dungeons that Ruling Sword had completed were places where they had a chance to acquire a number of excellent Fire Resistance items.

From this alone, you could already see the benefits of having a guild and a team. If Lu Li was alone, it would have been impossible for him to have acquired such a variety of equipment.

Once Azure Sea Breeze put on his equipment, he was finally able to stand up against the fierce firepower of the Boss. The next step was to discover the few skills that the Boss would use. The party was wiped a few times but eventually worked out the correct strategy and successfully killed the Boss.

Compared with the other Bosses in the arena, Pyromancer Loregrain was considered a major Boss.

Unfortunately, Wendelian failed to find any Epic equipment. There was the Burning Stave, Flamestrider’s Robes and Searingscale Leggings, which were all Dark Gold items. Their Attributes weren’t bad, and everyone who needed them rolled for them. As for the other two pieces of Gold equipment, they were given to Azure Sea Breeze as compensation.

Over this entire dungeon run, he had died multiple times and would likely spend a few dozen gold coins just to repair his equipment. The defensive potions that he often drank weren’t cheap either.

Lu Li read over the Enchanting Recipe, which was probably the most valuable item that was dropped by the Boss.

Not only did Lu Li make his two teammates roll for this item, but even Water Fairy participated to ensure he would get it. Regardless, there was no one here that studied Enchanting anyway since it was thought to be a waste of time.

Formula: Weapon Enchantment – Heated Weapon

Recipe: Enchantment

Requirement: Advanced Enchanting (245)

Use: Teaches you a permanent Enchantment for melee weapons, which can increase flame damage by 40%.

Fire was a very powerful means of dealing damage, which was why Fire Mages had stronger attacks than Ice Mages. Many players would use this Enchantment on their weapons, regardless of whether it was against other players or just monsters. The 40% increase in damage triggered quite frequently.

Additionally, this Enchant also had a hidden effect – a chance of dealing burn damage to the target.

“We’ll rest for half an hour and then fight another two Bosses before disbanding for the day.”

Lu Li saw that morale was not very high, so he gave everyone a break. Even if they decided to stop here, it wouldn’t matter too much as they weren’t in a hurry to finish this Instance Dungeon.

It was impossible for any party to complete Blackrock Abyss in the same day, especially if they were getting wiped this often.

Lu Li intended to go back and deal with the two Bosses by the Steel Gate. These two Bosses were more forgiving, which was more appropriate given everyone’s physical and mental fatigue.

If they went back towards the entrance and turned left, they would soon reach a wide black road. This was the Steel Avenue.

On the right side of the Steel Avenue was the path that led into Shadowforge City. To the left was the Gate that was guarded by one of Ironforge’s three lava giants – Bael’Gar.

The three Ironforge lava giants were Bael’Gar, Volchan and Magmus. Bael’Gar was not the strongest of these, but any creature guarding the Steel Gate was not to be trifled with. Bael’Gar’s strongest skill was Fission. Few people got to witness his power because those who did usually didn’t survive.

This terrible lava giant was blocking the Steel Gate, which was a grand work created by the Ironforge Engineers. Ragnaros had sent the giant from the central part of Molten Core and ordered him to guard the door for all eternity. The legends said that only the King of Fire and the top members of the Ironforge knew what was hidden beyond the gate.

Regardless of whether Lu Li wanted to explore or not, they had a quest that asked them to use the special black dragon skill to collect flame essence from Bael’Gar’s body.

“Can I go in?” Azure Sea Breeze asked as he looked at Lu Li in fear.

He had decided not to charge in on his own initiative anymore. Lu Li wasn’t evil and would only let him die when he charged in on his own. Although the Main Tank was usually given compensation after the Instance Dungeon run, everyone would want to avoid dying if they could.

“Put on your Fire Resistance equipment and go right ahead,” Lu Li said.

“Will I die?” Azure Sea Breeze didn’t feel assured.

“Who knows? You’re a Main Tank, so dying should be normal for you.”

Lu Li was unsympathetic. He thought that Azure Sea Breeze had died so many times that he should be used to it by now.

Azure Sea Breeze gave his commander the middle finger and slammed his weapon into Bael’Gar, who was shrouded in flames.

Bael’Gar’s first ultimate skill was called Lava Splash – players who attacked him in melee would receive fire damage every 3 seconds for 24 seconds. This effect could stack up to 3 times.

This was a difficult skill for melee players to deal with as they would often die if they did nothing about it. Some teams didn’t like taking melee players into the Blackrock Abyss for this reason, thinking that ranged players were somewhat safer because they didn’t have to be so close to the burning elementals.

Lu Li and the others had no choice as the team’s composition had already been decided.

If there were more melee players, then they would need to retreat everyone once in a while. There was a waterway not far from that location. Melee players that were burning could jump into the waterway to stop the burning.
