This is easily soloable, especially if you have a set of gear with fire resist.

Kommentar von 14507

Soloed as a level 53 BM Hunter. I would have a Major Healing Potion handy. Pet died in process but he doesn't close to melee range so you can shoot the rest of his life out. He has about 6500 hps. As for fire resist I have 0 and he was hitting me for 497 every 5 seconds, of course that spell is interruptible.

I cant find this guy, is he in a cave or something? the coordinates given go off the badlands map. And I ran up and down that mnt. range and found nothing. Any help finding him would be appreciated! ^.^ Thanks

Kommentar von 102401

Erm....scratch that last comment I was looking at the wrong zone. I was trying to find him in Searing Gorge where I got the molting. oopsie

Kommentar von 12060

In order to get this quest you have to have done this quest series https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=3442 which starts in Searing Gorge.

EDIT: It turns out that this is the first quest you have to do, although it's very simple, and from the same guy. https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=3441

Kommentar von Thottbot

How do I get the quest?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Cyrus Therepentous gives it to you, he is in the cave in Burning Steppes it's the cave to the NE along the Mountains.

Kommentar von Thottbot

He's at 94.31

Kommentar von Thottbot

I cant find him and i aint got the coordinate map.. the cave to the north?

Kommentar von Thottbot

where do i get the molt

Kommentar von Thottbot

You get the molt out of the chest dropped by the guy near Thorium Point.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Talk to him again once you get the quest... He'll spawn a 54 elite. Kill him and get the Molt as loot.

If you're in a group, be warned: The Molt is NOT a group loot item, one person should get the quest, call in the minion, then the next person, etc...

Kommentar von Thottbot

is there such a thing as too low? I went to cyrus with teh black dragonflight molt and he gave me the quest...when i tried turning in the quest...it stayed grey and he wouldnt talk to me

I am a Level 52 Mage.

Yatz

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got the item (it says 1/1) but Cyrus still has a grey "?"

>_<

Druid lvl 52

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah I did this quest as a 52 rogue...didn't have to fight a dragon. I walked in and talked to him, he said show me the molt and I accepted the quest. You talk to him again, and there's an option to show him the molt. You click that and it says quest complete. He says some stuff and you click him again to complete the showing the molt to him quest. Then he gives you the quest for brd. The only dragons I saw were outside. He didn't spawn ANYTHING.

Kommentar von Thottbot

As a 56+ sub spec I was able to do it this way...

After talking to quest giver the dragon should spawn. Vanish and lose aggro, sneak behind it and use preperation, then ambush, use sinister strike (ss)once or twice to get up to 5 combo pts then use expose armor to drop his armor. By now u'll prolly have to use either Evasion or if u're friendly with AB then the Talisman of Arathor https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=51397 (I used both, one at a time of course) to abosrb his attack. Use a healing pot then preperation to finish cooldown of rogue timers. Meanwhile, continue to ss and evicerate to keep dropping his hit pts.

With any luck u'll kill him quickly. (Strategy also works with other 52+ elietes).

Good Luck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well i'm a 56 Arcane-Frost mage, and I can't beat him. I have good gear, and he just does too much damage. If I casted until I died, I could probably get him down halfway, but since he casts stacking Flame Buffet, and he's immune to fire and Counterspell and Frost Nova, I can't do any decent damage, or have any way to stop him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Wher do I find the the Curys?

Kommentar von Thottbot

he is at 93,32 inside the cave

Kommentar von Thottbot

It blew my mind at first to because the ? was gray and I had what he needed to turn ? yellow and get the exp. Took me a min but YOU HAVE TO click on the sentence below the quest when you click on him that says something like "I want to show you proof" and then the ? turns yellow and the quest can be completed.....Good Luck Ya newb pop.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lvl 52 shadow priest, got him solo, 5450 xp. Just keep breaking LoS around the cave walls and he can't cast flame buffet on you, if he gets it off just dispel it. Try not to get hit, he was hitting me for 450+ melee.

Kommentar von Thottbot

after accepting the quest, speak with him again and tell him you don't have any proof. then he'll say something and you say that you're ready. he'll summon a 54 elite for you to kill.

you get the mote off of the elite

turn the mote in and then accept the quest for BRD

Kommentar von Thottbot

The NPC that gives the quest is at 95,31 by my coordinates. The only thing that I have to add is that the mob he summons is NOT elite. It's just a level 54 dragon.

Kommentar von Thottbot

If u, by mistake, destroys the Molt.. Then u cant Complete the quest, right:O?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Once you have aquired the quest talk to him again, you have an option to click to click in th dialouge box, click that than a 54 dragon we spawn riht outside the cave, you can attack it once you kill it loot the molt, and return it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The dragon is no longer an elite and is pretty easy. im 54 but a 51 should be able to get him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i found the mote from the "trinkets..." quest in the searing gorge. but i got the mote before i knew about this quest so i checked what it was for and it brought me here.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i found this NPC - Cyrus Therepentous - by total luck, i wasn't even looking for him, just stumbled upon him in a cave in the eastern part of The Burning Steppes (at map location 94,31).

anyway, you need to have the Black Dragonflight Molt with you that you received from the Trinkets... quest.

later on,
Rock.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Not a problem, fire potion, shield ward, blazing emblem. Did not have to heal at all.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have the molt in hand and he keeps asking for me to show it to him...but then the quest marker for him after he asks for it turns grey, as if I have not filled the prereqs. About to submit a ticket if I can't find out more info.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i have Abgestreifte Haut des schwarzen Drachenschwarms but i havent got the quest Quest: A Taste of Flame do i usually just get the q when i loot the dragon flight...anyay i tried taking it to Cyrus he said "only a fool would disturb me in my cave" and he has a silver excalamtion mark above his head. Doesnt that mean i am too low lvl for the quest...im only lvl 51. What would u do?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

there is a respawn timer for tasting. if you have a team and everyone wants a taste, it takes like 15 min before it allow another drake to be spawned. oh yeah, only one taste per per drake. I had a team of 5 so that's at least 1.5 hours if you want everyone up to speed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just make sure you click on him twice.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

or you can challenge him through dialogue.

he pops a 54 elite pet kill it (but not him) and he drops the Black Dragon Flight molt.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I looted http://wow.allakhazam.com/images/icons/INV_Misc_ShadowEgg.png from the box i opened now where do i take it?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

In order to complete quest, you get the quest from Cyrus Therepentous in the cave at 94,31 in Burning Steppes. Then complete the dialog with her and she will spawn the elite you need to kill to get the mote

Kommentar von Allakhazam

His minion is just outside the cave. For Locks, if you have curse of doom, use it. Then, have your VW with you, plus a major mana pot. As your Pet's health drops, hit sacrifice and drink a pot. resummon pet and hit the minion with shadow bolt. When the COD kicks in, either the minion will die or have very few HP left.
Oh, make sure you have good Fire resist when you do this...mine was 25...not much, but it worked.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If you DO NOT have the from the Trinkets quest:

Talk to Cyrus, then choose speech option "I do not have proof". A level 54 elite Frenzied Black Drake will spawn, kill it and loot the . (At this point Cyrus' question mark will still be SILVER)

Talk to Cyrus again and choose the speech option "I have proof". NOW the question mark above his head will be GOLD and you are able to turn in your quest :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You don't need the previous quests to be able to do A Taste of Flame...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The post of TheAnubus was helpfull. I did just that clicking on Cyrus twice. A level 54 black dragon entered the cave and I attacked it. Wasnt successfull on the first try coz I had to vanish but on the second try I got him down and looted him the quest item. If you fail to beat him he'll just be waiting outside the cave.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So. I'm at the Dragonkin. All he tells me is "Only a fool would dare disturb me in my lair." Any help?

Kommentar von t0lkien1

If you are having trouble gaining the Molt because you either can no longer spawn the dragon, or the dragon doesn't drop anything when killed:

As has been said, the Molt is also a quest reward from Trinkets... in Searing Gorge. There seem to be several ways this quest can screw up, but if you fall victim to any of them, go back to Searing Gorge, talk to Squire Maltrake to get him to give you another Torch. Once you have the Torch the "Trinkets..." quest should again appear in your quest log. Now loot the chest right next to him. It's not the chest that spawns on one of the towers. You will then get the quest reward which contains the Molt. Go back to Burning Steppes and hand in the Mote to the NPC (you won't have to spawn and defeat the dragon).

My guess is the game has the Trinkets... quest as already complete in your character file, and so blocks the Molt dropping from the dragon, which weirdly can cause the dragon not to spawn at all.

Kommentar von Malvenue

*** YOU DO NOT NEED TO KILL THE SPAWNED ELITE UNLESS YOU DO NOT HAVE THE MOLT. ***

He spawns the Elite for those who do not have the Molt. The elite drops it.

Kommentar von Halfcadence

If you're using an addon that automatically turns in your quests, you may need to turn it off momentarily or hold down the modifier that pauses it so you can talk to him to present the proof.

Kommentar von clinia

Classic HC server.

Easy solo as 56 hunter.
Every time the dragon got close to about 30yards away, it stopped moving and started to cast it's frontal breath, moved a step away and it started moving, until back in range and started recasting it's breath again.

So it never got close to me.
