Molten Core while "small" in size compared to some instances, MC is filled with monsters that take 40 of the max level characters to take down. There are 10 main bosses in the dungeon:
- Lucifron
- Magmader
- Gehennas
- Garr
- Baron Geddon
- Shazzrah
- Golemagg The Incinerator
- Sulfurion Harbringer
- Majordomo Executus
Lastly there is the main boss at the end, the Firelord Ragnaros.
MC is large enough that they actually save your progress through the dungeon and give you one week to complete it. Our first night we stomped our way to Shazzrah who crushed us a couple times. As it was getting really late, like hour 4 of the run, we stopped for the night.
Run two was a couple days later. During run two we finally managed to nuke Shazzrah after we adjusted our tactics. We crushed Golemagg, and Sulfurion with little loss of life, but Majordomo Executus was another matter. It took us 4 tries and 3 raid wipes (a wipe is when all 40 people die) to defeat the Majordomo. As this was the first time the group had taken down Majordomo we were pretty excited about the whole thing. The only boss left to us was Ragnaros the Firelord who we didn't stand a chance of defeating. Despite the fact we couldn't kill him we decided to spawn him and say "Hi".
Of course in our excitement over the defeat of Executus we tried to go to fast, on the first set of "trash" monsters we ran into the entire raid wiped, twice. We went back to the start of the dungeon and decided to visit Rag through the front door as the monsters over there are much, much easier.
After spawning Rag by talking to the defeated Majordomo, Rag appears and kills Executus for his incompetence. Of course after the scripted sequence ended someone decided to attack him which ended up getting a chunk of the raid killed by Rag and his big hammer. Luckily a bunch of us jumped through a portal and escaped to Ironforge and safety. Screenshots of the end room are below, click for a high-res image (300k).
