Lava Guard Gordoth

Ragefire Chasm Final Boss

The Mighty Ragefire Chasm Master has moved from Ogrimmar underground caverns into the Nexus, thirsty of more blood. Finally one of the most iconic low-level Dungeon Boss has shown up.

His warrior role is capable of turning every situation in favor of his team, giving him access to many builds. Powerful Quest! talents require time and skill to end but the reward is immense.
His talents allow many different playstyles, giving him a full tanking spec as well as an assassin and a hybrid one. Merge different talents to become an incredibly powerful in every situation.

Lore:

Hubris drove the brilliant shaman Gordoth to act as a living conduit for energies pulled from the Firelands. He and his allies had hoped to mimic the creation of elemental ascendants in the Twilight's Hammer cult. Instead, the explosive influx of power drove Gordoth insane and mutated his body into a hideous form.
