After opening the bridge to Smolderon and doing all the associated RP, send 6 players back to the start of the instance. Right in front of the instance portal at the start of the raid is this pool of water. Walking into it will give you the buff [spell=426312] for 10 minutes. Once all 6 people have this buff, proceed to (or get summoned to) the boss room.
Once in the boss room you'll see the 6 runes I have marked in this screenshot. The people that picked up the water need to take it in turn to walk over a rune and use their extra action buttons to douse it. The dousing process is an 8 second channel so make sure you're safe before starting as you can't move for the 8 seconds. Once the rune is doused the raid will take ~200k damage from [spell=426484], so you'll want to limit it to 1 or 2 runes at a time just so no one dies.
The runes change appearance when doused but it's very hard to notice so you'll want to either pre-assign who's dousing which rune or have someone calling out which to douse so you can keep track of which ones you've already done.
We never experimented with having more than 6 people get water and none of our dousers died so we can't say what happens or if they can be rezzed and keep going. If someone adds that later on I'll edit the comment and give that person credit.

It's referring to the runes you needed to douse in the Molten Core raid
- At the start of the raid there is a little water pool walk into it to get the buff called Dreaming Quintessence 6 people need the Dreaming Quintessence buff more can get it
- Once you have the buff make your way to the boss and do 1 rune at a time you can do 2 if you feel strong enough to heal the damage
- make sure not to put the fire on the runes as it make it harder to cast the water ability it has long channel
GL have fun guys/girls
