Adventure Guide Entry

The in-game Adventure Guide text for the General Angerforge encounter in Blackrock Depths.

Through a lifetime of study, General Angerforge has become an expert on dwarven military history and tactics. He recently incurred Emperor Dagran Thaurissan's fury by writing a scathing treatise on his clan's failures in past conflicts. This political blunder aside, Angerforge is a Dark Iron to his core. He will bleed--and die, if necessary--to protect his people and his emperor.

Abilities & Strategy

Overview

General Angerforge commands an army within the Lyceum in defense of the Imperial Throne. Players will need to overcome an array of firepower in order to reach the general. Harbingers of Flame channel World In Flames, wreathing all players within the Lyceum in intensifying Fire damage. The Harbingers of Flame cannot be damage until the Shadowforge Braziers are lit using the Shadowforge Torches carried by the Shadowforge Flame Keepers. After both Shadowforge Braziers are lit, the burning barriers protecting General Angerforge will fall, opening the general up to attack directly.
