Each type of cores has own drop chance, so you can loot up to four different items from a single demon.
Avoid fel elementals, they drop nothing but hit hard and annoy.

Enemies that drop the ''Fire Power Cores'' get stuck at 1 hp, if you try to do the quest with a lvl 80 character.

In case some of you came here by accident (like I did), you may have confused this quest with Elemental Core, the quest from this item: [item=163476].

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Infernal PhenomenaLevel 45
Do you hear that, shaman? The rumble of the earth as it tries to fight against the Legion's will. Their half-witted eredar are attempting to bend the forces of Azeroth to their will. How dare the Legion think they can corrupt my domain?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Brothers and SistersLevel 45
Your people were trying to stop the Legion before you arrived, but flesh is weak and they accumulated too many wounds. Without your aid, they will surely perish at the hands of the demons. Go, help them.
