TheWoWDBThis quest is pretty simple. First, tag one of the elementals that are valid for this quest, and make it reset. Either walk far away, or use an ability like feign death. After the mob has reset, you can take as many of the quest items as you want from that single mob!

Note that if you see the mobs shrink, but you get no progress, you need to make some bag space for the quest item that is made when you use the item. Then you need to get another mob.
Magma Elementals and Inferno Elementals just north / northwest of Blackrock Mountain. Target and use the Furnace Flask.

Description
We smith, we smelt, we roast up whatever spider meat we can get. Bush chicken if we're lucky. Point is, all o' this work means we need lots and lots of fire. Good thing we're smack dab in the middle of firetown. O' course, the best fire comes from the elementals. You'll find 'em all over Searing Gorge, but always near lava. Here, take these flasks and use 'em on the elementals. Oh, did I mention the elementals gotta be alive when you gather your sample?
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Thorium Point: The Seat of the Brotherhood
Did... did you see that? This is the missing piece we've been looking for! We have to take this information back to someone at Thorium Point. The Dark Irons have been known to consort with the firelord in the past, but never before have they brought their kind this far out into Searing Gorge.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Curse These Fat Fingers
Unfortunately, I can't dish out the beats like I used to, due to this here fat finger problem. Ye see, the climate out here combined with the lack o' air pressure makes me fingers expand. They're like gigantic Thelsamar Blood Sausages, they are...
