TheWoWDBBe advised - Moltron hits like a truck. I took, as an 82 rogue, a 43k white hit - no crit, no smash. Do yourself a favour: let the turtle do the tanking.

Someone needs to teach this turtle how to use Sunder.
My mage got stomped to death by the King. I flew back to watch the end of the fight, after eating and drinking, my mage did a little more fighting and then it was all over. So don't give up if you die.

Description
The magma giants who serve Ragnaros are kept in line by their king's heavy-handed rule. Were we to take care of him, the rest will surely fall into disarray. Without the giants, the fight on the ground will get a lot more even. Perhaps even tilt to our favor. But felling the magma monarch will be no easy task. Use these drums to enlist the help of the great Tortolla who is capable of holding off King Moltron for an eternity. But holding him off won't be enough -- and that's where you come in.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sanctum of the Prophets
The mad prophets of the Twilight's Hammer congregate in the area just north of the Ascendant's Rise. It is said that their dark visions are granted to them directly by the Old Gods. Whether or not that is true, they provide tremendous spiritual guidance to the cult.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Twilight Egg
The egg is unlike any that you've seen before. Its translucent shell appears to bend the light around it. Accompanying it, you find a note describing the arrival of a fertile broodmother at the Ascendant's Rise. Perhaps you should show this to Aronus.
