Strike at the Heart

For players, such as myself, who finished the entire quest-line, completed quite a few achievements, left, but then came back a while after to finish up the rest of the achievements and found themselves wondering which and how many of the available quests they needed to complete to reach certain achievement related dailies.

Behold- the bare minimum!
You must complete these everyday (In order to reach the quests for: Ready for Raiding II
[npc=52467]: (Aggressive Growth/Wisp Away)
[npc=53080]: Burn Victims
[npc=52824]: Hostile Elements and (Breach in the Defenses/The Dogs of War/The Harder They Fall/Traitors Return)

---

You must then choose one of the two quests offered by General Taldris.
You can do either, it's simply prefrence as they both lead to the necessary quest for: Ready for Raiding II)
The Forlorn Spire or Into the Fire

---

If you choose: The Forlorn Spire.
You can ignore all the quests, to proceed (other then: The Wardens are Watching which will continue the chain.)
1. The Wardens are Watching/Solar Core Destruction
2. Enduring the Heat
3. Strike at the Heart (i.e. Our Quest for Ready for Raiding II)
Important: If You don't get credit for the kill in the achievement tracker then abandon the quest and re-grab it!
Note: This Quest is Indeed a Daily (Even though Wowhead displays this version (offered by Shalis Darkhunter) as being a non-repeatable Quest.)

---

If you choose: Into the Fire.
You can ignore any of the quests in the immediate area other then Thisalee Crow's Quests to proceed.
1. Both of Thisalee Crow's Quests

1. 
   
2. Flamewakers of the Molten Flow
3. 
   
4. Fire Flowers- Note: You do not turn this quest into her; the quest ends back on the surface, so you must take the tunnel back up to turn in this quest. When you turn this in, there will now be offered more quests.
   
5. 
   

You can ignore any of the quests in the immediate area other then Morthis Whisperwing's Quest.
3. Morthis Whisperwing's Quest- Note: You can turn this quest into him or into Skylord Omnuron, whom you need to travel to next to obtain the next quest.
4. Strike at the Heart (i.e. Our Quest for Ready for Raiding II)
Important: If You don't get credit for the kill in the achievement tracker then abandon the quest and re-grab it!

The Into the Fire version is far more tedious and time consuming in my own personal opinion.
Choosing Into the Fire also has a chance to backfire as completing this method two days in a row will result in Morthis Whisperwing's Quest being Fire in the Skies which will not allow you to obtain Strike at the Heart for that day.

Just because the current screenshot might be misleading, the lieutenant of the flame changes daily, giving you some waiting to do before achieving Ready for Raiding II

Since you chose to help the Shadow Wardens today, your helpers are [npc=53074] and [npc=53480]. She casts [spell=99949]/[spell=99950] to create two [npc=53483]/[npc=53742]s. Going through one sends you to the other, and gives you [spell=99953] to double your movement speed for 15 seconds, to help you escape from whatever fiery hell is on the ground. It also increases your damage by a whopping 100 per attack (not %, just 100 damage), which increased the listed DPS in my Character Info by 2%. [spell=99952]/[spell=99959] keeps you from using that particular pair of gates again, but don't worry, there will soon be another. The Druids of the Talon version of Strike at the Heart has a different escape mechanic - swirling winds you can step in and jump far away from. If you're having trouble, just stay out of the fire and stay alive - your helpers are pretty tough.

To get this quest you need to have to have progressed far enough with the Firelands Invasion to have completed Calling the Ancients (as previously stated), and you have to do at least seven other quests today:
* Burn Victims
* Hostile Elements
* [npc=52824]'s other quest of the day (Breach in the Defenses, The Dogs of War, The Harder They Fall, or Traitors Return)
* [npc=52467]'s quest of the day (Aggressive Growth or Wisp Away)
* * The Forlorn Spire ([npc=52824] will also offer Into the Fire at this point for the Druids of the Talon, but you don't want it - you can only help one group each day)
* * * [npc=52494]'s quest of the day (The Wardens are Watching or Solar Core Destruction)
* * * * Enduring the Heat
