Background:
The Fire Lord is one of the more tricky mobs in the dungeon. A poorly handled Lord can quickly wipe an entire raid. As such, care must be taken when engaging this mob. This mob respawns in about 150 minutes and is a static spawn.

Attacks:
This mob has a variety of attacks. He attacks the tank with a rather weak attack and will hit most people for 500 fire elemental damage. However, he can debuff people such that each fire attack is increased by XXX amount. We have had people debuffed up to 1200 more damage on each attack. He will also cast a single target dot for 4000 damage. It does 250 fire damage every 2 seconds and also silences that person.

His last special ability is a raid wiper. He will periodically summon a Lava Spawn. This mob does ranged single target damage for about 600. If this mob is left up for too long he will split into two Lava Spawns. Then two will split into four and so on.

Strategy:
We have gotten quite comfortable fighting Fire Lords. The key to these mobs is to simply kill the Lava Spawns as they are summoned. Our dispellers are also on their toes and make sure to dispell anyone that gets dotted as soon as possible. We use Blizzard during the fights since it does damage both to the spawns and the Lord at the same time, not to mention it is particularly devastating against the Lava Spawns and does double damage.

One of the hardest fights in the zone for us is taking on two of these monsters at the same time. If we get two at once we make sure they are right next to each other and just let loose with all the AEs. Done right, both lava spawns are killed before they can split. Done poorly and you are looking at a wipe.
