WoW Classic Season of Discovery Molten Core Bosses
The Molten Core boss only appears on the hardest difficulty, and its loot table seemingly includes items randomly pulled from previous bosses in the raid. This means defeating The Molten Core is not necessary to obtain any unique items, but doing so will allow fans extra chances at getting some of the best gear inWorld of Warcraft.
Reception to this secretWorld of Warcraftboss seems to be mixed. On one hand, many players thought fighting the actual Molten Core itself was a stroke of genius, and compared the orb-like enemy to Ozma, thedeadly optional boss fromFinal Fantasy 9andFinal Fantasy 14. However, others found The Molten Core’s design and boss fight to be simplistic and uninspired, and were hoping for something more unique. Either way, both sides congratulated the team responsible for discovering and quickly defeating this new encounter.
