Hydraxian Waterlords Reputation Farming Guide

Last updated on Jul 06, 2024 at 13:39 by Seksixeny 3 comments

The Hydraxian Waterlords are a group of friendly Water Elementals led by Duke Hydraxis that oppose Ragnaros and, eventually, allow you to summon him by providing access to Majordomo Executus through Aqual Quintessence Icon Aqual Quintessence, which is used to douse the boss runes in Molten Core.

In this guide, we will go over all the ways in which you can obtain Hydraxian Waterlords reputation and what rewards are on offer, including the permanent Eternal Quintessence Icon Eternal Quintessence at Revered.

Hydraxian Waterlords Reputation in Season of Discovery

Besides allowing you to summon Ragnaros with Aqual Quintessence Icon Aqual Quintessence, it is quite likely that this reputation will be deeply tied with the Heat adjustable difficulty levels for Molten Core and we will be updating this guide to explain how exactly as it becomes known.

There will also be new recipes acquirable, which will help with clearing the 20-man version of Molten Core.

Hydraxian Waterlords Overview

The Hydraxian Waterlords are led by Duke Hydraxis and comprised of Water Elementals that oppose Ragnaros, the Firelord. You can find Duke and the other friendly elementals at the 79,73 coordinates in Azshara, on an island off the coast.

Unlike most reputations, the purpose of the Hydraxian Waterlords is straightfoward: unlocking the two final bosses of Molten Core, Majordomo Executus and Ragnaros. You can do this through the one-use Aqual Quintessence Icon Aqual Quintessence, which you can request off of Duke Hydraxis once you complete his full questline, or through the permanent Eternal Quintessence Icon Eternal Quintessence, once Revered.

Gaining Reputation with the Hydraxian Waterlords

There are three ways of earning reputation with the Hydraxian Waterlords.

  • Killing Air and Fire elementals in Silithus and the Burning Steppes, as well as the Fire elemental bosses in Blackrock Depths and Upper Blackrock Spire;
  • Killing enemies in Molten Core, with bosses in this zone being the only reputation source once Revered;
  • Doing the final quest for this faction, A Hero's Reward, which awards 200 reputation.

Needless to say, the vast majority of your reputation gains will come from your weekly Molten Core clears, with the climb to Revered being relatively fast and the final climb to Exalted being extremely long.
