Defeat Magmaw in Blackwing Descent on Heroic Difficulty.

Heroic: Magmaw is a 10-point achievement earned by defeating Magmaw on Heroic difficulty inside Blackwing Descent.

1

Enter Blackwing Descent

Enter Blackwing Descent and engage Magmaw on Heroic difficulty. Every 35 seconds, Nefarian summons a Blazing Bone Construct via a falling Meteor (Blazing Inferno) that deals around 75, 000 fire damage on impact.

2

Dodge the Meteor Impact

Watch for the ground indicator marking where the Blazing Inferno Meteor will land — it looks similar to the Pillar of Flame ground effect — and move away before it hits, as the impact deals roughly 75,000 fire damage.

3

Avoid Ignition Fire Patches

After the Meteor lands, it leaves Ignition fire patches on the ground in an S-shaped pattern that move quickly and deal approximately 55, 000 fire damage per second, so never stand near them as there is not enough time to escape without a major damage mitigation cooldown.

4

Kite Moving Fire Patches

As the Ignition patches move across the arena, the raid must continuously reposition to avoid them, effectively kiting around the area throughout the fight.

5

Survive Armageddon Casts

When any Blazing Bone Construct reaches 20% health, it begins casting Armageddon, an 8-second cast that deals approximately 125, 000 fire damage on completion, so prioritize burning down or interrupting Constructs before this cast finishes.

6

Handle Nefarian at 30%

Once Magmaw drops to 30% health, Blazing Bone Constructs stop spawning and Nefarian instead begins dealing shadow area-of-effect damage to random raid members continuously until Magmaw is defeated, so push hard on Magmaw's health in this final phase.
