Lithiel Cinderfury
Murder Row · boss 4 of 4
Lithiel Cinderfury sees the Voidstorm above Silvermoon as both threat and opportunity. Her people are afraid, and she has a perfect solution... the power of fel. She claims her smuggling operation protects her people from the dangers above, but the profits she receives are a pleasing bonus.
Her own gateway is the answer to her own wave — take it. And kill the imps before the wave reaches them, because anything it touches comes out faster.
A fight with a provided escape route. Malefic Wave expands across a large area doing heavy damage and stacking Fire vulnerability; Lithiel opens a Demonic Gateway to get herself clear, and players who travel through it are immune to the wave's impact and its vulnerability. The wave also empowers any of her demons it passes over.
What actually kills you
Everything else is noise until these three are handled.
- Eating Malefic Wave on foot. The stacking Fire vulnerability means the second one hurts more than the first, and the third is usually fatal.
- Leaving Wild Imps alive into the wave. Malefic Empowerment gives them haste, and Fingers of Gul'dan spawns them next to everybody.
- A Chaos Bolt that lands. It is a large hit on a random player and it is interruptible.
Your job
If you tank
- The Furious Vilefiend hits hard and needs picking up while the group is dealing with imps and a wave.
- The Infernal fixates rather than tanking. Whoever it picks kites; you cannot taunt it off them.
If you heal
- Even using the gateway, the wave leaves a lingering burn on the players who passed through it. It reduces the damage, it does not remove it.
- Fingers of Gul'dan lands on every player at once. It is group damage and an add spawn in the same cast.
If you DPS
- Take the gateway. Running from the wave loses to it; going through the portal beats it outright.
- Clear the imps before the wave arrives. Empowered demons are a much bigger problem than the imps themselves.
- Interrupt Chaos Bolt. Between the two of you, it should never resolve.

Worth a bonus roll?
You cannot roll this boss on its own. A dungeon roll is against the whole instance, so this table is one part of a pool that includes every other boss in Murder Row — the bonus roll guide explains what that changes, and the planner works it out per spec.
