Comentario de Dusklight

This item appears to drop from the Lavaslurper slug mobs found in the western portion of the Citadel.

The snail for this is located in the bottom of the lava pool at Scalecracker Peaks in the Waking Shores, coords approximately 71.8, 25.1
You will take quite a bit of damage from the lava, so I recommend bringing and/or being a healer.

Comentario de Wolfyw

ok so how do you get them?

Comentario de angrydj76

Has anybody got the Tuskarr up to renown 15 and got the lava fishing perk? you might have to fish the shell up out of one of the lava pools.

Comentario de LSSV

crazy theory.

the prehistoric sediment's that drop off the lava snails have a max 200 stack, and same icon picture and icon link......

could you be turning the 200 sediment in to turn it into this empty magmashell?.......

hmmmmmmm

Comentario de moncici90

Got this from a Lavaslurper, while trying to get the spices for the rare.

Comentario de RwNZ

They 110% drop from Lavaslurper

99% sure that they hotfixed this in just now - I've seen countless of these die and suddenly seen multiple drops within 30 mins.

Comentario de Roguinaa

To obtain Magmaconcha, you have to find an Caparazón de magma vacío.
These have a chance to drop off Sorbelavas. Once you obtain this item, go over to Caracol potenciado inside the lava and use the item on it.
/way #2022 22.6 71.6 Lavaslurpers
/way #2022 71.2 25.4 Empowered Snail

Note: Cuerno eterno de inmersión en lava allows you to avoid the Lava damage, so it's really useful to have for this mount, as the snail is located in a lava pool. Bringing a healer will work too.

Comentario de Kigozun

I just did this as a Blood DK. Got the shell during a hunt, then went to the Empowered Snail, dove straight down on it and started the channeling. One thing of note was that you can use CD's and not interrupt the channeling. I was able to use AMS then IBF and got the mount, then about .5 of a second later, Purgatory proc'd..

Comentario de AmadiaHS

My husband got this from the snail portion of the Grand Hunt in Eastern Waking Shores. Not sure if the steps for the Grand Hunt in this area are always the same? But if the hunt is up here it's worth a check, I suppose.

Comentario de Stormen

I just got one of these from a Basalt Shell mob on the way to the Enkine rare in Waking Shores

Comentario de R1p0ne0ut

I just obtained the shell and then the mount. The shell dropped about 22,68 in Waking shores on the lava river. It dropped from a lavaslurper. It took about 10 minutes to get it.

Went to the snail location (71,25 waking shores) is under the lava. If it's not there, it is probably on cooldown. Appears to be about a 25 minute respawn timer. It can be difficult to target so just type /tar empowered or /tar empowered snail. I had to do that.

You cannot heal yourself with any kind of channeled heal. I wasn't able to get through the lava damage and luckily someone showed up and healed me. I waited to help the other person but that person said had a healer coming to help so he said bye. Regardless, the point is you can't use a channeled heal. It takes about 10 seconds to get the shell onto the snail and you take about 16k dmg per second.

Comentario de Velor55

Here's a Rarity string for the shell

Comentario de Hoshkar

If you farm this while dragonbane keep is under friendly control there seems to be a ton more snails to kill in the area. I was able to get my shell in 5 minutes.

Clicking on the snail in the lava comes with a 20 second channel time, be prepared for this!
I had to have a druid come help me with this.

Comentario de KiwiGodTM

Had an Empty Magma Shell drop from a Basalt Shell near where the Lavaslurpers are

Comentario de Wolverrine

I can confirm that this shell does also drop from the Basalt Shell neutral snails that are near the Lavaslurpers.

Got it while there was an elemental storm in the area, as well.

Comentario de Cavemanchris

Just got one on the tiny island at 22.67, 71.29 in The Waking Shores. Maybe been farming about 30-40 minutes. Just flew from this island to the other tiny one to the north, back and forth. The mobs respawn every few minutes.

Comentario de Hoshkar

This is a very very common drop.
Do this when the Dragonbane event has just ended so the area is neutral. There are more spawns with no trash this way.

I farmed this for about 6 hours today and ended up with 18 of them.

Makes for a great holiday gift :D

Comentario de caramuruw

Got it mine in 5min farming on a bunch of lavaslurpers and 2 lava snails

Comentario de imHaunted

Would like someone to confirm, but as a Death Knight I was able to do this and avoid all Lava damage simply by activating Anti-Magic Shell before entering the lava. It would say "immune", my ghoul would die to lava, but I could stay in the lava as long as needed taking no damage.

Got the empty shell after about 20-30 kills.

Comentario de Areana

The snail has around a 25 min respawn timer from when somebody else clicks on it. Use this macro /tar Empowered Snail before u jump into the lava to make sure he is spawned.

Comentario de Micathius

I had one drop today when completing a hunt event in Hornswog Hollow at 70.06, 65.99. During the second phase snails and slugs will spawn which have a chance at dropping the shell, though I would imagine this is by far not the most effective method for farming.

Comentario de Gemsquem

Just took me 95 Lavaslurper kills. Perhaps I was unlucky...

Comentario de astha

I did farm the shells in the lava rivers inside Dragonbane Keep, after having completed the siege took me very short time to get one and i after that tryed for another to my son and my friend which was just as easy as the first one.
There isnt any aggresive mobs in the whole area when siege is finished so you can run around safe in whole area.
What is written about the dropchance must be a mistake because i got 3 in very short time.

Comentario de bentrick

Just got mine from a normal ole Lava Snail at 31,64 so its not just Lava Slurpers

Comentario de Zeroblazin

Can confirm, down by small river where the lava meets the water there was a water snail and lava snail face to face, I killed them together and the shell dropped.

Comentario de Roguesoldier

If you enter the lava pool with a a damage reducer or immunity (confirmed for Cloak of Shadows or Aspect of Turtle, at least) and stay under, you don't take damage. Even after your spell wears off. Makes this trivial.

Comentario de Hummingbird

Can confirm that the Empty Magma Shell can also drop from Lava Slug - one dropped for me from the group of Lava Slugs at 33, 72. This area is way easier to farm than killing the Lavaslurpers - you can do an entire loop of the magma river killing the slugs and they will respawn by the time you loop back around.

Comentario de Prycey

Just got one from completing Dragonbane Keep :)

Comentario de Silvansaria

So - there's the easy way and the hard way...

It all takes place within the areas of Dragonbane Keep.
Generalized area COORDS of where you need to be: 27 70
The Lava Slurpers spawn up and down the lava streams in groups of 2-3 on both sides. They have about a 5 minute respawn timer (give or take) so do a rotation,,,
It only took me about 15 minutes to get the item - so easily under 60 kills (I also spent time slaughtering everything else during the raid).

NOW...
Back to the original sentence:

The *easy* way - do this little hunt during the "HUNT" - when a full raid sweeps in there killing anything and everything in order to give the territory back to the dragons... It's super easy - you can virtually run around killing them (or aiding in kills as people AOE the hell out of the area) until you get the item. The big baddies DO NOT respawn during this time. I am literally standing in the middle of where they would be in force and there's nothing here except an Obsidian Vagabond (i.e. friendly).

The *hard* way - do it when there ISN'T an event going on - and carefully, stealthily, sneak and crawl around trying not to pull EVERYTHING. I actually was doing it this way first - when all of a sudden the event popped up and a giant raid of people swept in and starting slaughtering everything...

Comentario de Simdromatic

Death Knights can use Anti-Magic Shell before hitting the lava which will negate lava damage for around 20-25 seconds.

Spawn Tips:

If you hate waiting, shard hop using custom groups by joining large lobbies like "Grand Hunts", "Elementals", "Trials", or "Rare Farms"

Catching Tips:

Use two vigor points to fly straight up with your dragon and nose-dive at the snail to get 10 stacks of Dragonrider's Compassion (it's at the bottom of the pool)

Cast Anti-Magic Shell before you hit the lava which will dismount you

Swim down to snail and click on it. You should be able to survive long enough for the cast

Comentario de Moonshaft

Just stopping by to say that Gamgus is also a mob that drops the shell--so if the hunt that he's associated with nearby is around be sure to stop by to kill him and see if you get lucky. I just got mine off of him today.

Comentario de SFFCorgi

FWIW, the Lavaslurper my shell finally dropped from (after about a dozen or two slug kills) was at the base of the little lavafall right in front of Dragonbane Keep (24.88, 71.34).

Comentario de NcJackson

I had two of these shells drop within 15-20 minutes of farming around the Citadel area.

One shell dropped from a Lava Slug and another from a Lava Snail.

They can also be bought and sold on the auction house, so if you don't fancy farming it - that's always an option.

Comentario de DCCXVIII

You can buy it off the AH (currently sitting at around 3.5k gold) or you can spend the 5-10min it takes to farm it up yourself. I chose the latter. Just make a macro "/tar lavaslurp" and spam that to find the mobs you need. Easy peasy.

Comentario de Vladameir

I got one doing first quest killing snails around there around wingrest embassy..

Comentario de Cozy

Can 100% confirm these do drop from the Lavaslurper enemies. If you are a warlock having difficulty with the lava when going to put this on the empowered snail, you can use Demonic Gateway to get next to it, use Dark Pact and Unending Resolve and you will be good to get the mount. I died with about a second to spare but still got it.

Comentario de shanekuchler

the spawn timer is not 25 minutes, been waiting over an hour so far and it is not in the lava

Comentario de FlipperPA

After getting this shell and heading over to the Empowered Snail, I was able to solo this as a Warlock.

First, you need to ensure your talents include:

STRENGTH OF WILL (the "Unending Resolve" choice to the left, in the middle of the Warlock tree)
SOULBURN (bottom right - purple skill

Then you're ready to go - make sure you can target the Empowered Snail and it is there. It has a 25-minute or so spawn. Then this is the sequence:

Ensure that Dark Pact, Unending Resolve, Soulburn, and a Healthstone are available easily on your bar; I put them as keys 1, 2, 3, 4.
Stand at the very end of the rock that slopes gently into the lava.
Cast Demonic Circle: Summon
Pan your camera overhead, and cast your Demonic Gateway so it is right above the snail.
Cast Dark Pact
Immediately click the Demonic Gateway, and while swimming down, hit Unending Resolve, Soulburn, and a Healthstone (you'll have taken a tick of damage, which is required for the Healthstone to activate)
Click the snail to start the 16-second channel.
You should have about 20 seconds total with the defense you've used; as soon as you see the cast bar finish, click Demonic Circle: Teleport

And that's how I did it!

Comentario de Draegon1972

I got the Empty Magma Shell on the 39th kill of Lavaslurper :-)

Comentario de Ayzeex

Rogues, if you jump in the lava with Cloak of Shadows active, even after it expires you will not take damage. Got lucky and figured this out by chance

Comentario de Pharkb

This can be done without the Lavaswimming toy as a Fire Mage as long as you have the Cauterize, Diverted energy, and the tempest barrier talent, then the Dragonrider's Compassion skill. I flew straight down towards the snail, blinked once I hit the lava then quickly put up Blazing Barrier. If you click the snail quick enough you should have enough about time to claim it before dying to the lava/cauterize damage. I think I got it 1s before I died. Probably easier to just get a healer friend to help you, or just wait till you get the Lavaswimming toy, but I found it fun to attempt this.

Comentario de DadlyStrike

Not that I would necessarily recommend doing it this way, but I wanted to see if I could...

You can do this as a druid. I swam down in Travel Form, then switched to Bear Form, and survived with Frenzied Regen and Barkskin.

I normally don't have Verdant Heart active in my Druid talents, but switching into it kept me alive just long enough. Also had Well-Honed Instincts maxed.

Hope that helps! :D

Comentario de Dunfion

I did not see this in any other comment but you CAN loot the Empty Magma Shell without being level 70! I looted it on my level 62 Shadow Priest from Lavaslurpers after about 20 kills. I have not yet completed the Citadel siege. Just in case you're a glutton for punishment like me. Greatest difficulty was getting to the area without pulling mobs.

A few more details: Lavaslurpers count as lvl 69 mobs, so be prepared to miss a lot. Self-heals is helpful. The pack of lavaslurpers I camped 22.75 71.63 respawned every 3-4 minutes.

Enjoy!

Comentario de favebook

Once you have Empty Magma Shell, as a Demon Hunter, you can change spec to Tank (Vengeance) and take , this will be enough for you to survive lava if you start channeling asap. I also took Darkness and used it before channeling, but I am not sure if that helped.

Comentario de EleriaSam

Just dropped off the rare Captain Lancer 26, 76 The Waking Shores, Dragonsbane Keep.

Comentario de Thodric

Note that equipping 6 pieces of the Elemental Overflow gear will give you 8 seconds of immunity when you take fatal damage from the lava.

Comentario de Chaindog

HUNTERS: Once you have the shell and reach the Scalecracker Peaks lava pool, edge down the tall rock at 71.15 25.50 until near the lava. DISMISS YOUR PETS or Activision/PETA will chase you for DF cooking them and not eating them yourself!

Next hit your Aspect of the Turtle and Aspect of the Cheetah and rush down to the bottom of the lava. You'll see what looks like a flat dead baby snail. Click on the SNAIL, not the shell in your bag, until it pops the free Magmaconcha mount.

NOTE: Currently if Turtle finishes you will not take damage for another minute after obtaining the Magmaconcha. After testing: if you decide a lava bath is your thing, it'll then fry you and "make you one with the lava". Nearest graveyard is roughly 600 yards away unless RNG randomly spawns you 2k across the zone.

/way 71.15 25.5 Scalecracker Peaks pool

The empty shell isn't soulbound, so feel absolutely free to send it to your alts or guildies or even AH it.

NOTE: Still works in 10.1.5, and you can loot this multiple times, sell, or share it. Also advise for classes that CANNOT use similar bubble/shield abilities to give the empty shell in your bag to your ALTS that CAN and have them use it (mount = account-wide).

Still works in DF S3! =)

Comentario de Aidy12

Easy done as a prot warrior. Take Battle-Scarred Veteran talent, pop all CDs, and jump in, start channeling, once you get to below 30% hp you'll take very little damage for 8 seconds.

Comentario de phreakwithanf

Done as a level 70 prot pally 375 ilvl with 337k hp unbuffed. Just fly up with your proto-drake, come straight down on top of it. Pop Divine Shield right before you hit the lava and swim directly to it. Click it as soon as you're in range. I had one tick of damage left after completing the channel. Died but obtained the mount successfully.

Comentario de Dentarthurdent

Just did this as Draenei ele shaman with:

1. Astral Bulwark talent to increase DR of Astral Shift
2. Macro that uses Gift of the Naaru when you use Astral Shift (I always have these macroed together)
3. Earth Shield
4. Dragonrider's Compassion

As someone else said, ride up on your dragon to get 10 stacks of Dragonrider's Compassion, then dive straight down to the middle of the pool where the snail is, pop your Astral Shift/Gift of the Naaru macro just before you hit the lava to dismount yourself, channel the snail immediately. You could pop Earth Ele too I guess for the additional health, but I didn't.

This brought me down very low, like less than 5% health, but I did manage to complete the channel and get the mount, so it is doable (probably depending upon your health pool - unbuffed I'm at 258K).

Comentario de Sanamon

Once you've got the shell.

Make your way to:
/way 71.15 25.5 Scalecracker Peaks pool

Use your toy: Cuerno eterno de inmersión en lava
Be immune to the lava damage.

Click on the snail in the lava.

Win!

Comentario de Wooden1

Completed the lava part on a 368 Ret paladin with 200k health.

I stood on the rock that dips into the lava and used Shield of Vengeance then Divine Shield to swim down to the snail undamaged with 268k health. I survived long enough to just die as I got the mount.

Comentario de addictkinz

Just got Magmashell after 7 attempts of trial and error diving into that lava pool. Was lucky no one else was there when I was trying to get it.

Used a blood death knight and died a half second after obtaining. Glad I didn't die a second too early! :D

Comentario de Melandroso

Click the Caracol potenciado, not the shell in your bag! Clicking the snail starts a long cast, and you need a way to not die from the lava while clicking.

Comentario de LiriellGarrosh

I don't know if a druid strategy was posted yet, but what I did was just go ahead and die on top of the snail in the lava, resurrect and hit bear form right away, followed as quickly as I could by Barkskin, Renewal, Rejuvenation, Swiftmend, Ironfur, and Survival Instincts. It was just enough to allow the cast bar to finish. Naturally, I died before I could get out of the lava, but it was worth it! Level 68 druid bear with ilvl of 283.

Comentario de MurdaurTTV

Frozion just dropped this for me, it's not on his loot table on wow. Maybe new? https://youtu.be/pZVreqivYp0

Comentario de thesponge

I looted this today off a Spiteful Snail or Spiteful Slug during a Grand hunt, in the Waking Shores at 70, 67. So maybe it drops off more than just the snails around the Obsidian Citadel:) best of luck to you all!

Comentario de Kawi

Looted today from a lava slug near Obsidium Bulwark.

Comentario de AlexisJay

This item is needed to get Magmaconcha. I have a short video on how to get the mount here: https://youtu.be/PR98zkI-7B0

To get this mount, you need to collect an Caparazón de magma vacío, which is somewhat of a rare drop from Sorbelava, Babosa de lava and Caracol de lava . You can easily find these critters in the rocky lava area on the west side of the Waking Shores. There aren’t many of them, so if someone else is farming these, you may have a hard time finding any.

Once it drops for you, you have to travel to 71,25, north east of the Waking Shores, where you will find a large lava pool and at the bottom of it there is the Caracol potenciado. If you don’t see the snail, wait for it to respawn, shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes, or join a random group until you phase to somewhere where it’s up. You have to interact with the empowered snail to, I guess, put the shell on him, and the cast time is about 20 seconds. The lava will kill you. If you’re a healer, just pop sum HOTS on yourself before jumping in. If you’re not a healer, be sure to take a healer with you to keep you alive. There is also a toy, the Cuerno eterno de inmersión en lava, which lets you swim in lava without taking any damage.

Comentario de devourerthedk

As a dk you can do this easily as blood.
Put on Blood feast (left of blood tap in the talent tree)
Pre use Vampiric blood and use ams whilst you channel when you get low hp, this won't cancel the cast and will heal you aswell as absorb the damage taken.

Comentario de Muspel

I was *barely* able to solo this as an Arms warrior. I'm not sure if it's reliant on gear. Lava damage is based on your max health, but this relies on Ignore Pain, and I don't know if the absorb from that scales faster than your max health as you gear up. I was 417 ilvl, which is very high in 10.0 but should be way easier in 10.1. It might even get *easier* with less gear since Regenerative Leech would recover a bigger percentage of your health.

You'll need to spec into Ignore Pain, Spell Reflection, Pain and Gain, and Die By The Sword. You'll also need a cloak enchanted with a three star Regenerative Leech enchant (this should be very cheap).

I recommend using the following macro:

/cast Die by the Sword
/cast Spell Reflection
/cast Ignore Pain
/cast Defensive Stance

I didn't use one myself, but if you have an on-use trinket that boosts strength-- like one of the PvP trinkets-- you can add that in there too, before Ignore Pain. It'll make the ability absorb a bit more damage, but it's not necessary.

Build up some rage by fighting an enemy-- enough to cast Ignore Pain even after losing some to being out of combat.

Fly straight down towards the magma shell. As you swim down to the shell, press the macro-- it'll pop your defensives. Start channeling the shell as soon as you reach it. You should finish the cast with 10-20% of your health left. You'll probably die before you can make it to shore, but hey, you got the mount!

Comentario de LurkerPatrol

Tried this on my balance druid but ended up switching to resto to actually be able to survive.

I needed:

I hit all of them as soon as I was near the snail and then proceeded to click the snail. The heals kept me alive just long enough to finish the cast but when I tried to exit I died and had to resurrect. I would recommend trying another HoT or two after the cast is done.

Comentario de Kinrael

Confirming that in 10.1 it drops from snails in Zaralek Caverns!

Comentario de Gaffa

Got my second one from Zaqali Djarin near the Zaralek Caverns world boss

Comentario de mouseno4

FYI - being a Dracthyr makes this utterly trivial to do.

Renewing Blaze provides you almost enough healing on it's own to survive the lava damage! To add to that, you have Obsidian Scales for further damage reduction!

But to make this even more trivial, switch over to Preservation, load up with the Stasis, Echo, Reversion, Dream Breath, Spiritbloom and if you want to guarantee a snooze-fest doing this, Time of Need talents. Stand at the edge of the lava, mark the snail, load yourself up with a Stasis, hit Dream Breath, wait for it's cooldown, Spiritbloom and Reversion, wait until ~15 seconds remain on Stasis (so it goes off automatically during your cast), then hit Dream Breath on single empower, Reversion and then Echo. Jump into the lava and hit Obsidian Scales and Renewing Blaze. Begin channeling the snail. You will have at least 3 hots on you, then half way through casting, you will get a full length Dream Breath, single empower Spiritbloom and a Reversion AGAIN.

So... you get the damage reduction of Obsidian Scales, the healing from Renewing Blaze, the healing from Reversion, Echo, Dream Breath. Absurdly easy.

How to farm

> Wait until Siege of Dragonbane Keep event is finished so all mobs are green/friendly in the area outside the keep around /way 26 70.6
> KIll all Lavaslurpers around the lava pools outside the keep (I avoided the Basalt Shell snails in this area as they become clickable weapons when they die so idk if they loot properly)
> Go up on the incline on the right hand side of the keep towards /way 21.73, 65.15, where the Obsidian Angler tuskarr guy is fishing in the lava pool
> Go down the hill and kill ALL Lavaslurpers and Basalt Shell snails along this lava river between the fishing guy and /way 22.71, 71.91. (these snails loot normally)
> Rinse and repeat

I got my first shell within 10-15 mins of farming this way and I've since looted many more to sell on the AH or give away to guildies :)

Comentario de flavioflow

As a fresh Augmentation Evoker (430 ilvl, 515k HP) I managed to grab it WITHOUT the toy. Popped all defensives, jump in right on top of it and began cast, enough time to get it and not die, as Empty Hourglass kicks in. Good luck!

Comentario de ScarletGlove

Mages:
If you don't have the toy Cuerno eterno de inmersión en lava, you can use Mirror Image for damage reduction. The lava will not damage the mirror images.
