Location



Ragefire Chasm is located in the Cleft of Shadow, in the Horde capital city of Orgrimmar. The Instance portal leads underground and is highly noticeable, as it is dug directly into the cliff face.



Time



Ragefire Chasm is an extremely small instance and should take between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on party level and skill.



Levels



Ragefire Chasm is meant for a group with a rough average level of about 16, though 14 would be the lowest I would suggest and any characters over 18 would find the run rather dry on XP and loot.



The MOBs in the Ragefire Chasm range from 13 elite to 15 elite. The quest MOBs are up to 16 elite.



Map



We have put together a map that shows the layout of Ragefire Chasm and marks the location of the entire key named MOBs. The map can be found here:






Tactics



As it is the lowest level Instance in the game, Ragefire Chasm doesn't have much behind it in terms of being long, or having the best loot. This Instance is pretty much easy experience and a good introduction to the Instance system for those who are unfamiliar with it.



The group that you bring with you into the Chasm really shouldn't affect your ability to complete the Instance. As long as you have a good leveled batch of players, there is little to stop you in this Instance. Defiantly bring a healer along though, as you will need to make sure characters don't die. It's a long walk from the graveyard in Razor Hill back to the Cleft of Shadow.



Keep in mind that all the mobs in the Chasm are elite and much more powerful then your average mob. It will take teamwork to defeat these enemies, as is key with any Instance.



After some initial elemental mobs, you will be forced to fight the Troggs of the Instance. These mobs should give you little difficulty and are quite farmable for the relevant quest (Testing an Enemy's Strength). Once you fight your way up to the top of the western ledge of Troggs you will find the body of Maur Grimtoten who will allow you to complete another quest.



Upon dealing with the Troggs you can continue through the Instance to another batch of elemental mobs. These enemies are fairly easy if pulled in small groups of 1 to 2, once dealt with you can begin work on fighting the Searing Blade Cultists.



Be sure to kill as many of the cultists as possible if you are doing the “Power to Destroy” quest, as these mobs will drop the books required. These groups of mobs usually come in pulls of 2 to 3 mobs, and will require coordination to effectively deal with.



Once you’ve cleared your way to the massive demon standing in the middle of the lake of lava, you can engage one of the powerful bosses of this Instance; “Taragaman the Hungerer”. This “boss” is fairly easy to deal with, and once you have effectively engaged with a melee tank, DPS will bring him down quickly. Once killed be sure to loot the Heart to complete the quest.



Once you are finished battling against the demon, the next two targets will be the leaders of the Searing Blade; Bazzalan, and Jergosh the Invoker. Jergosh is located just ahead of where Taragaman was, while Bazzalan is located up the adjacent walkway, right above Jergosh.



Both of these mobs are straightforward fights as long as you do not drag any additional enemies into the fray. Once they are slain, the Instance is effectively over and you can return to the entrance!



Party Composition



As this is still a very low level instance, party composition does not play a huge factor. The bigger factor will be player levels. You need to ensure that you have at least a one player at the upper end of the level range to help out against the named MOBs.



As in any group you will want someone in the party that can heal (even an alt-healer) and someone who can tank. Other than that though, unless you are very low on the level scale you should be ok with almost anything. Tactics and player ability with their characters come into play far more at this early stage in the game (and in such a small instance) that party composition does in the late game (55+).
