This is a first look at what to expect in the Hellfire Citadel, home of 4 brand new instance in the Burning Crusade. This article in particular looks at the second instance that you are likely to adventure through, the Blood Furnace in the Citadel.
The first boss you come across is The Maker, a very large angry looking Orc that carries allot of equipment strapped to his arms and back. The room he is in is a torture type lab with prison cells along the side and he looks almost mechanical in nature, and a bit like a Frankenstein creation. The whole scene works. Once his room is cleared and you start the fight with him you find out that he can hit hard, I mean REAL hard! The other really nasty ability he had is that he can mind control players and it did not seem to be dispellable. So all we had to do was DPS him down in between kiting our own MC'ed players and ensuring our tank had aggro so he couldn't kill our casters. All in all though he wasn't that bad.
