General Description
Region: Depths of Tyria
The Cathedral of Flames is a three-level dungeon. The temple was used by the Charr Shaman caste for various rituals. However, the cathedral has been overrun by the hostile spirits of those killed in Ascalon and who have become attached to the treasure plundered from the ruined region. The spirits and undead who have taken over are being controlled by a powerful Necromancer, Murakai.

Notes
- Wards are highly recommended, especially Ward Against Melee as the Enchanted weapon mobs apply a lot of melee pressure.
- The beware of fighting while in the range of the flame darts along the corridor leading to the final boss room - they will cause mass burning of the whole party as well as applying significant damage. Pull the mobs patrolling along the corridor to the side and fight them there.
- Also be careful of the flame jets and little flame geysers in the final boss room.
- Murakai uses two powerful monster spells, Murakai's Consumption like a much more powerful Feast of Corruption whose effect is in the area and Murakai's Call which allows her to summon 3 undead minions. Her lifestealing spell is a very powerful spike so it is recommended that you bring interrupt Heroes or henches who have very good reflexes. If your party is bunched up as Heroes and henchies do and you get hit with it, she will steal about 2/3s of everyone's health. She has very high armor or HP so will take a long time to down.
Since all her skills are spells, applying Daze will make her easier to fight.
- There are two Charr collectors just inside the dungeon who offer headpieces in exchange for a large number of the collectible drops.
- Lars Bridgeater asks for 25 Golden Rin Relics in exchange for a Dread Mask
- Dextarr Dirtdigger asks for 50 Diessa Chalices in exchange for a Blindfold.
