The King of Scorchers is an incredibly difficult boss, firing flaming arrows that do a massive amount of damage, and could even instantly kill if you're ill-prepared. The King of Scorchers is the only boss to drop Fury Fire, an ingredient used to create a Flaming Fury. It can only be spawned in the Nether with the Infernal Flame.
The King of Scorchers has 2 methods of attacking a player; the first is where he will shoot fire balls rapidly at a player. These fireballs will do massive amounts of damage. The second method of his attack is that he will make it rain fireballs from the sky that will act as bombs. When stepped on, they will explode and cause damage as well as shoot the player into the air. The King of Scorchers can push a player onto one of the bombs against a player's will by shooting a fireball at the player. This makes the fight even more difficult.
Due to the boss's large amount of health and high damage output, it's not recommended to face him before first conquering Augite Depths.
A glitch currently exists in which the King of Scorchers may go invisible until despawning, rendering it extremely difficult—if not impossible—to defeat by normal means.
There is a chance that, if the King of Scorchers is suffocated to death in a wall, his drops may come out the other side. For example, if he is in a suffocation room, and he dies in a wall, his drops may fall out into the lava lake on the other side of the mountain, making you lose all of the drops.
Farming
A method to easily obtain Bluefire Stones is to dig out a 4x4x6 room and have a hole at the bottom. Spawn the boss through the hole and proceed to hammer away, as his eyes are near the top of his body, meaning that he can't see you or harm you. An infinite sword is recommended for this method, such as an Ender Sword. Watch out for mines!
