	8/2/2026 - Killed at level 40 on D0 raid solo as BST/MNK/ENC, looked like maxhit of 167, mostly (only?) doubles. Lava Breath landed a decent amount but I only had 126FR, did not seem to fully lose any buffs despite eating the AE a number of times but durations were low and several wore off shortly after despite only a 7min fight. Had to aggressively dance between Evasive while healing/tanking and then swap to Balanced to push the endurance regen while healing to swap back to Evasive ASAP. Slow resisted pretty rarely without resist debuff invocation, easily reapplied. Also note that Nagafen (and Yael? All raid bosses?) WILL IGNORE pets if a player is in range in terms of tanking.		8/2/2026 - Killed at level 40 on D0 raid solo as BST/MNK/ENC, looked like maxhit of 167, mostly (only?) doubles.

The voidling to begin the raid is right past the little gate where you fight the first fire giants, easily accessible via swimming up the lava river.

| description = Fire breathing boss of EverQuest (classic). Icon of the game. Appeared on the original box art and featured in the original promotional artwork.

The fire dragon Nagafen lives in exile from all dragonkind due to a plot with Lady Vox to create another prismatic dragon similar to Kerafyrm.

Lord Nagafen, along with [[Lady Vox]] and [[Phinigel Autropos]], is one of EverQuest's original three raid bosses. He resides in the very rear of [[Zone Nagafen's Lair|Nagafen's Lair]], guarded by the fire giants.

=== Strategy ===

The key to defeating him is avoiding the two special attacks he has: an Area Effect fire spell and an Area Effect fear spell. Fire and Magic Resists mean everything with this fellow.

Characters who are over level 52 cannot directly engage Nagafen in combat, as he will banish them from his lair upon gaining aggro. (implemented in the June 25th 2011 patch on P1999, and ~3 months after the release of Kunark on live).
