a fiery temple guardian  

Wurm meats are for anything good?

you saw a fiery guardian in HoT maybe
this is a westwing spawn

yellow to 60

AEs

Rain of molten lava (300 damage, all or nothing)
Wave of Heat (350 damage, can be partially resisted)

They throw a constant heat AE that hits for about 350 max, so buff fire. The problem for lead cleric (for the group that is holding mob's melee aggro) is that everyone is going down fairly fast, while the main tank is going down twice as fast. A 59+ cleric is murder on these guys. I use Celestial Elixar on the tanks to keep them in the safe range and then, when everyone in group is down @ 1000HP, the 58 AE heal. I even used a group complete heal once, with a good backup healer to prevent sudden deaths.

Lower level clerics are great too for groups that are not holding aggro. A 60 shaman makes it easy, too, slowing the guy. But druids and shamans just can't heal against these and the big ice wurms, who are similar but throw cold AE.

These drop a lot of plate, which seems harder to get than silk, chain, and leather.

Just want to add even with resists over 200, you will still take 400 dmg on the aoe every now and then, but you will take many more partial dmg and will out right resist this aoe with high fire resist.
