The whole guild has been touring the world lately – well, when there’s fifty elders to visit and fifty coins to collect, there’s no time to sit still! Meanwhile, the cities are filled with the sounds of fireworks. Lunar Festival emissaries – and lots of fireworks – in Ironforge’s Mystic Ward. The revellers in Moonglade – Forsaken and dwarves dancing side by side. Ah, the power of a good party… I had to sneak this one in here – a shot of the Barrens taken while Reshiko and Siha were gamely braving the Horde guards to reach the Elder in the...

Originally posted by Pangur. Siha and I joined a raid group today out at Moonglade to take on the quest doggy Omen – hound of doooom! The quest for him was Elune’s Blessing. Click the thumbnails for full-size screenshots. The beast approaches… The battle begins. People died a lot thanks to the nasty AOE, but enough of us stayed alive to wear him down… Close encounter of the demon dog-breath kind… And eventually victory! The aftermath. The quest item was a red crystal inside Omen’s stomach, and the rewards were Elune’s Lantern, Lunar Festival Fireworks Pack, 3 x solid stone and 95 silver. Apparently xp for some people was close to 10 000, so not a bad quest and a lot of fun to boot...

What do you do when it’s a Friday night and you have a couple of handfuls of guildies and nothing to do? Zul’Gurub! That’s what you do. The first three bosses – High Priest Venoxis (Snake), High Priestess Jeklik (Bat) and the Bloodlord Mandokir – are all on farm status for us now, although it was a tough run tonight. A distinct lack of healer power will do that to you, it seems! However, we decided to go on and attempt Thekal, the tiger boss. I can see your house from here! In the distance lies Thekal, High Priest of the Tiger Aspect, and his two trollish minions. The few, the proud, the brave. Our ZG raiders get ready to take on Thekal. Hurry up and wait! All buffed up and nowhere to go – the raid just before launching our assault. Thekal pwned us, it must be said. But we got him down to a tiny sliver of health, perhaps 1%, with only two warriors and two priests in our raid – and none of us have ever seen him drop before. All in all, a good first...

Well, after months of slowly working our way through Molten Core, on Monday night we finally got to see Ragnaros himself. It’s a pretty spectacular event. Observing the battleground. The well-dressed elf to the right is Ushaia. Majordomo Executus summons his master, Ragnaros. (Not a wise move on his part, really, since Ragnaros is cranky and promptly squishes Executus.). Ragnaros is summoned! Note the teeny weeny little human in front of him… that would be Verlyna, our main tank. Ragnaros surveys the carnage. (There are 40 dead bodies out of the...
