WoW: It’s around here somewhere, maybe
We’ve been stuck doing the same instances for a while. It seemed like a good time to take a break, do some exploring, and track down the next instance ‘Mana Tombs’. Unfortunately, I made a small error and took us off on a goose chase. Surely you can see the similarity between the names ‘Terokkar Forest’ and ‘Blade’s Edge Mountains’. Even a non dyslexic can understand that mistake. Anyway, the instance ‘Mana Tombs’ is not in Blade’s Edge Mountains. I know that from experience, now. The closer we got to where I thought the instance was, the harder the surrounding mobs became. Eventually, I started thinking, “these guys are just too hard for the entrance of a level 63 instance.” A closer look at my research-maps showed my error. We turned around and headed the other direction.
We worked Mana Tombs, the one in Terokkar Forest, until we reached the first boss Pandemonius. Man that guy can put out some damage - I was chain healing Mark’s Warrior and couldn’t keep up.
Mike’s Mage ported us to Ogrimmar and we took a bat to Gadgetzan to explore the ‘Caverns of Time’ which I had never heard of. It was all new to us, and we had no idea what to expect when entering the ‘Escape from Durnholde Keep’ instance. It took us to Hillsbrad Foothills, seven years in the past, to help preserve, blah, blah, blah. I don’t know why. We were transformed into, not very attractive, humans, and given the task of helping some guy escape from the Keep. We poked around the entrance, but it was past our camping time, and we didn’t stay long.
An interesting evening. We collected around three bubbles of experience. Next time, back to work. I’m thinking Underbog.
