This is one of the nonlinear dungeons in WotLK, and that it will require a flying mount to reach once WotLK goes live. You will also meet Brann Bronzebeard in this place, and that a fourth boss encounter can be found while doing "The Brann Rescue Mission". In terms of difficulty and level at this point, this will be the Sethekk Halls of WotLK.

The Maiden of Grief is basically just like the Maiden of Virtue from Karazhan. She has an AOE like disorient which is broken upon taking damage and she lays void zones on occasion; ideally the void zones are used to prevent being disoriented. She has a mana burn type ability and a semi-dot semi-direct damage ability as well. Kill her in less than a minute on heroic to obtain Good Grief.
Krystallus is almost exactly like Gruul. He does a shatter that has a knockback; it's possible to get knocked off the edge or into the small hole that serves as the exit so watch your placement. It's beneficial to constantly stay spread apart, but not necessary. Nothing else really special about this boss other than spacing and a decent amount of HP.
The Tribunal of Ages is essentially the event with Bronzebeard. Essentially it's a "Defend the X" type encounter in which you battle wave after wave of NPCs while dealing with traps constantly triggered from the walls. The first trap is multiple small direct damage spells on random players, the second is a slow moving AOE orb that will give a dispellable debuff increasing the damage taken by anyone having it, and the third is a beam creating a pulsing AOE zone that you can't stand in. The number of NPCs changes throughout the fight, increasing in variance and numbers until around the third trap is sprung, at which point construct type NPCs will come out. After completing the waves a chest appears and you can move on to fight Sjonnir. Fighting them at the entrance to the room is the ideal location; not letting Bronzebeard take any damage will also get you the achievement Brann Spankin' New.
Sjonnir the Ironshaper is a fairly simple boss. His primary damage is from his various nature abilities. He has a lightning shield and will pulse a lightning aoe that melee must run out of to avoid damage. At lower %s of health he casts this ability more frequently as well as other typical abilities that come with being enraged. He also summons some slimes as well which, when combined, do an AOE pulse that does fair amount of damage. Killing five of these "Iron Sludges" before he dies will get you the achievement Abuse the Ooze.

Edit : Changing this a little, I realize that this has been upvoted quite a lot, and the information is from a fairly early beta build; I wouldn't want anyone to be misinformed.

With the current state of paladins in the beta a paladin was able to solo (with a small amount of help from another dps) this whole instance

Just as a handy suggestion, particularly for heroic mode, during the "sanitization" phase of the Brann fight, stay AWAY from Brann! If the Searing Gaze targets you while you are near him, he will die. (He does respawn after about 5 minutes near the computer.)

Comment by Athene

You must have flying mount or be summoned to get to this instance, it's placed on a very high cliff that can't be overcome otherwise.

How do you get into hc mode?

Comment by loler

Event is impossible currently... atleast with +1.7k spellpower druid as healer.

Comment by Scotholemu

the rest of his group must have been dramatically overgeared.

This made me lol.

I healed this instance 3 times already the past 3 days on heroic with no problems, it's easy... your group just needs to pay attention to what's going on around them, almost did the achievement in blues and epics from 70. Except Bronzebeard got hit on last wave from a caster.

What reputation does this instance give, if any ?

Comment by Solann

I just completed the Brann Bronzebeard event on Heroic this evening as a Paladin with 1279 Spell Power / 30.6 Holy Crit / 224 in-combat MP5. We brought a Death Knight (tank), Rogue, Mage and Warrior (DPS).

It was difficult, but we also got the Brann Spankin' New achievement by tanking all the mobs inside the doorway up the stairs.

Comment by Arovei

Heroic:

I'm tempted to say that on heroic mode you definatly need some form of constant AoE... otherwise this is damn near impossible. Tried multiple times as a paladin with Beacon of Light, and just the mix of the shadowbombs, fire laser thing, and the huge waves made it very hard to keep everyone up.

Group makeup:
Druid (Tank)
Paladin (Healer)
Hunter
Rogue
Shaman (Enhance)

Our best AoE was Volley, and that just wasnt enough. Trying to keep everyone up when the laser lands right in the middle of the melee was a huge drain on mana.

My advice would be to make sure you bring ranged dps for this fight, or at least plenty of AoE. The faster the waves go down, the better your chances.

Comment by franzie

Couldn't beat it on heroic with a rogue, warrior tank, ele shaman, druid healer and fury warrior. After switching it up to warrior tank, balance druid, ret pali, holy priest, and rogue, we cleared it easily.

Tank the adds at the top of the stairs, with the ret pali spamming consecrate on the stairs. Save the aoe like Blizzard/Flamestrike or w/e you have for pulls with 6 adds. After avoiding lasers, the hardest part is picking up adds. If your tank is competent then it's easy mode. Really so long as you have an aoe class and the ability to focus on a target, there's no reason to fail at it. There's no need to stack your party with aoe... just one can make the difference.

It's stupid that Tribunal isn't on the boss list since you have to beat the event in order to access the room Sjonnir is in.

Comment by kumalo

Just healed this instance on regular as a level 75 resto shaman with a level 76 prot pally, was quite easy just too time consuming in my opinion.

Comment by 256789

I HAVE to make a comment on this on heroic, just to help out everyone who wiped, i created an account just to post this.

My group had wiped on the "defending" event like 3-4 times, we were pretty geared and were like no way can we do this unless full epics, until one wipe, the hunter in the group was the only one left alive and ran around for fun, all the mobs followed him and went under the beam that is constantly hitting us, and they died. I think that is how it is done, by using the beam to your advantage. Hope this helps.

Comment by 256924

The Event on heroic is actually really easy, aslong as your group dont consist of complete retards.

The group i ran with was, Prot warrior (me) holy priest, ret pally, arms warrior, hunter.

1 in the group had done the instance before, but failed miserably, the other 4 hadnt even done it in normal.

First time, we wiped at the last wave, because 1 of our DPS got hit by the "Increase damage by 100%" buff, at the same time he did his whirwind thingy = instagibb.

The second time, we cleared it, got the achivment for bronzebeard to take zero damage, and the priest had 40% mana left.

All that you need to worry about is the casters, but they are non elite, and stunnable, interuptable, and the most important thing SPELL REFLECT the chainlightning they cast. = Insane damage on them.

The last boss is dumb easy, just place 1 dps at each plattform, and 1 dps on boss. Make sure to dispell the Lightning shield from the boss, and also dispell the debuff he puts on us "Increase nature damage".

Comment by 203775

did the defend even easily on heroic...

then again we had a pally tank, resto shammy healer,..and for dps... Me (boomkin),and ele sham, and hunter...

Comment by 167903

The Chest Event on heroic was probably the easiest thing ever. I healed a group every reset so my buddy would get his Sword.

The first group we came with a.
1.Prot Paladin
2.Ret Paladin
3.Fury Warrior.
4.Frostfire spam spec mage.
5.Resto Druid(Me)

The strategy :

The prot Paladin tanks at the left side of the stairs. Getting all of the elite melee mobs with a constant consecrate. The mage helps AOE off the elites with blizzard.

The Ret paladin puts out a Consecrate on the right side of the stairs, grabbing the caster mobs and quickly killing them with the Fury Warrior.

I threw some HoTs on everyone and it was fine. The ret paladin healed the himself and Fury Warrior occasionally with a Art of War + Flash of Light proc. They were capable of killing the casters quick enough so the casters don't pull off a lot of damage. The Prot Paladin(With 24k hp) easily took down the elites with AOE with the mage.

The mage made a macro and called out the type of beam and who it's going to land on.( /rw Debuff Beam on %t, run! or /rw Lazer on %t Run!). Then we can easily avoid the beams and the tank/dps sometimes took a few thousand damage (1500 damage per tick inside the fire beam) and was healed with a HoT.

The tank didn't react fast. So the DPS had to pull the golems or a few dwarves off of me. But we did it with me at 20ish% mana(Didn't even pop a innvernate)

Best of luck to whoever is grinding for an item of some sort in there.

Comment by 44372

The event is virtually impossible on heroic difficulty. It is very very overtuned and will probably be changed. Even with the most excellent geared group I have only completed the event one time...and we still wiped at the end...but just in time to for brann to finish.

Warrior tanks definitely have an advantage here over paladins and druids with spell reflect...the chain lightning from the casters can hit for upwards of 8-9k and will easily 3 shot all but the very best geared tanks.

This one event makes it harder than any other 5 man on heroic in northrend. Best of luck for those trying to complete this instance.

Comment by 243048

The Bronzebeard event is way too hard on heroic. The adds come so fast it becomes nearly impossible to manage all of them, even as a paladin tank doing Cons constantly at the stairs they always get through. 6 adds at a time is too many, they should reduce it to about 4. The bosses are easy on heroic though, which indicates that the event probably wasn't meant to be this difficult.

Comment by Dubilas

Tried it last night. We couldn't pass the event.

Group comp was: prot warr (me), lock x 2, hunter and resto drood.

We did fine thru the firsts waves, but at the end, we had too many mobs alive, wich eventually wiped us. We tried AoE, single target kills, nothing worked out... Gonna try it again in a few days, I'll let you know...

Comment by 241444

While I don't believe the event is 'ridiculous' or 'extremely overtuned,' arrogant e-peen WoW attitudes have never helped anybody. Naxx10 gear qualifies you (romracer) as overgeared for Heroics - and for someone who spends so much time talking about BT, you should be the first person to realize BT is not a Heroic - it was a raid. By WotLK's standards, it was a Heroic raid.

As such, it makes little sense to compare the Brann event, an event which I'd like to add that produces no epics in and of itself, to the former be-all end-all dungeon of the last expansion.

What I do believe, in regards to this little shindig, is that it requires more than one plate-wearing AoE if you're at the gear level wherein doing this encounter is perhaps more than a badge to you. I tried it as my Frost-DK tank build and consistently had aggro-management issues (Death and Decay has a 30 second cooldown, Dark Command and 8 second, Death Grip a 35 second, Hungering Cold (assuming you even got it!) a 1 minute, Army of the Dead a 20 minute, et al) even with a good amount of AoE threat-gen. It wasn't until we replaced our warlock with an Unholy DK DPS that we succeeded, and we succeeded quickly.

What's important here, in my opinion, is your group's composition moreso than gear. I'm in basically nothing better than a few Heroic pieces and some Wyrmrest rep junk, which I guess would've contributed to my earlier failures, but literally as soon as we had another consistent AoE who could take a hit until my CDs finished, we won.

Comment by 268882

Had a perfect run up until the gauntlet event. Group composition was:

Tank: Frost DK
Heals: Paladin
DPS1: Hunter
DPS2: Rogue
DPS3: Feral Druid

We wiped three times near the end of the event where the laser beams start firing off and the golems start coming. Luckily for me the feral druid was a big help in picking up adds until I could grab threat on them, but by the time we got to the end bit we were completely overwhelmed with mobs. Seems, as above posters have said, that you almost have to have a specific group consisting of AOE DPS. Pretty frustrating event indeed.

Comment by 269542

Did this last night on heroics. Extremely tough event and final boss. Granted we all were not fully geared.

Group:
Dk (Blood) around 1400dps
Hunter 1600dps
Pally (Tank)
Rouge ~1100 dps
Holy Pally (healer)

Everything is pretty straight forward at the start until you get to the event. We wiped maybe 5-6 times. Healer took off and so we grabbed another Holly Pally. Trick is to always have the tank in front of everyone on the stairs. The mobs as they come down will rush onto the person in front and will hold aggro for a couple seconds until they have been picked up. Later on this is crucial becasue you will not be finished with the first group so tank will not be able to grab aggro as soon as they rush in. The laser is annoying just keep your eyes open and when you see it fire MOVE.

Last boss was fairly tough as well. We started out having me(DK) on the adds to the left and the Hunter take the right side adds. Did not work out so well. Then we tried me staying on the left and switched the rouge to take adds on the right side. This ended up working out. It was a pretty long fight with only two dps on the boss at all times. Pally eventually ran out of mana and the team wiped with the Boss at around 2% hp. He killed me but I respawned into a zombie and was able to take him out. Crazy finish.

Will never come back to this. lol

Comment by 103929

Completed the instance and event on heroic earlier this evening, it was hard on healing so be prepared to bring mana pots! The event is pretty testing, my holy priest has around 1500 spell power and all except one died before it completed! But, it is doable (nice dps wouldn't go amiss either) - I couldn't of imagined doing it without AoE healing though!

Anyway, hope this helps for the healers wondering they can manage it.

Comment by Voodoochild

This is where Rogues go to feel like a waste of space.

Comment by evilmegan

Did it on Heroic tonight with a:

Prot Warrior
Enhancement Shammy
Marksman Hunter
Destro Warlock
Resto Druid

We were a little light on the AoE and wiped at least 5 times.

The Searing Gaze on phase 3 CAN hit Brann. We were very close the second to last attempt and there was no one on him and we couldn't figure out what the hell killed him. So I (the druid) kept Brann targetted the entire time on our successful attempt. I noticed him taking a LOT of damage all of a sudden and saw the searing gaze just focusing on him. So I did what any good healer would do, start healing him. So after letting the prot warrior die, we finally succeeded. It was tough for our makeup, but doable.

Comment by 6736

Brann is a 3 phase event. It can be very challenging and will be tough to complete if you just hit 80 and have bad gear.

P1: Think Rajaxx in AQ20. Some elites, some not. They don't have that much hp. An aoe heavy group is very nice, but I have done it will full melee. The mobs are mostly all melee, with a few casters near the end.

P2: The waves continue. It is much more balanced between melee and caster mobs. Now there are big purple orbs to watch out for. They will charge up in front of the giant statue faces, then launch towards a target If you get hit with it you get a very nasty debuff (50% or 100% more damage taken, depending on difficulty) and it unleashes some AoE shadow damage. If the tank gets hit, it is basically game over. The debuff is magic, so it can be removed if you're quick.

P3: The waves continue. The orbs continue. There is now a giant laser beam that does solid damage, 500 a second or so. Stay out of it. Do not stand next to Brann as it will hurt him also. There are also Golem giants that come out. They do solid damage and have an AoE knockdown effect. While individually not that devastating, getting knocked down in a laser or while an orb is heading towards you is.

All ya gotta do is last about 3 more minutes once P3 hits. Once you hit the timer Brann ends the event for you.

Not too hard, eh?

Comment by 160952

It should be noted that there is only one item in here that you get from a quest INSIDE the dungeon for prot warriors. They are shoulders with quite a bit more DEF rating than the shoulders you get from the quest in Anhk'ahet.

Run this place once, and then stray far from it, because it's really boring...

Comment by Harazal

Did it last night on Heroic

Set up was

Protection warrior MT
Feral druid tank OT(me)
Fire mage
Ele shaman
Resto Shamn

First time, we all lived, but brann died under the lasers. Wiped two times after that. We did it on the fourth attempt.

Our biggest problem the first few times, was that the fire mage wasn't using his AOE attacks, and was trying to focus fire a single mob down each time. In the end, we threatened to walk unless he did it, and lo and behold, on the fourth attempt, we did it.

If you're not a super dooper raider group, then try taking two tanks, it'll ease pressure on everyone, and just have them popping all their CD's to stay alive.

A lot of fun ont he fourth attempt which everyone was doing what they were supposed to do, and high pressure as well!

Comment by 71213

Even with a great group, this event can prove to be relatively tuff. My guild and I have done this instance several times. One thing that works for us every time, is killing the adds with the "lightning" looking weapons before anything else. I'm not sure what ability they have, but killing them right off the bat helped us tremendously. Also, save your cooldowns until it's too overwhelming. All you have to do is live, you don't NEED to kill them all. When the npc is finished all the bad npc's will die. Also, I might be imagining things, but it appeared to me that everytime I have done this event, the npc's come out in a pattern.

For example:

Everytime, the first batch is on the left. Then right, then left, then right. The first "mini" boss guy comes from the right.

Anyways, I hope this helps.

Comment by 287595

Yesterday while doing the Heroic Brann Bronzebeard event, I discovered a really nifty trick. After each wave, The priest and I ate and drank, with the lasers you don't gain much but every second helps in obtaining much needed health and that extra mana boost, which really helps in the final wave of enemies, and allows the Healer or Mages to save their mana potions until the end. When we deployed this tactic for the first time, we succeeded and only lost one member.

The Team was this:

Prot Warrior (with some 70 epics still)
Arms/Fury Warrior
Hunter
Combat Rogue
Holy Priest

So try the tactic out, in between waves eat and drink

Gezz... not a single post about lore.

Is there any data in this place about the Titan-Earthen-Dwarf link? Anything like the Disk of Norgannon or its Keeper ?

Comment by Thundermoose

It seems to me that ranged AE is your best bet running through this instace quickly.

Me having a Druid, Rogue and a Hunter, found this to be, if not the, then one of the most annoying instaces on the Rogue. Hunter did fine and my druid did fine as Boomkin and resto.

Comment by AdmiralAliens

Only reason i do this as a fury warrior is for the blade of justice,otherwise I really hate this place..especially the libary events.

Comment by 175684

just completed HoS on heroic, brann event was 'eventless', as a prot warri with app. 20k armor, 25k life, 20% dodge, 18% parrying and block with lvl 187 blue equip. but judging from your other posts it was more the group composition, had 3 aoe classes: frostmage, hunter and warlock.
tried to tank in front of the stairs, thunderclap when mobs added, mage then casted blizzard, the other classes did their aoe thing - no problem. when the golems added just kept the aggro of those, other adds died in grp aoe.
for us it was easy as pie :)

Comment by 79126

Successfully completed this with the achievement as a feral druid tank. I found this to be the most challenging tanking encounter of any heroic so far. Adds spawn from both sides and you must be extremely fast in picking them up. They spawn far enough that you cannot stand in one place and hope to hit them - you must chase. Since ferals lack a 360 degree AOE ability, you have to constantly reposition to ensure that Swipe/Maul hit all the mobs.

Adds start off targeting Brann and running toward him. If any add breaks through, have one of your DPSers establish aggro until you can pick him up again. This helps for the achievement.

Comment by Mumpley

This is a subsection of Ulduar. One of the 4 Titan Vaults to exist on Azeroth. The others are Uldaman, Uldum, and Terramok inside Maraudon. Ancient Earthen slumbered in these vaults and in the process grew flesh. When they awoke they became the current Dwarves. The Modern Earthen, one of the first creations of the Titans, are sworn protectors of the Vaults and will stand at nothing for interlopers to access the Titan's Secrets. Recently however, Ulduar has been overrun by Loken,brother of Thorim, the oathful protector of Ulduar.

Now deep within the bowels of The Halls of Lightning, Volkhan, the Fire Giant, has been mass producing Iron Dwarves and unleashing them among Northrend under Loken's Command inorder to wage war against the Earthen and Mortals. General Bjarngrim and Sjonnir the Ironshaper appear as Loken's two most powerful Lieutenants ordered to watch over the Lesser Sects of Ulduar.

Comment by 314683

Tried this on two separate occasions as a priest.

The first time we all just stayed in the room and handled the mobs. The mix was 2 DKs, a pally, mage and priest. The DKs popped their anti magic bubbles and that seemed to defeat the lasers. Still got confusing at end but no wipe. Actually, its also pretty easy to target and heal Brann if you need to.

Second time tried it with a Druid tanking, two mages, thief and priest and could not pick up the mobs. Ended up losing target focus and not downing the mobs until it got ridiculous. As soon as the laser started hitting the party pretty much wiped. Several tries later still no go.

So suggestions:
1 - There needs to be a way to cut out the environment damage. Pally auras and DK anti magic stop the insanity so the party can concetrate on the mobs.
2 - May be better to stand near Brann so its easier to pick up mobs that get by - instead of trying to get them at the stairs and ending up chasing back to him anyway.
3 - Throw a few heals Branns way if he needs it.

Comment by 140598

One interesting tidbit: we wiped on the last phase, but no one released, so Brann managed to tank them long enough to finish the encounter. We all watched the scene after as corpses.

This was pretty fun as a feral tank. I used demo roar to pick the mobs up fairly easily at the stairs, then spammed swipe and glyphed maul to hold the fort. the challenge was simply the length of the encounter... our holy paladin healer severely out-geared the instance but had a hard time keeping up, and on the last wave, it proved too much. But we got away with it, because Brann held out by himself long enough for the event to finish.

Comment by Eyserith

I'm not sure why everyone is saying this is hard. The first time i went there we had a little issue with that event where mobs come at you Tribunal of Ages but then after the first wipe or 2 we owned it.

And you do not need an optimal group. I have tanked this heroic on my warlock -.- (but then again I tanked patchwerk with another lock so...)

Comment by 317544

Yes, an insanely hard HC. My tips to success are:

Tank at the BOTTOM of the stairs, where the pathway into the room narrows down
The tank should focus only at getting aggro ...no time for doing damage or putting up defenses (the mobs will also react late to threat, and often end up behind you, but keep staying faced against the room's entrance anyway)
Only use AoE-heavy DPSs, that fires off AoE damage blindly, while avoiding lasers
Find a healer with a strange eye-twitch, that doesn't make sense when he talks, and laughs a lot

In short, embrace chaos.

Comment by mjmill4

Trib Event Bugging...what to do (well, what worked for us):

Wiped on the Trib event today in H HoS...but the event finished just as we died. It bugged out where after releasing and coming back we could open the chest and loot (those of us who had not released) but we couldn't engage Brann so that he would open the door to Sjonnir. Instead of waiting 2+ hours for a GM we soft reset it (stayed outside the instance about 30 min., actually we went and cleared 3/4 of H HoL) and Brann will appear, ghostlike, outside Sjonnir's door. Some trash had respawned around the entrance, but other than that no problems.

For those who care, group comp was:

Prot Warr (me)
Holy Priest
Ele Shammy
Frost DPS DK
BM Hunter

All DPS was over 2k on recount, was really quick, a few of the group forgot about the "laser beams" in the encounter so it wiped...

Comment by 303207

You can not get in at lvl 71 so wowhead is wrong about lvl requirements for this

Comment by 424155

Ran into this bug today.

We lasted halfway through the 3rd phase of the event (with the laser beams & golems) and wiped, and everyone released. I'm guessing we were just 15 seconds or something away from completion though because when we zoned back in, the event was over, Brann was alive standing in the middle, and we could loot the chest for items + emblems.

But! None of us could talk to Brann, and he wouldn't run to the door to open it for us to fight Sjonnir. Everyone zoning out & back in didn't work either -- the event would "restart" but no mobs would come and nothing would happen other than us standing around getting hit by that small dmg thing.

Didn't bother GM ticketing cos we all know how long that takes.

Comment by 400772

soloing this place on normal mode is actually not a terrible way to farm gold; a full run got me about 200g and took about an hour. While 200g in an hour isn't terribly impressive, I'd suspect that simply clearing to and killing maiden and resetting the instances would result in better gold per hour, as the trash on the way to krystallus and and the bran related event trash don't drop any loot and ate up a considerable amount of time for a very small reward.
The main reason to farm this instance over another location is to get relics of ulduar, which generally sell quite well, while avoiding any of the usual competition with other people trying to farm them.

Comment by 365520

Although you can enter the lfg at 74-75, Do NOT until you are 77+. the bosses on normal are 79's so you will be a bad tank or dps.

Comment by 182187

Oh noes, not another Brann Bonzebeard bug... But at least this one seems to be fixable.

So, Brann bugged for my group tonight, even before the "third boss" event. Back at his landing zone inside HoS, we could talk to him, but he wouldn't budge, nor start the event at all. We tried zoning in-out, but that still didn't help.

The solution for us was to aggro some mobs from another place, kite them back to Brann, and thus making him engage in the fight. After it was over, he responded as intended to our chatter and began the event. Cookies were served at the end.

If you don't have epic flying or CW flying by level 77-80... stop wasting your money on the AH and go do dailies.

Things that are a waste of money before you get your riding skills/before level 80:

Buying gear on the Auction House that will be vastly inferior to stuff you pick up in heroics and dungeons.
Buying mats on the Auction House to level Jewelcrafting. At least on Norgannon (dear god what a racket...45g for a stack of iron ore...)
Paying money to level any other profession.
Buying food, gear, mats, or anything else for "guildies". Sure, some of them are new and they're so cute stumbling around the world in their horrible gear, but...You're 80 and you don't have a flying mount. Their gear is going to be CRAP until level 60 anyway. Don't waste your money.

You can also:

Vendor EVERYTHING you pick up that doesn't sell for exorbitant profit on the AH;
Farm leathers, herbs, ores, etc (if you were genius enough to pick two gathering professions) and sell that mess like it's going out of style.
Beg random strangers and friends for a nominal amount of money a few thousand times (I haven't actually tried this, but I hear it works)
(If level 70) ISLE OF QUEL'DANAS. GO, NOW.
(Else) The fishing and cooking dailies in Dalaran are pretty simple and usually give you a cute little amount of gold. (Also, in the Bag of Fishing Treasures, you sometimes get some odd little grey item you can vendor for around 10-20g, depending on the item.
Once again, stop wasting your money on stupid crap

Follow this simple guide, and you should have your epic flyer in no time, and you can stop glaring at people's hawt lookin mounts while seething in miserable envy. I hope this is helpful.

Level 80 without a flying mount: Don't let this happen to you.

Here's to hoping Blizzard does something to help those poor sobs that actually want the bosses that always get skipped.

Call me an achievement addict, but it's pretty pathetic that you can't get Heroic: Halls of Stone or Heroic: Ahn'kahet: The Old Kingdom nowadays since everyone says "I don't want anything to do with you people, I just want my two frost emblems so I can leave and get on with my business."
