Please note this is for the Firday April 18th Questing. I simply made the mistake of not fixing the date when I copy/pasted the subject.
This week's questing:
Questers: Varda, Eonwë, Ereinion
Location: Hillsbrad Foothills, Altarac
Quests: Costly Menace, Preserving the Knowledge, Crushridge Bounty, Syndicate Assassins, Crushridge Bounty (Pt 2)
Upon meeting up, Varda's Fainan and Eonwë's Auros first went after the Mountain Lions and Hulking Mountain Lions. Thanks to Fainan's ability to track animals, we found what we needed quickly.
We then went straight to Alterac to get Knucklebones and the books from elite Ogres lvls 38-40. We did well, only dying a couple of times due to the aggro of an extra Ogre via the first one using flee on me. Once that problem was overcome, we fought our way across the ruins (carefully) and retrieved the worn leather book from the shelf of a boss Ogre. Fortunately, though there are several of these ogres in the area, they all spawn alone in their houses (except for the one in the keep). After procurring the book, we fought our way back towards where we came in, collecting the remaining knucklebones and books.
Once done, we left to go after the Syndicate. Coming a camp I knew of, we slew them there. Then we went East to come above Tarren Mill, finding another camp there. After slaying all of the Syndicate there, our task was done. However, catching a glimpse of Henchman Valik, we decided to get a close look. We killed him, and then returned to town, as it was already getting late and Varda had to go.
After Varda's departure, Eonwë went to complete more quests as he was growing close to 40. I decided to complete a quest from a guy in Southshore that sent me that way. Finding the two scouts near the Go-Shek Farm, I spoke with them, and the spoke to me of an Undead Courrier. I decided to seek this Courrier out and make it my primary target. After a bit of running up and down the road, I finally came upon the Courrier and her escort. The Courrier attacked me directly with no provocation, so I let loose with every Holy Ability I had in my arsenal, slaying the Courrier and claiming the letter she carried. Afterwards I turned my attention to the group, who I figured I would have little chance against. Killing one, the rest of the escort then got me, but my mission was already complete. I reclaimed by body and went back to the scouts. Now I had to escort one down into the farm guarded by orcs. The fight wasn't too bad and so after a while we made it down to the house in question, got what we needed, and ran out. I returned to Southshore victorious, but I wasn't 40 yet.
I decided to go back into Arathi to fight Warmongers for the secodn part of the Crushridge Bounty quest. After some time, Gil-Galad came into the area and joined me. We completed Preserving the Knowledge for him, recoving the worn leather book, and then we stuck around to kill off the last few Ogre Warmongers I had to kill. Once done, we made a run for town, turned in our quests, and Ereinion called it a night.
Really close to 40 now, I couldn't just log out, so I decided to give Stromgarde a try. Going in, I found the left side already wiped empty at the beginning, so I decided to investigate. Coming to the end, I was attacked by Marez Cowl, whom incidentally I needed to kill for a quest anyway. A druid in the area kindly healed and buffed me, and Marez went down for the count. I took her head as proof she was dealt with. I killed a bit more in the area, then went to turn in the quest. Now I was really close, so I went to get some Solid Stones from the Circle of Inner Binding. All it took was one Rumbling Exile, and I achieved my goal (and got a solid stone). Off I went to Stormwind, and spoke with the Dathorian Rall in the Cathedral of the Light. He granted me my faithful Warhorse, and that was it for me for the night.
