When my pallie hit level 63, I hooked up with one of our guildies, a level 70 lock and his felguard, to finish the last leg of the charger quest. And off we went to Strat, of course keyless, taking the long route to the Chapel.
We wiped twice in the process. It wasn’t exactly easy, but as long as we would not overaggro, all went fine. A good hour and a half later and I rode on my red glowing epic mount - a source of pride because despite me reaching level 60+ four months or so after the opening of the realm (and thus having plenty of pallies at level 70), not too many of them had bothered with Strat before closing on 70.
Tonight my lock buddy called, time to pay off my debts. He wants his dreadsteed, has all the mats. And so off we go to Scholo, full of delusions of this being a similar pushover - the lock, the felguard and my now level 68 self.
Pre TBC, I’ve actually been to Scholo only once. For some reason, my former guild would run Strat like there was no tomorrow, but Scholo only very rarely. I’m very familiar with Strath, I remembered barely nothing of Scholo. No keys either, no directions, no nothing.
And off we went to find our way back to the Lab I had visited just once so far. 5 wipes later (the lock aggroed the viewing room for extra fun), Ras Frostwhisper is dead and that part of the quest completed.
Well, where Stratholme was relatively easy, Scholo is damn tough. Granted, by all reports the alliance paladin mount is a lot harder to get than the blood elven one, but we sure didn’t expect the second-to-last step of the lock steed to be a major pain in the arse to duo.
After this experience we’re definitely going to hire some extra manpower for Dire Maul.
