GAH

I've been lax in my updates lately and I apologize for that. I've already skipped two holidays and have put little to no work into the guide for the next two holidays (Pilgrim's Bounty and Feast of Winter Veil), but I'm hoping to put in enough time on my day's off to actually get the previous two guides done as well as get the new two guides up as well. I doubt I'll have either of them done at the beginning of either holiday, but I'm pushing to have them done before the holidays are over.

I've got a few bits left of the Brewfest guide to complete and then I can put that guide up, as well as the post guide to my completions. I need to do the Hallow's End one still as well, but that one won't be too difficult to pull together. The Day of the Dead guide should go up shortly after that, even though it's had a little bit of changes made to it (that pet is finally permanent!), but nothing that should take more than a few minutes to throw together.

I also have two more posts in the works that are little different from my normal kinds of posts. One is about the information released at Blizzcon about Warlords of Draenor, while the other is something completely different altogether that kinda ties into my other guides a little. I might put that one on hold though until I've done a little more in-game work with what it's related to, we'll have to wait and see on that one.

I'm also starting work on a League of Legends blog. I'll be sure to edit this post to include a link to it once I'm ready to show it off. It's not ready yet and I don't want to start sending people over there until I have something to show off. It's a pretty special kind of blog and I'm hoping that the ideas I spew in words over there are interesting and fun for people to think about it. It's going to be pretty cool. Stay tuned!

Pirate's Day '13


Pirate's Day was originally introduced into the game back in 2008, to commemorate International Talk Like  A Pirate Day, or ITLAPD. This holiday always lands on September 19th, as that's the real date of the out-of-game holiday.

The holiday itself is short and sweet. It only lasts a day, it only has one achievement, and you really only have to do a single thing. Since there is so little to do for this holiday, I'm going to attempt to fill this blog post with other trivial information so that it lasts longer than a couple paragraphs.

First off, no. I'm not going to type this up in Pirate-ese. That's not happening. I don't celebrate this parodic holiday, so I'm not going to participate, even with the written word. Now that that's done..

Your one and only destination for this holiday is quite obvious.. We're going to Booty Bay!
When you enter Booty Bay, point yourself toward the building housing the bank and land on the roof. During Pirate's Day, the roof will be covered in Dread Crew who will be launching fireworks, but they aren't your target. You'll looking for Dread Captain DeMeza, the Scourge of the South Seas.

When you speak with DeMeza, you have the option to have a drink with her. Once selected, you'll receive the Dread Corsair buff and be transformed into a pirate. This buff persists through death, mounting up, and while logged out, but it does not persist through shapeshifting.. Sorry druids. There are some other strange instances where the buff will randomly remove itself, but since the holiday is only a day long, I don't have the time to test them all out and get back to you before it's all over. If you lose the buff at any time, you can just talk to the commoners in capital cities for a 1 hour replacement. No need to head back to Booty Bay.

There are three other named NPCs nearby. Let's talk about them before I throw the only achievement for this holiday up here and bring this blog post to a close..

First Mate Hapana is DeMeza's first mate, as his name suggests, with his assault parrot, Nyuni. He can be interacted with, but he only shoos you away to talk to DeMeza, so he's not very social. He offers no other dialogue options or buffs. An interesting thing to note is that he apparently has a tattoo on one arm with the word "MAGATHA" in a heart. Hapana Grimtotem? A past love of Magatha Grimtotem? The world will never know..

Cap'n Slappy is the in-game representation of one of the men behind the ITLAPD, Mark Summers. The date for ITLAPD was picked so that Summers could easily remember the date, which was his ex-wife's birthday. He informs you of how he and Chumbucket created the holiday, but DeMeza took off with it.

Ol' Chumbucket is the in-game representation of the other man behind ITALPD, John Baur. Baur has appeared on the television show Wife Swap, as well as an episode of Jeopardy!. He tells that today belongs to DeMeza and her crew and looking like a pirate is only half the celebration, talking like one is the other.

As of now, there is currently no plans to implement anything new to this holiday, so here's your one and only achievement!

The Captain's Booty: Head to Booty Bay and share a drink with Dread Captain DeMeza during the Pirate's Day celebration.

Harvest Festival '13

Here's another holiday that I've never actually written about in the many years that I've (barely) been running this blog. The Harvest Festival! This holiday was originally the anniversary of the US stress test in 2004. It was not implemented for 2005, but it returned in 2006 as the in-game representation of Canada's Thanksgiving, the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival, or the Korean Chuseok. The 2013 Harvest Festival falls between September 12th through the 20th.

Unique to the Harvest Festival is the exclusion of any achievements. There is no other in-game holiday event that has no achievements. Even the holidays that are a day, or two days, long have achievements associated with them.

The Harvest Festival only has a single quest to do, for either faction.
  1. Honoring A Hero: Speak to Wagner Hammerstrike outside of the gates of Ironforge. The point of this quest is to head north to the Western Plaguelands and place Uther's Tribute (different for each race) at Uther's Tomb, west of Chillwind Camp. The immediate quest reward is For the Light!. This item is not soulbound, so it can be traded amongst your alts, to the Horde side, or even traded on the Auction House.
  1. Honoring A Hero: Speak to Javnir Nashak outside of the gates of Orgrimmar. The point of this quest is to head north into Ashenvale and place Grom's Tribute (different for each race) at the Monument to Grom Hellscream, inside Demonfall Canyon. The immediate quest reward is The Horde's Hellscream. This item is not soulbound, so it can be traded amongst your alts, to the Alliance side, or even traded on the Auction House.
    • Bounty of the Harvest: This reward will come in the mail a few days following your completion of the quest. This item conjures up 4 Harvest Bread on a 12 hour cooldown. I have yet to find an exact time frame for its delivery, but I will continue to look and update with that information.
With that simple quest out of the way, the only other things to keep your interest in this holiday comes from the multiple banquet tables laid out in front of both Ironforge and Orgrimmar. These tables have four different items on them that the player has the opportunity to react with to gain consumables; Harvest Boar, Harvest Fish, Harvest Fruit, and Harvest Nectar.

  1. The boar yields Harvest Boar.
  2. The fish-platter yields Harvest Fish.
  3. The fruit bowl yields Harvest Fruit.
  4. The mug yields Harvest Nectar.

Once you've collected your mass amounts of good and paid your tributes to your faction's hero, there's only one thing left to do. Buy fireworks! Wagner and Javnir are your vendors, and their prices are susceptible to faction discounts.
Since there are no bosses, mounts, pets, or achievements to be had from the Harvest Festival, that's the end of this guide. Hope you have fun and enjoy your time stuffing your face on all of the bounties of the harvest. Also, there will be no follow-up to this holiday like there normally is, as I have nothing to follow-up on. Do you REALLY want to know whether I went out and collected a book a bunch of times and got a cornucopia on a bunch of toons? Come on now, be serious.

Astounding

It's been almost two months since I've made a blog post and.. Nope, not sorry. Can you blame me? Between the beginning of July and the middle of September, there are no in-game holidays!

Here's a little update though that I'm sure you'll be pleased to hear..

I've got the next few holiday guides already set up and waiting for when their respective holidays roll around. So there won't be any waiting this time. I'm going to release each guide probably a day or two in advance of the holiday, so that'll give you guys time to read up and see if there's anything new added into the game with the available information. Once the holidays go live in-game, I'll be sure to make any necessary updates to each guide as soon as possible so that the information stays current and you aren't left in the dust!

Sadly though, I don't have any game time, so I won't be able to actively participate in any of the coming holidays (unless of course I get time between now and then.)

I did make a trial account on a different e-mail address so I can still mess around in-game, but not being able to get past level 20 makes it almost impossible to get anything done in relation to the holidays.. Or anything else really.

Well, there's your update. I'm not dead. Be astounded.

Post-MFF'13


Since there were little to no changes, again, made to this holiday, I was about to completely skip out on doing any of the event again. Near the end of the holiday though, I knocked out the Pandarian flames on Paragon, Railene, and Laviana. I used Xardion to gather up the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor flames to push him into his next level, and then logged on to the Horde Paladin and cleared out all of the bonfires but Vash'jir, Deepholm, and Pandaria due to level restrictions and blocks, she also gained 3 levels off of it, so it was a pretty solid undertaking with awesome rewards!

Railene: Flame Warden of '09. Honored and Desecrated Northrend and Cataclysm in '12. Honored and Desecrated Pandaria in '13.

Midsummer Fire Festival '13

Despite having this blog for multiple years and basically only posting about the holiday events that occur in World of Warcraft, I have yet to actually successfully update with a Midsummer Fire Festival guide. That all changes this year. I also completely failed at getting the guide put together before the holiday was practically over, but with this guide now built that means that next year will be finished beforehand!

The Midsummer Fire Festival starts on the real world date of the northern summer solstice. This year the events runs from June 21st through July 5th. Much like the Lunar Festival back in January, the Midsummer Fire Festival necessitates tons of travel time to get through all of the achievements, as you travel around the multiple continents (even Pandaria included now) to honor your faction's flags and desecrate those of the opposite faction. All the while gaining Burning Blossom, which is this holiday's currency.

The Burning Blossom also have a secondary function that I'd like to go over here before we get into anything else. If you use a Burning Blossom near a festival fire, all surrounding players will gain the Fire Festival Fury buff, which scales with your level. And if you happen upon a bonfire that's been desecrated and use a Burning Blossom on it, you will activate the zone-wide buff of Bonfire's Blessing, which scales by 10 per level.

The Midsummer Fire Festival also comes with a holiday boss; The Frost Lord, Ahune. His loot tables have already been updated this year to include level 90, item level 480 epic cloaks. He also has some other drops that we will get into later on when we get to the Ahune section of the guide. Until then, we're going to start with the holiday quests!

There are some bread crumb quests that will lead you to some festival camps outside of the capital cities, as well as bread crumbs that lead to the camps located inside the capitals. We'll start off with the quests located outside of the cities.
  1. The Master of Summer Lore/The Spinner of Summer Tales: The true bread crumb quest. All capital cities will have commoners who will send you on your way to the Fire Festival Camps outside of the capital cities. These quests are mostly for flavor to announce the beginning of the Festival, but you do get a Burning Blossom out of it.
  2. Incense for the Summer Scorchlings/Incense for the Summer Scorchlings: You will be given some Summer Incense and told to drop it off at the nearby Summer Scorchling. Be sure to stick around for a bit after turning it in and collecting your Burning Blossom, as there is a small little scene involving the Scorchling.
    • Now that you're done with the quests at the Festival Camps outside of the city, it's time to speed on inside of the capital itself and head to the Festival Bonfire.
      • Stormwind: To the left of Stormwind Stockades and past the cooking daily.
      • Ironforge: At the entrance to the Hall of Explorers.
      • Darnassus: Inside the Warrior's Terrace on the way inside from Teldrassil.
      • Exodar: On the right side of the Crystal Halls.
      • Orgrimmar: Up past the flight master on the Valley of Wisdom.
      • Thunder Bluff: On the edge of the Spirit Rise, near the zeppelin dock.
      • Undercity: Just inside the Ruins of Lordaeron.
      • Silvermoon City: Inside the Court of the Sun, near the fountain before the Sunfury Spire.
  1. Torch Tossing/Torch Tossing: The Master Flame Eater of your respective faction will offer up this quest near the bonfire. You will need to use Practice Torches and throw them at the targeted brazier nearby. It is very simple and you don't always have to land the torch directly on the brazier, either, which makes it slightly easier for those with slower reaction times.
  2. Torch Catching/Torch Catching: The Master Flame Eater of your respective faction will also offer up this quest. You will need to throw one of the Unlit Torches and follow it's shadow to toss it up again. This quest, and subsequent daily, can be very irritating due to other people, lag, or having some of your graphic settings on lower values, adjust according and even switch cities if necessary to complete. Knocking out this quest will open up its daily, as well as reward you with x5 Juggling Torch which will come in handy later.
With the little quests unlocked and those two dailies unlocked, it's time to complete and unlock the other daily, as well as delve into the holiday boss fight information. First off, since you're still in your capital city near the bonfire, I think it's time to mention the ribbon pole. At every bonfire, you will find the ribbon pole, which your character will twirl around. Doing so grants you the Ribbon Dance buff, which stacks every 3 seconds to a total of a 1 hour buff. This buff stacks with rested experience as well.

Now it's time to speak to the Earthen Ring Elder! (If you're tracking Low Level Quests, you'll see this bad boy, if you aren't tracking it.. Well.. Surprise?!)
  1. Unusual Activity: Get your Totemic Beacon from the Elder and head out for Ashenvale. You're going to the Zoram Strand, in the very north-western corner of the Ashenvale map. Your mission is to kill Twilight Cultists until you get your hands on the Twilight Correspondence. With it in hand, use the Totemic Beacon to summon the Earthen Ring Guide, who will continue your quest.
  2. An Innocent Disguise: Use the given Orb of the Crawler to spy on Ice Caller Briatha and company, on the banks of the Zoram Strand, further along than where you killed cultists for the Twilight Correspondence.
  3. Inform the Elder: Head back to an Earthen Ring Elder at a capital city to complete the questline. There used to be a few more quests, but they were removed with the introduction of the LFD and queue system. Finishing this series of quests opens another set of dailies which all reward x10 Burning Blossom  these will depend on your level, much like the Love is in the Air dailies:
With all of those quests finished, it's time to throw down against the holiday boss; The Frost Lord Ahune. Before you we go any further, please note that you need to be level 89-90 to even access this boss. Not there? Either level quickly or try again next year. You can either queue through the LFD UI by selecting Frost Lord Ahune in the drop-down menu option, or you can speak with any Earthen Ring Elder to be queued up as well. Making a trip out to the Slave Pens will not spawn the boss.
  1. Emerged Phase (Phase 1): When dealing with this stage (hopefully not too many times), you are not able to directly assault Ahune. You have to deal with his adds and dodge ice spikes. He spawns three separate adds each emerged phase, two of which constantly spawn.
    • Lord Ahune
      • Ahune's Shield: This cannot be broken through any means by the player.
      • Cold Slap: When a player gets too close to Ahune, he will use this ability, launching them back away from him, dealing damage and fall damage. Stay off the ice and you should be fine. Amusingly, you will receive a Snowball in your bags every time you get hit by this ability.
      • Ice Spear: Ahune casts this under the feet of a random player. If they don't move in time, they will get launched into the air and sustain fall damage, unless they move or prevent the damage through abilities.
    • Ahunite Hailstone - Focus this add.
      • Chilling Aura: This ability can cause upwards of 60% of the total damage done for the fight. These adds need to be focused immediately once the tank has aggro.
      • Pulverize: As long as the tank has aggro, this ability should not be an issue.
    • Ahunite Coldwave - Requires little attention.
      • Bitter Blast: Let the tank get aggro to avoid taking damage from this, or simply burn them as soon as they spawn.
    • Ahunite Frostwind - Requires little attention.
      • Lightning Shield: Works the same way as a Shaman's own ability. Let the tank take the hits to avoid taking extra damage, or burn it down as soon as it spawns.
      • Wind Buffet: One of the most annoying spells in existence for anyone with a cast bar.
  2. Core Phase (Phase 2)
    • Frozen Core - Ahune submerges into this state.
      • Ahune's Shield fades, Cold Slap and Ice Spear are disabled, and there are no adds that spawn. Ignore the ones that are up, if there are any, when he submerges. Blow your cooldowns and burn him. If you don't strike him down in one attempt, he will re-emerge after 30 seconds and you will have to repeat Phase 1.
  3. Satchel of Chilled Goods - Only available on your first kill per day.
  4. Ice Chest (Loot Phase)
      1. Shards of Ahune: You get to pick between one of the two available tabards.
        • Tabard of Summer Skies
        • Tabard of Summer Flames
        • If you wish to acquire both tabards, there is a simple method in which to do so. Simply place the tabard of your choice into your Void Storage. Speak with a Tabard Vendor and select the opposite choice as the one you lost to have both.
Now that we've gone over the basic quests and tore apart Ahune and his minions, it's time to dig into the real meat of this holiday. Much like the Lunar Festival, the Midsummer Fire Festival requires quite a bit of traveling to make sure you get your hands on enough Burning Blossom to be able to purchase all the necessities to complete all of the achievements and get the vanity items. Your job is to traverse the Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, Northrend, the Outlands, and now Pandaria to honor and desecrate the bonfires.

There are a total of 110 Bonfires to locate and collect and honor/desecrate. Please note that most of these are not in an order for fastest completion or ease of travel. I will eventually create a "travel guide" for both Lunar Festival and the Midsummer Fire Festival.

      And now for the special bit at the end that needs to be added to appease the pet battlers amongst you.

      Post-CW'13


      When Children's Week came out, I looked at it. I saw that there were no updates, despite Pandaria being a perfect location for the addition of more orphans, and just sighed and left it at that. Looking at the aftermath, I guess I should have at least touched on some of the quests to at least net me some more achievements on my alts, but all in all, no loss.
