Gahlok on PvE PTR Server

Incomming 20 screenshots

I’m not sure if you say PvE PTR Server ~or~ PTR PvE Server. If I placed the wrong one in the title blame my poor english ;)

Last night I went to try the new Sunwell instance. This place is located in Eastern Kingdom, north of Eversong Woods. The idea of going to a PvE Server is mainly to avoid having to handle with stupid fights when you want to learn the instance —.—; For some reason I was experiencing some weird graphic glitches, tho.

Brief stop: some of the interface changed.

Keeping with the story…

I wouldn’t know if this would be on Live Servers as well, but at least on PTR as soon as you zone in you will encounter some NPCs over there and also some vendors (repairs and reagents).

Before I keep going; sadly very few of the guild I am made it thru the transfers before they shut it down for technical issues. With that being said, the raid was formed by like probably five or six different guilds, if I’m not wrong all those guilds were Hyjal/BT guilds.

The place itself is not “that” hard, but the trash is really annoying. BTW, some of my addons were also broken (mostly those that had to do with the Combat Log, since it got dramatically changed).

We had a couple of shots on the boss, but probably because of the huge downtime that we experienced (replacing people and such) maybe it was not the most ideal situation.

The fight is outside and you also get teleported inside, seems that the real boss is in there /shrug

As for the loot that we got, this is just part of it

I got the leather piece ;) I guess I’ll add more information as I go into PTR, maybe in a couple of days.

Edit: I totally forgot to say that the water change is retarded and bugged, please take it off; it’s going to slow down a ton raids —.—

    I found your blog via Google blog search while searching for World of Warcraft Downloads and your post regarding “[blog title]” looks very interesting to me and it is also very creative. I have a few world of warcraft websites of my own and I must say that your blog is really good. Keep up the great work on a really high class resource.

    The World of Warcraft to put it quite simply, is a game. It’s a very large game with a very large player base but it is nevertheless still a game, and when you get right down to it, it spans continents, races, ages and even worlds. There is nothing quite like it anywhere else although many others have tried. They haven’t failed, but they can’t exactly live up to the standards set by the World of Warcraft.

    This is admittedly one of their better moves, as fans of Warcraft, past and present will all rush to grab their very own Warcraft figures. To someone who has not played Warcraft before it might be bewildering to see so many grown men and women immersed in a fantasy where they have to go around looting, plundering and fighting.

    That post above is quite strange. . . But, great post Gahlon, the screen shots of the sunwell look sweet. Hey, btw, how do you sign up to play on test realms?

    I also got caught by the closing of the transfers due to “technical issues”. Any word on when patch 2.4 will be live?

    @Joel: Yeah, I’m thinking about marking that post as a spam. To play on test you have to transfer your main character by going to Account Management; there you’ll see what you have to do. Right now you can’t, tho, they stopped it because they are experiencing some issues.

    @WoW: No clue. My guess is probably in a month or two?

    Those JC patterns are nice and cheap. I’m definately excited for the new Sunwell. Hopefully my char will be up tonight or tomorrow to mess around with you guys.

    There is a dead Priest in one of your pics. Is there a constant wave of the enemies that you have to defend against? This would be awesome.

    We had one raid on the PTR (PvE) laggy as hell :P
    Sunwell will be cool, but it still seems like a bump in the road to the expansion.

    Much like the end of Naxx, all that work up to the expansion, then replace your gear with greens and blues hooray!
