Ashes of Tirisfal Rocks Onyxia and Hakkar
Lok’tar friends!
Yes, you heard right, Ashes of Tirisfal rocked two Old World raids late last night. We started out strong and got stronger as a few people logged on and we filled up a party-sized raid.
Ashes prepares for battle at the maw of Onyxia’s lair. Be afraid, dragon, be very afraid. From left, Flanksteak the Tauren Warrior; me, as Kor the Orc Death Knight; Grubs the Tauren Death Knight; Jaarka the Orc Hunter; NotTomBreaver the Ghoul, As-yet-unnamed Spirit Beast; Slig the Tauren Shaman.
Six minutes later, the proud guildies stood over the fallen corpse of the Black Dragon in victory!
Lok’tar Ogar! For the Horde!
Emboldened by our swift victory, Ashes decided to pay a trip to the Jungle Trolls of Zul’Gurub and make our presence known. Our wonderfully healy Shaman, Elder Sliggeh, had to depart. Something about Thrall I believe. But the rest of us pressed on and soon, the Priests and Priestesses fell before us and we stood, poised to destroy the vile Serpent God.
Without much ado, we promptly turned around and brought the pain. The result not unexpected.
While these may not be the freshest cabbage, the razor’s edge, or even interesting to anyone, it was the first time a lot of us had even seen these bosses and the official first kills for Ashes as a guild (despite some individuals having seen them downed before). And it was totally spur of the moment. A few of us got these fine things here:
Jaarka wrote about it too and you can read it here. Oh, one last thing. You and you. You’re on notice. Ashes comes for you!

Excellent! Great job guys, sorry to hear about no mount drops, maybe next time!

Sure, have all the fun whilst I’m on vacation. I’ve been to ZG just to kill the two bosses that drop mounts, but none of the others.
Trout…not one word out of you about mounts. :p

And grats. I don’t think it matters whether content is a crisp new lettuce leaf or a piece of pickled cabbage, it’s doing it and having fun that counts.
Also *mumble mumble* we still haven’t managed to take Onyxia down yet *mumble mumble*
I like the screenshot of you all standing in a row with a turtle in the middle – it looks weirdly incongruous, even though I know it’s a hunter pet. 4 dudes in spiky battle armour … and their tortoise…

Careful what you say about Turtle. Some particular hunter I know *cough*Jaarka*cough* tends to be a little defensive about it… Just sayin is all.
And thanks!

It’s not A turtle…it’s Turtle.

Congratz, but where’s the follow up posts, whatever they may be about, there will be a riot, if we don’t get our reading material soon!
