Blizzcon 2010 Tickets are Coming!

Blizzcon 2010 Tickets are Coming!

Not much new information out this week, which could be a good or bad thing (I see it as a bit of a good thing since I was out of town the last few days), but what is good news is that Blizzcon Tickets sale dates have been announced!  So make sure you’re early to when the day starts and stay committed to your purchase, remember, plan a head!  If you think you MIGHT need 1 more ticket – be safe rather than sorry!

June 2nd and June 5th are the days to not leave your computer if you wish to get your hands on these lovely little gems.

I haven’t seen or heard what will be in the gift bags this year but I am hoping/dreaming it’s the following:

  • Another Costume (since I missed the Murloc one)
  • Another little Murloc Vanity Pet of a different color (like the little green plush Kwurky from Blizzcon 2009)
  • A Dragon Mount (Twilight?)
  • A…Murloc Mount?
  • A Variation of a Spectral Tiger Mount (the armor more detailed/colored)
  • A Murloc Motorcycle!
  • A Diablo styled Vanity Pet? (since Diablo III is coming out)

I can’t think of anything more just now but what about you guys?  I’d love to know what you think or wish to see!

On a side note, who plans on going?  I am already jealous hehe.  I had planned on going but other things have come up (not in a bad or emergency sense) so if you are the lucky ones to get tickets and go – keep me updated on all the fun things you’ve seen and done – not to mention purchased!

Happy Hunting!

Ruby Sanctum: Quest Lines

Ruby Sanctum: Quest Lines

Cataclysm is inching that much further as the days tick on.  Until the day it’s revealed when Cataclysm will be released, we can look forward to The Ruby Sanctum (but if you want to be surprised then don’t read below hehe).

QuestTrouble at Wyrmrest
Objective – Speak with Krasus at Wyrmrest Temple in Dragonblight.
Description
My old friend Krasus sends word of dire happenings at Wyrmrest, in Dragonblight. His missive was brief, but it seems that there has been some sort of attack on the Ruby Sanctum beneath the Temple.

Pressing business here in Dalaran keeps me from attending to the matter personally, but I have heard word of your exploits in the Lich King’s Citadel and you are doubtless up to the task — perhaps you could assist Krasus in my stead?

QuestAssault on the Sanctum
Objective – Investigate the Ruby Sanctum beneath Wyrmrest Temple.
Description
<race>, something terrible has transpired within the Ruby Sanctum beneath the Temple. The entry to the Sanctum is in ruins, and its guardians violently slain. We sent scouts to investigate, but they have not returned. I cannot help but fear the worst.

Enter the Ruby Sanctum and discover what has befallen the home of my flight. Once we have more information, we can plan our next steps accordingly.

QuestThe Twilight Destroyer
Objective – Defeat Halion and repel the invasion of the Ruby Sanctum.
RewardsEmblem of Frost x 5
Description
This was no reckless attack, but rather a carefully orchestrated strike against the heart of the Red Dragonflight. Zarithrian, on the bluff over there, is overseeing the assault, but the true leader of this force is a brash and powerful Twilight dragon named Halion. Not since Dargonax has a full-grown spawn of Sinestra’s twisted experiments been seen.

Slay him, <name>, and then when the invasion has been fully repelled, report to Krasus regarding all you have seen here. ” – Blizzard

I know I’ve said this before but for those who are new to reading, I am hoping that Ruby Sanctum will be like Obsidian in the respect of a mount drop.  I’m not sure of the mechanics of the fight myself (that’s something I want to keep as a surprise for myself) and if a mount could even be possible as it was with Obsidian Sanctum – but a Huntress can hope can’t she?  A Twilight Dragon….such a wonderful thought!

Happy Hunting!
