AIE News

Community

Save the date - 10 pm to 11 pm server time, on April 28th, we are celebrating Volunteer Guard Day and we’ll be gathering in Orgrimmar to step into the shoes of a guard with a /salute and you’ll get to serve and protect the city just like them. Stay vigilant and watch out for any invaders. Pay attention to the AIE Discord #WoW and #General channels as well as the guild site for event times. There is reported to be a pet give away…. And other stuff.

Also, have you ever wanted to give someone some WoW Gametime, a little money for some Hearthstone cards, or just enough for them to buy Deckard Cain in Heroes of the storm but are just too busy to leave your house and hit the nearest shop for a game time card? Well, then Blizzard has some good news! You can now gift Blizzard balance directly to someone else who has a Battle.Net account, all without leaving your house and having to deal with people! Check out the article over at https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/blizzard/21707369/blizzard-balance-gifting-now-available

WoW

Ready Check Noise/Ham Horn - There are 17 Raid lockouts till Battle for Azeroth! Time to cross off all those bucket list items, get your Allied races leveled, plan for your Orc’s new posture thanks to the chiropractor, I mean barbershop, and drool over the sweet new hair styles with exclusive ‘glowy bits’ coming to the Alliance side allied races! (Boo!) But hey, we got the best Antlers in the house (Moo!)

The Battle for Lorderan is testable on the Alpha server (no voice overs or major spoiler cutscene available, yet) and shows what happens after the intro cinematic showing the two armies starting the battle. No word yet on Malfurion’s fumble fingers that started the fire in Teldrassil, but we’ll let you know when it’s available as well.

If you are leveling an allied race and don’t want to leave Pandaria at 90, good news, the XP from quests, gathering, and mob kills stays decent up to level 94, so no need to rush to Alternate Timeline Draenor, hang out in Pandaria, do the intro quest to Warlords, start your garrison, and you can head right over to Taledor without needing to deal with Frostfire or Gorgrond.

Also, if you haven’t run with Noob Raid, you haven’t gotten to enjoy events like this - https://clips.twitch.tv/SavageFunnyCobblerPanicBasket Shout out to Gijora, the magnificent b*****d that brilliantly executed the Mass Rez Cliff Jump taking the majority of the raid team to their death after the wipe.
