Lord Athune

HolyWarrior and EvilBastard have both completed all of the Midsummer Festival Quests except the final chain to face Lord Athune in Slave Pens.

On Sunday afternoon EB and TiceNits' hunter got into a Heroic Slave Pens with some guildies.

EB handed in the quest to the Earthen Ring rep dude just inside the entrance but did not get any follow ups. Wierd. We proceeded to where Ahune hangs out and there was no quest there. Oh well, we had a pop at him but over whelmed by the adds so we decided to skip it, finish the run then come back on normal mode. TiceNits switched onto her main mage and we wiped the place out, EB getting the 2 explorer dudes for Lost in Action in the process.

An easy clear later and we set it to normal, got TiceNits' hunter back on and went back in. This time the Eartern Ring dude had the follow up quest so I took it and we went onto Ahune's room.

This time we wiped the floor with him. 4 times! Normal mode everyone can summon him once and you don't have to reset the instance which apparently you do have to do on Heroic. He dropped some nice gear and you get 12 gold just for summoning him.

And of course once you kill him and loot his ice core or whatever it is then you get to hand it in for a cool Summer Festival Tabard.

The Heroic boss killing gave EB another 3 badges too bringing his total up to 107. Sounds like an opportunity to go shopping. I must figure out a gear upgrade path for him.
