Instance raiding is not something the Bob had the opportunity to do on his rise to level 60.
The Deadmines were tackled late due to PuG's nose diving, when attempted early.
The Stockades involved a fair share of greed, and needed 3 attempts to complete. In fact one group of 4 in the stockades performed better when 1 member jumped ship half way through.
Shadowfang Keep, became a favourite haunt, and many attempts at group and solo have only resulted in 2 completions of this instance. The full bags of Greens and leather make for a satisfactory 30 mins.
This was the extent of the instance runs until the many trips in Scarlet Monastery, Uldaman, and Zul' Farak.
Sunken Temple quests were collected and dumped when a lack of interest, post TBC caused a disinterest for the higher level guildies. Only one quest was completed, which was the Hunter level 50 quest, which was like a badge of honour, and must be completed or else Bob was not complete. The Green Drakes was a gift of kindness from 2 high level friends.
In recent weeks Bob had a yearning to see what he missed, an aborted attempt in BRD resulted in a net collection of about 100 xp with no real understanding or completion of any quests. However when the call to arms, came to assist Flim, Rhienne and Fuzzy in their endless quest to the Outlands, Bob was portalled immediately to Stormwind and went in pursuit of the quests.
Jammal'an the prophet / Shadra Alor, The Hinterlands / The Atal'ai Exile
The exile is at the south end of Shadra Alor, the troll city in the center of the Hinterlands.
Quest chains
In search of the temple / Stormwind, Dwarf Quarter / Brohan Caskbelly
This chain sends you to the Hinterlands, to Feralas, back to the Hinterlands, back to Stormwind, and eventually to the Temple to collect items.
Muigin and Larion / Un'goro Crater / Muigin (horde has the same chain, but starts with Larion)
Starts in Un'goro, continues in Feralas, back to Ungoro, on to the temple. Do the Feralas stage at the same time you do the Caskbelly series Feralas step.
The prophecy of Mosh'aru / Steamwheedle Port / Yeh'kinya
You should have started this sequence when you did Zul'Farrak. If not, head back to Zul for tablet collection.
The Sunken Temple / Feathermoon Stronghold / Angelas Moonbreeze
This is a fairly short sequence. You might be able to skip the Feralas opener and just go directly to Marvon Rivetseeker in Tanaris due south of Gadgetzan. He sends you to Ratchet, then back to his camp, then on to the Temple.
The party had some worries about completing this Instance with only a 4 man party and a slightly unbalanced one at that. Level 54 - Hunter, Rogue, Druid, Level 67 Hunter. The major emphasis would be on Bobcat to Tank and Bob to hit hard and fast with DPS.
The addition of Ventrillo made organisation easier and besides some early teething problems we settled into a nice rhythm. Dragonkins aplenty were hitting the dirt and mana was being recovered during the lengthy process of Bob skinning the Dragons of their Rugged Leather and Dargonscales (Skinners Heaven).
Statues were activated, haze and tablets collected. The original plan was to complete the Instance in 2 attempts but progress was so swift that Eranikus was brutally murdered, Green Drakes were dispatched with a flourish, Jammal'an was left bereft of his head.
Hakkar was an interesting fight, but with a good set of instructions about working out of the corners and dousing the braziers, killing the guys trying to stop the summoning. All in all a very long but controlled fight. Much fun was had all round, and just enough time to hand in the quests and off to bed.
