GAINING ENTRY TO HYJAL SUMMIT

To access the Battle for Mount Hyjal, you must first travel to the Caverns of Time in Tanaris and find Soridormi. Soridormi will offer the quest “The Vials of Eternity” to those who are at least Revered with the Keepers of Time. You can earn reputation with the Keepers of Time in the Old Hillsbrad Foothills and Black Morass dungeons in the Caverns of time.

Complete the quest "The Vials of Eternity" by defeating Kael'thas Sunstrider in Tempest Keep and Lady Vashj in Serpentshine Cavern and you will be attuned to the Battle for Mount Hyjal raid.

GAINING ENTRY TO THE BLACK TEMPLE

To earn a chance to face Illidan Stormrage, travel to Shadowmoon Valley and seek out Anchorite Ceyla at the Altar of Sha'tar (for the Aldor) or Arcanist Thelis at the Sanctum of the Stars (for the Scryers). Complete the following quests:

  1. Tablets of Baa'ri

  10. Akama's Promises
    • After completing "Akama's Promise", the quest chain continues inside the Serpentshrine Cavern raid instance in Coilfang Reservoir (Zangarmarsh). Look for Seer Olum after defeating Fathom-Lord Karathress to pick up the next quest.
  11. The Secret Compromised
  12. Ruse of the Ashtongue
  13. An Artifact From the Past
    • “An Artifact From the Past” requires entry into the Battle for Mount Hyjal raid. The attunement quest for that raid must be completed in order to gain entry to the Black Temple.
  14. The Hostage Soul
  15. Entry into the Black Temple
  16. A Distraction for Akama

Completing "A Distraction for Akama" will award you the Medallion of Karabor, which allows its wearer entry into the Black Temple.


The Betrayer awaits those foolish enough to face him. You are not prepared. . . .

      Burning Crusade Classic Arena Season 4 abruptly and unexpectedly ended a short while ago, and Blizzard are confirming that it's a bug and is being looked into.

      Looks like a bug. We’re investigating it.

      Update: the buff is now live on NA and EU servers as well!
      It's time for joy on TBC Classic servers, as the Joyous Journeys 50% extra XO buff has gone live on Oceanic servers. It was late Monday morning for that region when it went up so we should be seeing the buff arrive shortly to EU and then NA, but it's definitely coming today (Monday).
      The buff was said to arrive "at least 6-8 weeks" before WotLK Classic's launch, and we've already seen a leaked release date from the official site for September 26th, which is 1 week later, but it's now safe to say September is the target month at least.
      In any case, now is the time to level up those classes you may have wanted to try out for WotLK Classic!

      It's finally here! After an early launch on Oceanic realms the Joyous Journeys 50% XP buff has arrived to EU and NA servers! Now is the time to get those WotLK classes set up and ready for the new Classic, which also got its officialr release date today. 
      Prepare for #WrathClassic with a 50% XP boost.
