TenTonHammer's Guide to: The Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj

Welcome to TenTonHammer's guide to the 20 person raid side of Ahn'Qiraj. It is generally referred to as AQ20.

The Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj are an incredibly fun, fast small group raid instance. It is very easy to complete the entire instance (once you understand the strategies) in an evening. Many of the bosses introduce very interesting fight mechanics and are in general a lot of fun, while not being overly difficult. In addition there is some very nice loot drops. These combine to make what is one of the most fun instances in the game, in my opinion. This is definitely an instance that you want to spend some time in, Blizzard got this one just right.

We would like to thank everyone that has completed Ahn'Qiraj and posted comments and strategies on defeating it. I have used those strategies in several guilds raids and worked through the bosses using them. So while this guide is my writing it is the result of many players work. Many thanks to Visions of Anarchy and Bloodpack, my two main guilds for the effort going through AQ20.

Mists of Pandaria -- Pandaren Monk Striking Target Dummy

There have been many rumblings from Blizzard fans that don't really want Mists of Pandaria as the next (or any expansion) and ask the question "Why Mop?"

Mists of Pandaria's launch could happen by the end of the year so what better time to look at what the Collector's Edition could contain?

I finally got myself a Razor Naga (Molten Edition)!

About a year ago, I really wanted a naga mouse for my birthday. However, my girlfriend goes to BestBuy and the jerk working there tells her that I wouldn't like the naga because its too hard to push the buttons on the side. He told her to get me the World of Warcraft mouse (Cataclysm Edition).
