Attuning to Blackwing Lair
For this week's old world raid, BWL, you have to complete a quest to be able to gain entry into the instance.  It involves going through a 10 man instance, and we do not yet have a warlock in the raid to summon you in, so please complete this before raid time on Wednesday so we don't have to wait on people.

That is, unless the raid leader decides to just take us all to the "front door" of BWL, but that is inside UBRS, more than halfway through it.

Anyway, in Blackrock Mountain at 48,69 near the entrance to lower Blackrock Spire there is an orc mob named Scarshield Quartermaster.  He drops a letter called Blackhand's Command, which starts the quest Blackhand's Command.  To finish this quest, you need to make your way through the upper Blackrock Spire instance (no attunement necessary anymore, thank God) and kill the final boss, General Drakkisath. Now touch the orb behind him, which then activivates another orb outside the instance portal, called the Orb of Command, which you can then use to teleport into BWL.

I haven't done this yet, and will probably be looking to see if anyone wants to come get attuned with me tonight. 

That sounds vaguely dirty.

Thanks for posting this Sol. I'm pretty sure I"ve done it already, but will try to remember to check tomorrow night if my brain functions.

Re: Attuning to Blackwing Lair
So Chorty, Ess and I tried to do UBRS yesterday and got crazy lost.  Then we broke the instance.  I strongly recommend we find a lock to port us in tomorrow.

In case we don't, however, we should still try to attune.  I found a good floor-by-floor map (the ingame map is useless).  Also, FYI: DO NOT KILL GYTH TOO FAST.  He has to live long enough for Warchief Blackhand to spawn and engage you.  If you kill Gyth before Blackhand spawns, the gates to the next section will not open and you'll have to reset the instance.

LOL, you OP lvl 80 nubs. I would probably get lost in there again now too.
