Re: Fire Festival
it's in a few weeks iirc, and will do. You can also get the regular spirit of summer pet too.

Re: Fire Festival
I am very excited for this festival since we'll finally be able to utilize the new LFD tool for the holiday boss. No more searching endlessly for groups and then worrying of having one of those "Oh oops I guess I already did it today LOL." people.

Re: Fire Festival
I've got my little red whisp pet, and I can haz the tabard this year?..I've never actually fought this boss, so it should be great fun. I don't actually need the pet drop though, seeing as I have all the NCP achieves...But i'm a collector, so I feel almost obliged to try for it!

Re: Fire Festival
He's in the Slave Pens or one of those Coilfang instances anyway. A'hune is the name, if i'm correct?

Re: Fire Festival
Ahune...Lord of Frost is in BOTH versions of Slave Pens.
In reg SP, you needed to have access to a daily to fight him (no longer true) and if you wiped it was a wasted daily
In roic SP, Ahune could be fought w/out a daily, and if you wiped you could try again. However you only got 1 shot.
He's known for his enchanting recipe, his pet scorchling (a baby firey voidwalker), and his scythe. (These items will NOT drop from Ahune anymore...they will now drop from a goodie bag you recieve on your first successful Ahune kill each day....dunno if it has to be a random run to get the bag to drop or not)
With this change, you can fight him as many times as you like, but you can only get 1 chance at rare drops like the pet per day (though you no longer hafta roll for em)

Re: Fire Festival
Ooooh! I can not wait until the this gets here! It is my last achievment for my purple proto drake! Ahh! I am so excited!
I only missed getting it last year because of the Winter one...I had the bad luck with it.

Re: Fire Festival
Third try to get my scorchling... I really hope it happens this year. The whole goody bag thing is annoying to think about as I'm used to the "farm with as many alts as possible" tactic.

Re: Fire Festival
Can you actually do normal and hard modes this year, or does the bag really only drop once a day? In that case it makes 2 attempts pointless... -_-
Update: I flew over and went to check the Slave Pens on normal mode and it was just the leftover dungeon of what I had attempted previously when using the group finder to kill A'hune, even though that version had been a heroic with a level 80 boss. I exited, reset all instances and upon entering all the mobs were there. When I made it to A'hune's room it was just full of the usual mobs, no giant ice blocks or npcs! After fighting A'hune previously I had noticed how it had made that area and the entrance area complete devoid of normal mobs... so it seems you get ported to a special version of the dungeon and that is the only method you can use to get there.
The daily achievment notice when you do a heroic once a day is basically what you get for killing A'hune. That achievement bar pops up, music plays and you get a 'Satchel of Chilled Good' in your bags.

Re: Fire Festival
Only one mode and only one bag a day.
At least you can farm for cloaks.

Re: Fire Festival
Yes sad to say it seems to be official now. On the Eu forums they said something like "We can't say if it will be obtainable or not in any form in the future,but we'd love your opinions on it." Some people were saying it was still dropping,but it seems to have been a super rare bug. I ran it about 20 times today to check and met up with a warrior hunting for a cloak on his 35 time around and said he had not seen any scorchling.

Re: Fire Festival
That sucks sooo hard I hate it when they take something away like that without warning. Especially with something like this that takes a whole year of waiting. With all the other holiday pets they made is easier to get, I'm not sure why they didn't do it with the scorchling.
