Mechanar in two weeks?

I believe Nate suggested Coilfang next--the Steamvault wing we haven't done yet--but I just noticed that there's one Steamvault quest that is dependent on having done Mechanar first. Questgiver David Wayne won't give you the Underworld Loam quest for Steamvault until you've completed Fresh from the Mechanar.

The complication is that you need a flying mount to get into Mechanar. Now, something that Ryan had mentioned is wanting to take a Sunday to do some group quests, either instead of or in addition to a short instance. Maybe next Sunday we could do some group questing with an eye to giving our 69s that last extra nudge to the magic 70? We could also whip right through the first part of SLabs to steal Dot's codex and get her back on the Wayne chain :-)

What does everyone think?

Edit: Mechanar has only two quests. One is the aforementioned quest from Mr. Wayne. The other is How to Break Into the Arcatraz, the next-to-last quest in a long chain that leads to the Arcatraz key, which we're going to need anyway. Might be good to take care of this quest chain on Sunday.

  1. I'm game for any of that. In terms of group quests, there's a set of "kill these 3 Gronn" quest that's pretty easy to pick up and begins in the lower city once everyone hits 70.

    And as far as Mechanar goes, I'm already at "How to Break Into the Arcatraz" and just got the other quest from Batma... excuse me, "Mr. Wayne", today.

  2. Aw, thanks for the luv with that stupid Lexicon Demonica thing! I can't believe I missed the loot on that boss. Le sigh... Anyhoo, unfortunately I have another epic boss battle in the form of my first Physiology test coming up on the 11th (*geek*), so while I can do stuff for a bit this Sunday, the 8th is definitely out for me. Can we rain check Mechanar until the 15th, or do folks have Valentine's Day getaways planned?

  3. We don't have any sort of getaway planned for the weekend of 2/14-15, but we're going skiing the following weekend! Let's tentatively schedule Mechanar for 2/15 if everyone is a) around, and b) level 70.

    Good luck on the physiology test!

  4. Sounds good! I can still chill this Sunday for a lil' bit, and I just may ding 70 as well!

  5. Excellent, because I have a Super Bowl party this Sunday. I'm free the following Sunday, and Ami will be gone the following weekend of the 15th, so I will pretty much be playing that whole weekend.

  6. Apparently Super Bowl party starts at 4:30, so I'll probably still be on for a bit this Sunday, too.

  7. Excellent! I don't think we could have done that boss again without you!

  8. Crap! I'm sorry about today, guys. At first I was going to be merely late, and then I got roped into taking a friend to the airport.

  9. It's all good, BK. We will get the damned Lexicon Demonica next time - and at least now Liz is on it, too, so we'll all be on the same page. I think Liz and I are both out doing school things this weekend, but maybe we can try to get the Lexicon on the 15th and then do Mechanar afters?

  10. I think that sounds great. Good luck on the exam!
