Alright so, I’m the GM of a guild on Moon Guard called <I N T R O V E R T>. After some irl stuff going down, my Off Tank has quit wow for an undetermined amount of time. This puts me in a hard place because we’re a progressing raid group.

We’re Technically 7/7 Normal (don’t have the achievement because one of our dps had to get on her monk tank that was on a different server therefore we lost our guild group thing) and 1/7 Heroic Highmaul.

Our Raid times are Wednesday/Friday from 7-10pm server (CST), with Saturdays as occasional make-up days if we wanna keep trying.

Our raiders often pug after Friday is they want to try can get farther and there are calendar events for that. We’d like to finish up Normal and get the achievement then move into heroic main focus, but all of our raiders are ~550+

We’re a friendly bunch, supportive, and even if we yell at each other sometimes there’s never hard feelings and mostly we’re determined. We’re slow going since we’re relatively new, but we’re quickly progressing.

I would prefer someone at LEAST 540+, any class as long as you know how to not die. I am Main Tank (blood DK, my OT was a Paladin so I prefer a paladin yet). If you have any questions inbox me please and let’s get chatting!

tl;dr- <I N T R O V E R T> on Moon Guard- Horde needs an Off tank. Prefer paladin, 540ilvl minimum. Raid times are Wed/Fri 7-10pm server (CST). 6/7 Normal, 1/7 Heroic and quickly progressing.

It’s a hot race for Worst User Interface Update 2015 but the judges still think Skype has the upper hand so far. Let’s sit back and see what else Tumblr has up its sleeve in the coming months. Back to you, John.

I am just going to comment on this one part here:

They could have ventured to Northrend at a point in time before the Wrath expansion and died there, or maybe they froze in Icecrown after the Northrend invasion and broke free after Arthas’ death, an event that I’m sure allowed many stronger-willed undead to be let go (if Illidan fracturing the Frozen Throne thus creating Forsaken, and the val’kyr becoming “unemployed” at Arthas’ death are any implication).

This is actually a canon thing. In one of the lore Q&As someone asked about the scourge in the Plaguelands and what sort of control Bolvar had over it, and they stated outright that the transition between Arthas and Bolvar was rough and that he had lost control over the Scourge in the plaugelands. 

Edit: Found it:

I don’t think they need to have died a grand, heroic death. 

It’s definitely a lot less likely for someone who didn’t die impressively to be risen as a death knight, though. The raising of random corpses willy-nilly was something that only happened for boosting Acherus’ numbers and the bodies were primarily gathered from the Plaguelands, so mostly Argent/Cenarion/Scarlet/Earthen Ring members or random adventurers and mercenaries.

What I’d be more worried about with your idea is the location. The Scourge’s presence in Kalimdor was always very small, and mostly isolated in the Barrens within Razorfen. There was also the battle of Hyjal, but this event didn’t spill over into Winterspring, and the undead army used there had been summoned by the Legion from elsewhere, not gathered from local corpses. The Scourge was also still in the control of the Dreadlords at this point, and they didn’t really have a habit of making death knights— that was the Lich King’s thing, and death knights from this time period mostly consisted of Cult of the Damned members, paladins that lost hope and gave in to darkness, or slain soldiers from Northrend/Lordaeron/Quel’thalas.

It’s not impossible to have a character that froze to death. They could have ventured to Northrend at a point in time before the Wrath expansion and died there,  or maybe they froze in Icecrown after the Northrend invasion and broke free after Arthas’ death, an event that I’m sure allowed many stronger-willed undead to be let go (if Illidan fracturing the Frozen Throne thus creating Forsaken, and the val’kyr becoming “unemployed” at Arthas’ death are any implication). Or maybe a particularly aggressive Frost mage/DK killed them. Or maybe they died in Alterac and a stray Cultist picked up their body? WHO KNOWS.

If you’re dead set on the frozen concept you can certainly contrive a reason for it to have happened, but I would re-think the location. 

5:07PM Q: What happened to Bolvar? We haven’t seen him reign in the scourge at all. What’s he doing on the Throne?
5:10PM A: It wasn’t an easy transition for him. The scourge and Cult of the Damned operating the in Plaguelands are autonomous.
