Well, we picked up a 17 'lock and 30 rogue at the entrance and trudged on in last night. It was a bit more painful than it had to be. I was the party healer but I didn't do a very good job of keeping myself out of harm's way and kept dying. And it always seemed that Sassy and I would both die leaving the party without someone to res. We rewalked the instance a lot. But some lessons were learned. The 'lock learned that fear in an instance is bad bad bad bad bad. I learned that if you aggro the captain on the ship, jump in the water, swim over to the rocks by the entrance to the docks, the captain will still find you there. And when the captain and around 6 or so friends find you with retribution aura on, it makes for a wonderful display of yellow on the screen, followed by a quick death.
In the end, the fight with VC was the easiest of the 3 times I have faced him. The 2 rogues tanked VC while Sassy and I healed and he went down fairly easily.
I know I have to head back in at some point to work on the Verigan's Fist quest line. There are 4 pieces that need to be retreived. Sassy and I were gonna start running those quests, not sure if anyone else wanted to join in and see the world (1 piece is in the deadmines, 1 piece is in Shadowfang Keep which is the Undead equivalent of the deadmines, 1 piece is with the elite Ogres in Loch Modan, and I can't remember off the top of my head where piece #4 is).
EDIT: And as far as the tabard goes, being a dorf the beer would look most natural. Also, have we started a fund for this yet? It is 10g to create the tabard then 1g for each member to purchase it.
