Rolling Restarts this morning, April 8th, 2008
It's Tuesday, and you know what that means - Maintenance. Luckily, it's a a relatively pain free maintenance day today, as there's nothing but rolling restarts on the menu starting at 5am PDT. Each realm is expected to be down for no more than 15 minutes.
Of course, that still leaves you with 15 minutes of no World of Warcraft if this is your usual play time. And what's the easiest way to pass those 15 minutes than with a bit of WoW Insider?
Make some quick plans for what to do on server up by checking out our Sunwell daily quest guides. Whether you're on Phase 2 or Phase 3, we have all the guides you need to get started when your server comes back up, plus Phase 4 guides for when you get those last few percentage points worth of dead elves turned in to get it unlocked. Speaking of dead elves, we have guides for the new PvP dailies as well.
If you're a little tired of Sunwell stuff, how about a trip back to Zul'aman? Jennie Lees has written an in-depth guide to speed running Zul'aman that'll help you get one of the rarest and coolest looking mounts in game, the Amani War Bear -- if you can convince, cajole, or beat the other 9 people in your raid into giving it up to you, of course.
Been a little off your game since 2.4? Check Hortus' list to see if it's just a nasty little bug that's getting you down.
Hopefully, the rolling restarts go smoothly and we'll see you on the flipside. Either way, thanks for reading, and keep your browser here for all the latest news!

Wow, really? There will honestly only be rolling restarts? That hasn't happened in more than a month, if I remember right.
Not that I'm complaining about patches, of course. :)

Will the first SP gate to the Eredar Twins be open after this week's maintenance?

War Bears are hardly "Rare" anymore.

however, Amani War Bear pets are rare.

They arent rare in any way... Look for guild screenshots in outdoorinstances, where they are mounted... WoW 20/25 have that mount...

Yea, I logged in to check and see if my realm was up yet. 15 seconds later I got booted for the restart to begin.
