The next raid in our series will be one of the most popular raids in the game: Epic Demon Queen! (aka Zawabi's Revenge) on Saturday, Jan 10 at 9pm EST.

As with our last event, the raid is for players newer to the raiding scene or players that are looking to learn raids better. First timers welcome! Dbags not welcome. Please have sound and be willing and able to follow instructions.

The goal is to welcome newer players into the raiding scene, to teach people how raids work, to get players more comfortable with raids, and to enhance the Sarlona community. There is no level cap for any of our teaching raids but you must be at least level 20 to enter the epic demon queen raid.

If you are new to the DQ raid, you will need to be flagged by running 3 quests in Menechtarun:
  • Offering of Blood
  • Chains of Flame
  • Chamber of Raiyum (wiz king)

You will need access to the Demon Sands adventure pack. We will be doing the raid on epic difficulty but you can run the flagging quests on epic or heroic to flag just the same. Each quest will give you an item that you need to take to the quest giver when you pick up the end reward, and then take to Zawabi the djinn, who is located up the hill from the mailbox in Zawabi's Refuge. The 3 items you need to give to Zawabi are the Orb of the Efreet, Blessed Blood Offering and the Phylactery of Raiyum. Once you've given all 3 items to Zawabi, talk to him again and he will grant the pre-raid quest Against the Demon Queen.

After running the 3 flagging quests, the pre-raid Against the Demon Queen must be run before the raid. AtDQ must be run every time before running the raid, but the other 3 flagging quests just need to be run once per life. We will run AtDQ together, so you will just need to have completed the other 3 quests prior to Saturday's event. Make sure you have turned in the quest items to Zawabi and he has granted you the quest Against the Demon Queen.

Usually all spaces are spoken for by the time of the raid, so reserve your spot ahead of time! If you would like to reserve a space in this Saturday's event, please contact me in game on Gingerspyce.

Thanks for all the community support and we hope to see you in raids soon!

Love,
Gingerspyce and The High Lords of Malkier
