    Today's One Shots is of an area that many Alliance may not have seen in World of Warcraft, but many Horde have. This particular area in Ashenvale is (from what we can tell through the haze) Demon Fall Canyon, which Horde players should recognize. Demon Fall Canyon is the location where the Harvest Festival quest "Honoring a Hero" sends you. Once there, you will find a monument to Grom Hellscream, considered to be one of the Horde's greatest heroes. Of course, if you don't want to go through all the demons to get to the monument, you can, as our reader Dan appears to have found out while running around on his Gnome, cliffwalk to the location a couple of different ways. Do you have any areas you've found by cliffwalking around your world? Any interesting screenshots from areas that are off the beaten path? How about bizarre graphic glitches that make you laugh? If you've got any of those -- or just lovely areas, interesting people, or the like -- send them our way! Add in a quick blurb on what we're seeing, what game it came from, and who you are then toss it to us at oneshots@massively.com! Without your shots, we're going to have to start using these Barbie Horse Adventures screens I got from the staff, and trust me, you really don't want that....%Gallery-9798%

  • Honoring a Hero quest bugged for BC races

    While doing my morning surf, I stumbled across some good-to-know news from the WoW LJ community. In this post by Platonic, she points out that the quest Honoring a Hero for the Harvest Festival is currently bugged for both the Blood Elves and Draenei. She also spotlights something else I thought was funny -- GMs apparently have telepathic pie powers! As the Harvest Festival just started today on live realms, I'm sure the reports of this problem has already reached the developer's ears and they're undoubtedly working on a fix for it. As always, as soon as we hear any news, we'll be sure to let you know. For now, looks like the Draenei and Blood Elves will just have to content themselves with some free festival food and drink to take away with them. (After all, free food and drink means Mages get a break, and the rest of us get to save some gold!)
