Update - Added Thunder Bluff and Ironforge Screenshots. Also, keep in mind that you can get Tripping the Rifts very easily by defending cities now, see below!
Update - Yep, bosses are up! Go crazy kids!

Elemental Invasion Part 4 - We're under attack!
Things are getting serious and elementals are attacking capital cities!

Elemental Invasions
  • Guards will try to evacuate citizens, low level players can also use portals to leave the city before the attack.
  • You first have to deploy sandbags/barricades to help defending the city.
  • You will then have to defeat the elementals in all the districts of the city, Orgrimmar is damaged badly in the process and most of the buildings are on fire.


Tripping the Rifts Achievement
The achievement is now very easy to complete, all you have to do is defend the cities to kill the 4 types of Elementals.
  • Earth and Fire elementals are found in Ironforge for Alliance, and Orgrimmar for Horde.
  • Wind and Water elementals are found in Stormwind for Alliance, and Thunder Bluff for Horde.


Bosses
  • After successfully defending the cities, you will get a chance to counter attack by entering the huge portal in capital cities (or using the LFD tool) to fight mini-bosses in 4 different instances.
  • The 4 bosses are Grand Ambassador Flamelash in BRD, Crown Princess Theradras in Maraudon, Kai'ju Gahz'rilla in Zul'Farrak and Prince Sarsarun in AQ20.
  • The bosses only appear at the end of the elemental invasion after you succesfully defended the city, you cannot queue for them all the time.

    If it only happens every 3 hours, none of you can reliably confirm that it's not active yet. You'd have to be online and waiting in the appropriate city for 3 hours before you could make such a statement.

    You can only queue for the bosses that are the same as the elemental portals you helped destroyed. So by the sounds of it Horde get the above two for fire and earth and Alliance get Kai'ju Gahz'rilla and Prince Sarsarun, water and wind respectively.

    As far as been said, all bosses drop the same loot.

    The bosses only show up right after you defend the cities from the attacks. If your city has not been attacked recently, you will need to wait for it to happen.
