Its annoying as hell when they drop something like that and not clear up what their real plan is.
Pretend this is a amazing sig with my character holding a legendary.

I never really bothered farming the mounts so I can't say I will miss it. Though, when it was relevant content it was very fun to run ZG regardless the lower quality of the gear, it felt very relaxing and big change from the 40 man raiding model. Overall very successful instance and proved to have big replay value months after its release (even though it was just mounts and pet farming for the most people).
Good memories but I am not sad its gone, I am looking forward to raid something new and refreshing![]()
Don't worry guys.
Deletion was merely a setback.
On a more serious note: Good times.
Looks like I'm gonna have to step up the Bijou farming, methinks. I'm still about 7k from exalted (48 more Bijous to get 999/999 - but less with any xp I get from kills). Too hard to solo bosses as a mage, so trash farming will have to suffice.
Ah yes, I remember getting Polymorph: Turtle and all the guild runs when ZG was actually worth doing. I'm pretty sure we still did unscheduled runs even when we had BWL on farm.
I think it was also the instance where I realised that you could turn off effects. Getting smashed from the spiders was no fun when you couldn't see anything on your screen. >.<

Zul'Gurub is one of the best instances, because of the looks and lore. I'm sure though they are not getting rid of it altogether, so i am not sad at all.
I was lucky when I got my Tiger from Zul'Gurub. I had just finished getting the Wintersaber mount the day before so I decided to start doing Zul'Gurub and I got itNow all I need is the Raptor before it is removed....I will miss you Zul'Gurub (I already do, since not really fun doing it when you outlevel the instance already)
ZG was never my favorite raid instance but it did have the best item in all of vanilla wow for rogues. Renatakis charm or trickery was a pain to get but man o man was it beastly. I was one of only 3 rogues that i knew of that had it on my server. I miss it.
Goodbye zg i will miss you /cry

In Cata, if you fly over the ZG and not go into the instanced one, and goto the zone ZG in Stranglethorn there are alot of updates and I wonder if anything new will be implemented or if its just for looks
my guess its gonna have some quests
theres altars there that weren't there b4, how I know?
there use to be a big Temple or Pyramid thing b4 it was there, but if you got beta go check this out...
MY BETA INVITE IS OVER 9,000!
Zul'Gurub will become a non-instanced subzone of Northern Stranglethorn. The Explorers Guild will give lvl 30-35 quests which will require you to hunt down the spirits of the former bosses of the raid instance:

At least, that's the info I've got...
sigh. Zul'Gurub. "When Blue's were epic."
They better be making it a 5 man dungeon.
you were my first. there's a special spot for you in my heart, i will never forget you. farewell, old friend.
Out of interest, what classes can solo the tiger and raptor bosses? What level, spec and gear do you need to do it?
Never managed to get either of the mounts on my druid, warr or mage back in the day, would be nice to get at least one of them on one of my chars!
