http://www.blogcdn.com/www.wowinsider.com/media/2009/05/wi-reddrakeflap.jpgWell, my days of taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle. -- Firefly, "Our Mrs. Reynolds."
Just as a recap, this is what we've covered so far in the OverAchiever: Glory of the Hero series:
Part I: Ahn'kahet
(http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/04/19/the-overachiever-starting-glory-of-the-hero/)
Part II: Azjol-Nerub and Culling of Stratholme (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/04/23/the-overachiever-glory-of-the-hero-continued/)
Part III: Drak'Tharon Keep (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/05/09/the-overachiever-glory-of-the-hero-strikes-back/)
Having finished the first of the two "troll dungeons" in Wrath, let's head to the second: Gun'drak! Gun'drak is interesting in that it houses both the easiest heroic achievement and (arguably) the most annoying all at once, What the Eck? (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1864) and Less-rabi (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2040) respectivey. If you're planning on doing all of these achievements in one go (which may or may not be a good idea depending on group composition), I would recommend taking a group with a Bloodlust/Heroism (you may have seen me make mention of this point before) and several interrupts. A Mage with Improved Counterspell (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=12598) and/or a Shaman with Reverberation (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=16116) can be useful on Moorabi. You will also need an off-tank and off-healer for Share The Love (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2152).
Snakes, Why'd It Have to Be Snakes? (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2058)
As a note, this achievement seems to be individually- rather than group-based; you can get it even if someone else gets wrapped. However, if you're interested in getting multiple people the achievement all at once, there are ways to ensure it doesn't happen at all.
