It's that time of year (http://www.wow.com/tag/midsummer-fire-festival/) again, folks. Frankly, I'm glad to be back in the realm of more reasonable and just plain fun holiday achievements, because I hated School of Hard Knocks (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1786), and wound up giving up and quitting the achievement after hours of fruitless battleground deaths. Fortunately, the Fire Festival has a lot less potential to drive you to the nuthouse, and a lot more potential to grant experience, gold, and cool items (http://www.wow.com/2008/06/23/midsummer-festival-quest-shards-of-ahune/). From what I've seen, Blizzard hasn't changed the holiday since its 2008 incarnation, which is actually a good thing in a number of ways because last year's revamped and expanded Fire Festival was great.

A note on eligibility: your character will need to be at least 50 to hand in the items needed for King of the Fire Festival (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1145), and at least 65 to get the higher-level quests necessary for killing Lord Ahune in Slave Pens. With that said, we still recommend that lower-level characters (http://www.wow.com/2008/06/23/tip-run-midsummer-as-a-lowbie/) participate, because you'll wind up with a ton of experience and gold (http://www.wow.com/2008/06/23/midsummer-fire-festival-level-guide/) even if you can't complete the meta-achievement.

Should you complete the meta, you will be awarded the "Flame Keeper" title. I've listed all of the required achievements in the order I think will be easiest/fastest for the average player to do.
