Needles Gank and the consequences
As beautiful as the Thousand Needles are, it is also a Contested Territory and one close to Horde homelands. That said, I avoided a number of contacts in the canyon and the salt lake-bed with higher-level Horde members. Stealthed atop race control tower at the Goblin Racetrack facility, I observed one rogue from The Big Bad Voodoo Gang guild to stroll around the nearby race facilitity. Little did I know that there is another guildie rogue of his, sneaking up behind my back. Stunned and overpowered by 2 L30 rogues, I was finished off in a short time.

Upon return to Duskwood, my regular grinding and questing place these levels, I heeded to guild call for defensive raid at Astranaar. Although the raid was over by the time I got there, I still scored two Horde kills in the Thistlefur humanoid village north of Astranaar. The shaman and rogue ate the poison right off my dagger.
