10 reasons why we are not afraid of elite Tindirin and Planar Tombs
10. Because after surviving elite Nordr and Shuyal on Week 3 of Tour of Arlor, elite Tindirin is a walk in the park. And mobs in Planar Tombs are elite Shuyal mobs on steroid. We've dealt with them before, no big deal.
9. Also because Eminem said so.

8. There are achievements and titles you can win on these maps. Admit it, you want them too. :)
7. Kelvin can stun the scariest of bosses.
6. There are excellent guides on how to run in elite Tindirin. Check these out:
For warriors:

Jirikjurasek's guide on how warriors should best use their skills in elite Tindirin.
For rogues: (yes, these are solo guides, but helpful as well in party situations)

4. Because knowing how to run these maps--the pull, park, run, boss kill strategies--will help us farm better there. I hope by the end of this week we can call out for parties for elite Tindirin and Tomb farming runs, and hands will be raised.
3. Because these maps are the challenge maps for Week 4 of Kalizzaa's Tour of Arlor. And we want those vanities, preciousss, yes we do.
2. Because I'm giving away some Kelvin and George eggs and ankh kits for this week's runners. Get ready for quizzes, knights!
1. Because we are the Trinity Knights. When faced with seemingly unsurmountable challenge, we don't back down and say we can't. We say "I'll do my best" and do just that.
Best of luck in Week 4, knights.
