Went to CoS last night and flaunted my newbness.
First, my guild made fun of me for not knowing about the portals and instead I portaled to TB and rode down to Gadgetran to ride horses over to the caverns.
Second, I listened to Arthas at the bridge and stayed put. In my defense, he did said for me to "stay here" and not let anything through. Finally, I ask in guild and head up to the city entrance. So, I start the event and am fully expecting the waves of undead to just come to us. Stand there 10 minutes watching the timer tic and again ask in guild. Find out I'm supposed to be scouring the city to find and defeat the 10 waves.
On the plus side, I downed the first two bosses without too much trouble. The low hit point ghouls are any annoyance but I started trying to find ways to AE clear them before engaging the elites/bosses.
It was late when I started following Arthas up for the third boss and I had a wipe on a group of four elites that caught me by surprise. All in all, looks like a pretty fun and well-scripted instance.
