3) This is a task that is required to be completed to obtain certain 0.5 Tier Set pieces. On any given day no one runs it anymore since PvP but the option is always there when you go to UD Strat.

4) MC ~ BWL ~ Naxx ~ AQ20 ~ AQ40 ~ ZG ~ Ony

1) 7 feb 2005.
2) 5 seconds after casting a spell has completed, you restart full mana regeneration. 0 or reduced mana (for classes with appropriate talents) regen is effective during those 5 seconds.
3) this evolves around a quest for t0.5 armor. from the time you pass the second gate in undead strat, you cannot take more than 45 minutes to kill the baron. otherwise he kills his hostage and the quest fails. you can attempt to do it without having the quest. the timer runs regardless. i think you get bonus rep if you do it.
4) zg, aq20: 3 days; ony: 5 days; mc, bwl, aq40, naxx: 7 days. all other instances cannot be reset more than 5 times per hour.

1) February 11th 2005 - although the first wave was pretty small and I had to wait until April to get my copy

2) After casting a spell it takes 5 seconds for mana users to start regaining mana

3) Part of the Tier 0.5 upgrade quest chain - you must save Ysida from the Baron in Stratholm (http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?wquest=8945)

4) Already listed above :)

1. Feb 11 2005
2. If you cast a spell you wont start to regeneratemana until 5 seconds after casting provided you cast another spell
3. Part of gearing up tier 0.5 involves going into Stratholme and defeating the Baron within 45 mins of enterting the instance
4. When you kill bosses in raids the instance is saved until reset and behind the scenes is allocated a raid id.

Since the OP and everyone else neglected to do it, I'm rating up the helpful responses.

Arathi Basin is a PVP Battleground where you fight the opposing faction to gain control of five resource nodes and generate resources. There's a Stables, Lumber Mill, Mine, Farm and Blacksmith's I think (I don't PVP at all really). Whilst your faction controls one of these things you generate resources and the first faction to reach a certain number wins. You gain honour from participating as well as reputation with the the relevant faction for Horde or Alliance.

One small detail. It's 45 minutes from the gate to PULLING Baron Rivendare. You don't have to kill him in that 45 minutes. Common misconception, though.

Sadly, the only time I've managed to get there in the 45 minutes, we wiped on the Baron (ran out of Holy Water and the mage was a major ... n00b). So, we STILL didn't get credit for the quest (he kills the prisoner after you wipe).
