You guys should play

You got me started again, you should too! Grinding is pretty damn boring.

almost 45

the murlocs in the swamp of sorrows have met my wrath.

not sure if we're the right level to be getting any of these, but you may want to check the markets for:

mooncloth
ironweb spider silk
living essence

high level cloth wearing raiders will needs these mats if they are working on their nr, so it may be a good time to sell this stuff if you happen to have any (and if it is indeed a good time to sell, the same is probably true for the mats for leather/mail/plate nr gear too... you can check this stuff on the cenarion circle rep page at the official site)

in addition, nexus crystals and arcane crystals are needed for naxx attunement, but i doubt any of us have spares laying around ^^;

Lowbie grinding

So Elsie (Julius's priest (that sounds like Judas Priest!)) and Fleckso (My drood) were grinding in Barrens yesterday, and I guess as a career rogue I never realized the grinding power of a healer and tank working together. It was crazy! We were taking on like 4 or 5 mobs at a time with almost no downtime. And I got to do my scary bear dance! I hit 14 and Elsie hit 13. Woo!

On another front, did you guys see the upcoming development notes? World PVP with consequences? Intra-server Battlegrounds? ROGUE PATCH!?!?! Christmas comes early for Bendyr-kun.

Anyone?

No comments on my last post. Is everyone playing kind of regularly? It's Julius, by the way. So it seems you guys are all about the level of my warrior. But we dont really have a healer now, right? I might have to make the priest and grind grind grind. I work full-time now, but am free after that for the most part.

Coming back

Yes I am! Just as soon as I reinstall WoW.

Spooky login problems

I tried to log into the forums this morning and noticed a field asking for my CDKey. Here is a screenshot of what all the forum pages look like to me from Firefox:


I mentioned this to J, and he said that he didn't see any CD Key field (he was also using Firefox). This got me confused and worried, so I tried IE on my machine, and I didn't see any box asking for a CD Key.


I've tried clearing my cache, cookies, etc. Has anyone else seen this screen? I so far have only seen this screen from my work computer, and not my home computer. I have no extensions on firefox other than AdBlock.

EDIT: I've posted a thread to wow-tech-support here. No one else seems to be able to see this box... The graphics used in the box (i.e. the cdkey image all come from the forums.worldofwarcraft.com server, and the action url of the form is some aspx form on forums.worldofwarcraft.com, so I don't think that my browser has been hijacked or that this information could be compromised in any way, but just to be safe I'm going to be using IE to access the forums for a while.

Discombobulation and Confustication

Woohoo! I did a solo stealth run of the back part of Gnomer, and I got the schematic for [Discombobulator Ray]. It's a kickass engineering toy that slows a humanoid target to 80%, and reduces their melee and spell damage for 12 seconds. The great thing about it is, that it's not limited to Engineering use! I've sent some of you some in the mail, if anyone else wants one, just pst me or drop me a line, I've been stockpiling Jade specificially for these, and I have a couple in my bank. Just put them on any of your action bars and click them to fry your opponent. They are kickass for gank insurance, and can stop a Hunter from kiting you to death with cheapness; on top of that, I imagine it's very frustrating and demoralizing to be turned into a leper gnome. I can't make an endless supply of them, so don't use them in Battlegrounds or anything, but feel free to pop them in World PVP whenever you like.

Just a note, they don't work on druids, as they can just shapeshift out of it, so don't bother using it on them.

よ

i have returned! well, actually i got back on wednesday, but my body is all out of whack. i was barely able to raid >< on the bright side i picked up some [shimmering geta] and a [shroud of pure thought].
