すっきりした!

so i have roughly a billion screenshots... and some big (meef) news!

kinduva an old one from zangar... evidently this is how the world pvp tower capture battles go...
ahhh good 'ol... underbog? or wait slave pens? bah, whatever. damn crabs.i come for you bastard giant!Mennu betrays no more
i'm sooo glad no one frikkin fell off the platform. how do you recover from that anyway?

kinduva neato quest (well, mob at least) i duo'd with bendyr. guess that's the closest i'll ever get to tanking sapphiron. this is that one in the bone wastes...
always make sure to have a strat
more bbq questin :D spider huntin fun no you can't have a pit lord, i don't care if he followed you home. ... ... ... warlocks never listen.
sooo glad we got our caverns of time attunement quest out of the way. i love this place.cow took offense to the human jokes hahathrall is my hero.
you guys remember hindwes? i think that was the name of the 'cna i cmoe?' hunter. he invited me to a mana tombs group. then before they summoned me, the priest dropped and hindwes couldn't find another healer (after like 5 minutes) so he dropped. So we picked up two guys and rocked the place. man i was so happy when he dropped.
i think i like mana tombs. too bad i got no loot >_<
shadowmoon valley is rock. ok, sure it's all dark and burnt black, which would put it in the blasted lands/hellfire peninsula category, but man, all this shit's goin down and it actually feels like a war zone. it's great. and what the hell is this c'thun looking thing doing here.

this is an awesome area, right near the zone entrance. basically a holding area for the infernals.but they obviously didn't count on the bbq!
so yeah, i was running around shadowmoon since i was real close... eventually 28 xp close...one kill later... woooo!!!
and the best for last... *sob* take my money you bitchwooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bel Air'd



OK. THIS is my new favorite thread evar. For those of you unaware, there is a meme called "belairing" on the wow forums, where someone will make a post with an extremely controversial title (this one in particular has the incredible name of "Rogues shouldn't be able to restealth"), in which a poster will make some outlandish claim in a wall of text, and somewhere in that wall of text will be the lyrics to the "Fresh Prince" theme, verbatim. Most of the time it gets caught right away, but it is amazing when people fall for it, and start crying about the OP when it is clear that they didn't even read the whole thing.

The thread I've linked is particularly artful. The OP also manages to sneak in "rediculous", another good forum meme. The thread goes on for six or seven pages, and even after many people had complimented the OP on his successful trolling, many people added to the thread talking about what a bad idea it was. Some complainers went so far as to QUOTE the entire original post, which was particularly awesome. I whistled for a cab and when it came near the license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare but I thought "nah, forget it", yo homes to Bel-Air!

In conclusion, check it out.

UPDATE: Blue, in their infinite wisdom, have deleted fun... still, Google Cache FTW here.

Gank Frank

OK, some sweet forum awesomeness here. Someone used some crazy modeling to make a pretty awesome shot by shot re-enactment of Kill Bill, with a WoW themage on it. Check it out. My favorite scene so far:

"What I'm talking about is...this council, which I love more than my own sweet epics..."

"IS MAKING A HALF-NINJA, HALF-PIRATE WHINEY EMO KID IT'S LEADER!!!"



"Just so you understand how serious I am, I will say this to you in Common."

Hehe. Also, some of the scenes look really cool, like they've been traced over or something. I'm not really sure how they achieved this effect, but it's pretty slick; I think some of them might be hand-drawn art mixed in with screencaps and modelviewer generated bluescreen stuff:



Check it out.

curse you sethekk halls!

so i just had my first sethekk halls pug. ugh. well no, ya know, it was actually a good group. we had no problems with our pally, mage, lock and hunter. in fact, i think the group organizer purposely chose the group to have all ranged damage and maximum cc. the hunter was a bit of a tard, but hey, at least he was dpsing.

but anyhow, so yeah, no problems, we downed the first boss, make it to the 2nd and final boss with only 1 wipe (in fact, it was that last damn 5 elite pull). ...then we wipe. then we wipe again. then we wipe again... and again. and again? i forget. after like 4-6 wipes the pally was red and left. we get a 69... shadow priest. with no pure healing gear >_< well i lie, she had healing gloves... from bf i think. (those surgeon mitts, wherever they're from) but everything else was dmg crit gear. hell she still had her pvp trinket on. so we wipe the first time since she'd never been thru... then FINALLY down the boss.

ugh. lessons i learned:
1> pallies can main heal... except through boss aoe damage ;_;
2> Talon King Ikiss is a bitch
3> ikiss is a fucker
4> fucking RUN after ikiss blinks
5> everyone should run to the SAME pillar
6> ikiss casts his damn aoe arcane bolts after every blink, so make sure you can take 1-2k dmg
7> ikiss is an ass
8> a prot warrior and a holy pally can take ikiss down from 60% to 37% by themselves.
9> ikiss is a bitch

On the bright side i got a sexay plate belt (although not a tanking one ;_;) and finished the two quests outside, which netted me an awesome 93 dps polearm and a 40 sta, +def neck.

in other news a fucking dwarf shadow priest tried to gank me outside of the maghar city thing in nagrand. but i fuckin killed him!!! gyooohohohoho! prot ftw. i even missed a chance to spell reflect a mind blast.

Death to Alliance


So I was doing a quest outside of Strattrath when a warp lizard attacked me ... not a big deal ... until a 69 human warrior decided to join the lizard ...

HAHA I was triumphant ... and the 3669 soulfire crit sure helped out too ...

State of the Meef

Just a little update of my shits:

Meef - currently questing in Zangarmarsh. Mushroom swamp >>>>>>>>>> red boringness. Still haven't run any of the instances, although I haven't gotten any quests for them yet either.

Nayuki - my shadow priest is still running around without mindflay ;_; 2 more lvls i think? I think i have some sort of quest in ... deathholme or something? if someone wants to run me thru that lemme know.

Iroha - my combat rogue needs more talent points.

Kotonoha - she's gonna be my ambushing specialist for gank mastery. not even 10 yet ;_; needs ginvite.

I guess it's no mystery why my shit is progressing so slowly ^^;;; lvling 4 characters ftl

currently on hold:
Tsukikaji - moonfire!
Yamapikarya - hunter
Mahanaxar - warlock
Nyohoho - shaman

war stories

although i was utterly ineffective in ab, there were some good moments in wsg...

once i actually ran the flag back and got a cap. man, being prot is actually kinda cool for pvp. generally i don't get to kill anything, but i can act as a tank of sorts... rushing in and wasting unsuspecting players' time as they try and whittle me down. improved shield bash is awesome cuz i can silence damn mages running around aoe'ing. 5s stun is also uber. oh and the rogues... i was really mean to one and popped shield wall, and then put up shield block and everything else... he was hitting me for 4-15. ^_^ but yeah, running the flag back and being able to take a beating is pretty awesome.

damn druids and wsg. they get to be uber flag carrying tanks if they want to or virtually snare immune cat rockets. plus heals, their own snares and moonfire. ok, so i threw in moonfire for no reason, but still.

another time we were on our last cap and i noticed no one was at our base, so i went and hid in the little cubby by the flag. sure enough, some pally came by to snatch the flag and my uber tanking skills delayed him for like a minute until finally a hunter showed up and we finished him off ftw. seriously though, staying alive for more than 5 seconds is awesome. my priest gets no such love. -_-

priest: (can_kill_target) ? (victoly : (fearWorked ? dieIn15seconds : dieIn5seconds))
warrior: (can_kill_target) ? ( victoly : (buddiesShowUpInAMinute ? victoly : doh))

yatta!!!

ahh the gulch... i return with one goal... stupid tokens...


i see my skillz have not improved...


but i strive for victory!


at long last, i have saved enuf! i require a new vehicle!


GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!

jyaaaan!

well, so i wanted to add the labels list thingy to the side bar and to do that i needed to upgrade the template to the latest and greatest. in so doing the old changes to the blog template were lost, however i tried to put them back as best i could.

if anything's missing, go ahead and add it back or lemme know. you can look at the old template in the template tab i think.

in other news, i have enuf g for my mount! now i just need to pvp for some tokens. think ima get a red horse. gyohoho

Adventures in Outland


Yes ... the outlands are great fun. Just a few pics from the adventures ...

Yes ... I now have Nightfall AND Backlash which means 4% chance for an insta shadow bolt on a Drain Life or Corruption tick and a 25% chance insta shadow bolt on getting hit by the enemy. I had some great encounters against allies trying to killing me and having backlash and nightfall proc at the same time. This lead to a huge chain of insta cast nastiness: Conflagrate + Nightfall Shadow Bolt + Backlash Shadow Bolt + Shadowburn + Death Coil ... they never knew what hit em ...

Me GUSTA La Armería (Dame mas Armería)

Hola from Peru, and Muchos Grácias a Meef para keeping me updatado en los happenings. I would be going through la withdrawal de WoW right now, were it not for his frequent updates (and the abundance of Coca Tea in this beautiful country).

However, I'm disappointado to inform you that my attempts to stalk you all via the armory have been foiled by a massive language barrier:



Though I did at one point receive a "Cinco" in AP Spanish, that was a long time ago, and my vocab never included stuff like "Aguante" (Stamina) and "Escarcha" (Frost¿). I suppose I'll have to wait til I get back to properly check y'all out.

BTW, I'm about a half hour outside of Machu Piichu, and not only is the internet cafe I'm using to write this ALSO a Chifa (Chinese Restaurant), but they have Vista on every machine. Just weird.

my helm kicks your helm's ass


yepyep, got me a mining helm. it's uber.


check me... uhh pick these flowers... -_-


this was my final hfp quest! wooooo! so long stupid red boringness!!!



ralax, lemme know if ya need me to finish this one, basically same as killing those giants (except this one has a huge knockback). gyooohohoho! meef has now surpassed my priest!

bffffft

so last nite i made my first voyage to bf with meef... and tanked for the first time ^^;;


so yeah, things were going fine... until mutant jellyfish man... broggok is he? blegh. shoulda read up on the encounters more. first time we wiped on the last group of guys... restarted... then we got a group and 2 guys bugged out!!! we couldn't target them! it was utter crap. we figured it might have been because the shaman dropped his totems too close to the unopened gate... poop.

so we wipe a little more, the mage logs -- but to get his 67 priest! so now we're running with 2 shadow priests... and... we wipe again. -_- i woulda quit earlier except the perseverance of the group was refreshing. finally, on our second attempt with the higher lvl priest, we downed the bastard... and got a gun... poooo

well, thankfully after that cockblock we were able to finish the zone off


yay tanking trinkets!


in other news, wholy hell, look at the awesome buff you get *when you gather* dreamingglory!


so awesome. just gotta find more spawn points...

finally... gralax has an awesome hat.

Re: Mysterious unhatched egg?

Detridinn: What am i suppose to do with this thing am i suppose to hatch it if so how if not and if its for a quest what one and also if its for cooking what do i need please help me!

Ningen: After you take 5000 steps with the egg in your backpack, it will hatch into a Togepi.

Detridinn: wtf ppl im serious what am i suppose to do

Raheven: Its actually a Netherdrake egg... These things are worth like 3000g on the AHs of some servers...

Ningen: Once you have Togepi, you just have to use it regularly in fights. Once it becomes content with its trainer, it will evolve into Togetic!

Congratulations on your new Pokemon!

Mom: Togetic sucks.

Ningen:
Your the kind of player who runs around with a Charizard and 4 Dragonites, right?

Go diaf you PokevPoke scrub.

Siebzehn, Säugling

Hit 70 on Sunday after some crazy questing, but I was too lazy to post until now. I also picked up my epic riding mount; I felt like the only level 70 without one, so I felt like I had to get one. Of course, now I'm the only lv 70 without a flying mount, so I'll be saving my pennies for that now... sigh.

I also did a total revamp of my UI and addons. Cut my memory usage down by almost half, and it looks pretty slick. I'll add some screenshots when I get home.

So... Meef and Dwight still both need a Ramparts run. You guys wanna set something up for tonight or maybe Sunday? I'll probably be massively hungover Sunday, so an instance 10 levels below me will be about my speed.

NOTE: Also I was bored at work so I put labels on the last 50 posts of our blog or so. Yeah...

Update?

Hey everyone, I haven't seen anyone online or anything and was just wondering how everyone's doing. I haven't played a whole lot, but I did get my epic 60 mount, (kodos ftw!) and am now a hair away from 63. I know Bendyr has been leveling like crazy and is probably already 70 or some crap now, but yeah, what's up, BBQ?

Friday, February 09, 2007

I'm back!

I know I've been absent for a while, but I'm back baby! Expect to see me online more often, usually in the evenings from 10pm - 1am.

I did some leveling this week and I'm up to 56 1/2 from 54! Hopefully I'll hit 57 by Monday.

In terms of my status:
  • I switched up my talent build from an Affliction build to a Burst Damage Destruction build.
  • My tailoring is at 297 ... so I'm very close to using all of Bendyr's spare netherweave. If you need anything let me know.
  • My enchanting is a bit weak ... it's in the mid 270s ... so if you have spare items ... send em my way!
Man, it feels good to play again. Oh yeah, I'm also friendly with Argent Dawn AND the Furbolgs ... w00t!
