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].

i'm slowly getting back to things, hopefully i'll be on meef soon. how are y'all doing? lvl 50? 60? uberness? gankdom?

What the heck is an Engineering Bag?

Have you guys ever seen one of these in-game?

Finals sucks, graduating is cool

Hey everyone. Just so you guys know, I'll be moving/studying/taking finals/graduating until the 21st, so I probably won't be on besides every once and a while to try and grind on up.

Also, I'm very much up to do some instances between the 22nd and June 1st. After that, I'll be moving around, hitting up Europe and Australia, and then won't be back to my trusty laptop until the beginning of August. So, if anyone wants to maybe run RFK, SM, or the other mid-40's fiascos, I'll be very very free to do so after the 22nd. Huzzah!

Azeroth へ かえります！

I'm back... and due to my extreme timezone confusion, I'm level 45 now! I think I'm going to try grinding that cave south of steamwheedle port for the next few levs, although sometimes that area is a little crowded. Anyone else have any other good grind suggestions for this level range? How is Hinterlands/Azshara, etc?

Anyone up for one of those instances J was touting a few weeks ago?

media

i dunno if you guys saw return, but imho it's some frikkin amazing machinima. the original short has been out for awhile, but today, they released the trailer for episode 2. can't wait

another must see... err listen for wow players -- i forget who the raid leader is or what server or anything, but there's an audio clip of his instructions on ventrillo... it's amazing. joystiq has a little story up - links a flash animation someone made to go along with the audio.

sweet revenge

so yesterday i was grinding in the badlands again, this time killing ogres, when i get ganked by two alliance fuckers (specifically, 44 or so rogue and 41 mage). i guess the rogue forgot how close the graveyard was, cuz when i rezzed, he was at half health, finishing a fight with a rock elemental.

i rezzed, charged, immediately hamstringed and used rend... so when the fucker vanished a second later, he popped back out of stealth. nyooohohohoho! i love that. then yeah, even thou he pot'd i finished beating the crap out of him and got the hell out of dodge. hahah.

fuck the alliance.

in other news...

聖剣伝説DS： Children of Mana is here!!! w00t!


time to get my import gaming on! nyoooohohoho!

elemental earth ftw

so during my mad attempt to crawl out of debt, i stumbled upon a little gem... elemental earth! grinding those earth elementals near kargath has been paying off nicely. at first, prices were as high as 2.25g each, but even now at 1g each it's been some pretty good income. at any rate, i've bought my skills, and am quickly approaching 40g! i'll have that money back to you guys soon. thanx again for the loans!

FP in Booty Bay

Apparently there is one ... can someone show me where this damn thing is!?!

馬! （うま! (uma! (horse!)))

I IS HORSED.

nyooooooooooohohohohoho!

I also owe you guys 46g. ^_^;;

四十だよ。(yon jyuu da yo) (40!)

woo hoo! i'm 40, bitches!

Thanks to the generous donations from the guild, i'm only about 12g shy of my horse. Was gonna sell some blindweed last night, but realized it was maintenance night... so i'll do that tonite. almost there!

gyarrrrr

p.s. mortal strike is teh sex

heheheh

The Mage

Of all the classes in wow that exist,
one right now seems to surely be pissed
We rolled a mage becasue magic is FUN
when all we really do, is conjure a drink and a bun

We got into mage and at first it was cool
we had not 1 but 3 choices of magic school
The fire would burn, with a deadly dps
The ice would freeze, making people move less
and the arcane of course would give us clear cast

Times have now changed and we sit wondering "why?"
all we can do is conjure and cry
we have too little life and our armor does not exist
and now many people just seem to resist

So when you see a mage who looks very sad
all you have to say is its not all that bad
you can still group with us we wont let you become dead
as long as you make us some water and bread...doh!

Epeen

Sorry, I know this has nothing to do with Steve's Korean BBQ, but I just wanted to say that after many many many long months, I finally completed my prophecy set with my priest!



I think this is my first full set ever in WoW (never completed dungeon set 1)... I don't think I ever had a full set in Diablo II either hahaha.



woo hoo!!! alrighty, sorry, but i really had to get that out of my system. now back to grinding for a horse! ^^;
