This sounds so horribly ungrateful but

I hate the new Alliance bear forms. The yellow glowing eyes give a slightly rabid look and I loathe the brightly coloured sideburns. I don’t want to look like some weird experimental cross between Elvis and a polar bear. My biggest issue however is, what if I really like a certain cat form but loathe [...]

One bite of the Apple

Over at Blog Azeroth the age old topic of social exclusion rears its ugly head once again. The topic starter begins with: A guild I do not wish to name on my server recently came up with a recruitment policy dubbed “no vag”, i.e. no female players allowed. The reason paraphrased is “female = drama, [...]

Honey I shrank Dalaran!

It was a normal saturday morning in the city of Mages. People going about their daily business, eating, drinking, chatting on the streets until….. this monster was spotted trampling everything in his path underfoot, accompanied by the Forsaken’s latest weapons, a supersized undead warlock and a gigantic cat. Teasel is jealous, she wants a giant [...]

The Ice Man commeth

Last night we did Hodir on hardmode. Fun fight, very crazy towards the end but it left me feeling a bit frustrated. Whatever happened to bring the player not the class, whatever happened to the developers promise that guilds will need to bring more healers to Ulduar than they did to Naxx? Our final raid [...]

There is something fishy about this feast!

The problem with Fish Feasts in my guild is that they come with a free gnome. Wipes mean gnome infestation.. eek!

Hard like Heroic?

With the Wrath of the Lich King we now have hard modes in our raid instances, a continuation of the normal mode >heroic mode we are already used to in 5 man content. Whilst I and my guild are working our way through the hard modes without too many hiccups I’m still in two minds [...]

What a way to make a livin’

It really hasn’t been Teasel’s week. First there was the crash course in flying dodgy planes held together with duct tape and milled dead nettle. Then Cilantro suggested a relaxing week in Grizzly Hills would help take their minds off the unfortunate events at the Wrathgate. A spot of camping, a bit of bear hunting [...]

5 completely pointless but fun things I would like to see added to the game

Fishing Boats: Ideally requiring 450 fishing and perhaps some kind of weird and wonderful quest chain that sends you all over the game world hunting bits and pieces down. Then at the end of the day you can moor your little boat somewhere peaceful, pour a beer and start fishing. Dogs: The worg pup is [...]

101 things to see and do: Pay a visit to Stratholme

Pay a visit to Stratholme before it burned. Wander its streets seeing human faces to those poor plagued creatures who still lurk, shadows of their past selves in its darkened and cursed streets. See little Pamela playing with her dolls unknowing of the horrors yet to come at Darrowshire. Wander down to the city itself [...]

Knock on Wood: Freya with Elder Ironbranch from a holy priest’s perspective

Ran out of pictures of Freya so thought I would use one of us having a picnic with Archmage Vargoth in her garden instead. The fight is very similar to Freya solo with one notable and annoying addition. She now casts iron roots on up to three targets every so often. The roots have around [...]
