Learning to love Desperate Prayer

As the Wrath of the Lich King heads towards a close, more and more people are looking towards PvP to provide them with entertainment. There is no hard and fast way to play a healing Priest in the various battlegrounds, however here are my hints and tips for keeping yourself out of the Graveyard. Before [...]

The “Twilight” Zone

What happens come Cataclysm when someone shoots a Worgen with a Rowan’s rifle of silver bullets? I mean precedent has already been set. The Worgen in Grizzly Hills are “allergic” to wolfsbane and when threatened with silver bullets they panic. Hopefully, they will be looking at least a thirty minute res timer but surely it would be [...]

The Black Bride – An Azerothian Ghost Story

Gather close little children, come hug the fire and listen to my tale of woe. Watch the flames closely. See them twist and leap and turn, stare into the glowing embers and let your mind go blank. Listen, listen. Can you hear the church bells pealing joyfully? From out of the darkness figures start to [...]

Vote for Sergra today

If we are going to see a shake up in the Horde leadership come Cataclysm, my vote for Warchief goes to …. It’s time the Daughters of the Horde took control.

Shared Topic – Preparing for Cataclysm

This week’s shared topic comes courtesy of  Nexdominus. What are you doing if anything to get ready for cataclysm? My pre-cataclysm plans are fairly simple. My main focus is on the things which are likely to be changing when the expansion hits. Examples of that would be the following: Completing Loremaster on Erinys (not many [...]

Tranquillity

It’s ridiculously hot here at the moment, real ice cream and paddling pool weather. Which means it’s far too hot to be indoors writing sensible blog posts, instead here are a couple of pictures of random things. The marshes in a thunderstorm. Thunderbluff as seen from the slowest Zeppelin  in existence. Finally the cool purple haven [...]

As I lay dreaming of a Mountain O’Mounts

A couple of things occurred to me. First of all, Lady RNG hates me and secondly why exactly am I attempting to get a dragonhawk on my Priest when she only rides two mounts even though she already has seventy plus. Apart from “Spike” the Ironbound Protodrake and her ethereal swift moonsaber, none of her other [...]

Distracted in Desolace

I wonder if I’m alone in this, but I love Desolace. There, I’ve admitted it. It’s out in the open now and can’t be taken back. I think Desolace is beautiful. Ignore the “desolace” and focus on the “solace”, which according to the dictionary means: Comfort in sorrow, misfortune, or distress; consolation. A source of [...]

Off the Beaten Track

The Explorer achievement really annoys me. I realise how stupid that sounds but how on earth can riding around checking off a list of places possibly be exploring. It’s in the realm of organised tours and guidebooks clutched to chests. Go to Brill, look around briefly or at least until it pings explored, go to Stonetalon [...]

My Cataclysmic wish list

Dear Deathwing, I’ve been a really good little Night Elf this year so could you please put the following treats in my mageweave leggings following your re-organisation of Azeroth. Boats. Rafts, fishing boats, canoes and gondolas. The models already exist in-game so providing them as water based mounts shouldn’t be too tasking. Perhaps some created [...]
