In which I attempt to get organized!

Inspired by the amazingly organised Godmother, I’m attempting to prepare as best I can for MoP whilst I have some free time. I realise this post itself could be seen as a form of procrastination but I do work better from lists (honest!). Dulcamara 1. Reach lv 75 so I can have a Shivarra. 2. Level [...]

Transmogrification picks: Staves

I’ve been thinking about transmogrification quite a bit recently and I noticed as I flicked around fashion blogs that there was very little discussion about weapons. So in no particular order, here are my favourite staves. The Staff of Earned Tranquillity/Chillwind Staff. Unfortunately, the former is only accessible to Worgens and the latter is an Alliance only quest [...]

“Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels”

The theme this week of Blog  Azeroth is “a few of our favourite things”, suggested by Ardol. Given that it involves lists, I couldn’t resist taking part. However to avoid a four thousand word essay on why I prefer that poet over that one, or why these are my favourite movies I’m going to keep [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Marching on with the To-do lists

So I finally stopped procrastinating, got off the Stormwind fountain and tackled my to-do list. Get Peddlefoot – Not once, not twice but three little cupids farmed this year. Yay! Remember how much time I’ve spent trying to get Peddlefoot over the last three/four years and curse the Gods of RNG (its perfectly safe to [...]

“Ye’re nothin’ but a prognosticator, a procrastinator!”

Because procrastination is something I’m really good at, I need lists to actually do things. Playing solo doesn’t help either, without the motivation of others needing quests/instances/battlegrounds its easy to end up hanging out in Stormwind listening to trade chat and talking to randoms. So here is my attempt at making February fairly focused. Get Peddlefoot Remember [...]

5 things I’m excited about in the Icecrown patch

Icecrown itself. The fight that involves healing a boss in particular. Although I love the look of some of the new bosses, specifically Queen Lana’thel and Festergut (his colours are nicer than Rotgut’s). All in all, I think the fights for the most part sound interesting and dynamic. A big improvement on the current tier [...]

A list a day….

At the moment, I’m only really logging to raid which naturally doesn’t provide much to write about. Although I would probably write at least a 2000 word essay on all the amusing ways in which you can wipe on the heroic version of 25 man beasties. Tanks going from full health to zero in 3 [...]

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 [...]
