Tome of the Ancient

All this goofing off finally paid off! Son of Galleon is mine! I don’t know why but I always enjoyed going back to Pandaria for this mount, in fact I’m pretty sure I’ll still stop by on the way to places like Throne of Thunder. And I always enjoy visiting my old friends at Halfhill Market.

Now I guess it’s back to serious business. What? What serious business? Well, trying to complete important stuff like Whelp, There It Is before the next expansion. Let’s see. And try to learn how to play this Demon Hunter, Syanas. Although I have to admit if I just kinda flail around with my keys so far everyone is dead so that’s good. It would be nice to know what she’s doing though. We’ll see how that goes. I may do better when I don’t know.

Anyway, if we don’t see you before, see you in THE WAR WITHIN!

We are getting close to The War Within. I pre-ordered and received my 70 boost. Hmmm, what to do, what to do. I know! I always wanted to have a Demon Hunter in the family but the poor girl I had got left behind in Legion. I didn’t feel like leveling her from 40. I’ll make a Demon Hunter boost! Instant 70!

Yay! This is great! This is fun! This is OW! OW! OW! Dead again. And again. Now I was getting some insight into why she may have been left behind. I can’t start playing her at 70, I need to learn her rotation and stuff from the beginning. I know! I’ll make a timerunner Demon Hunter who I’ll learn to play from the beginning! That’s the ticket!

Well, great idea but not working out that well. I did play the low level Demon Hunter a bit but I’m anxious to get the 70 in better gear before the expansion so I keep going back. It hasn’t been too bad if you do things like Superbloom right after Tuesday when there are enough people to have less chance of dying.

Her name is Syanas, seems to be nice except when she’s a demon but hey, who doesn’t have their moments. So as usual I’m goofing off pretty much. Waiting for the expac. I hope whatever Azeroth you’re in you’re enjoying it however you do it!

Cat and I have been so excited waiting for the patch. The Outland Cup! I love any excuse to visit earlier expansions and check out my old hangouts. I did the course once as soon as it was available and planned on coming back but, nope.

And Bel’Ameth! Cat was dying to see the Elves new home. Yes, it’s lovely and um, we’ll be going back. Sometime soon, really Cat.

Follower Dungeons! I was so excited! Finally, just what I wanted. I have been dying to see these dungeon and stories without the drama. At the end of the day I don’t sit down and think, oh boy! I’m so ready to hear some jerk yelling YOU ASSHOLES at everyone. Yeah, no. Putting up with the people who pull every group in the instance I can put up with. As long as they do it politely. So unless there is some reason I have to do one I stay out.

Those follower dungeon guys were great! So polite, didn’t pull all the bad guy gangs at once it was so great!

There is so much to do and I was having fun doing it but then something happened. I was logging in and saw an old character. I thought wow, I should play her. She’s a Retribution Pally who I just abandoned around level 40. I got her out and eh, surprise, I had no idea how to play her. That’s the second Pally I’ve abandoned. This won’t stand! I will start fresh!

So there’s my new Dwarf Ret Paladin. This time it seems to be working because damn, that girl can do anything! With Cat being Feral we can just sneak through gobs of bad guys stealthed until we reach the correct bad guy. Cat’s a pacifist. Doesn’t believe in killing anyone she doesn’t have to.

But this is wild! Seana doesn’t even have to stop and think about the moral quandary presented by killing mobs of possibly innocent Murlocs. I’m going um, Seana, Seana? Don’t you think we should. Oh.

I always thought Paladins were filled with the light and would make every effort to only kill truly bad guys. Nope, not Seana. I think she thought I was joking the first time I suggested we at least leave the bad guys who were no where near us and no threat to … oh. She got them too.

It is so fun. I don’t know why the others didn’t appeal to me but Seana does, she’s fun.

Okay, needless to say Cat and the others are a little annoyed. They had plans. They tried to be patient but I keep logging in and playing Seana for three hours without so much as a visit to them cause I don’t want to get attitude.

Hopefully this will pass. I will calm down for the others sake and meet up with them. I surely hope I don’t do one long shot to 70 with Seana. Jeeezzz, they’d never speak to me again.

Who knew she’s be so fun. I’ll straighten out soon. Really. Cat I promise! No lie!

I’ve been gone forever contributing nothing of value. There is a reason, I just hate to bitch and moan. So I keep quiet. I kept my mouth shut about them ruining professions which I really like although I never really used anything I made. If I have to haggle directly with people, (it sounded that way to me) forget it.

There are many other things I find awful but instead, ISN’T DRAGON FLYING TOO WONDERFUL! No, I’m not being sarcastic I really like it. So that’s something.

But, seriously WHAT IS THIS! WHO IS SCREWING WITH MY WARDROBE! SSSSTTTTTTAAAAPPPPP! It’s really the last straw! Where in the the BADLANDS is her robe? If you mouse over the robe on the character display it says the robe is transmogged to the correct one. Is this kind of funny business happening to anyone else? Where did I go wrong?

This is so upsetting, Sasche is going to go soaring on her new dragon to calm down, sheeeeeeeesh!

Okay, you got me. She’s not really dead. Um, it’s a reenactment. That’s it. Yeah. Dragonflight is lovely. Cat loves soaring around, me too. My only problem is she’s spent most of her time dead. I don’t think she has been dead this often in any other expansion, ever. What’s up? Is she getting too old for all this snarly fighty fighting?

I think I’m going slower too. All those alts waiting to get started and Cat and Cim the Warlock are the only 70s. Nobody else has stepped a foot in it. And Cim has to fight to get Cat to give her a turn, sheesh.

My only complaint is the crafting system. Ugh. Maybe if I took time to read up more it would make sense. Outside of cooking I never really make anything for Cat to wear but I enjoy getting everyone leveled up. Grinding leather is kind of enjoyable somedays. Kind of like meditation. Yeah. Profession meditation but this whole deal directly with people thing is a no. I just want to post stuff on the auction house. Imagine my horror when I made something to sell without paying attention and found I’d just made a VERY expensive one point gain in leathercrafting because it was soulbound.

I don’t know, Cim is just starting, maybe enchantment won’t be as bad. I find that by the time I have the renown with a faction to buy a pattern I don’t need it, can’t sell it, and can’t even get a 1 point level out of it. I’m determined to get leathercrafting leveled if it kills me. I honestly don’t know why.

Cooking and fishing seemed to take no time and I do use the food so I shouldn’t complain.

Just wanted to say hi to anyone still out there and you know. Complain. But seriously the soaring around makes up for about any complaints!

Cats been wanting to get the Astral Cloud Serpent for at least a decade I think. For a while it was just too hard to solo. Finally, finally she was able to one man Mogu’shan Vaults but as the years passed Cat and I were beginning to think it was, sadly just a myth.

When we looted the, um, corpse of Elegon we stood there for the longest time starring at it. Must be a mistake. Must be something else. Must be … yeah we couldn’t believe it and still can’t.

Cat rarely uses flying mounts as flight form is quick and easy but now? She is on that transparent mount ALL the time, showoff!

Unfortunately though this means back to the grind for Genesis Motes for crafting the mounts and pets in Zereth Mortis. Its okay though as when Cat is tired of it Cim and Sasche take over and those Warlocks accumulate them fast. They are so nice to Cat. I don’t know if either of them are into mounts and pets but they help. Whoever said Warlocks aren’t nice guys, sheesh.

Anyway, back to the grind and visits to old content and one day Cat will reach 400 mounts, got my fingers crossed for her!
