Whew it’s been a good long while since I posted! So what’s new huh .. WotLK!! The scenery is awesome! The music is great and worth turning your sound settings back to the ON position for LoL. Many of the quest chains are just plain epic!! Blizz definitely made up for some of the Burning Crusade failures with Wrath of the Lich King!!

My main Starrlyte hit 80 a night or two ago so I’m working on leveling my shaman Archimage. Soon as I can pick up another copy of WotLK for my second account I’ll be working Gilibean up to 80 as well. In the mean time my new death knight Starrena while totally awesome just hasn’t caught my fascination much so she’s still just 58.

Heres some new screenshots to share:

Starrlyte harpoon surfing in Howling Hjord, yes this is a real quest =D

Starrlyte flying high in the Borean Tundra, another quest.

Exploring Coldarra, the home of ‘The Nexus’ one of the first five man instances found in Northrend and by far the most breath taking scenery I’ve found these first few days in WotLK.

No stage fright here! Archimage enjoying the “Tauren Chieftains” in concert at the ‘Worlds End Tavern’ in Shattrath.

I need a new wp theme so I guess I’m going surfing!!

WooHoo!! I hit revered with the Shattered Sun Offensive last night so today I spent thirty or so gold and got myself the Seeker’s Gavel to use with the off-hand I got in Karazhan last week. Speaking of … I had another awesome night in Karazhan!

#1 Handwraps of the Flowing Thought

#2 Malefic Girdle

#3 Boots of Infernal Coven

#4 Talisman of Nightbane

#5 Forest Wind Shoulderpads

#6 Nathrezim Mindblade

We blew through the whole place in about fours with only two wipes both on the Shade of Aran. Happily we had no bugs playing Chess Event this time but I did get DC’d 5 times through the night, grrrrrr!! And on a side note I did receive 2 Badges of Justice from a GM for last weeks mishap with the Chess Event game chest.

My dps broke 400 tonight, it had slipped by the time the raid was over as seen on my screen shot. A few things I need to check into are the spell hit cap, I’ve been told 152 for druids but I’m not sure and crit chance is what 30% tops?
Here’s a funny character name I spotted this evening, Fishhead, a drainie warrior =D

Went on my first Karazhan run since leveling my new druid Starrlyte. I have to admit I went in there a bundle of nerves and for good reason! It’s constantly on my mind about my dps being even lower than it was on dialup! Say it ain’t so, right? Well I can’t and it is!! Here’s a screen shot, notice I’m the bottom of the dps, barely higher than the tanks and/or healers. PITIFUL! On a good note I did pull in a ton of loot and after getting the first three items I noticed my dps broke the three hundred mark so there’s still nope for me yet on this satelite internet!!

#1 Nethershard Girdle

#2 Ring of Unrelenting Storms

#3 The Lightning Capacitor

#4 Jewel of Infinite Possibilities

#5 Antlers of Malorne

#6 Idol of the Unseen Moon

For the last item I used my Badge of Justice’s from tonights run to buy. It was a good run but not without some bumps! We went into the Chess Event and just as I went to take one step I got DC’d. Upon relog’in I fall from high above into the hallway of the Curator, like what the hell? Someone else in my raid lands beside me and turns out it happened to two others just about the time I DC’d. We ran all the way back only to find the Chess Event won and we were all unable to loot the game chest! Of course a ring dropped that I could have used, and since no one else needed or wanted it it was sharded, what a waste! Not to mention we were shorted, two Badge of Justice!! I did put in a trouble ticket and a couple hours later later a GM tells me he’s sending the ticket up for a specialist, either way I’m not gonna hold my breath they do anything!

This is too Frakn Funny!!

New Hero Class Revealed: Bard

The deeds of every great hero inspire countless songs of triumph, virtue, and epic adventure. But although a hero’s glory endures in song, the creators of those songs are seldom remembered. After ages spent singing of the heroic exploits of others, the bards of Azeroth are finally stepping into the spotlight on their own terms, proving once and for all that while just about anyone can pick up a sword or cast a spell, only a true hero can vanquish evil with the power of ROCK!

Last year I pretty much slept through Noblegarden so I’m very pleased to have remembered it this year. I only found eight eggs and all contained candy and/or coins so I made up for it by also doing some light ore mining while riding around. Here’s a couple screen shots of Archimage looting his finds..

Noblegarden is an Easter event that takes place around April, where players can search for colored eggs hidden around the various starting zones.

The great feast of Noblegarden has long been celebrated by the races of the Alliance and recently adopted by those of the Horde. On this joyous day, it is customary for the nobles and lords from each race to hide coins, candy, and the occasional treasures within special eggs painted to look like wildflowers. These eggs are then scattered around the major cities for the citizenry to find. From heroes to commoners, and everyone in between - the feast of Noblegarden is meant to bring communities together to share the joy of life and friendship.
