Hatchet if that doesn't get your attention I don't know what will! I made Knight yesterday after having a standing of 370 and ~28K Honor last week. How I ranked with those crappy stats I have no idea, but I did. So now everyone will HEAL SIR TELVA! Let me tell you, making Knight is such a tease! You finally get to go into the sacred room and what can you buy? Potions! Yes potions! No, I can't buy armor or weapons, I can buy freaking potions. Sure they are cheap but they don't even work as well as Major pots. Then on top of that you get to see all the lovely stuff you can buy later with rank. Some of the stuff is drooling good, but will never be obtained =/ Anyway I celebrated by trying to queue with Waib, but Blizzard screwed us over and my queue didn't reset. So I along with an Alliance PuG destroyed some horde. Unfortunately before Ony HotC tried to queue and we meet up against Hatchet's team sans Hatchet (chicken!) and got utterly destroyed when 1/3 of the group (non-HotC) decided to leave for WSG at the start. We could never recover from that, oh well.
Grats to Gadi on leading a successful Ony kill. No offense to Mike, but it was the smoothest kill I have been on in a while. Maybe we just got lucky with the whelps, but it was almost too easy. Even the deep breath got no where near me and I ended up wasting a mana pot. Oh and Grats to Hatchet and Co. for finally taking the b%&^h down. Btw, ya gotta feel bad for Cana (well almost), 5 weeks in a row he has had great rolls on Ony's head only to lose. Last night he rolls a 100 but unfortunately didn't have the MVPs to compete. Keep saving up and one day it will be yours.
So I got my RAM yesterday, and because I am lazy, I just threw it in with my other RAM going against Lards advice. 3 GB of memory does wonders for Lag. I had very little CTraid lag last night, and didn't notice any other outside of that not including the occassional IF hiccup. Let's hope for some smooth sailing from here on out, and that the CT people fix their problems soon.
Tonight is BWL night. I can't wait! The first 3 fights are so fun, but remember we need to take them one at a time. I think last week people were overlooking the Razorgore fight, and we stumbled on him. He is the 2nd hardest boss we will fight, so let's not take him lightly. Same with Vael, he has only gone down once, so let's remember to bring our best!

Haha--grats, Sir Telva. I told you so! And you thought you were gonna lose a rank!
I wasn't chicken, I was in Onyxia's Lair! I didn't want to miss another guild first thanks to PvP!
And yes, getting the key to the officer's quarters is a total tease, but those pots come in handy when you kill a warlock but are about die from all the DoTs.
telva
Jan 25, 2006, @ 02:22 PM
Ya, Waib told me you were doing Ony, hence my grats on the kill later on.
And ya, the pots will come in handy, assuming I buy some. Heck they are dirt cheap compared to pots on the AH. It's just one of those things, at corporal through Master Seargent you get items that are wearable and could actually be used. Then you get to Knight, and you pretty much get nothing. Seems that the pots probably should come earlier in the ranking. Geez if I get 3 more ranks I get a full suit of armor (I think), maybe I will strive for that. Just what I need, another set of armor!
Btw, are the mounts you can by epix or just your normal slow mounts?

I am dead tired, I need a night off, I think that the next MC clear, I'll excuse myself.

Epics. I originally got all caught up in the honor system for the cheap mount.
And yeah, some of the rewards are very lame. How about a belt to wear instead of cheap pots? Or an assortment of blue weapons to buy in addition to tabards?
Thanks for the "grats." I would've kicked myself if I'd missed the first kill because I was in PvPland. Last night was the first night I'd even seen her take flight! RPGs have come a long way since Zelda!

Jan 25, 2006, @ 02:47 PM
I know how you feel Thibz. I am pretty wiped myself but I will definitely be taking a nap today. Also, I will probably sign up for MC and then if I get rostered let a n00b take my spot upto Domo.
I didn't look hard, but don't you have to obtain Uber rank for the cheap mount? Or is it actually obtainable with moderate work? This might be the way for me to get the ram and pussy cat I have wanted.
Zelda? What about Ultima on the Commodore 64, or heck Adventure!

Zelda was the only other RPG I was this obsessed with/addicted to.
Rank 11 nets you the cheap mount. I started devoting more time to PvP around rank 10. It's doable, for sure, but you'd have to cut back on your raiding. I think I still attended MC runs once or twice a week and found the time to get Ony-keyed.
It took 3 weeks to go from 10 to 11 at that rate. I've always counted on Warsong Gulch holidays to hit the next rank and slacked during the other weeks.

I loved Zelda as well, Zelda 2 wasn't as good as the first but I appreciated it. The 3rd (Super NES) was my favorite one. Once NES went 3rd I lost interest in Zelda because it just wasn't the same. Of course the same thing happened to Super Mario.

I think I played FF3 for a night or two. I think this came out about the same time video stores started renting games. I think a friend of mine rented it and we played it over a weekend, but he didn't like it because he wasn't into RPGs.
Oh, btw, Metroid is right up there with Zelda.

Oh Emperor how I farking loathe you. No matter how many times I put my sword through your fat ass guy, chop off your hands, and slice your testicles in torture, you refuse to drop the Force of Will. I guess it is aptly named because you have will power buddy to keep holding on to that! Anyway, I want to thank those who Blitz'd him with me, Waib, Zeph, Cammy, Eve, Nief, and Andista. The run wasn't a total waste because Andista picked up a black diamond for a libram. Btw, if anyone questions that this is a quick and painless run, it took us less than 40 minutes from zone in to zone out to complete this. So please think of me the next time I come asking for help.

One more thing and I will get back to work.....
I heard disturbing news last night! Belhop doesn't consider our daily thread here required reading! I can't believe anyone could go a weekday without reading this thread yet alone this sub-forum! I wonder how many other non-believers we have out there in our guild?
I think our daily thread should be moved to the required reading sub-forum. Then again, something tells me it won't help.

Jan 25, 2006, @ 05:42 PM
I always right this thread first thing.....well I read the other threads first that way I can respond to them here first thing.
Btw, there are 3 runs that need to occur this weekend a) Eve needs to get attuned (assuming this hasn't already occured), she hasn't been posting much this week so ... b) Zephodruid needs a trip through BFD, I owe her c) Kill run through DM:N to try and get your book d) more trips to BRD if time allows (this doesn't have to occur)
Since it is a WSG weekend, I assume you won't be PvPing much so we should have plenty o time.

I made a vow to never go to WSG again, and I didnt stick to it because I wanted to PvP with my friends.
Well hear me now. When we queue for both, I will not be attending WSG.
I dont like it.
I dont do well in there.
I cant type and fight.

I sort of enjoy WSG but can do with out it. I really had fun last weekend when we were doing the late night runs and it was 90% guild and we actually made Hatchet's team work a little bit. But most of the time, it ends up being uber-experienced team against alliance-noobs (myself included) and it just isn't fun.
Do tell the diabolical plan!

Yeah--about that...I have to place 3rd on my faction to rank up this week.
Since I went to Onyxia last night and twinked Beerdrinker through Scarlet Monastery afterwards, I don't think that'll be happening (and no, the Scarlet Chestpiece didn't drop).
Ah, well. What's one more week? Arathi Basin weekend'll be my last hurrah. I better see you bishes in there!!!

You've never played with Beerdrinker. He loves to a) forget he's not 60 b) forget he's not a priest c) take it upon himself to chase down runners instead of letting me do it and aggros even more mobs d) blames it on his internet connection. And the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round.
Good times.

I found fishing more fun than I expected.
It has some nice uses, and is complementary to the war effort (ship is sailing soon on that though)
I'm sure the horde would like help with the baked salmon, I have been putting that and tin on the neutral AH at about cost.

Jan 25, 2006, @ 09:11 PM
I love me some fishing! Leridyn is 300 fishing (though she has the big iron fishing pole +20 and whatever baubles and lures I can find), and Eira just finished her artisan quest to get to 300...she's still at 225, but I'm hoping to find time over the next week to get her a bit higher.
Best places I like to fish? Feathermoon and Moonglade - winter squid, stonescale eels and nightfin snappah's. I'm 300 cooking too...so it makes the goodest food for my rogue (squid) and priestie (nightfin).
Try as I might, I cannot seem to give away my other fish, not even to other hunters who might need them for their pets. Bah.
Sorry...I digress.
