Sweet 16

And on we go with the challenge. I'm again sorry that I haven't updated, but real life for me is an issue that isn't funny at the moment at all. Lack of motivation and all that. In any case, let's go forward shall we.

Day 16 – Things you miss (post Cataclysm)



....I'm a cata baby so this doesn't apply to me as it would apply to many others, in any case, I have read enough to know what I can miss.


1) The epicness of old raids and such things. I'm actually very very disappointed that I didn't start playing in wrath, since honestly? Death Knights were.. Something else, healers were something else and everything according to pretty much everything was glorious back in the day.


2) When levelling was actually hard and the game actually taught you something about your class. Nowadays actually looking trough your spellbook is a rarity. What I mean by that is actually reading trough your skills and stuff. Not to mention that you can level to 85 in a DAY!


3) When dungeons could take hours..


4) When BG's could take hours.


Those are few things that I miss, even though I wasn't even playing then. Maybe it's the overly glorified view I've gotten thanks to my "I started in vanilla" friends. 

Day 13

So.. Earlier was how my day looks like and now I wonder about day 13's topic. I don't look them ahead of time as in my opinion that would make it unsurprising and what not. On we go!

Day 13 – People (players/bloggers) that you admire



As I already did go over my favorite websites and every associated, I'll just go with players and so forth.


Who I admire?


1) My Guild Leader. 


And there it is. He is the only player I actually admire. Short and sweet answer to that. It's just that to get my "admiration" you actually need to earn it. Sure I like and respect and what not other players but I don't admire them...

Day 12

And again it's challenge time, if you didn't read my earlier post about missing a few days and so forth here you have a compensation. Todays topic is... *Drumming*

Day 12 – A usual day in your life/online time



Well isn't that just something. Let's go then.


06.30 - My man wakes me up, as I am incapable of waking up in any sort of manner that makes sense. I am almost impossible to wake up. 
06-30-07.00 - Shower and coffee and what not, the usual.
07.00 - 09.15 - That's how long it takes for me to get from home to school, yey. 
09.15 - 10.10 - More coffee in the school cafeteria and making final modifications to what ever school things I still have left, like essays and what not, checking that I have done everything and so forth.
10.10 - 15.15 - Lessons...
15.15 - 17.30 - Getting home from school.
17.30 - 18.00 - At this point I usually make food and what not, dinner and such, sometimes clean a bit or so.
18.00 - My man usually comes home.
18.00 - 20.00 I'm doing homework usually and checking things and such.
20.00 - 02.00 WoW time. Or what ever I feel like doing on my Mac. Still.. Usually its playing WoW, having an event or raiding or what not. 

I missed a few...

So as I have been somewhat absent lately (too much stuff going on and all) I have missed three days from the challenge. But do not despair, I'll make up for it in a moment.

Now to the actual topic of todays topic, which is Garrosh is the "big bad" of MoP. Who would have guessed. It was in a way quite obvious but I would have put my money on Sylvanas personally. Still Garrosh being the big bad of that expansion I wonder what is going to happen later? Who will be the new warchief? Will Thrall come back or will it be someone else? And to make matters more twisted, how much time is between the expansions? As it is, we already know that from Aggra's and Thrall's union will come the new aspects, I wonder what else will happen and how will the story progress?

It was said earlier that in MoP the main story is already there when you get the game and every patch will be like a sequel to it. Every major patch that is. Now I wonder how will that influence and what exactly.

Lately it has been said that WoW is a dying game and partly I agree. It's because of the things Blizzard has done for or against the players. In every post they make they sound passionate enough but in reality I wonder how much general motivation for game making they actually have anymore. I mean to Blizzard WoW is a moneymaker and only that it seems.

On another note tier 13 feels old. There's nothing to tie raiders over anymore and running the same things for months at end is starting to get boring very very fast. I wonder if we'll get anything to tie us over before MoP or do they trust that beta will help us live trough this time?

Group oh group

I have to say today's little LFR run was absolutely brilliant, at least on Madness that is. First part I did with my Priest, healing of course. When I am healing I really have no time to think about loot rolls or think about what people say in /ra if it's unnecessary. I know that all relevant things will come up in raid warnings and I have enough awareness to my surroundings in the game that I know not to stand in fire and can see what situation requires what kind of heal.

In any event the first part even though I had already done it went well. No drama and all was very very fine indeed. The other tank wasn't the best ever, but we didn't wipe and all was well.

However the second part which I did with my unlocked lock. I did it with a friend who was tanking and the first three went very well indeed. Then comes Madness and half of the group leaves. Eventually my friend tank got the raid lead and gives it to me. I have raid lead these things before so I know what to do and what to call out, it's nothing big. Usually I do it while tanking so doing it while DPSing isn't all that hard.

In any case, it went like a dream. Even thought I won nothing I don't care. Two people died in the whole time, both DPS and that was it and even they were ressed instantly. It just went so well I have never seen such co-ordination from a PuG. Never in my whole entire life.

The bolts were nuked down before they hit the ground, the tentacles killed roughly at the same time, no adds clinging and no one dying on jumps. No one doing stupid mistakes or whining about something or other in /ra, everyone went just So Damn Well. If I had such a group even once a week with One boss I'd be happy the rest of the week.

Honestly? It felt awesome, like the group had raided together for quite sometime and oh.. I could just go on and on and on about this :)

Moving in!

Hello hello,

I have moved to here from my earlier blog, and as such will simply give you all nice people out there a link to my old blog so you can see what has transpired before.. As I am far to lazy to copy everything from there to here. In any case, now that the desk is clean and the word is free I'll go straight to business.

1) Who am I?
- Simple gamer and a nerd with a horrid perfectionism streak that strikes with everything I do. Also female and 20 years old and working as a bartender while studying.

2) What do I write about?
- MMO's of course. My main focus is WoW (More commonly known as World of Warcraft) and in the side other games such as LoL and SWtor can be mentioned along with other things.

3) What makes me able to write about those things?
- Some might say, nothing, however after playing for quite some time now and having played every role WoW for example has to offer I think myself good enough to blog about it. However do keep in mind that whatever I post is only my most humble opinion, it is not the absolute truth and more often than not I write about things that have gone on or something that seems to stir quite a few people.

4) Well what characters do you have then?
- Death Knight, Warlock and Priest all maxed out and rest on leveling still.

5) Horde or Alliance?
- Horde of course.

6) Anything we should know about your blog?
- Hm.. Yes indeed. I am participating into the 20 days of WoW blogging challenge, made by the blogger of Spell bound. The post can be found from Here.

Without further ado, Here is my old blog. Hope you'll enjoy the ride with me.
