I'll believe that when I see it.

Something in the air?
OMG. She's back… Who's next?
I got normal Thone of the Tides a while back, but I've yet to do it on Heroic.
Or Blackrock Caverns.
Or Halls of Origination.
Or Grim Baton on normal or Heroic.
Lots to do…

Back at the Blogface (Kinda)
Wow. A whole month without posting. March missed completely. That's only happened once before on this blog - I missed the whole of November 2007, too. But March 2011 was a dead zone on this blog. And I'd like to thank you all for your concern and enquiries after my health or status with regard t...
It's not going to be winning any awards, is it?
"Right, we've got Millhouse Manastorm back. What else?"
"Oh, you know, tunnels, cultists, bosses. The normal. Just phone it in."

First steps in Cataclysmic Heroics
The time has finally come. My average iLevel has crept over the magic 328, so a-Heroicing I shall go. And, let's be honest, I was a little nervous. From every blog post I read, from all the chatter on Twitter, Heroics in Cataclysm have more in common with the nightmare days of the Burning Crusa...
Yeah, that's how I'm thinking it should go. A nice mix of normal and Heroic instance, until my gearing makes normal irrelevant, and Heroics become more comfortable (and a bit faster...)

We've just spent a few weeks in ICC, finally clearing it and bagging kingslayer titles.
Although we spent A LOT of time in there on earlier bosses, sailing past them and into stuff we hadn't done before was quite fun.

It's Too Soon for ICC to be a "Retro Raid" for me
Last night, the scheduled 10s ended up morphing into 25-man ICC. "Retro Raid!" was the call to battle. "No thank you!" was my atypical but firm reply. There is just not enough distance between me and ICC for it to live in that rosy pink nostalgia haze in my brain where the other retro raids l...
Why do I raid?
Because I'm a secret masochist. ;-)

Friday Five: Five Reasons I Raid
Last night I went in and killed this guy, a guild first. I had that awesome heart-pounding adrenaline rush, and thought it would be fun to share the 5 primary reasons I raid. I love the adrenaline rush of a new boss kill. First you make steady progress. Then you get the wipe at 17%. Then you...

Um, yes.

Reppin' It Old Skool
You know, doing old achievements in one go is pretty good for the old guild rep… (That was four Achievements in one go - 1, 2, and 3 Drakes up with Sarth, and not getting hit by the lava waves - 'cos he died before the first one)
It's a poultry compliment, but I'll take it. ;-)

Why you should never take fashion advice from a steak on legs
It's called style, cow-boy. And it's not something you'll understand…

It's all in the point of view - for Adam, it's great news.
For Leafshine, the success is marred by the whole "flesh being burnt away from your bones by the molten breath of Deathwing" thing… :-)

Leafy: the Return (Good News/Bad News)
I'm back from my holiday! Hoorah! Good News, Everybody! A ding: Could it be…? Yes! Bad News, Everyone! When portalling to Uldum to do that fun little daily… Deathwiiiiiiiiiiiiing! (It was quite fun watching people phase in, die, get the achievement. Nice pile of bodies by the end…)
It is an add-on, and it's called Multishot, as Bruce notes below. It's pretty much "fire and forget", which is cool, until your screenshots folder starts filling up your disk...

Second Time Through The Dark Portal
The observant may have noticed a trend in recent posts: grabs from 40+ areas of Azeroth, and then more from Outland. What could be happening? The truth is that poor Leafy has been neglected. Ularia my baby space goat pallie (introduced waaaay back here) has been my focus for the last fortnight...

Fei Fei ain't the dog he used to be…
When did Fei Fei become a pug? Also, why does the blasted dog think that running off to fight elementals pouring out of a rift is a good idea in the middle of the beads quest? *grumble*
Pretty much exactly my reaction.
And given my age and sex...
...that's really embarrassing. :-)

The Invisible War Against The Nightmare
I've just finished reading the pre-Cataclysm novel, The Shattering. And, on the whole, I enjoyed it. In fact, I'll go into what I thought of it in depth in another post. But first, I want to take a little time to rant, because there's something in it that annoys me beyond all reason. It's not th...
Really? The book suggests that it's, at most, a matter of months between the defeat of Arthas and the arrival of Deathwing.

Response 1: I'm not a druid, I just play one in a video game. :-)
Response 2: Caring about rocks and water and things is more of a Shaman thing in WoW. Druids are all about the living creatures. Indeed, they spend a good chunk of their time hanging out in a different dimension with a different landscape, to help care for the spirits of living things...

I didn't play WC3 either, but the father/son dynamic, the very clear link between Teneras's words and Arthas's betrayal of them was quite moving emotionally for me.
Deathwing blowing shit up? That was just kinda cool. It's interesting - I clearly don't have the same emotional attachment to the lands themselves that you and Bin are displaying. Different people attach to things emotionally in different ways, and that's going to color reactions to these sorts of cinematics.
