Loot Card

Last night I opened my first pack of Hunt for Illidan TCG. After flipping through a few cards, behold:


D.I.S.C.O. is mine. I decided not to sell it since it's low price on ebay. Eh, it will be cool to pull out at any given time.

Not The Good Kind Of Pet - Pet Peeves

I need to vent...

- People who just randomly open a trade box with you instead of politely asking first if they could have some conjured food/water, or demanding it rudely. "I want ______". No, just because I did chose to play the vending machine class doesn't make me your personal chef.

- People who ask for ports and don't tip. It's not so much as I'm greedy, but it's common curtesy. I tip for whatever I need done (especially hefty tips for enchants). The least you could do is shell out 1g or so.

- People who don't play your class (and never have) that think they know more than you: what's best for you/what gear you should be getting. I played over 71 days on Velgana and I have my guides and stuff I read. I'm a big girl and can dress myself.

- Night elf hunters... no need to elaborate.

- On my priest alt, people who invite me to a group before asking just thinking I want to heal for them. Anyone cared to ask if I'm holy spec first?

and finally...

- People who have been raiding with us for a month/DKP whores getting their tier6 gloves before you... then leaving the guild a week after. Third time I get screwed on t6 gloves; Long live DKP :(

I think I need a break. *sigh*

Sharply Dressed

I decided to give patch 2.4.3's item updates a look, and they do have some fun things in store; especially since I'm a tailorer. A new set to make will be able to be purchased from an NPC in Tanaris after completing a quest that will have you running about the Caverns Of Time: Old Hillsbrad Foothills.
- Haliscan Brimmed Hat
- Haliscan Jacket
- Haliscan Pantaloons
Completing the quest on heroic mode also give you an option to get this: Don Carlos' Famous Hat. I'm hoping this is all going to go together with this "spanish" theme.
Also, a bigger herb bag that doesn't require old world reputation will now be avaliable. I will also be able to get this to make: Pattern: Mycah's Botanical Bag.

Next we move on to all those dailies I did to get exalted with the Sha'tari Skyguard, now finally pays off: Nether Ray Fry. You can bet I will have one of those 5 minutes after logging in on patch day. :D

And finally, as if we didn't spend enough money trying to get goodies, new EPIC tabards via the UDE Cards.

Tabard of Brilliance
Tabard of Fury
Tabard of Nature
Tabard of the Arcane
Tabard of the Defender
Tabard of the Void

So I knew there was some reason these cards kept compelling me to buy them, and i now have 1,700 points to spend. Oh it's finally my lucky day. The items already show up on my game as of this morning (I updated my great Atlas Loot addon), and not it's just a matter of time.

Let There Be Drinks And Fireworks

Happy 4th to everyone (probably 5th by now). Nothing like drinking beer and watching the fireworks both in and out game. Toasting with an ingame friend gave you a nice little buff; Toast: a toast to your health. +20 stamina


I just have to say, Vel will probably be hung over tomorrow.

It's Time

It's been a slow time in the WoW universe for me. I've been playing around with the Midsummer Fire Festival since it started and have collected 552 Burning Blossoms so far. I'm going to wait and buy my goodies on the last day; July 5th.

- Vestment of Summer
- Mantle of the Fire Festival
- Brazier of Dancing Flames

As far as guild progression, we are stuck at Antheron in Hyjal and Teron Gorefiend in Black Temple. After playing that game Pigletoos posted in the forums (play it here), my eyes/hands were bleeding, but al my constructs were dead. It's much harder as the real deal. I was confused, scared, and excited all at the same time and ended up just shooting any ghost I saw around me.

New exploration for me happened, I found the hidden place of Quel'Thalas. Not much there except for a beautiful little section with a few things there. I've been exploring and taking screenshots lately, so I'll have more to post. You can see most of my exploration screenshots in HERE!
