Gnomes and Trolls

Alright, I was not feeling well last week, But I think I got a bit to talk about today.

First: Gnomes

seriously, wtf

When I first started playing WoW (somewhere around patch 1.6) warlock was obviously the class for me. Back then, I didn’t know much about the game and I rolled him as a gnome purely for stats. Now that I’m seventy and have nothing better to do in between raids, I go out and look for cool gear.

This is the closest I’ve been able to come.

That’s the Shadow Brim Travel Hat and the yellow robe off of Battleguard Satura (AQ40, forget what it’s called).

Now, recently my Dimensional Ripper–Area 52 malfunctioned, with some interesting results.

Now, take a look at those, Why does the gnome have to look so LAME?!?

I think that I’m just going to level a human warlock up to seventy and just leave him there until Wrath of the Lich King comes out. Then I can just pick him up when the expansion comes out. I doubt I’ll completely abandon my gnome, since he has alot of stuff that’s near impossible to get these days.. but I’ll raid with my human, solely for the purpose of having decent looking armor.

And later today I think I’m going to post another blog about Karazhan to make up for my lack of blogs last week, but feeling kinda lazy at the moment and I feel I’ve written enough for now.

Yo wut up my ninjas?

So, you may or may not know that I’ve been out of the WoW scene for about a year, but I’ve recently come across a bunch of awesome music videos by a warlock named Nyhm on the server Alleria. These are parodies of rap music, but lyrics are set to make fun of WoW related things.

The music videos he’s made so far are:

Can’t PuG KZ — A song about the troubles of finding a pick up group for Karazhan

Death Knight-Spree — About the new class and expansion

Hard Like Heroic — Making fun of the noobs who.. “watch” the female characters in WoW

Just Loot It — Ninja looting items

Just So OP — A pro-warlock video telling how we’re so overpowered

M.A.G.E. — The woes of being a walking talking vending machine

Ni Hao — QQ against Gold Farmers in Shadowmoon Valley

I’d post links to all the videos, but I’m posting at school and everything’s blocked.

However, for all you people at home, or where you can get to Youtube, check out Nyhm’s videos, here’s a link to Mad Cow Studios clicking Music videos will bring you to a table of his videos.

I highly recommend watching them, very funny, very entertaining.

Zul’farrak

Awesome instance, great loot, great gear, why can’t people do it properly?!!!!?!!?

So last night, gathered a few kids for a PUG, Mage, Priest, Shadow Priest and a Warlock. Pretty sure the only competent one besides me was the ‘lock.

Me (a feral Druid) was the tank. About halfway to the first boss, the holy priest dropped out. We wiped when he left, but got back together and finished clearing to the boss when a hunter joined. We died on the boss, but ran back, killed him, and died right as he died.. While we were running back for our loots, the hunter being a complete noob pulled half the instance. He died, brought the shadow priest and warlock down with him. I had switched to cat form and stealthed to avoid death. They ran back, pulled again, but this time only a few packs of mobs, which we dispatched. Looted the boss for some lame stuff, and the hunter decides to leave. And then the group fell apart and I went to bed.

So the moral of this story is blame PG.
