Patch Day Woes

So, 3.2.2 brings back the battle of Ony, yay! But, low and behold, the servers are jacked. Go figure. Lag was so bad on Brozebeard that it was impossible to even take anything from the mailboxes. Shadow Council was a little better. I was able to do the daily Brewfest quests. Though my lock has yet to go back into kill Direbrew for the second time.

That saddens me a little. Again, it's just the thought of not doing anything with her I suppose.

But along that note, the boyfriend and I discussed the issues over lunch yesterday. I think we may both be interested in trying our hand at running a guild again. Yeah, you heard me right. I know, I'm crazy. But honestly, after trying various other guilds after LC, we've both realized LC is exactly what we're looking for.

We both worked our butts off to make LC into what it was. Not a raiding guild, not a twink guild...just a friendly, sociable, active, family friendly leveling guild with some casual raiding. Now, months after, we are realizing, that's what we've been looking for in all these other guilds. We find ourselves disagreeing with their values, their decisions, missing the friendly, talkative guild that LC was. LC wasn't anywhere near the raid progression level of most guilds but they were fun and liked doing things together. That's something we're not finding in the other guilds we've tried.

Guess we'll see how this pans out. There are many obstacles to consider. Having our toons spread out between two factions and two different servers is on major obstacle. Yes, there is the option of faction and server transfers. When you'd be transferring and changing multiple toons, that could get very costly. Second issue seems to be that both Bronzebeard and Shadow Council are very well established, heavily populated servers. Building new guilds on these servers could be difficult.

*sigh* More to debate....

Lions and Tigers and..Brewfest and...Fishing? Oh my...

Up and down the river.....So many fish....now I remember why I hate leveling fishing. Kalyara's fishing went from 1 - 300 this weekend. Talk about a lot of fishing. The last achievement she received was 1000 fish. That's a lot of fish. I think my eyes are going cross from watching the little bobber. Though I did figure out late Sunday that if I turn the volume up, I can watch tv and just click when I hear the splash. So that leaves me just 150 more fishing points to max her out. *sigh* Though thankfully, Glacial Salmon is always in demand.

On the more interesting side. The DK made it to 75 this weekend. Actually, 2 bubbles from 76. Come on cold weather flying! Finally broke down and purchased the normal flying and a mount for her as well.

Oh, the most awesome of awesome! Kaly and Eto did the quest chain in Dragonblight that ended in Veteran of the Wrathgate. If you are horde and have not done this, you are missing out. I won't spoil this for those who haven't done it, but trust me when I say..DO THIS!! It's a very long quest chain that spans the entire zone of Dragonblight but well worth the time and effort. It kind of popped up on us by surprise. We definitely weren't expecting the ending of it.

Scored my first epic 80 trinket last night. Not bad for a level 75 death knight. That's right it's Brewfest time! One of my favorite in game holidays. Not because of the implied fake drinking, etc. But because it gives a event only boss fight that drops great loot and the chance for another mount!!

Well there is much more to report on, but my mood isn't allowing my thoughts to process that stuff today. So....until next time -

Happy hunting, happy gaming!
