Challenge of the Six

Much has happened in my WoWverse since my last post. Not the least being my guild has gone its separate ways. At least until MoP. It was very dramatic disbanding at first, but those of us that stuck around until the end had a couple of good discussions (and way, way too many Titanic references).
I'll still be playing WoW, just not 12 hours a week. Hm...maybe I should make another shaman...

As for the Six Challenge, I was tagged by Gladly of The Ready Check. Almost all the pictures I've taken are on my external HD. Which I am too lazy to go find and attach. Thus, all I have is the 6th image in my WoW Screenshot folder. Without further ado:

This, my children, is what happens when you and another player manage to hop on drakes at the exact same time in the BC Durnholde dungeon.

Now with pants! (sort of)

Finally found a transmog I like. I love the shoulders of this tier, but - as I've made clear - I hate kilts. Dresses. Skirts. So I mixed n' match to make it work for me.

Head, Wrist, Hands, and Shoulders: Tier 13
Chest, Waist, Boots: Hunters' look-alike from BC dungeons
Pants: Mail Combat Leggings (green drop in Scarlet Monastery)

The next playable race: Dragons?

Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t seen the ending cinematic for Cataclysm don’t…OK, no. There’s a statute of limitation on these things. It’s freely available to watch in-game. SPOILERS AHOY!

The Dragon Aspects are mortal now. This raises a lot of questions:

Do they still have any powers?

How mortal is mortal?

What will they do next?

I’m thinking that yes, these guys can still put up quite a fight. I mean they have been around for thousands of years. Surely they’ve all mastered some ‘mortal’ skills like magic or druidism. The probably now have the life expectancy of elves or draenei or something. Still going to be around a long, long time.

There’s a lot of interesting lore questions that depend on how much power the dragonflights retain. Can the Bronze Dragonflight still watch over the timeways, albeit with more limited power? Yrsera is probably a pretty good druid, does her flight start integrating with the folks up in Moonglade?

Do the flights remain neutral in the upcoming Alliance vs. Horde extravaganza expected in MoP?

If they don’t…could we get the point where we have dragons as a playable option? The flights, now mortal, find themselves without a clear purpose for the first time in their existence. Maybe some members go Alliance, some Horde. Individually based, much like what is happening for the Pandrens.

Each flight represents a different class:

Red = Warrior

Green = Druid

Blue = Mage

Bronze = Priest

Black = Warlock

Dragon palyers can choose from any race, and remain in that race during combat (albeit with weird eye colors and possible dragon horns). The only exception is when flying. Instead of mounts they get to transform into their dragon form.

Of course, this allows for all the “I’m a half-elf, half-dragon, half-orc Princess, who has to marry King Varian and Thrall, while at the same time saving the universe with my magical love powers!” characters to be that much closer to actually existing…but is it a risk I’m willing to take to fly around a dragon? Maybe…

How I feel about Wednesday Nights

Mage logged on and said "It's beginning to look a lot like 10 man" in the tone of "It's Beginning to Look A Lot like Christmas" and I had to finish it for him.

It’s beginning to look a lot like 10 man

Everywhere you go

Take a look at the guild roster

Not a hope to foster

Without raid leader and his bow

It’s beginning to look a lot like 10 man

AFKs on every screen

But the saddest sight to see

Is the mage that will be

Dressed in BC green

Raiders that number five and twenty

Is that so much to ask?

High dps and ticking hots

And lots and lots of flasks

If only we had all of this

In epic loots we would bask

It’s beginning to look a lot like 10 man

Everywhere you go

There’s a heals in Exodar

And a tank dead in Orgrimmar

But they're both seven levels too low

It’s beginning to look a lot like 10 man

Soon we’ll have to call it

And the thing that makes it suck

Is that you’ll have to sit

That’s just your luck

Raiders that number five and twenty

Is that so much to ask?

High dps and ticking hots

And lots and lots of flasks

If only we had all of this

In epic loots we would bask

It’s beginning to look a lot like 10 man

Soon we’ll have to call it

And the thing that makes it suck

Is that you’ll have to sit

That’s just your luck, just your luck

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! Or is it last year? I'm in so many different times and places right now... 

I have a minor Bronze Dragonflight obsession. It's growing - especially for Chromie. She intrigues me and one of these days I'd like to dedicate something a bit longer to her. For now, a quick doodle!

Avalanche!

Oh heroic Morchok. It's not that you're conceptually difficult. We're just having a "derp" night. All 25 of us. Go us.

That's ok! Wipe time = picture time!

Twins

Yesss my minion. Crush them! Crush them ALL!

MWAHAHAHAHA.

They stand and watch the WHOLE fight. You'd think they'd help a little more. But no.

And finally, from last week:

Helloooo.

The Madness of Madness

6/7 down in 25man Dragonsoul. Working on Madness all night. We had him So.Close. Like, 3% close. But RL dictated sleep > raid. Tomorrow for sure!

Some fun shots from tonight!

Wipe on Spine, the pile of dead makes me giggle

He SEE'S EVERYTHING!!
