That Kind of Week
Yes, the whole week was like this. All Cat wanted to do was take a seat on the bench and … this. Apparently accommodations at the Shrine of Seven Stars are only for humanoid shapes. And early in the week she had a horrible time with the shieldwall dailies. I don’t remember them hitting this hard, we almost died a couple of times. What’s up?
She was doing them in her Safari Hat and instant Dalaran ring … oh. We’ve been stalking Kar Warmaker and I assume everyone but me has figured out how to avoid Cracking Blow because there’s never a sign of him. Finally! There he is! There’s no one on to call for help, so let’s try this! We tried the strafe around him approach and I think we went too fast and got hit. Didn’t matter though as we weren’t doing any damage at all. We shadowmelded and went to heal up and didn’t notice the crab … who killed us.
So while returning for our body … AH HA … fishing pole equipped, could have something to do with the crappy damage and of course by the time we got back to old Kar he was dead. Oh well, let’s do some golden lotus dailies on the way to the Spirit Tamers. We finished killing the Crumbling Behemoth way down on the path, far away from the action and the phone rang. I moved off the path and left her in stealth. On returning I found someone fighting him on top of us and oops, we’re dead. So we fly over to the Shrine and try to repair but that Pera Firestone is too busy shooting off fireworks and running around like a nut to attend to us … sigh.
Okay then, we’ll go beat up the Spirit Tamers … yeah … what could go wrong there. I don’t know about your team but my teams CAN NOT miss their big money spell two times in a fight and win. Miss … miss … miss. Then FINALLY we are about to win. We are going to win! We won, he’s dead! Noooo … then we died. I hate poison.
Yup … that kind of week. So last night Amateur Azerothian whispered did I want to do OS25? Well yes I wanted to because I had missed the Laid Back Raid the night before because of poor reading comprehension but I was about to leave the house. Oh hell, let me see if I can make arrangements here, I want to go! So I did.
Yes that’s me! That’s me on that Twilight Drake! I’m pretty sure it was a set-up as I don’t win rolls, I usually roll an 8 or 11. We did it four times but were running out of alts to switch after a while. Thank you so much for a wonderful end to a crappy week! I’m going to start a new non-crappy week right now. Mounted on my Twilight Drake I’m going to roll up on those Spirit Tamers and astound them with my awesomeness, they won’t even see what hit them!

Thanks Euphyley! It really is beautiful. I’ll have to stop being so hard on my Shaman cause she’s the one who got it!

Grats on the drake 😀
January 28, 2013 at 11:03 am
Thank you! I’ll be riding it everywhere, Cat should stop by the tavern to show her friends!
January 28, 2013 at 9:16 am
Grats! Looking really good there. 😀

Thank you! I’m glad you all know how exciting it is, I tried to tell my husband but it just doesn’t work with a non-gamer, lol.

I tried to tell my wife about my recent mount luck, and she didn’t understand why I was so excited either.

I know! I’m saying, “I got the Twilight Drake!” And he’s looking at me like I might need medical attention as I explain it’s this big blue dragon … It just doesn’t translate to non-gamers, lol.

Whoa whoa whoa………you didn’t have a Twilight Drake?! Why didn’t you say something?! I could have gotten a group together too, crazy Cat! And I am shocked that a Safari Hat wouldn’t scare the shit out of any elite. Do they not know you are an epic pet battler? A general who has amassed a legion of the deadliest beasts, critters, and air strikes Azeroth has ever seen? They should not undersestimate you, Tome. Ever. Well, I’m glad you got the drake with JD’s group – he’s awesomesauce, and so are his friends. 🙂 Maybe Cat just needs to go have a drink with a certain hirsute bartender in Stormwind, and cool her paws for a bit, too.

Thanks for the kind words. 🙂

If there’s something that drops from a raid group, I don’t have it, until now!
You’re right, she needs to go show off to old Jarel … and then go pet battle some more, lol.

Grats on your gorgeous new drake!
Ayiyi, those weeks. Well, this is a new one, right? 🙂
January 28, 2013 at 11:08 am
Thanks Kam! Yes, so far it’s going a lot better! I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
January 28, 2013 at 11:35 am
LOL, such a familiar scene although my fishing pole is not one of the usual culprits these days. Congrats on the mount. It looks great on you – or should I say the other way around 🙂

Thanks Cym! Yes, there’s been Ironman leveling now I think there should be a Safari Hat leveling competition, lol!

Grats on the Drake!
“We shadowmelded and went to heal up and didn’t notice the crab … who killed us.”
That Ghostcrawler.. he gets every where :p
January 28, 2013 at 3:22 pm
Thank you! LOL, so that’s who the crab was, I should have known!
January 28, 2013 at 7:42 pm
Grats on the drake, Tome! Definitely one of the coolest-looking mounts in the game. =)
January 28, 2013 at 7:55 pm
Thanks Arv! I now realize it’s a mount that I’ve seen and wondered what it was because I thought it was so pretty, now I can admire my own!

What a nice end to a faecal week! Btw hope 10yo went ok and didn’t make the week worse.
January 29, 2013 at 6:42 am
I know, wasn’t it! My best boy is home and doing great, they also found he needed a tooth extraction but it hasn’t slowed him down at all lol. Will know results in a week.
