Today Has Been an Amazing Day

Today has been more than Cataclysmically Superior. I'm writing this with tears of geeky, geeky joy in my eyes.

I love my tank, Laia, more than almost all my other characters. She's tanked through most of ICC. She's poked C'thun in the eye (20 levels higher :D) and mauled Ragnaros the Firelord.

But today....well....

Now I know that we're all 85, so this doesn't give me any excuse to brag.
BUT BEAR WITH ME!

...
Get it?
Bear?

Today I spent five minutes dancing around my computer room in joy.
Because today, my tank became Laia the Kingslayer.

Oh, it was fabulous. A full group of level 85s and we still wiped 3 times :D
This is the first time I've ever done an expansion. Killed the final boss and danced on his corpse. Never before have I even been able to go into raids.
I've fought Arthas before, on Eyowyn, and suffered terrible repair bills at his hands. But it was so great to actually beat the fight, to get the achievement and wear the title that "everyone" has.


This afternoon my guild went back to BWL to get one of our star hunters Chromaggus as a pet. She thought he was cute, or something.
I can't see it. He looks like a misshapen clump of purple dirt to me.
But, eh. So next awesome part of the day...we went raiding again!

And finally, I've raved about my twink Umber. She's a Subtlety rogue, specced to deliver swift and painless death to as many Horde as she can.
I want the Bloodthirsty title for her! She's almost got 3000 honor kills (don't mock) and she's not even level 22 yet :D
But today, I got an achievement I didn't think I could get.
An achievement I've only gotten on my shaman, Hiemalis, when she once roamed the BGs in her 30s.
Ironman.

Have you ever had any WoW days where everything seems to go the way you want it to be?

Kalesril and new Hunter Pets

I've been steadily plugging away at Kale, and she's now level 66 and rocking it in the Outlands. I can't wait until I can hit 69 and go tame one of those white Devilsaurs :D
She's tamed 2 pets since she hit 60...a golden wasp she named Serenity (get it? Firefly!) and this seriously pretty new cobra skin.
PVP is a lot harder in this range. I've seen -tons- of people in full level 60 raid gear. They must have dedicated friends, I'm thinking. Poor Kalesril gets slaughtered extremely quickly. Serenity is doing pretty well in PvP for a Ferocity pet.

Speaking of PvP, at the moment I am desperately trying to kill a level 66 pally in Nagrand, and he's absolutely slaughtering me. It's depressing. I blow all cooldowns and then POOF! The bubble :(
He just exorcism spams me to death. There's got to be a better way. I wonder if there are hunter PvP blogs out there? I even dragged him into Horde-owned Halaa and he still slaughtered me.
Saffron sad face D:

I am so desperate to hit 85 as Kalesril. Not for raiding, or heroics, or anything else but OH THE PETS THE PETS I WANT A GHOSTCRAWLER and one of those AWESOME SPIRIT WOLF THINGS!

I've got NpcScanner and whatever the heck the other thing is called. And much apologies for not linking to y'all. I'm lazy. You can tell by the month-absences between posts.

SHORT STORY TO END (AND BY SHORT I MEAN REALLY SHORT):

His black golden locks curled voluptuously around his glowing silver orbs. His face was immaculate, aside from the scars that tore through his well-tanned and moisturized skin and turned it into bloody lace. Kalesril was immediately attracted to him by the mysterious, bestial musk that dripped from every pore.

"Gross," she said, then turned to her NOBLE SPIDER COMPANION. "Hungry, Ghostsilk?"
The spider chittered hopefully.
Kalesril grinned, patted her on the head, and motioned at the gnome in her frost trap.
"There's lunch."

W.O.L.F.

Hey there, folks. I know you don't remember who I am anymore.
Too bad, because I have a post!
My guild is doing a project I dubbed W.O.L F., Worgen Offensive Lethality Force, where we roll worgen rogues, get them to level 15, then exp lock them and twink them. It is pretty awesome. There's my girl, Umber, and 8 other worgies. All subtlety specced. 8 shadow steps plus 8 boosted ambushes equals a whole lot of dead Horde.
We found a great website to use to help us twink our rogues out.
Linkage love goes to Shadowpanther, for his rogue twink armor guide.
Little Umber, at level 15, has 1000 health and 50% dodge. Oh yes :D.


We all unlocked when we had all the gear we could get, engineering at 150, and mining/skinning at 225. We tried out Warsong Gulch, but I like Arathi Basin better. Umber got Wrecking Ball there.

Happy New Year, people :) It's good to see you all again.
