You can now buy a Celestial Steed flying mount for every toon on your account from the Blizzard store. The Blizz store doesn't take my card, so meh.

They got deleted when I ran Blizz's repair tool. I did have them saved somewhere else on my computer, but it doesn't save all my custom settings in HealBot.

I should probably put it on a flash drive or something.

Oooh, that's cool. I'm 10 kinds of broke right now, so it's gonna have to wait until my boss wants to start paying me again.

Do you use PayPal? You could probably get someone with a US card to buy you one and give you the code and pay them back via PayPal if you have an account.

It's fine, turns out I could use a different card.

Yeesh, there's a 7-hour queue in the store.

Maybe I should design a pretty collection of pixels and sell it to hundreds of thousands of people for $25 a pop.

I got one for each of my accounts

They are purty!

And I bet they make a FORTUNE off the sale!!

I've seen a few wandering about. Tempted but...

On another note, I've been having trouble with clearing out my merchant buyback with Murimli. It won't reset when I log off or even when I exit WoW entirely.

Last patch it stopped clearing when you log out. Makes it easier to get stuff back you accidentally deleted.

Hypothesis: Going with 2 healers and an extra dps would result in faster slime kills, meaning less explosions, meaning less healing required as well as more boss dps time.

Let's try it! And with Asta as the off-tank then I live all the time!

That's worked in similar situations... worth a try.

So, did I miss something interesting happening in Vent?

Some jerk logged on and screamed. Was very annoying so the password was changed. Don't know who it was.

Huh. Odd.

With Cataclysm, the way raiding works will be altered once again.

10- and 25-man raids will share the same loot. To award 25-man raids more than 10-man ones, they will just drop more of the same loot per player - more actual items, more emblems/badges/tokens, more gold, etc. Heroic mode will continue to reward better loot.

Also, something about pet foxes. WANT.

If people keep asking you how your pet got so big, there's probably a reason.

Hehe. That is still a funny bug, years on.


In other news, you know what this screenshot is?

The Blasted Lands. Yeah. Wow.

whoa

Watched a few different Sindragosa videos yesterday. I think we can do it. The movement in this fight doesn't seem any more complicated than Putricide or Blood Princes. Seeing how movement is the only thing that ever gives us trouble, I think we can get it down today or tomorrow.

Jhekaar will be out the next two weeks, so it means tanking will likely be Kysen/Siliskor with Gorvan/Vel/Aber/Jhem/Irvea DPSing and Kel/Storm/Heleina healing.

Vellinger brought his mage back to Alliance, so if we need more range that is a solid option.

If everyone shows up that will be a very strong group. I like our chances.

I've started watching the vids on Tankspot, but Splug's voice on the 25 man vid is so dull I keep spacing out and missing bits.

Edit: I want to smack the tank in the 10 man video upside the head for his terrible positioning of the boss.

If you can get past the accent in the voiceover and the horrible UI used by the Warrior in this vid, it has a nice breakdown of the fight and points out what all the abilities and debuffs look like and how to handle them.
