Kevin's Watch

From this day forward, I shall be known as... the Orange Avenger (At least until I change my outfit ).




(Alternate punchline: I suspect I may have been Tango'd.)


(If I finally manage to find a pair of Felsteel Gloves and they turn out to be orange, I don't think I'll ever stop laughing. )

WOW! Purty!!

According to the email, the testing is scheduled to go on until 31 December 2008, so unless they decide to end that early it's looking like another January-ish release for the next expansion.

That is seriously cool. Do they make you take a vow of silence, or can you share all the details?

Speaking of WotLK, has everyone seen the new talent trees? They're on the main page of Thottbot, so they might be old news. I've been out of the loop lately. Nothing for hunters posted yet, but the new warlock talents look pretty amazing.

Oh - and I got the Attack Plans on about the sixth kill today, so they either changed the drop rate or I was insanely unlucky before.

The talents were leaked early on, but Blizzard officially allowed the info to be shared just last week, I think. Hunters and Paladins are getting the most work done, so Blizzard are leaving them until last.

Warlock talents are good, yeah--you get to transform into a demon!

Edit:

Was just looking around at some of the sites that have WotLK info and saw:
"When the beta starts the NDA will be lifted"

By the time I've finished dailies tomorrow, I'll be Exalted with the Shattered Sun Offensive. No wonder "of the Shattered Sun" is everywhere. Ding 70, and all you need is one week of dailies to have the rep and cash to buy it.

I wanted the title in the beginning when only a few people had it... now that it's everywhere... meh.

I think I made it to revered and then I had enough money for my epic flyer (I already halfway there when they opened up Quel'Danas) and I haven't done a single one since. I was also doing it purely for the money, so I didn't bother doing the one that gets you extra rep for 10g.

It's just Netherwing for me now, I'm determined to have my shiny dragon before it's cruelly taken away from me in the expansion. The Netherwing dailies are a lot less pleasant than the Shattered Sun ones though, very tricky and time consuming. I'm currently about 1/4 through honored, so I've a heck of a long way to go!

I'm up to the last of the Neutral quests on Netherwing. Need my epic go go any further than Neutral, though, and I'm only at 500g right now.
Plus, when I hit Exalted with SSO I'm likely to go for a shield, neck, and maybe some other stuff, so that'll set me back a few days more...

Hmm. Will they not be available when the expansion comes out?

So I just heard from one of my friends that in Blizzard's latest patch they changed it so you can get riding at 30. I'm really excited about that!

That patch isn't live yet, but it's coming soon. Enjoy it.

I read that last week. You'll be able to get a mount at lvl 30 and the training for it will be 35g, I believe.

I will! Now I've just gotta get those two characters of mine up to 30...they're both sitting at around 27...

Well whaddaya know, the patch is live! I had no idea it was coming out today, heh.


Edit: I was looking up Haris Pilton to see if the items she sells are really as useless as they look (they are), and I learned that if you have the right headpiece equipped you can see the ghost of Ricole Nitchie.

HAHAHAHA!! i know two lvl 30's upstairs jumpin up and down in their offices today!!! (jerre and jhemtar) congrats fellas!!!

Jhemtar never supports lowering the bar, even when he benefits.

That being said, I have the cash, I'll be taking advantage.

that's okay monkeyman...there's always somebody with a bigger mount.
heh.

Yep, they didn't change the epic at all, right?

Wonder how fast I can get my rogue to 30...
