Twilight Marauder

The first time I saw this trio they were in the middle of the road. I held up and waited for them to leave.
The second time they ran into a set of the Cenarian Outriders patrolling on their mounts. I jumped in and with the help of the Outriders took the three of them down. They are pretty strong, I think the Outriders would have been dead meat without my help.

Apparently the marauders are a quest. I guess I'll try that sometime. I now know how to take 'em down!

Wolpertingers

Another really old picture. I have almost nothing in the Archives from Brewfest. I'm not sure why. Brewfest was a fun event and I enjoyed it, but I never thought to snap any screen shots.

Here, of course, is the Brewfest pet, the Wolpertinger. The Wolpertinger is cute, but that's not what's unique about this non-combat pet. To see the Wolpertinger you have to be smashed. Only in WOW would they think of that.

Bobbing For Draenei

This is an old picture, from last October, but I was going through iPhoto (yes I'm on a Mac) and I saw this. It's so odd and so WOW, I just had to post it.

Yep, she's up to her neck in apples.
I love it.

What happens to your friends?

I noticed this when I used to play Everquest Online Adventures (EQOA), but now this is occurring in WOW.

You meet someone in game, hang out, quest, visit instances, and just in general have a good time. Then one day they vanish. They stay dark on your friends list, never answer your mail, and basically never log in again.
Did they quit WOW?

Did they get hit by a falling meteor from the sky?

Did they get whacked with the Blizzard ban stick?

Who knows?

But because you only knew their WOW character, you have no way of knowing.

This is what happens in the virtual world. I guess this is just the way it is, but I have to admit this bugs me.

Helping is fun too

I've been helping my buddy Analar level up.
It was fun standing off to the side tossing an occasional heal while he battled this elite giant near Booty Bay.

I never take a healer role in a PUG, because it's such a thankless job, but I enjoy the role when helping a friend.

Romantic Picnic

This is just like the grill that you can get as one of the loot cards in the trading card game. Those things are hard to get!

So, I was surprised to get this in my box of valentine candy yesterday.

No buffs, no armor, just fun WOW stuff. I think that's the best part of this game. It doesn't take itself seriously and that keeps it interesting

The WOW Romantic Picnic:

I just realized how pathetic this is. Somebody really needs a date. Know anyone that likes green hair?

Valentines

Thanks for everyone that reads this, and comments! I'm a bit surprised, after all this isn't a "tips" blog, it's just a bunch of photos and stuff regarding my experiences.

Anyway, comment away, I'll keep up much better than I have. Thanks!

I love WOW holidays.

Here's my Valentine dress.
