World of Warcraft – Part 09 – Redemption

Our story so far has most followed the exploits of one Fury Warrior Blood Elf named Ramchan daring to choose a blade over magic, she set out to help her people battle the forces of the Scourge invading the lands of her people.  After traveling from Silvermoon City through the Ghostlands and defeating Dar’Khan Drathir in the Tower of the Damned and continued south into the Plaguelands to continue her quest against the Scourge corruption. The Plaguelands proved to be too difficult, filled with mighty monsters at every turn.  Ramchan did manage to make the trek through to Light’s Hope…

World of Warcraft – Part 08 – A Pirate’s Life For Me

September 19 is “Talk Like a pirate Day” and World of Warcraft has a minor event in world celebrating the event.  Travel to Booty Bay on the south tip of the Eastern kingdom and meet with Captain DeMeza to get a special “Buff” and an achievement.  The “Buff” is basically “You look like a pirate”.  It can be cancelled and reactivated if you decide you want to drop the look and doesn’t add any other bonuses.  It lasts for 12 hours. I’d never been to Booty Bay before, so I had a few new experiences.  Firsly, Booty Bay is the…

World of Warcraft – Part 07 – The Warcrafting Dead

So, I can guarantee, right now, without a doubt, that my ultimate downfall in WoW interest will be a lack of “things to do”.  It almost killed it for me the moment I left Ghostlands and finished all of the Blood Elf starting quests at level 20.  At that time, I had one single quest available, and it was a boring “go drop this thing off in Undercity”.   Granted, I found things to do, but that will only last so long.  I suppose you could wonder how I could ever run out of things to do, considering how much there…

World of Warcraft – Part 06 – Being Social

I have 3 characters on World of Warcraft that I’ve been cycling through to some extent.  One common thread on these characters I’ve found are random Guild invites.  I have no idea how they find me, I’m often alone in an area when I will suddenly be invited to a guild.  I have always declined these.  If I can’t even see you, I don’t want to be a part of your guild.  At least talk to me first. Which one guild did.  Instead of a random invite, I received a random question of why I wasn’t in a guild.  i…

World of Warcraft – Part 05 – Alliance

I need to start doing this more often, I’m starting to get a bit ahead of myself and starting to forget what I wanted to talk about.  I am trying to keep SOME level of continuity here.  When I last posted, i had mentioned the huge patch for Mists of Pandaria.  I managed to get beyond that, mostly, my laptop still hasn’t finished downloading it all.  Anyway, the update wasn’t as bad as I had thought since you can still play during the update process.  The download for WoW goes through several stages including “Playable” and “Optimal”. The ultimate issue…
