2.  Playing with my first pick up group with some other players online and actually feeling like a competent part of the team.  My gnomish feet were running circles around the poor mobs while my rogue was slashing up a storm.

3.  Realizing I could make money by offering professional guild charter signing – you have to have 20 signatures before you can created a guild so people are constantly asking for signatures.

4.  Grabbing a ton of gear from the auction house thinking I was “pimpin” out my gnome, only to find that I could have saved money and just quested some more and gotten the same exact gear for free.  At the very least I did feel awesome for a full day.  As illustrated to the right.

5.  Participating in the Lunar Festival and Winter Veil Feast.  I wasn’t smart enough to take a screen shot of the Winter Veil Feast (was a Christmas-ish themed event) but I did grab one of the Lunar Festival that’s currently going on.  Both were awesome events that had quests and special items dedicated to them.  Seeing the Lunar Festival day made me search for what other events are planned and part of me wants to put them on my calendar just to see how each one is set up in the world.

It’s an role playing game set in a world that has its residents polarized into the two factions of  Horde and Alliance.  What sets this apart from other RPGs is the fact that it’s played exclusively online and is populated by players that you can interact with, duel with, chat with, laugh with, dance with, loot with, guild with, along with other random buffoonery mixed in for good measure.

….Welcome back, so yea I’ve felt the need to attempt playing WoW for the first time.  In the past I’ve dabbled but never got a character past maybe level 20 within the game.  I’m currently playing a Gnome Rogue with Mining and Engineering as my professions.

So far it seems interesting enough.  It has the same set up as many RPGs I’ve played over the years have used.

-Step 1 Get Quest

-Step 2 Complete Quest

-Step3 Rinse and Repeat.

The fact you get to at least share some of the monotony with other people is a definite plus in its favor.  There’s something satisfying when you coordinate an attack on a particularly hard monster and take him down or the even more satisfying impromtu dance parties that occur soon after.  It’s like a fantasy themed chat room that also lets you walk around killing shit until you get some free stuff.

Current WoW Mood: Meh I’m right clicking copper on a hillside so I can click another button to make copper bars soon after…yea it’s even worse than it sounds.  I need me a WoW suga mama to fund my lust for sexy gnomish rogue clothes.
