Hitting a Slump; Work Sucks

February 15, 2007 By Gitr 5 Comments

I won’t be getting much playing time before we leave for vacation in Canada on Saturday. We are going to the wife’s house for dinner tonight to see her sister who has to stay here because her college courses have some exams next week, and Friday night, I’m going to bed right around the time I finish eating.

We leave at 5am Saturday morning and will stop in Richmond, VA for the night before continuing through to Ottawa. I hope the snow comes down less than expected or that the snowplows have time to clear the way before we get there. Forecasters are calling for 20″ of snow for parts of New York, and we have to pass right on through to Syracuse to cross the border.

I’m taking the evening off from playing. I’ll see you all online tomorrow. Have a good time.

Buttered Monkeys to the Rescue

So far, I have 8 signatures for the charter that I started passing around last night. There was one dissenting member that didn’t particularly care for the name, so we need to iron that out with a vote before I get the last signature.

It was not easy gettin the charter in my hot, twitchy hands to take around because of the bugged guards in the new cities. I first encountered a guard who was definitely not speaking English, and then the Guild Master was offering me the guards’ usual list of “who do you want to find?” That was pretty annoying, but we soon had server problems and when I came back on, everything was working fine in the end.

Ding, Ding, 14 for Bloodr; Almost Have a Guild

February 13, 2007 By Gitr 12 Comments

It looks like my offer to get some of us together to play new toons on Burning Legion was well-received. We had 5 players on at once last night, and Christine and Scott signed up after I went to bed. Kinless is in Europe, but I’m determined to get him in somehow. Glenn joined us as Mene, the ‘lock, and was in the starting area with Mindkiller and Snowstormer. I think that is enough to get a guild going.

Now for the name selection. I was pondering this on my way in to work today and was hitting a wall (mentally) on something descriptive without being obvious about what our commonality is. Then I went the humorous route, and that fizzled. I’ll keep thinking about it today, but I am certainly open to suggestions.

Bloodr is halfway done with level 14 and hit honored with Tranquillien in Ghostlands. The first several quests give you +1000 rep, followed by +250 for the next few. I got some nice purchases from the quartermaster:

Bogwalker Boots – Friendly
Tranquillien Flamberge – Friendly
Batskin Belt – Honored

First 10 People Get Free Gold

I want to always have people to run with on Burning Legion. As a casual gamer, that will take a few people. My guild, including my main are all over 60 in the Outlands now, and it’s hard to come by good pairing partners. I enjoyed playing with Kelthias last week, so I’d like to continue the trend.

Level 10 Blood Elf Hunter Questline Walkthrough

February 12, 2007 By Gitr 61 Comments

I couldn’t find any quick information on who it is that starts the questline to tame my first pet, so I’m making it. I remembered that for my dwarf hunter, the trainer was not in Ironforge, so I figured that the trainer for Blood elves would not be in Silvermoon. Wrong.

Upon reaching level 10, hunters gain the ability to tame their pets, after completing a questline. The questline starts with Oninath in Silvermoon (84,26). He sends you to Farstrider Retreat to speak with Lieutenant Dawnrunner (60,63).
