A Look at Aldor vs Scryer Allegiance Dilemmas

February 7, 2007 By Gitr 15 Comments

Once you venture into Shattrath City, which there really isn’t any reason why you can’t make the journey at level 60, you will be presented with a choice of picking what side to ally with. If you are like I was, you will have several questions right off the bat when you get the option. I am going to attempt to clear up the muddy water.

You are directed upon finding the city to go to the city center. After that, you speak with Khadgar, who was very close to Midvh (Read more at Know Your Lore: Medivh). His summoned pet gives you a tour and history of the city, which is easy XP, even if it’s a mindless 5 minutes.

Getting back to Khadgar, he makes you chose your allegiance, either to the Scryers or Aldors.

Riding Around Outlands

I bumped up my screen resolution now that I got things running smoother using Ace2 addons. I can run 1280×960 now, just fine, so I’ll be taking more screenshots of my adventures. This is an easy post today because I’m still struggling with the database and we really need full functionality ASAP. Tough to admit that I’m having difficulty, but I’m an adult, so I can do it. 🙂

Today’s Quest Log Is Full

February 6, 2007 By Gitr 6 Comments

I have been gathering quests everywhere I go and completing all of the kill this, and collect that, and see him quests that I can find. Now it is getting to the point where I have to get some help to complete some buddy quests.

I’m really getting ticked about the scarabs that spawn when I try to transmute the Blood for Boiling Blood, but I think I’m going to clear the whole stinking area and SW: Pain them to death until I get my 12. I have 4 already, so it’s just a matter of determination without having an AOE damage effect.

Hellfire Peninsula

[60] Boiling Blood Thottbot
[61] Burn It Up… For the Horde! Thottbot
[61] Zeth’Gor Must Burn! Thottbot
[62] Disrupt Their Reinforcements Thottbot
[62] Grillok “Darkeye” (Group) Thottbot
[64] Balance Must Be Preserved Thottbot

Slow Posting Day…Crazy Day at Work

February 6, 2007 By Gitr 6 Comments

Some days are like this. I’m pretty much on-call a lot in the office for the emergency documents or the trouble with Word getting it to cooperate with the authors’ end goals. I usually do big documents that let me really dig in and work on them for days at a time. I really enjoy knowing what I’ll be doing tomorrow.

Gitr’s GUI for Happy Minimalistic Playing

February 6, 2007 By Gitr 2 Comments

I finally decided to put all of my addons together into a package for all of you who commented on it last week. You can take and leave anything in there, but I highly recommend trying all of them. It includes 15 or so Ace2 addons, so you can get the WoWAceUpdater to keep them going smoothly.

I hope you like it, and drop me a line with your reactions to my compilation. Even an Irish in Denmark might want to use this package.

Ding 61, Entered Shattrath City, Allegiance Pending

February 5, 2007 By Gitr 6 Comments

I can’t decide which allegiance to go for, so I’m not choosing yet. My +dmg is around 250 now. One funny story: a priest named Healzez asked me for a port to Org. He was kind enough to call himself an idiot.

I finished quite a few quests to get that much XP before dinner. I have reached the end of about 5 quests that are all 2-man quests with elite mobs now. It’s a bit frustrating because most of the guild is in other zones already, but I’ll get them somehow. I really want to kill those big red guys by the Fallen Sky crystal.

I got in on another Ramparts run, my fourth, with Travi, a guildie Mage. We had a 65 tank and a 64 druid. The druid wanted to heal. I went all out damage with Vampiric Embrace. Here is what that yielded, #1 overall Damage+Healing:
