Little Busy Here
Anybody else get sucked back into WoW thanks to the new expansion? When I stopped playing, Naxxramas was still being farmed, Ulduar was still being learned, and the Argent Tournement had JUST started set up. Icecrown Citadel was still a distant dream.
Now I have no idea what’s goin on! I don’t know much about the current high level content anyway. I’ve rolled brand new characters and have been trudging through awesome new/old Azeroth. It’s good times, but I can’t wait to get back up to raid level again and learn what that’s all about.
IceCrown Citadel (ICC), I didnt do much in. I was able to clear the first section *Lower Spire*
The Argent Tournament I cleared completely, one of my favorite instances. NO TRASH MOBS! Just bosses!
Ulduar I did not finish, took me around 6 hours to get near the end…only to say we would finish it tomorrow and not continuing.
I dont play WoW anymore, my friends fill me in on a few things they do…so i keep somewhat updated.
@ ultimatuim- But there ARE trash mobs when you are fighting the priesty priest or the pally
Anyways, I ran out of game time and never got to ICC. I plan on returning to the game soon, but my laptop died on me (motherboard is shot), and the person who is fixing it is taking his sweet time, so idk when I’ll even have the ability to play again.
I decided that if I can’t play the game, I would read about it. The War of the Ancients trilogy, Day of Dragon, etc. etc. And, I’ve just gotta say, if the current trend of the Aspects going mad/evil and needing to be killed continues, I’mma be really sad when we have to kill Nozdurmu and/or Alexxstraza. Malygos has always been a bit crazy in the head, and you are introduced to Nelfarion after he’s already betrayed everyone, and since I played WoW before reading the books, I’ve already kind’ve given in to the fact that Ysera’s started on the path of Malygos, but as for the other two Aspects… well, Nozdurmu is amazing (have you read Well of Eternity? In the beginning he practically becomes the Jesus of Azeroth, just without dying. Idk where it goes from there since I’m still reading it tho.) Well, back to reading, enjoy Cata!
I’m not sure, but I think Ysera managed to escape the Nightmare the same time Malfurion did. Or is she still stuck in there?? There’s theories that Nozdurmu is already crazy and that the leader of the Infinite Dragonflight, the ones messing with the timeline in the Caverns of Time, is actually a split personality of Nozdurmu. Man I love WoW lore 😀
Norzdurmu’s corruption is only speculation, with reasons though.
Ysera has less reasons to roll by though, as long as we stay out of the Emerald Dream I think we won’t make an enemy of her.
(was kinda sad Blizz killed the nightmare in a book, easily could’ve made an expansion just off the dream)
I’m not going by any definite things though, I’m saying that following the pattern that we’ve started…. Well, following the pattern we’ve started it will be another 1011 years (give or take a hundred) before the next Aspect goes insane. Deathwing went shortly before the War of the Ancients, and Malygos went during World of Warcraft. And I feel like it would be a bad idea to go into the Emerald Dream, since that’s almost completely druid territory. I mean…. Cenarius wouldn’t teach Tyrande how to go into the Emerald Dream (poaching in Elune’s territory he called it), and the people who would become mages aren’t likely to be able to enter the Emerald Dream. It just feels wrong for any class other than druids except for maybe shamans to go into the Emerald Dream
There is the odd quest here and there that has you enter the dream, but only briefly and for a very specific purpose. The only people the are really allowed or supposed to be in there are druids though.
That’s basically what I meant, Emerald Dream is fine for druids as Ysera allows them to. Other classes not so much. The one quest is as Ence said, briefly for a specific purpose.
Also, Malygos’ insanity didn’t show until WoW but he pretty much just slipped away from the rest of the world after the War of the Ancients.
The Real plot twist will be will we have to kill Alexestra? She seems to be taking alot of authority in the world and eventually the other dragonflights may rebel against her. (This is more of a random theory that could happen based on some of the plot twists Blizzard has done recently, such as Garrosh for Warchief)
Not to be a retard or anything, but, where does Onyxia stand in all this?
She’s dead 😛
Actually shes back… again… Mechanical this time so at least it makes sense that shes “alive” this time. For further details kill Nefarion 😀
