Fuggin Fel Reavers

Of all the things in Outland, they ain't me favorite.

Humans Count Slow

This glubbernunker been standing outside the privy in Honor Hold fer several days now, demanding access to the facilities therein. He says he's a-goin' in at the count of 10, but he ain't gone in yet. Guess he counts real slow.

On a related subject, What. The. Fuhg. Are. They. Feeding. The. Soldiers???!?!!? Great googly moogly. Unless the poor bugger inside is dead or sumthin' he has got some serious business going on. And the fellah on the outside ain't crapped his britches yet.

I'm thinkin they needs more fiber in they's diet.

Note to Self

Dear Ratter,

After yer done scoping out Oshu'gun with yer Mulitgasm Googles and yer flappin' back ta Shattrath on yer dragon to see if there's another Badge of Justice in yer supply box reward, ya think ya could pause fer just a sec to put yer Helm of Evil Laughter back on before picking a fight with a buncha blood elves? Thankee.

The Beginning of the End of the Beginning

Well, I done dinged 60 yesterday. So real quick I teleports meself off to Ironforge and rides down the road to the sheepdog farm and gets me a new high-speed armored sheepdog for to go cruising on. Took nearly alls me gold, but it be worth it. Least I didn't haveta slog through the mud and ruin me booties.

I's also been replacing me gear pretty quick in Outland. New tunic, new pants, new staff, new wand, new ring. Gonna be picking up a new hat and maybe shoulders too pretty soon. All part of the big plan to get ya readies fer the big push.

Now is when the leveling slows down a bit. No more 2.3 buffing. Lots of nagas and ogres and arakkoa and space mummies and demons ta deal with to gets to 70. So is not the end, nor even the end of the beginning, but it do be the beginning of the end of the beginning. Or maybes the end of the beginning of the end of the beginning. Or the beginning of the end of the beginning of the end? Whatevers. You buggers know what I mean.

Some Thoughts on Weapons and Professions

"A true warrior forges his own axe."

Is what I were brought up to believe. And I's lived it that way. Copper Battle Axe. Heavy Mithril Axe. Light Skyforged Axe. Truesilver Champion (olay, that were a sword, but still). The Planar Edge. Lunar Crescent. But the world done got more complicated than it were growing up in Durotar. I can't always follow them simple rules. I done made deals with Night Elves and killed buggers 'cause they'd pissed of Draeninaninies and retrieved all sortsa weird crap for gnomes. I don't even want to think about how many gaskets me dad would blow if he knew I were putting on me dwarf disguise and helping them Alliance glubberthunkers (though he'd probably slap me on the back and say "well done, lad!" if he heard about how I'd done curled Miss Proudmoore's toes). But I digressifiies.

Thing is, I think I wants to learn engineering. And there ain't enough room in me head fer too many skills, so I'd eithers haveta forget mining or forget smithing. Trying to be a engineer and a smith withouts being able to mine would be too dang expensive, so that's out. If I learns engineering I could make this and this and this and, whoo doggy! these. Which'd rock me socks. But I'd haveta stop using me two crafted axes, and that would suck if I weren't able ta replace'em. So what I gonna do?

Well, maybes I can replace'em. I's nearly exalted with the Aldorks, at which point I'll be able to pick me up one of they's Vindicitator's Brandy swords. Not quite as nifty as The Planar Edge, but should be adequates fer farming when tank specced. For a two-hander, I gots me some options. Right now I could go talk to them simple country orcs in Nagrand and get me a Hellscream's Willy, which be a strange name fer an axe, but whatevers. Is an all-offensive weapon, like me Lunar Crescent, so less than ideal fer PvPing, and the dps would be a noticeable drop, but I could maybe handle it for the short-term. Then there's the Legionfoe from the new Dorkbabies faction - comparable overall, but got a bunch of stamina for the PvPing. Longer-term, the best way ta go would be the Gladiator's Decapitator, which would be a rel upgrade from even the Lunar Crescent but is gonna require a lot more honor farming in AV. So, I'll be working on that but it's gonna take a while 'cause I got other chickens ta chase.

So, there's me thoughts. I been stashing away mats, in case I ever decides to go down this road, and I thinks the time may be Real Soon. Got about enough to power-level to 300, and some of what I'll need fer the next 50. If I does make the plunge, you buggers'll be the firsts to know.

Yer a fool!





There. Much simplers this way than all that trickery stuff.

Dunno Why They's All Surprised

Is not like I hide me virility and general awesomeness behind a cloak of false modesty or nuthins. But apparentlies me being in Outland yesterday caught some glubbernunkers what ain't been paying attention off-guard.

On a different subject, has anyone else noticed that Doom Lord Kazzak sounds just like the Humungous?
Is like he took off the mask, sprouted some wings, and flapped off to Hellfire Peninsula, where he spends his day hollering "ALL MORTALS WILL PERISH!" and stomping on anyone clumsy enough to get too close while stealing his precious juice or chasing down an incandescent fel spark. Is really annoyings having to listen ta him jabber when I's all the way over in Honor Hold, killing fel orcs and whatnot. Here's some advice folks: don't aggro the demon with the 30-foot sword - he ain't that friendly, and you ain't that uber. Wish the guild would stop wasting time one-shotting Tidewalker and do something useful, like shutting this guy up.
