Happy!: yesss got into a Heroic train after servers went back up! We did Violet Hold, Nexus, and Gun'drak ... unfortunately, not a single upgrade, just the badges and about 20 stone shards. :[
But, hey!: I won the roll for both Frozen Orbs I actually rolled on, though, and so I'm set for crafting the two epic Leatherworking thingies!
Happy: I got my explorer title, as well as a new name.
There's actually a Dora the Explorer on Emerald Dream. It's a Night Elf DK (which makes you wonder how long he had that name reserved) that belongs to one of the Alliance-side guys who sometimes hang out in Shattered Oath's vent, so we basically try to kill him as often as possible.
Heh it's actually Dora with a stupid accent over one of the letters. The person who has Dora exists but rarely logs on.
Honestly I don't think it's funny at all, certainly not funny enough to pay gold or real money to get a name change to reference it. People are weird.
I'm in a ramps group full of DKs that think they don't need a healer. Whatever, I'm on my 63 rogue, not like I'm going to die. :P I just hope this lasts until the first boss and his sword drops.
I believe it, but the highest level keeps dying (he's mostly retarded). And the dickbag who uses lol as punctuation won the /need roll for the Shadowrend Longblade. Not a whole lot point for me to finish this instance.
EDIT: Yeah, one too many 'brb's pushed me over the edge, screw it.

Angry Time: So I thought maybe I'd try to do Archavon again today. But the Alliance holds Wintergrasp. And will continue to do so until the servers are hotfixed.
Heroic Archavon down whoo! I actually don't understand what this was all about, someone just told me to and then I did and I saw that there wasn't any leather on the corpse so I grabbed my badges and achievements and left

He's a bullshit easy boss whose loot table is a catchall mishmash of T7 and PvP pieces (not tokens, the pieces themselves). He hits about as hard as his trash and his only clever thing is eating the main tank and requiring some other tank to taunt. The whole instance from zoning in to passing out loot takes about 10 minutes.
Blah. Today's not been a good day for instances. Tried heroic Drak'tharon Keep, we wiped 5 times and didn't even get out of the first hallway. Heroic AN, got one boss down, but 5 more wipes before people leave. All Archavon attempts cancelled by Blizzard coders until further notice. At least I got an offer to go to Naxx later tonight.
yeah the whole not being able to capture wintergrasp thing is kinda annoying
i got the honour but it just stayed alliance controlled
Don't feel so bad because on Windrunner they are calling it Haala 2
Even if you bombed one guard the lfg/lfm would start
Does it really flip sides every 3 days? because that would explain the rush to do all the Wrath instances the other day
No, the other side is supposed to have a chance to retake it every 3 or so hours. Except that currently it's bugged out and Horde cannot recapture it, no matter what they do.
I noticed the heroic vendors in Daralan sell some of the armor tokens is this the 10 man armor tokens or the 25 man armor tokens?
Both. You can get T7 (normal) chest and gloves from Emblems of Heroism that drop in heroics and 10-man raids, or T7 (heroic) legs and shoulders from Emblems of Valor, which you can only get by running 25-mans.
Slightly baffling: the cost of Frozen Orbs. Seriously, are they worth 500+ gold? Considering how easy they are to get compared to nethers back when people were first doing BC heroics, I figured they'd be way cheaper.
It's alright though, because I'm looking to sell them, not buy them. Epic flying is that much closer.

Supply and demand.
There are more people wanting to use them for crafting than there are people getting them, and most of the people wanting to get them are doing the heroics themselves and keeping the orbs, so there arent many entering the market.
Also, there wasnt as much cool BoE Primal Nether shit at the beginning of BC.
Update: Well, my first visit to New Naxx didn't go as badly as the earlier-run heroics yesterday, though not quite as good as hoped. It was pretty much a PUG run through Spider Wing, got Anub'Rekhan down in 2 or 3 tries (and, during these fights, I discovered I was the highest DPS out of anyone there), spent some time pondering Faerlina until we discovered that killing an add (in the 10-man instance) has the same effect as MCing and casting Widow's Embrace did in the 25-man and 40-man versions. Which was convenient, as we didn't have a priest. People leave, replacements come in, and eventually we just barely down her as her last frenzy gets going.
Maexxna, two tries to get her below 30% and wipes. Mistimed the web spray. But if we get most of the same people tomorrow night, it should work out better.
Happy: Healed my first 25-man Naxx and generally kept up with our best pre-BC priest for effective healing. I know healing isn't all about meters but that's at least a start. Everyone kicked my ass on dispel/cure totals though, have to be faster on the mass dispelling of AOE frost nova on trash I guess. >.>
Hate: One-shot all of spider and plague wings, and Raz, but then kept tripping up on Gothik. We kept sending more DPS from live to dead side to try to make up for dead side getting overrun halfway through the event, but it still kept ending in dead side filled with mobs and too much AOE for just me and a paladin to heal through... Bleh.
Happy: Nice long weekend... should get to at least 78.
Hate: I took up engineering from scratch becuase I wanted the motorcycle and I found out yesterday that the base amount im going to have to spend is 12,500 for unfarmable mats (The only place you can get them is from a vendor in Storm Peaks) on top of some very pricey and hard to get farmable mats. You can sell the bikes though...

uhh, I already have several of my own, just don't feel like packing any of them up & driving it across the state only to set it up on the floor of their spare bedroom for 3 days.

I watched my sister's apartment for a weekend a few months ago. You bet your ass I packed up my 24" monitor, my full tower, my shitty old 4 speaker + woofer sound system, and everything else I could possibly need. Pain in the ass. Totally worth it.
That is why I finally bought a new laptop. It doesn't run things as nicely as my desktop but it's good enough and Christmas weekend will be so much more tolerable.

My parents are vehement anti-gamers. They wouldn't let me touch their brand spankin new desktop with a 60 yard pole if they thought it was for gaming. It was one of the major reasons why i broke down and finally got my laptop: tired of having to pack up the desktop for winter breaks (and feeling bad about it when I went home for weekends)

I'm glad you think I'm weird.
You do have to be a little careful on the last boss, though.
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
EDIT: Yeah, one too many 'brb's pushed me over the edge, screw it.
Eh, drop an Anti-Magic Zone and the fight is fine.
Also useful for the Engineer Orcs in Blood Furnace.

Hate: Ran out of herbs on the last 4 points so had to buy stuff. Atleast it's over.
i got the honour but it just stayed alliance controlled
hate: was the only plate wearer in the instance and nothing even dropped except for paladin healing chest.
Damn boomkin died like 5 times and we did wipe once on the last boss.
Break time.

Yay I am now level 77! should I finish Zul'drak or look for something else that is not as boring?
Happy: where it died partially confirms my theory of it's patrol path.
Exhausting: 8 heroics in a row

Sad: Only 72
Kinda Happy Again: Have been doing other stuff that I'm only 72

Anxious: 3500g/5000g for my epic flying skill. I'm getting sick of 60% flying..
Yes.
Happy yet sad at the same time: First one to hit 80 in my guild by 5 levels
Extra Sad: A large part of my guild are rocks and don't really know how to play. RL friends are sometimes FTL.
