Constraxx



Grand Nagus

Sela:
Sela reached 120.
Finished Drustvar and the In Teldrassil's Shadow achievement to unlock the dark eyes on Night Elves.


Trelane:
Did A Loa of a Tale with Trelane on stream on saturday and played the music Sharm made for each of the 15 tales as well whenever i found one. It was great fun to do, chat with the people and listen to some awesome music, the Tales of the Loa music among it.


Keeler:
Created a pacifist Night Elf Rogue. I named her Keeler, after Edith Keeler from ST:TOS’s episode “City On The Edge Of Forever”, since she came up as one of the few characters that where true pacifists. One of my favorite TOS episodes.
She reached level 10 earlier today, so she is ready for registration on the WoW Challenges website.
Rogues can dig, dig, dig while stealthed.
Looking forward to 20+ when i can do archy.

Hello everyone!


I gained a level in WoW this weekend!  It doesn't sound like much, but it's something.  My priest on Bleeding Hollow dinged 116. I forgot how long it takes to get a level during the last stretch.  I also realized that I have not really done any dungeons this expansion, and that may help rekindle my interest in leveling since it feels like I have done almost all of the leveling quests.


Here is this week's Blast from the Past.  We're back up to episode 369 (teehee). Enjoy!

Addon.png
Each week GrandNagus takes a closer look at some of the most useful World of Warcraft addons out there.
Addon of the week: Livestock


Livestock: For all your companion needs

Now that your pets and mounts don't take up space in your bags, Livestock lets you manage them intelligently.
This addon sorts your companions into land mounts, flying mounts, and vanity pets.
Then, with the push of a button, you can randomly summon any of the three, or designate a favorite pet to have out on command.
You can also have Livestock always keep a pet by your side, and have it dismiss your vanity pet when you are in PVP battle and it would give away your position.
You can even tell Livestock to put you on a random land or flying mount depending on whether the area you're in lets you fly or not. Underwater or in combat, Livestock can also be configured to cast certain spells relating to travel, such as Path of Frost or Ghost Wolf.
You can even designate certain pets or mounts to be called in certain zones or subzones. Ride in style on a Frostwolf Howler while in Alterac Valley, and then switch to your favorite color of Mechanostrider while in Ironforge. Livestock will let you make sure that you have your good luck pet out whenever you're in Ulduar or Trial of the Crusader.
You can summon critters, land mounts, and flying mounts in various ways.

This week in WoW:
Noblegarden until the 29th.
World Quest Bonus Event starts
Volunteer Guard Day is on the 28th.
Only one week off from Children’s Week

We got the first hint at Alpha / Beta Vanilla / Classic WoW last week
Talk about stuff NOT in Vanilla / Classic vs. retail WoW



What We've Been Doing:



Aprillian



Constraxx

4th Alliance to reach Max Level, Human Warlock.
1 Character to reach Max level on 2nd account a Goblin Mage for fast transport anywhere.
1st Alliance Mage on Earthen ring to make it past 100, Worgen Arcane level 104 Mage.
Thousands of Grisly trophies were collected across 3 accounts, I can’t stop myself.

Priest, Rogue, Paladin, Warlock, all low level skilling up to level 20 to be able to collect the fragments from archeology to help speed level.

Legion Invasions / Bonus Objectives were immensely useful to blow past Legion in 2 or 3 invasions.

Battle for Azeroth Incursions when they are up, 1 character multiboxes, while the paladin collects about 20 mobs as people keep running through the zone dotting everything.

Mage needs multiple charges of Ice Block, too many deaths because frost seems to pull aggro with the bloody Water elemental.

Arcane mages seem viable no matter what kind of gear you wear.

Doing Elegon netted me a lovely pet called Comet.  Like Elegon it is translucent.
                              



Grand Nagus

The little Rogue reached Kul’Tiras and dinged 114, is 78% towards 115 now.

Hello everyone!

Here's the last installment of the way back Blast from the Past :)  In episode 124 we'll find out if Aprillian dinged 77 in time, if Ashayo actually handed over 6000 gold, and more!

Real life raid boss is tough, hopefully will get around to some sort of leveling soon ;(
