Hammer of  Righteous woes this morning…

Sir Soulare of Andorhal, sharing with Clan of Darkness members, friends, AH customers, basically anybody who has 2 minutes to visit my alliance garrison on their level 90+.  The toy given is called “Wayfarer’s Bonfire” gives you a 1 minute buff where you feel at ease.


Archeology grind from 350 to 592 in 1 day, 4 levels up on Enhancement Shaman, 1 canoptic Jar on a spare alt.

Shinaninangs with Kyle, Grand Nagus, Tedra, and many others like Leeta.


About 3 hours on Mechwarrior 5 to refresh my brain cells after 10 hours of archeology with the occasional snoring while on a Flightpath, no Archeology related deaths, so no repair bill, tons of 100 to 200 gold vendor greys while digging.  Mechwarrior was not very enjoyable until I changed my strategy for the starting 2 missions, got rid of Jets, couldn’t figure out how to work them anyway at this point, the controls are locked or irritably difficult to change, throttle seems to be the numpad, so it forces me to remove my hand from mouse which gives me shoulder cramps, oh well, time for new joystick

Hello everyone,

Here's this week's blast from the past.  We explore episode 232 and it is the last from this era (unless you want me to continue in this timeline).

Hope you all enjoy!

Flat tired, all drained of life by Gul’dan.

Trial of the Champion, what i talked about last week is only valid on the vanilla Horde 
tabard farming. Kirin Tor and the other WotLK factions only give that amount of rep for heroic level dungeons, and i did my main farming in TotC normal difficulty. 
You can, of cause, grind rep on a lower amount, 8 or 9 rep per kill vs 20 on heroic.
Speaking of TotC, a quick reminder: You can’t run Legacy content on a boosted character for 72h after boost.
Boosted a Tauren Druid
Finished the achivement Battle on the Broken Isles finishing 30 (not all 30) pet battles on the Broken Isles, so i was happy when the achievement popped when i didn’t think i would have it done yet, so i have my max amount of pets on my account raised to 1500 now.
RAF’d my 3rd account.
Finished the Chromie quest for the Deathwing mount.

Hello everyone!

Hopefully this just makes it in.  I wanted to edit the Blast from the Past a bit more because I felt it was a bit too long at 23 minutes, but Garage Band was being a butt and I'm tired so I figured I'll just send it.   If it's too long skip it and I'll trim it for next time.

We're exploring episode 230!  I seem to have hit a string of really good ones from this era.

I'll have a personal WoW update next time :)
