[Ending]

If these dragon aspects are so huge, one wonders how Blackwing would look.

Like a three story high industrial crane. When he attacks, he whirls Unbound Cars at you.

[RWBladewing]

Spoiler for bronze dragon questlines:

As a hunter, both the future and past "me"s did nothing but stand there and melee, but when I was filling both roles I did not. This seems to imply that I have changed the timeline. Thus it's now my theory that the leader of the infinite dragonflight is me.

And on a somewhat related note, in CoT Strat, listening to Arthas' cinematic dialogue going on while he continues to attack random zombies instead of continuing the event is really funny. He's also a noob who broke my freeze trap (though not as big a noob as the tank considering I had to drop that trap in the first place to save the healer.)

[Mr Hat and Clogs]

Alexstrasza's model is freakin huge, I think I'm as big as her toe nail, and apparently Deathwing/Neltharion is larger then her!

I really hope that when they do put Deathwing in, they give him a good model, since he is supposed to be covered in adamantium plates bolted to his flesh to make him impervious to attack.

Either way I hope they continue these quests in later patches. They were a lot of fun


Arthas is an idiot. Zombies, I fear no zombies! For Lordaeron! *charges to about the 5th elite zombie down the corridor*

[Ithekro]

How would you qualify the Prince of Lorderon to the King of Stormwind? Wrynn seemed to be rather good under the Undercity. I pretty much only did AOE in that. Should have tried my chaos bolt a few times just to see how much it would have hit for with Proudmoure's buff.

Your list still leaves me concerned about Mage DPS...perhaps more than I was before I read that. For your best Mage to be 14th on that list can't be good...

and I felt kinda bad that the female Dragon got captured by the Lord of Magic dragon. i /yelled "nooooo!" and some people were like "Wtf u talkin bout?"

also, where is the Dragon KING! i hear Dragon Queen this dragon queen that, but there can't be a queen without a King, so wheres he at?

Queen Elizabeth says "hi".

The best mage is #7 on average dps, he/she just wasn't present in all the boss fights (around 50%) so his/her total is pretty low.

She says a lot of things!

isn't the dragon Arthes raised in the trailer a big one

The dragon he raised is called Sindragosa, she was the first consort of Malygos, but was killed (during the original Demonsoul incident in the War of the Ancients I think).


Did Heroic UP again, Ymiron really is easy.

Nearly have the Glory of the Hero done as well. Drak'theron ones are easy to do, but I just haven't done that on Heroic yet. Oculus ones will be annoying. Other ones I have left look like they just rely a lot on luck to get happen. No freakin clue about Gotta Go! Might be able to do it with Mind-numbing/CoT. Q_Q

She was. Or rather, she was hurled all the way to Northrend, and died from injuries before she could reach the Dragonblight. She swore revenge to every living thing during her final moments, basically making her the perfect dragon for the Lich King to raise.

I just finished a decent amount of quests in Dragonblight, and god this expansion is more awesome in so many levels then it's predecessor. Payed a visit to the Emerald Dragonshrine, where Ysera seems to be sleeping peacefully (thank the Titans for that) and did some quests for the Black Dragonflight, which once again re-affirmed my beliefs that Black Dragons are awesome.

Then came the quest-chain leading up to the Wrathgate.

Dear god.

The awesome.

This once again shows that Blizzard does listen to it's players, because I sure as hell felt like I was involved in a lore-rich world that was ever changing.

I love this game.

[Last Sinner]

Yes, those Oculus ones look tricky. Clear the relevant sky areas, the 10 constructs, along with Varos, Urom and Eregos in less than 20 minutes? Seriously, that looks like one that would require being far better geared, along with killing Anub'arak in under 2 minutes. Seriously, the adds in his underground phases take a fair while to drop. As for the don't use a particular drake colour in The Oculus...hmmm. Well, if you did a 1 red and 4 green combo, that might work for the no amber one. As for no red....I see 4 or 5 ambers being required there. Having a non-tank drake would require Eregos being virtually perma-time stopped. No green...I see a mainly amber combo because the absence of heals requires the guy to not be able to fight. A lot of those Heroic ones look like they require geared people, so don't be hellbent on getting them all yet, some of them will be out of reach.

A sweet bit of luck today. Run 3 Heroics with one group (Nexus, Gundrak and Stratholme) then 3 with another (Violet Hold, Utgarde Keep, Utgarde Pinnacle). I convince my 2nd group to let me stay in for 1 more run and do Pinnacle before they replace me with a guildie of theirs. Girdle of Bane finally dropped, right when I had enough emblems to get the belt available form there, which is about he same as what I won. 40 emblems saved by the skin of my teeth. ^^ Now I can aim for the Frostfire Robes. Also got Wyrmrest Accord Exalted in that run. The boots from that rep grind are sweet. Now I just need the bracers from Violet Hold, the legs from Halls of Lightning and maybe the wand from Azjol-Nerub and I will probably be ready to start applying to serious guilds.

Mages still do fine in end game. Probably the only class that consistently out dpses them are hunters. Speaking of which, my hunter finally dinged 80 so I can start raiding again. Still kinda torn that I didn't pick DK instead, but I'll still level it in my spare time.

Spoiler for just in case:

Yeah I liked that quest chain quite a bit. Found it especially funny that the disguise he gives you is always of the opposite gender of your character, a subtle way of showing he's a jerk. Also, I assume, based on some of the dialog, that the quest to "mercilessly wipe out the helpless scourge cultists" was supposed to be another emotion-invoking quest, but unlike the "I love you daddy" letter this one just didn't do it for me. Join the scourge (I am assuming by choice since they are humanoid mobs and not undead) to wipe out all life, and then when the evil dragon decides to kill you, you beg for mercy? Hmm, nah, good riddance.

[Ithekro]

Wouldn't it be fitting to kite her all the way to the Dragonblight to down her? She'd at least end up were she was trying to go before she died. The other dragons....or maybe just the druids, would think of that as a respectful act.

Of course they would find it less respectible if you kited her to Wyrmist Tower or Dalaren, but it was the thought that counts, right?

Spoiler:

Nah, the disguise it not always the oppesite gender, I made the black flight quests with two friends of mine and only one out of three guys became a female disguise (It was the ret pala in the party.)

Funny how you can (after you losing your disguise) say to him something like: "Ah sorry, but one of the cultist accidentally fell on my blade. Can I have a new disguise?""

The questline was just funny.

I was like: "Cool, we can help the black dragonflight. I mean... we don't really help those guys very often."
Friend: "Well... they are normaly pretty evil."
Me: "Yes, but they are black!"
Friend: "Yeah, they are the coolest dragons around!"

The "I love you daddy" quest? err... is that the Alliance equivalent of the Hordes "I love you sistah" quest? where you kill this officer of the mage hunter and find out that he/she was forced to work for the blues and was sabotaging them all the time?

This quest reminds me how many new commanders of the horde are assholes. (And that trolls even write in thier accents... Oo )

[Xacual]

No he didn't raise Sindragosa, we kill her in Coldarra for one of the Nexus questlines. I'm pretty sure he raised the 5man dragon that we fight in dragonblight.

Spoiler:

Ah, too bad, thought that was a subtle little joke they threw in there, every time I saw it happen they were the opposite gender.

Yeah, that is the Alliance equivalent of the Horde quest. As far as I know, both factions actually kill both NPCs (I know I definitely killed the troll), you just get the letter from whichever was your faction's race.

Yeah it was Singdragosa he raised. We killed Saragosa in Coldara.

[Xacual]

Damn, their names are too similar for me!

[Ithekro]

So if Deathwing is a three story crane, that means we would need to use thr FOUR WHEELS OF FURY on him along with 'locks on bikes for proper dps.

Well a weakened Saragosa.
Otherwise she'd nom'd us.
