Champion of the Naaru

Last night Kuanchichi and Viljo killed Magtheridon. They both got "Champion of the Naaru" as a title.

It was a pretty impressive kill. Darkfall went in and one-shot Maggy's obnoxious pit lord butt. The cube clickers clicked in a timely fashion. And fortunately Viljo wasn't one of them, because I disconnected in the middle of the fight for a moment. We didn't even have anyone die at all. Which I give a lot of credit to Kuanchichi for, since Kuan was on group heals.

After we took the guild first kill pic Viljo sat down and ate a Delicions Chocolate Cake. He was Very Happy! So happy that fireworks shot out his butt!

it's only 11:30, and

beyond Silithus... way beyond

So yesterday we decided to clear the last of the outdoor Silithus quests with Vhaas and Khyrie. Just as we went to turn in Silithis brains and rubbings, a couple guildies farming Sanguine Hibiscus asked if we wanted to go through Underbog with them.

We were intending to swap to Kuan and Viljo but decided sure, why not. After a relatively painless run (that was my third time ever in non-heroic UB) in which I moved a lot of Vhaas' buttons around, we had each picked up a bunch of upgrades we couldn't equip for another level, and Belore hit 60!

The next level didn't seem too far away, and we were having fun, so we ended up staying on the Alliance toons. Now they are 63 and have mostly cleared the Tehemet(?) quest hub. We got the Telredor flight point as well. That's a very pretty place. I was a bit surprised that they quests diverge from Horde quite a bit.

Meanwhile Belore is quite behind in his abilities! This afternoon we will go pick up the taming needed for that. Then swap back to Kuan and Viljo, who very much need to farm mats up for raids.

Magister's Terrace part 2

Last night we signed on late, with the intention of getting Teltanara and Eeyan keyed for Heroic Magister's. We went through and got it done with relative ease, since the other three in our group were Darkfall (or ex-Darkfall) mains in full epics...

Now we can go back to playing almost-not-quite normally, without that hanging over our heads. Eeyan is now sitting on 3 spiffy gems, and has no sockets to put them in. I will need to get him some badges...! And Kuan, I am determined to get him the badged healy shield, and after that work on the other gear.

Hyjal, which was 2nd on AQ opening, is apparently 9th right now in Sunwell progress. That is No Good, but I wonder if the problem is not enough people know about the site that tracks it and the addon it requires. I sure didn't before I sat down to compose this post.

Mining

Last night Hyjal was down so I took a look at where Khyrie is. She is parked in Silithus with Vhaas until they finish the quests there. Also the thorium is quite rich in the hives there so we have some vain hope that she will be able to mine the money for Vhaas to get epic riding skill and mounts for both of them.

Anyway a stack plus of Thorium later Khyrie prowled out of Hive Ashi. Cat form does have it's advantages. Also the bugs are no longer elite so it's pretty easy for even a resto druid to prowl in, kill the single mob guarding the thorium, mine, and prowl to the next mining node.

The ore was smelted and sent to Hokushi so hopefully there will be more money for epic riding soon...

well... also...

Kuan and Viljo grabbed Isd and Ratrider and ran through Magister's Terrace, as well; they are now keyed for the heroic. It was pretty damn easy, which was a big change from the two attempts we've done before with other folks who just couldn't deal with the last pull. I love running instances with Isd.

Next, to get Eeyan and Teltanara keyed. But that will have to wait until a later day.

Still, I anticipate running this many times. I will not have Kuan hit 350 on 2H Axes again...

Kuan's weapons maxxed

He just hit some Wretched upside the head with his Slavemaster Axe of the Elder and 350!

w00t!
