Go go RP-GG [Part 7]

Ok, I bought Wrath of the Lich King the first day it came out, It was the collector's edition. Not sure why I bought the collector one, the box just looked amazing! I put the discs in and it started installing. I rooted through the box to find other goodies. There were some cards for the Tcg but I ignored them. There was a special card that had a code on it. I looked up on the Internet and it was a code to buy cookies for a pet. Cool! Also, while I was online I upgraded my account to support WotLK.

I dusted off my XBOX and slotted in the DVD in the box. It was a behind the scenes for the game. Pretty cool but all I could think about was the game. By this time Drake told me about skype and I bought a mic. We could talk endlessly, so I called him up and he also bought the collectors edition.

Mine installed first and I logged into the game. I had no idea what i wanted to do first. Make a DK or start leveling. I thought there would be plenty of time for a Death Knight so I popped on Notar. It was pretty cool. I went to the newly opened docks in Stormwind, and popped on the Northrend boat. (I thought this was the only boat to Northrend, I never noticed the one from Minethil.)

I flew through the first 2 levels and wanted a change of plan. I searched for a portal to Dalaran and made it my HS. It was a nice city, smaller than Shattrath but OK. It had a sewer but no Auction house. I wondered the Alliance area and found a portal to Wintergrasp. I didn't know what it was but I hopped in anyway. After it loaded i checked the map and I was still in Northrend. It looked like some sort of battle area, since the battle wasn't on, I couldn't use any of the Vehicles so I picked up an RP-GG and tested it out. After this mess about i checked the /who and there was only one person at level 75. That night I was really excited about waking up, it seems the only reason I went to sleep was so I could wake back up.

The game was really fun and I loved the new dungeons, it seemed that I could start fresh at level 80. That wasn't the case. Next Il go through my last few levels and some changes at level 80.

The scourge flips out! [Part 6]

Righto, the scourge event starts. I start to see some bodies in Stormwind.. It was pretty confusing. I just assumed horde attacked. I then saw a ghoul attacking a guard in the trade district.

Argent healers and forces appear in all major cities and the attacks start to increase. These ghouls attack the AH blowing up and infecting everyone inside. It wasn't too bad.. 10 minute timer and several healers around the city. Il just stay and fight them off for a while.

I log on the next day and I get infected, I ran to my usual healer but he isn't there, scourge must have killed him. I run to the inn get cleansed. Somehow I was cutting it close with only around 2 mins left on the disease. Turns out the timer was getting shorter, and the healers were being removed. I went afk near a healer to surf the Internet, stick on some music. I come back and i died. I ress myself and go afk again, but when I come back, I was infected. I was going to explode and ress, but i started having some fun. I Organised a raid to Westfall to try infect some NPC's and lowbies.

After a long run and several deaths we made to Westfall. We start to attack everything in sight but then a few Alliance come along and start killing us. It seemed like a lot of effort to be wasted. There was notably 1 Paladin killing most of us, I whisper her telling her to stop but her reply is "She is Role-playing" This angered me so I flipped out at her. ( I know i shouldn't have but anyone who has tried this would know how frustrating it could be)

Turns out this paladin is a good friend of my guild leader and next thing I know I'm out. I got blacklisted from this point, denied from guilds/Groups so i just went solo for a while. After a few fail attempts at making a guild, the New expansion comes out.

Il just leave it here for today, got ANOTHER movie to watch! (I defiantly recommend "50 Dead men walking" Its about the Irish republican army when there was war in Belfast, a really great movie)

Next time, I will talk about the Expansion (Wotlk) and my leveling through it. Will have a lot of Screenies too!

A Legend was born...Of some sort. [Part 4]

One of the main reasons we had upgraded to a faster Internet connection, was specifically for the game, but since it took around 6 months to sort out, I ended up not even using it. Right before the start of the summer holidays, my parents announced that they would be having a divorce. I had known for a while but hearing still upset me. My mam moved out to a house that was a 5 minute drive from my old house. (I think they wanted me to feel close to home) It was fine by me.

After this, I needed something to do. I needed something to keep my from wandering. I bought a 3d jigsaw, but i got bored fast. I get Black & white and Devil may cry for the PC but my computer wasn't strong enough to play DMC. Before school ended, one of my new friends mentioned he played a game called Guild Wars. I called him up and he gave me the Details. So me, Drake and Lee (Not their real names, but their toons..Well actually "Lee" Named his toon after himself...er) bought nightfall and it was actually pretty fun.

Lee stopped after a few days but me and Drake keep on going. Another guy from my class "Vylin" started playing. This was OK for the first few months but after a while, i started thinking about Warcraft. I decided to give it a go, somehow I had time left on it, fired it up, but I forgot which server i was on. I made a new toon on Bronze Dragonflight, thinking it was Darkmoon Faire. I got a mage to level 10. I asked Ron and fionnach if they wanted to start playing again. They said no, but they also told me what server they were on.

Over the summer they go to level 40+. I started playing when school started again and it was pretty fun too. I was as bad a noob can get, but I thought I was amazing :P. As a level 37 mage, i started to get very annoyed. I wasn't very skilled so I i was getting hit, and as a clothie, I was getting 1 shot. So I decided to reroll a human rogue. (I forgot to mention that once I restarted playing, I didn't want to play my hunter. so i made a mage.)

My gnome mage's name was reported several times (As Darkmoon Faire is a RP server) I can't remember his first name but they went like this. "Name 1" " gnomedepo" "Pvpmage" "FireMage" After that I put a lot of effort into thinking what name I should pick. The song Maniac on the dance floor, had just come on the radio. It got me thinking... and Arcaniac was born.

Arcaniac might have been an old skool troll, if i knew what that was. His hobbies were, begging, spamming trade, insulting people. Dunno why though!

Anyway, I was messing around which characters i should make...Paladin seems good. Might even go horde... Then i picked a rogue. And what was his name? The only thing i could think of.

Not-Arcaniac!

(I would like to point out that Drake was playing guildwars long before he mentioned it to me, we has a respected player on it. Also, my story makes it seem that I roleld a rogue before Drake, this is not true. He started playing while I was on my mage, shortly after i made a rogue. HAPPY NOW DRAKE? :D)
