End of the Weekend Thread (1/4)Follow

Had a pretty enjoyable weekend.

WoW:

- Found a group to kill the two missing leaders for For the Alliance!, Sylvanas and Lor'Themar.
- Got the last missing achievements for this one too.
- Guild progressed further into the Throne of Thunder and after only one wipe on the first four bosses we got our first kill on Megaera. No loot for me though. Had a few tries on Ji-Kun and he seems manageable. Hopefully we will kill him tomorrow before the ID resets.
- Made a ton of gold.
- Played my little Rogue and got him near to 31.


RL:

- Went out with friends and got wasted on Thursday and Saturday. My body still doesn't feel fully recovered.
- Got picked up by a girl and went home with her. (Yay for strong women). We will most likely not meet again but I think it's safe to say we both had a good time.
- Went to the gym once in between the phases when I was to intoxicated. Want to go again in a few hours. We'll see how that goes.

Fooooood comaaaaaaaa...

I had a chance to game Friday night and Saturday morning; hit 85 on my mage on Friday and headed to Pandaland. I feel pretty underpowered compared to being 84 in Deepholm, even with the full set of new gear waiting for me at 85, but I forgot how good the beginning story is for this expansion so it's still pleasant. Spent most of Saturday playing my main and just messing around; did a bunch of pet tamer battles. Managed to get my hands on a blue quality emerald proto whelp, an infinite whelpling, and a Scourged Whelp (only poor quality though). Probably going to stone the the last two. I'm not a huge dragonkin fan, but the emerald and infinite come highly recommend for trainer battles. I have no problem beating trainers right now with 3 pets, but most of the strategies I've read said with the right mix you can down them with two, so... why not? Also did some archeology for the first time since 5.2, and started getting a bunch of Mantid stuff. Great, even more grinding Still have yet to set foot on the Isle of Thunder, because a slacker is I.

RL: Went to my parents' early Saturday afternoon; a 70 minute trip took 120 minutes because of traffic. Ugh. When I arrived I was immediately put to work helping to repaint the house. We managed to do the entire front side by the end of the weekend, and it looks pretty good! Spent the rest of the weekend overconsuming and reading Dune (which I picked up from a friend's house). Man, no wonder that book is called one of the best pieces of Sci-fi of all time; it's awesome.

The weekend was good, but totally ruined my healthy living for the past week. Oh well... back to it today!

WoW - Let the DK rest for the weekend. I just wasn't feeling it. Probably has something to do with my general dislike of Cata dungeons. Leveled my panda priest to 25, so five more levels than my goal, yay! Dungeons at low levels are just so fast for leveling. Only quested a little bit. I also worked on tailoring and enchanting. Trying to keep them on pace with level. Also, I decided to start a pally. I've been wanting a JC on this server - almost made the priest a JC, but deciced making my own gear would come in handy - so I rolled a dwarf pally. Leveled up to 10.

I guess I'm just turing into a serial leveler. Altitis is strong in this one. I haven't touched my main(s) in about a month. I reached the point where it was logging on just to do pet battles and the routine of some dailies. The dailies get old fast. The pet battles, though fun, are just not really why I play WoW. They're a mini-game gone crazy, essentially. Anywho, when I realized I just wasn't really having fun on my main(s) and I was enjoying the alt I rolled to pick up pets more, I decided to focus more on the alt...which then turned into alts, as I get the itch to be more self-sufficient on the new server.

RL - Some yardwork on Saturday. Dog got a lot of attention this weekend. He's a happy camper. Lunch with the parents on Sunday. Game of Thrones Sunday evening, yay! Nothing too exciting, but felt like a full weekend, nonetheless.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

This.
Ham, scalloped potatoes, glazed carrots, salads, rolls dripping w/butter, cheesecake...
My cholesterol levels are probably maxxed out.
It is good that I set no game goals, we totally vegged out when we weren't eating or just watching tv.
The dragons be growing in Game of Thrones. ^^

After playing Wow this weekend, dose 5.2 dailies just feel grindy to anyone else? I am having a hard time just completing them on one character that I just took my others through the old 5.1's (Witch I did enjoy) I just can't explain it but say they don't feel "fun" to me.

On the plus side, the Zandalari Warscouts/Warbringers effectively let you farm for the 5.0 reputations at your own pace. Even better, the 1000 rep items they drop are BoA, so you can send them to alts if you already have the reputation at Exalted. I'll be sending my Klaxxi and GL items to my mage alt (who is 85, but can still use them to get rep).
