The Returns: part one

Two weeks after my (almost unplanned) return to World of Warcraft, and I still spent my times blogwalking and writing on official forums, I guess I am a Community Troll after all :))

First thing when I arrived in a now-shattered Azeroth is logging on my Orc Warlock (which I rolled on trial almost one and a half year ago, capped at lvl 20) and running around trying to get a new feel of everything.... new :D. Orgrimmar is a fortress now and Garrosh stood on the center it (still same attitude). My demonology-most-of-it talent got reset and now since demonology tree got Felguard instantly I choose it, tadaaa now I'm level 60... NOT, still 20

And LEVELING IS EASIER!!! I remember a year ago when I was questing on barrens and ganked by a couple of running centaurs, now they seemed to develop bigger ego and stay away from each other, and like all egoist: They die easily. The mechanic of Demonology warlock seems nerfed because the damage come mostly from my Felguard, but since choosing the talents now instantly give you all the active and passive talents --previously placed on the third tree's tier-- it's now an improvement, not to mention I can use like five debuffs on mobs (previously four) and.... NO SHOULD SHARDS!!! YAAYYYYY!!! (God, by farming them I almost lost my youth on Dethpod....). Oh yeah anyway Barren's now split into two because Deathwing wakes up on the bad side of the bed and realized his consort is now a Raid Boss :))

On the old barrens there's only like four travel points, now the Northern Barren itself has four, Ashenvale now has four (previously two) so travelling won't be as dull as the Barren age now (and with all the Barren's chat and Chuck Norris...) There are also some quest that give you free ride into new area so no more walking, it also enhance the lore parts somewhat. Although now class-based-quests are no more, I kinda like it when I was questing to get my Voidwalker, and also when I have to steal something as a rogue.... it has stories so I hope Blizz will bring it back in the future. BRING IT BACK OR DIE!!! IT'S PAYING CUSTOMER HERE SIR!!! =)) =))

The music... ahhh... I love Ashenvale's music, is Yasunori Mitsuda part of the score team now? Since I swear I heard some of his celtic signature on some new sounds of Ashenvale, no? Some other guy then :p. Not only that, Darkshore has some great orchestral score too, Barrens is still sound a bit the same but who cares about Barrens right? :D I was looking forward for more, whoops I still level 32, Man I love cooking.... *spaced out*

Speaking of professions.... They're still... dull as ever :)) But I like leveling them up and daily profession quests makes everything a lil' bit easier (just a little...). Tabards are now can be equipped to gain reputation on dungeons (well at least now the Dungeon is something to look at for) so no more wool-silk-mageweave quests for factions anymore (BIG YAY since I hate those quests...) and Quartermasters now sell 12 slotted bags for Revered players (another BIG YAY).

PVP are... pretty much the same, Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, well honor points are always easy to come by, no new mechanics, twinks still existed and still OP as usual :p I really want to see battle of Gilneas but now I'm not hungry for blood as much as when I play rogue (NOT ROUGE!! ROGUE!!)

They revamped some dungeons, Shadowfang Keep got new owner, Edwin Vancleef succeeded by his daughter... (GOD I LMAO'D HARD!!!) And in there are new bossses that'll kill you if you don't move around, they said Cata and Heroic Dungeons are freaking crazy hard as well, let's see it in a couple of months, path of DPS-ers is always the easiest when leveling up, but not when raiding.

I like to see what's in store for me for a couple of months forward, I'm a casual player with an epic laziness and deep love for typing (and observing), my next post is about the official global community, players attitude, difficulties, big gap between elitists and casuals and more (I withheld everything in this two weeks :D)

PS: Also congratulations for Everbloom for reaching Level 85 on a Peaceful Druid Path (means without killing anything)

The Peace Corps and Perks

Alright, before I started continuing my blog again (the first one being in here) I just read something on WoW official forum  that some WOW players have been involved in a project called The Path of the Peaceful Druid, basically: they go on leveling without killing anything, they just leveled up through non-killing quests, exploring and doing professions, the thread got a lot of positive comments and in just a month people started joining them so they made a guild called Peace Corps and not only druid coming to take the peaceful path.

For a guy where his local MMO community is all bent to kill each other and make the community suffers with uncivilized-ness, I really hope Serenity and the other can keep on, because in my opinion it's a good thing to do, stretching your ability to the max just to see if you can do it.  I'm rooting for them, but since I'm cheap and my WoW account is still on trial I posted my comment here

Go Peace Corps!!!! :)) :))

I also done a lot of readings to keep up with Cataclysm, and I realized Guild Perks really looked like clan reps on Lineage 2 but in a more complex way, many people complain because the small guild with five members can't cap their level fast.... Hmmm... My clan on Lineage 2 only got five to ten people grinding rep and it got us two years to cap max level (for a casual guild) and when I see guild levels on Wowpedia I count that Lineage 2 Clan rep would need a whole lot more grinding. So I think our patience is something I can be proud of :))
