Day 10 already, eh?
My favourite mount is the Flying Machine because I love Engineering as a profession, and it felt awesome to make it when they were first implemented!
Close second would be the Touring Rocket as it can hold a passenger.
World of Warcraft 30 Day Challenge: Day 9 - A screenshot I like, and I love this one. I just love sunsets and this is beautiful.
PvE / PvP?
Definitely PvE. I just can’t stand PvP and I always have disliked it. I’ve always hated the fact that PvP, a part of WoW on the side, seems to have taken a much larger dominance with the game over the story.
I can imagine PvPers’ view on it; “Uuugh you got RP on my game!” It’s called an MMORPG for a reason. -.-
My favourite piece of lore has to be the whole story of Go’el freeing his people, taking up the mantle of WarChief and uniting the Horde as a single faction for the greater good of Azeroth, and culminating in the war against Archimonde at the infamous battle for Mt. Hyjal. I have nothing but respect for him, and even though he had to follow his true calling and leave the leadership to an arrogant fool it was for the right reasons.
(Because I forgot yesterday’s, here is today’s as well)
Favourite quest line. Hm, there are a few to choose from actually, however I think I have to say Kezan and The Lost Isles. The changes to the Goblins’ way of life as the events of the story takes place shows how resourceful they can be and the interaction with the main plot of the game is a lovely treat!
Damn those Alliance, nearly causing the destruction of Azeroth…
My favourite Classic instance has to be good old DM (Deadmines), the first time I heard about it it seemed to be this great challenging dungeon and the quest line leading through the Defias Brotherhood built it up even more. Then came the first time entering, I was presented with this long, sprawling tunnel filled with the armies of the Defias workers and miners and it lead all the way up to the WarCraft 2 era ship where VanCleef and his final henchmen stood waiting. Possibly the most memorable part of that place has to be Mr Smite, seeing him stunning the party and rushing to that chest for different weapons was so much fun!
Favourite zone from each volume, hm?
Classic - Original: Don’t particularly have a favourite here, but to choose one I’d probably say Ashenvale because I spent a lot of my early WoW days with a Night Elf RP guild named Natures Grasp.
Classic - Cataclysm: Silverpine Forest. The Forsaken quest line here is absolutely amazing, going through it alongside The Dark Lady makes it feel like you are in control of the advancing story, aiding her in the conquest of the region.
Burning Crusade: Nagrand without a doubt. The beautiful scenery, the calm music, the lovely skies, everything about the Orcs’ ancestral lands is a wonder to behold.
Lich King: This one has to be Storm Peaks, I’ve always loved the stereotypical theme of “the frozen north” being a sad and lonely place, and the Peaks have a wonderful music as well as towering mountaintops and deep ravines.
Cataclysm: Has to be Uldum. I love the whole desert theme to it, and the lush oases where the Ramkahen have set up. The whole Harrison Jones story line here is one of my favourite in the whole game!
A class I’m terrible at… hmm. I would have to say a Hunter, purely because I just can’t manage keeping my pet tanking stuff away from me. As soon as I shoot at my pet’s target it rushes to me and I have to go melee! Argh!
The biggest jerk I’ve dealt with in game has to be a chav I had the misfortune of meeting through his brother, whom I had become friends with. Without going into details, he threatened to find me and do things simply because my personality didn’t agree with him. I informed a GM and he received a day’s ban because of his nasty behavior, though when he found out it was because of me he said he would find where I live and do more “things”.
I learned that he was very unstable anyway, and even his family didn’t like him (gee, wonder why), but because of him my friend had to stop playing WoW and as such I never heard from either of them again.
