Old and New


Back to Scarlet Monastery! I have went back the last few days, and have really enjoyed the power leveling. I realized how rusty I was from when I used to do it all the time before.

Now for the gear shown in this video.

Gothik the Harvester dropped my Helm of Vital Protection. He also dropped Aged Winter Cloak, Bindings of Yearning, and Life and Death which went to Charliebean.

Patchwerk dropped my new sheild Hero's Sunder, perfect for Recycled Heroes. His other dropps were Belt of the Tortured, Boots of Septic Wounds, Ruthlessness, Crude Discolored Battlegrips, Libram of Tolerance, Surplus Limb (which went to Lockdnloaded), and Fool's Trial.

Loatheb dropped both tier 7 & 7.5 for me.

I now have the title The Champion of The Frozen Wastes. To see all my achievements, see the bottom paragraph of my blog to a link to my armory. BTW I personally am Canadian, so please don't make the joke more than it's meant to be.. a joke.

I have also added a new poll to the bottom of this blog. Please vote.

Close Calls




Well the higher content videos are harder to make I find, but I truly like this one. The funny thing is when I bring out the higher end content, you'll notice more rude comments from people assuring themselves that can do better. There are many achievements and gear shown in this clip. It defiantly was a rewarding process to go through Naxx the way we did, there were many nights where we 20 manned it rather than pugged. In the end I know we are much more prepared for Ulduar.

A few things I would like to talk about that I did not mention in the video. Sorry for turning off my incoming tells, after 2 years of incoming tells, they have become too much and is hindering the game for me. I do appreciate all my viewers, I just can't have everyone come to my server to ask questions, which most of the answers are found in my videos, blog or in the FAQ at the bottom f this page. I then get labeled the rude one, where really I just want to make more vids for you guys and continue to play the game.

Our guild has progress so well. We had our pitfalls, like when we mass invited an entire other guild. Since the guild did not see my Recycled Heroes video, they came in blind to the purpose and rules of the guild. After many kicks and many leaving we finally got the guild under 300 members. We were once at 2000 members. Unfortunately we lost a few along the growth/insanity stage due to the rudeness. So shutting down the guild is a reward system for the people who saw the vision of the guild and now can reap the loot benefits. Remember Ulduar is not our goal, it is a stepping stone to get us closer to Lich King. Too many guilds look short term, and loose and recruit every time a new raid comes out. We are trying to keep our core raiders through the entire process. Now upon saying this, we do want to have Ulduar on farm status quickly, and are hoping that we are more prepared now, compared to coming into this expansion.

I have learnt a lot being a guild leader, in my last guild, I simply was a member. Now I did have a ton of people come into the guild(but most wanted to be carried and power leveled). I've said this before, I don't power level someone the entire way, It's simply a boost to help them get a few levels quick.

Arcatraz




Well this was a quick one I put out so you wouldn't have to wait as long as you have for my videos. The gear update one will be more indepth and I will have a few of them out to get fully caught up.

Arcatraz to get in , one person needs the key. I did do a full video on the key which you can watch here.

In this video Zereketh the Unbound dropped Rubium War-Girdle, Wrath-Scryer Soccothrates dropped Ryngo's Band of Ingenuity, Dalliah the Doomsayer dropped Reflex Blades, and Harbinger Skyriss dropped Lamp of Peaceful Radiance and Hungering Spineripper.

Getting ready for Ulduar




In Magisters' Terrace, the last boss Kael'thas Sunstrider has a chance of dropping the Swift White Hawkstrider. I was fortunate enough to win this on our first run. He can also drop the Phoenix Hatchling which rocks.

In ZA, the Amani Hex sticks drop so frequently (compared to before patch 3.0)

The Slayer of the Lifeless is a sword that I will be keeping for a long time (even if I upgrade it) In my bank I have a lot of old BOE's that I can't bare to part with. If you ever want me to do a feature on my bank items let me know. This sword drops off of Gothik the Harvester, who also dropped Resurgent Phantom Bindings in this video. Now my old sword Infantry Assault Blade came from Heroic Utgard Keep.

Shields are one of the favorite things in the game (probably cause I'm a protection paladin.) I like them not only for their use, but graphically a different shield can change your characters look dramatically. I was happy that the The Skull of Ruin dropped, but I really want the Barricade of Eternity or the Hero's Surrender.

Now the poll I was refering to in this video can be found at the bottom of this page. The poll is now closed.

Thank you for watching!

Check out Hobbs from Stormreaver on the US server in the Armory here. Please use this blog to help - along with the comments to help. I try to answer everything in my vids, so chances are the answer is just a few views away.

New! now you can refer to my FAQ page, which is a growing list, if you don't see your question there now, keep checking back.
