The Shiny Side

Yanno, as of late, I’ve been playing so much on my days off that I completely spaced on updating the interwebs on my progress! Ohnoes!

No worries, though, I’ve got you covered. Here, for your reading (or viewing) amusement… the Giant Post o’ RECAP! (recap! recap! reca~)

I’ve taken waaaay too many screenshot to effectively pick out which ones I’d like to show you. Plus, I driver crashed during our instance runs through UK and Nexus last night — so FRAPs decided that I didn’t *really* want to be taking screenshots every time I hit the button. Ugh.

Ah, well. So — text recap!

Jaarka is now in Northrend! w00t! As soon as I hit 68 levelling with Fikkle’s DK (Kor), we hopped on the Zepplin and headed towards “Boring” Tundra (as Roz so likes to call it). The three of us pretty much opened a giant can of whoop-ass and steamrolled through all of the quests we’ve attempted so far.

At about level 70 I headed over to Howling Fjord to check it out. Fikkle’s in the middle of a move, so I wanted to save the rest of Boring for when he’s around. Holy crap. This. Zone. Is. Epic.

As a big fan of Norse Mythology (or any Mythology for that matter…), all of the Norse-inspired units in this zone rock. The zone is pretty. The quests are fun. I think I have a new favorite. Seriously.

Last night we did some mostly-guild runs of UK and Nexus. Fikkle, Roz, and Sylus all brought their OP DKs to the fights, I was Jaarka, of course, and we PuG’d a shammy healer. I think the runs went very well, with only a single wipe on each of the final bosses. I have officially been into Northrend instances! WOOT!

Okay, so I can’t have an entire post without a screenshot of SOME sort. So here, I give you… me being an achievement whore. Make sure you check out the caption… it’s pretty much how things, uh… “went down.”
