It’s been a little quiet around here lately, sorry about that. I’m a key player in a HUUUUGE project at work, and our launch is this weekend. It’s been one of those weeks. I’m sur a lot of you out there can sympathize. Anyhow, here’s a little bit about the latest goings on with PTD.
The Shammy Ditches the Elekk
As a lot of you know, I’ve been working my Stormwind rep so I can dump the hated Elekk with my Shammy. I’m so sick of getting STUCK everywhere, I can’t take it anymore. Well, the deed is done. I conveniently saved the last couple of turnins that would push me to exalted for the mini quest hub in Elwynn where horses are sold. The first thing I did was destroy that stupid Elekk mount. Poor guy, don’t tell PETA.
Do I want to delete? HELL YEAH! I hopped on the cheapest horse on the lot, a beat up Pinto.
Wow, I sure look big on that thing. I actually feel kinda sorry for that horse. I hope he has a warranty!
So there it is. Exalted Stormwind rep with my Shammy. As an added bonus, I know where I’ll be vendoring and repairing from here on out!
Hunter Gears Up in Karazhan
I also put together a Kara run last night. It seemed like it might not go off, and I actually half-cancelled it, when suddenly two of our best tanks threw their hats in the ring. We had 2 priests, a Warrior and Pally for tanks, and a mix of DPS that included my Hunter, 2 Mages, an Enhance Shammy, Kitty Druid and a Fury Warrior. Interesting mix, to be sure. Luckily we had the Shammy along who made the melee DPS very strong.
We blasted through pretty much everything. We had one wipe after the ramp leading to opera, where we accidentally pulled the whole room. Other than that, we one shot everything, skipping only Illhoof and Netherspite. We would have gone back, but a couple people had to bail so we called it a night.
Loot-wise, it was both good and bad for me. I actually got one of the best cloaks a Hunter can have in the Drape of the Dark Reavers. Nice. I also happened to pick up TWO pairs of gaunts. I got the Gloves of Quickening from Maiden and my T4 gloves, the Demon Stalker Gauntlets from Curator. I already have the Crystalhide Handwraps, so I have some thinking to do there. Anyone have any thoughts on those three? None have enchants as of yet, the Crystalhide are gemmed but with easily replaceable stuff, no epics.
Anyhow, what I REALLY wanted though was a new ranged weapon. No dice. No Crossbow from Attumen, no Gun from the BBW (which I REALLY want…I am a dwarf!) and no bow from the Prince. Bah, humbug. Someday I will upgrade from my old, blue Valanos’. I just don’t know when.
Well, that’s about all for now. I do have some more in depth posts brewing, I just haven’t had the time. Next week things should start to clear up, right about the time all the adulation and cash starts rolling in at work for the great job I did on the site. We’ll see. Thanks for reading!

Nice run! my group also oneshotted every boss in kara last night, and i tanked them all for the first time – and attempted to lead the raid too (it was my first time as a raid leader) I’ve been waiting and waiting for the t4 pieces – still nothing – they’ve never even dropped once in all my kara runs. Do they even actually exist??? Maybe its just a warcraft myth that druids can get t4 gear in there.
anyway, thats the way the dice roll, and it keeps us all playing, hoping for that lucky drop one of these weeks.
