Eye of the Storm

ugh. On the edge of Outlands the Blood Elves need an area of Netherstorm called the Eye of the Storm. I don't know why we're there, something about the elves disgusting need for magic. At each corner is a tower, capturing a tower is done by just standing there... simple... except for the five other guys trying to crush in my head. There is also a flag to capture at a tower that is possesed by the horde side.

There seem to be two strategies to win, capture three towers and defend them, or capture two towers and capture the flag often. The second one will only work if you have a good team for retrieving the flag in rounds. Of course having more towers captured makes the horde side win faster. I guess the Alliance just gives up after a while...

I fight though, the Elves gives nice rewards for helping them in the Eye. I need a better axe and shield. So soon I will have ___ and ___. Then I will be crushing heads!

Closed for a few months

We are closed for a little bit. Needing to catch up on bills to Goblins. Catch me in June.

Yeti's Suck...

So I traveled to a place called WinterSpring. It's frozen forested area, but with hotsprings all around, it supports an abundance of life, including Yeti's.

I was hired by a goblin in Everlook (a goblin founded city like Gadgestan in Tanaris) to get some Thick Yeti Hides from the Ice Thistle Yeti's just south of the city.

I found the Yeti's and their cave and I killed Yeti's...



and I killed more yeti's...



and I killed more yeti's...



and I kept killing, running out of food and bandages and sharpening stones, but only getting 3 yeti hides after killing approximately 70 yeti's. I had to check but it turns out the yeti hides only come off the very basic yeti's an I was killing the higher level Matriarch and Patriarch Yeti's. I was pissed. An hour wasted, because yeti's usually only have a few silver coins on them. I did find two thorium veins for mining in the cavern, but other than that it was a big ass waste of time...

After going back to the lower level yeti's it took me 15 mins to get the yeti hides.

And then the damn goblin sent me back to get perfect yeti horns from those same matriarchs and patriarchs that I'd been killing for the past hour with not much to show for it.

Eventually it all turned out OK, the goblin gave me a slightly used mechanical yeti to keep. I don't think it will last very long, but it's cute and tough in a fight.

I got stronger just before going on this mission (ding 57). After part one of the quest chain and an hour of killing yeti's , I was 1/3 of the way to 58, just by killing yeti's... damn yeti's

Teremus the Devourer

Working in the Blasted Lands can be scary....


If it's not that it's cultists...


There is nothing good in the Blasted Lands, Cultists, Dragons, and foul beasts roam the land. The boars radiate burning fire and the basilisks freeze you in their terrible stare. In the southern part of the area lies the Dark Portal, demon guards roam around the outside of it, but horde forces control the portal itself for now. Once I am strong enough I too will travel the portal to the Outlands for the honor of the Horde.

Hunting for Iron

Hi All, I spent a large part of the past week working on getting my weapon smithing quest done. It took about 4 days of regular play time. I'm also working on getting Thorium Brotherhood faction. So I'm digging up iron ore whereever I can. Tanaris was good for mithril, but usually it's around the edges so I'm running around it a lot.

It gives a nice view of the seashore:


I also ended up near Stonard Keep (a continent away from Tanaris) mining in a cave on the southern edge of the map. The cave is full of Murlocs, which kept me busy fighting them off while hunting minerals.

East of Stonard at Sunset...


I hitting a 300 skill in mining in the Hinterlands, I would have celebrated, but I needed 40 more iron ore and I have only been mining thorium ore...

First Post!

Fiendhammer here! Just another orc on Skywall. Just want to chronical my journey's around Azeroth and Outlands (When I get there).

Feeling stronger today (ding lvl 54) Questing in the Burning Steppes and enjoying it. Working on getting hundreds of incendisaur scales to get faction w/ the Thorium Brotherhood. It's taking a while.

That's all for now though, I hearth'ed back to Orgrimmar but I'll get back into the fray tonight.
