The Haiku Trap (Part 1)

 
Luxypie sent me this Haiku Mystery. The title of the mail was simply " :D " inside the message deepened.
 
a valley of farms,
Seventy five-twenty five
Faces await you

What could it mean? It meant I had to follow the clues!


 
To the Valley of Four Winds! Coords 75 by 25. The Thunderfoot Ranch!
 
The Horror!

Also there waiting was Luxypie on the Veluxia. As smug as the pigs around her.
 
Was this torture at an end? I wished so. But Luxypie wasn't done. I was given second 'Hai-clue' to follow!
 
What does it mean? And what evil will I find?


Next time: The Mystery of the Smuglet Tunnel!

Blood Knight in the Wild (Part 4)

I was off to visit on Dino Island where Azalpha and Luxypie's alt were.
 
This Luxy alt, LuxyGaga, is actually in my guild Frostwolves. Once there I noticed she is wearing this set. This Orc Shaman looked like a Blood Knight!
 

She is transmogged into wearing Ironhide Mail set. No Tabard. Helmet & Cloak Off. Dagger is Rusted Gutgore Ripper. I forgot to screenshot the gigantic sheild, Pulsing Spellshield but it can be seen behind her.

Sunreaver Micro-Sentry!

Goodbye Darkmoon Zeppelin, hello Sunreaver Micro-Sentry! Found on the Isle of Thunder as a drop off Haywire Sunreaver Construct.
 
Very fitting for my Blood Elf Blood Knight.
 
"Big Bro, don't worry! I will protect McTacky!"

LFR: Heart of Fear



I managed to get my Gear Score up to 470 and was able to do these two instances. Ugh, more Klaxxi./Dread Wastes/Mantrid stuff. I was just glad to get out of those places.

The Elusive Minfernal


It was 3am server time. It had just stopped raining. McTacky was alone and wet in the Felwood.  The smell of brimstone was everywhere in Shatter Scar Vale.

Then it appeared. The elusive Minfernal.


Animation provided so you too can simulate the experiance of catching the elusive Minfernal.
 
 
The elusive Minfernal spawned alone. No others could be seen in the zone. I was alone in Felwood at the time, so it wasn't able to elude me.

Not So Klaxxi

 
58th Exalted Faction is the Klaxxi.
 
Not much to say here. I really hate the Dread Wastes and not going back there for quest again is a good thing. The Klaxxi storyline also didn't hold my intrest. Dread Wastes is pretty much all about the Klaxxi.
 
The exception was the quests out of Soggy's Gamble which I did enjoy.
 
Next I will focus on the Golden Lotus rep. I am only Honored with them still.

Day 10 - Design a Pet!

Day 10 of Navi's (The Daily Frostwolf - Druid Edition) 10 days of pet battles Topic.

Design a pet! What model would your pet have, where would it come from and what abilities would it have?



Pikachu
Row 1: Thunderbolt, Light Screen, Double Team
Row 2: Quick Attack, Agility, Volt Tackle
 
Location: 5% chance to appear in Long Grass in Viridian Forest.
Location: Daily Spawn around Thunderfall, The Storm Peaks
 
Thunderbolt: Deals 15 Elemental damage; 10% chance of stunning the target.

Light Screen: Reduces up to 5 damage from each attack against you. Last 5 turns
 
Double Team: Increases your team's speed by 25% for 9 rounds.

Quick Attack: Deals 15 Critter damage. This ability always goes first.
 
Agility: Increases your chance to dodge an attack by 100%. 4 Turn Cooldown. Lasts 1 rounds.

Volt Tackle: Deals 30 Elemental damage against the target; Deals 45% of that Elemental damage back against itself. 10% chance of stunning the target. 1 Turn Cooldown.


Note:
* Each of these moves are moves that Pikachu can learn while leveling up in Pokémon except Volt Tackle which is is a sigature move you need to breed to learn.
* Quick Attack already exists in the game.
* Light Screen will make Volt Tackle hurt yourself less, not just enemy caused damage.
* Volt Tackle in Pokémon is 33% Damage hitting yourself. This version was made to be 45% to be like Stone Rush.
* I swapped what Agility and Double Team do for Warcraft version of Pikachu. Also made Double Team help your team.
* Considered making Pikachu a Critter Type like the other Mouse in the game. But I decided that it would be Elemental. Same rational to how a Phoenix is Elemental not Flying like other birds. Pikachu is a living battery.
