Episode 19 – Three Drinks in on Lunar Love, Confucianism, Socrates, 11.1, and a Meh Castle Show Notes  Welcome to Episode 19! – 8:04 A few words from me on the guiding principles of Solo Queue and why consistent publishing is not really one of them.  Sorry to miss the two episodes a month pattern on the very first month.  I am okay with that and hopefully you are as well.  Still hoping to get you 24 episodes this year.   And a big thank you to Snek of Vol'dun for the fantastic interview last month, the most downloaded episode in a first week of release!             “What have you done lately?” – 13:00 Anniversary Trivia Recap – 942 total levels and now 40 characters are level 70 or above Fix for losing in-game dialog audio Nelf Druid main finally in all epic gear and Circlet maxxed to 658 Kirin Tor questline is good story-telling Plunderstorm – I already bought out the vendor!   News – 45:37 SoD Phase 7 Cata Classic XP buff Anniversary Classic Phase 2 To Retail news, Turbulent Timeways trick Can search for characters in the select screen   11.1 News and Previews – 56:55 List of selected features coming in 11.1 at an unknown date, likely Feb. 25?   Love is in the Air and Lunar Festival – 1:11:25 New stuff in Love is in the Air and I encourage you to hit respect your elders, if for no other reason than achievements and a new mount for Lunar Festival, which traces its roots to Confucianist ideas honoring your ancestors and the Chinese celebration of Lunar New Year.   Drink #1 – 1:22:50 Moonglow, a special Lunar Festival drink to tide me over to the Drink of the Month   Drink #2 – 1:23:45 Yup, a second drink.  Must be big stuff afoot.  To steel the nerves for Raid of the Month, a Shadeskin Brandy from a dude named Slabchop.  “It burns like sin,” as they say in Revendreth.   Question of the Month – 1:25:33 What should the next playable race be? Sethrak, ogres, jinyu, hozen, valkyr, naga, or something else?   Raid of the Month:  Castle Nathria (Shadowlands) – 1:27:35 It has been four years and that means the raids of Shadowlands should be available to be soloed by mere mortals.  I tackle Castle Nathria for the first time, and of course, I do not remember all the story bits going into it.  #followerraids   Drink #3 – 1:40:06      All that raiding has me thirsty for a second Shadeskin Brandy.   Verdict on Castle Nathria – 1:40:29 The first raid of Shadowlands has no mount?  And it has large swaths of RP dialog and slow-walking NPCs?  And it took much longer than an hour?  And it yielded only 500 gold?  What do you think my recommendation is?   Main Topic:  Did You Hear What Denathar Said About Me and Fellow Podcasters Unite! – 1:47:17 A passing comment by Denathar on Azeroth United has me fired up to defend my honor and reputation as a podcaster!  My defense includes comparing myself to Socrates.  What ego?  What are you talking about?  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_Socrates   Then I long for a tighter community of podcasters and celebrate the growing Solo Crew community, even though I tend to steer clear of groups and communities in WoW and life.  #wowpodcastersinBoston?   Outro – 1:59:23 Thanks to Blizzard and OGRE for audio, my lovely wife, and you for listening.

The discussion starts with WoW news, especially the three-kids-in-a-trenchcoat that is Classic, and how it's once again time to respect your Elders with the Lunar Festival returning this week. They turned to Diablo's seasonal scheduling, and how it may or may not be under the influence. Who's to judge.Then, the crew hit on Overwatch 2, and how a whole lot of the new stuff introduced this midseason banks on that “uphill both ways” style nostalgia. We'd say it was also “in the snow” but Joe rather vociferously nixed that topic during the preshow.The Q&A portion of the show was supplied mostly by staff member Cory. There's just no denying fashion, we suppose. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It may be happening while the podcast is going on even! Enshrouded: A handful of guildies are playing Enshrouded and while it's not really multi-player, but rather a co-op style game, feel free to ask in Nomads for others that may want to play along. If it does trend toward larger group open world features in the future AIE will likely start up a shared server for it. Many are looking forward to early access of Nightingale coming in a few weeks. It might end up being another small group survival game we all try out. There will be no private servers at this point for early access but keep an eye out in the Nomads channel for ways to play together! WoW Noob Raid completed Timewalking Firelands - barely - with an all out final pull. Congrats and thanks to everyone who joined in the fun. One month in, Noob Mythics had a decline in interest, although people are asking in guild chat if anyone wants a mythic plus run. Let's do more of this! So Let's Go Skating got AOTC last Sunday! There's a holiday bonanza this week. The Darkmoon Faire is up (grab those rep and xp buffs) as well as the Lunar Festival... and Love is in the Air begins Monday.

Book you 2024 Astrology Reading now! https://jilljardineastrology.com/shop/Have you ever wanted to learn Astrology?  Tools For Transformation: Astrology 101: beginning in 2024   https://jilljardineastrology.com/101Have you ever wondered: "When will things get better?""When will I get a big sum of money?" Do I have good wealth karma?"When will I attract the right relationship?" "When will I find a better job?"These questions can be answered through understanding the signs and symbols of Astrology This course improves intuition, as students understand the archetypes and energetics of astrology. Ever wondered how the winter solstice and other solar festivals can spark a personal transformation within you? On this captivating journey of Cosmic Scene with Jill Jardine, we delve into the powerful pagan rituals that mark these celestial events. We'll reveal the potent symbolism of the four cross quarter days, especially Imbolc and Beltane, and their association with goddess Brigid and fertility. As we approach the Winter Solstice, I'll guide you through the Great Invocation - an ancient prayer that summons spiritual light to our planet during this mystical time.The word Solstice comes from the Latin words “Sol stetit” which mean literally: “the Sun stood still.” Did you know that the equinoxes and solstices happen at the same moment around the world? Even though we all have different time zones, this is an astronomical event, based on our planet's orbit around the Sun and tilt on its axis.The custom of lighting bonfires at the Solstice was not exclusive to Europe, it also occurred in other locations around the world including North Africa and the Americas.  The sanctioned and coordinated release of procreative energy served two important functions:  1) I strengthened the bonds within the community and 2) served to stimulate and revitalize the land.The Solstices were celebrated by our ancestors for many reasons, notably as a license for sexual proclivities encouraged at this time to bless the fertility and abundance of the earth.  The solstices were a time of honoring the forces or order and light, the divine feminine and masculine, paying tribute to Mother Earth and Father Sun.  Solstices were times to celebrate the polarities of bringing people of the planet in sync with the cycles of nature. The Solstice and equinoxes (solar festivals), as well as the full moon (lunar festivals) were celebrated for bringing orderly rhythms to Earth, allowing her people an opportunity to harmonize these rhythms through ritual, dance and festivity.The Winter Solstice has always been a time to pray for the return of order and light, while the Summer Solstice is a time to celebrate and give thanks for abundance.  The Ancients knew that human beings exist in much larger ecological and cosmic systems and must abide by the rules of those systems if we are to survive.  The Solstices are ideal times to acknowledge and celebrate our responsibilities to these greater realms of Being.  We still have remnants from the European Winter Solstice with our updated version of the ancient visitation of the Solstice Shaman who we've renamed “Santa Claus.” In this episode we explore how these solar celebrations serve as catalysts for personal renewal. As we chant the Great Invocation, we'll collectively call forth divine love and light to guide us and restore Earth's balance. With your active participation, we can bring more light into our lives and the planet. Always remember, at Cosmic Scene with Jill Jardine, we're all about spreading positive energy across the quantum field.Support the show

The intensity churns up when Mercury goes retrograde in Gemini on May 10th while Jovial Giant Jupiter jaunts into fiery Aries turning up the heat and joining Venus in the sign of the rambunctious ram and Mars joins the cosmic bonfire on May 24th .Full Moon Lunar eclipse occurs in the middle of the month, casting more light on the lurking shadows, and unleashing a financial free fall in the coming months.Here are the Key dates in May 2022: May 2: Venus transits Aries until 5/28May 10 : Jupiter transits Aries until October 29,2022May 10: Mercury Retrograde until 6/3May 16: Full Moon Lunar Eclipse with Moon in Scorpio/Sun in Taurus (WESAK MOON)May 22:  Mercury retrogrades into Taurus until 6/3May 24: Mars transits into Aries until Jully 5May 30: New Moon in GeminiMay marches in still reeling from retrograde pluto and eclectic ecliptic episode at April's end. Pace picks up pretty fast on May 2nd when Venus leaves her exalted Piscean palatial palace into Aries, igniting relationships, and flaming the fires of love  Time to make that move and advance your love life and creative plans . Jovial Jupiter adds fuel to the Aries flames when he transits into Aries on May 10th for an extended stay until October 29th.  Check out my previous podcast on Jupiter's transits to Aries.  We'll be feeling big shifts of energy when the Cosmic giant Jupiter opens up new portals and potentials. Here are the highlights: We will get lit up with this fiery infusion of inspiration and activity. We will be launching new projects and advancig plans.May 10th is astro action packed day as Mercury also goes retrograde in Gemini until May 22, when he continues his reversal until June 3 in the sign of Taurus.This Mercury retrograde cycle delivers delays, electronic and travel frustrations, schedule mix-ups and the usual Mercurial madcap maneuvers.On May 16, 2022 ! 12:13 am on the East coast the Scorpio Full Moon Lunar eclipse occurs.  This Scorpio lunar eclipse is a total eclipse of the moon. Scorpio, as well as indicating shared finances, is ruled by the planet Pluto, who's domain is death, rebirth and transformation.  So this Scorpio/Taurus full moon eclipse portends more death, with people leaving their bodies, in the next few months. During the upcoming months, we will notice that more celebrity's are passing away, which indicates that in the general population, more people are dying. The Nodes of the Moon shifted into Scorpio and Taurus on January 19, 2022.  Since this time we have seen many people dying suddenly and unexpectedly.  Full Moon Lunar Eclipse with the Sun in Taurus and Moon in Scorpio also marks an exalted Lunar Festival called the Wesak Moon, celebrated by Buddhists. Check out my 2021 podcast for more information on the Wesak festival.  The Wesak Festival, the great Eastern Festival of the Buddha, is known by many as a day of supreme impact.  Mars blasts into home sign of Aries, on May 24, mustering up the martial mix. Mars joins Jupiter and Venus in assertive Aries. Watch for aggression, impulsivity and rashness.   This is good time to ignite new relationships and get your creative fires burning.  Gemini New Moon at months end on April 30th, gives the brainpower and incentive to follow through on new ideas and inspirations. Our neural networks and social outreach are making great connections.

Jill discusses the Full Moon and how we can harness that energy in our life. The Full Moon in May, occurring on May 7, 2020 is the annual Lunar Festival called the Wesak Moon. Jill will explain why this is a powerful time to connect to the lunar energies. Jill teaches two Tibetan mantras in Sanskrit that are beneficial to chant at the Wesak Full Moon. “Om Mani Padme Hum” - translation: “Praise to the Jewel in the Lotus” Chanted to the being of great compassion who has put off final liberation until all sentient beings have achieved enlightenment“Om Ha Ksa Ma La Va Ra Yam Swaha” known as the “Kalachakra Mantra.” The Dalai Lama encourages chanting of this mantra at this time on Earth for personal and planetary evolution.

It is 2 Games really though, the Persistent Universe that aims to build a First Person MMO Space Sim that encompasses gameplay in ship & on ground, economy and pretty much anything else you can think of. It's built in the StarEngine (a modified Lumberyard Engine). You'll see massive Space Ships that you can fly with friends, land on planets, explore or whatever your way to whatever goal you choose. It's available to try in it's current Alpha State now, you can give feedback & influence the direction of the game BUT it is VERY ALPHA. Squadron 42 is the Single Player Campaign of Star Citizen & the Spiritual Successor of Wing Commander. The Idea is the game is immersive, cinematic, beautiful & seamless... NO LOADING SCREENS once in game. Both Games are currently in the Alpha of their development with the hope that SQ42 Episode 1 will have a Feature Complete Beta by Q3 2020. I am suspecting to see something more like a Star Citizen PU "Beta" by the end of 2022 with permanent progression, though it could be a while after that before the game is considered "feature complete".

Contest Email/WoW Minis and Episode 100 Lunar Festival until Feb 12th What We've Been Doing: Aprillian Cabana Chat - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opM49V9Fa6Q I feel like I blossomed in Nagrand Mithril spurs helps Auruk keep up with the DK's, had the twins and Auruk in Nagrand doing a lot of quests.  They got some good upgrades and both dinged 66 The servers were down on Friday morning but came back up a little after one.  I was doing a disk repair on an external drive on the iMac so I was only on one computer.  I felt bad leaving Auruk out, but I took the twins to do [Wanted: Zorbo the Advisor].  Of course the XP is better without Auruk.  Ending up sticking around the Warmaul area grinding for powder and beads.  The level 65 and 66 mobs were easy.  I was mostly took on one each.  Also found several mining nodes including Khorium.  Finally got the iMac back up and brought in Auruk and she kept getting Warmaul skulls. I brought in Aprillian to do Tusker and when they were done, they got the achievement White Elek Nesingwary completion.  Aprillian continued on to do Dailies, while the twins and Auruk rode down into Terrakor to quest down there. Realized I need a high level DE, I have a Veyle, my level 40 Rogue who can DE up to 300, she can do Outland greens right now, so that's cool.  But I have Primall who is level 55 but is only 107.  Do I try to power level Veyle to Then I realized Aprillian was at 400 Tailoring, only 10 away from, so I spent money Friday night buying Frostweave Cloth Saturday I wanted to do the Lunar Festival but got hung up levelling Primall in enchanting.  She had a bunch of BOE stuff that she had gotten from Instances but wasn't high enough to DE.  But finally after getting Enchanting to 130, she and Veyle went to Valley of Wisdom and starting the Lunar Festival.   While in Moonglade Veyle ran up to Nighthaven to get the Runed Arcanite Rod recipe Locksmith? when asking for directions to Tailor.  Veyle is donating mageweave and silk cloth to up her xp. Guy begging in TB. Wanted 5g, I said I would give it to him in exchange for some leather. Elder Ezra replaced Elder Proudhorn Back in TB with Veyle and Primall.  Hopping around getting coins and in between stopping to level enchanting, and LW on Primall, the LW to get greens to DE.  Aprillian in Blade's Edge doing the Mana cell one and netherstorm doing the fury plans and Shutting Down Manaforge B'naar ended up teaming up with a Warlock 72 from Demise with Felhunter Sunday morning I took Epril, JC and Miner Level 66 to train, she hit 350 making an Adamanite ring, and she was able to train 59 recipes plus Grand master JC, 100g! Then she found the Lunar Festival Exclamation mark in Dalaran.  I logged on Elyte and the two of them did the initial quest.  Then I see people doing the  [Frenzied Firecracker]  and the  [The Rocket's Red Glare] achievements hard to do in laggy areas Then took Primall and Veyle to TB  to start coin collecting out that way but stopped in for the Un goro soil quest because Primall had  it and there was some soil in the bank.  Primall dinged 56.  Then they headed to Camp T Decided to take Primall and Veyle to RFD, yes I have ADD.  We got into the instance and a couple of greens dropped but decided to go back to do some more coins.  Veyle ported to Dalaran and summoned Primall, she still had Scryer for hearth. Then went to the Lunar festival in Dalaran, but they no longer had scrolls in their inventory.  They were able to get more from the Lunar chick After doing some research, I realized Primall could Ashayo Chef Ashayo at last! 3.0.8 added more cooking recipes so that the 45 version of The Northrend Gourmet was achievable. Either I miscounted, or they changed the total recipes available down from 46 because I was sure I could leave one out. The Fish Feast required 450 cooking to use, so I left it out. But it turned out I needed it. Which meant levelling cooking from 420 to 450, and since there wasn't any fish in the AH, I had to fish up about 50 of two kinds of fish and 50 rhino meat. I chose the Small Feast, since the fish it requires are both available in schools, so are easier to ensure you catch. Finally got enough mats and cooked up to 450... only to find the Fish Feast recipe required 5 Dalaran Cooking awards instead of the normal 3, and I only had 3 left. Waited for daily change-over, and it was the damn wine/cheese quest that only gives one cooking award. So I had to wait another 24 hours. In the meantime, made damn sure I had enough fish to actually make a Fish Feast once I learnt it. I was out when the dailies reset, and so finally and 2am this morning, I completed the cooking quest and got the Chef title. Phew! Worked on getting my enchanter up to 350 so he could DE level 78 gear. Wasn't too hard ; I'd stockpiled quite a few mats and the vellum's help alot. 2nd egg from Oracles hatched on my holidays - unfortunately both were aged yolk. Waiting for 3rd to hatch. 3.0.8 changes - Mining - don't have to loot to get skill up. - Rain of Fire animation (looks a bit like DK death and decay now) - Improved /follow while flying? (but toons look jerky) - Fire Seed now just millable (apparently increasing spell damage never worked anyway) - Pest Control - To all the squirrels who shared my life - Pygmy suckerfish more common (used by alchemists) - Preserved Holly - changed graphic and gives 1hr buff - but doesn't work with Dreadsteed! - Oracles - Appeasing the Great Rain Stone ; Shiny Treasures drop more often Tailor is making ebonweave and spellweave - nice that imbued frostweave requirements are down (glad I left that until after 3.0.8) Nagrand with DK - soloing level 68 group quests at 66. Camp Forge Fear chain. Did Durn the Hungerer with 1 DK and a healer. Started Lunar Festival - do for rep! Ashayo got 25 coins of ancestry and 10 Exalted Reputations (Undercity) at same time The ancestry coin for Gundrak is only available in Heroic mode. After I was in a group that completed it, summoned a bunch of other guildies to complete in easy mode. Glanthur Did a raid in Naxx (10-man) and got through a lot of the dailies in Icecrown.  I also respeced Arlaerus from Holy back to Protection.  I just really missed my shield spells.  Though, I need to get new gear now for him.  Epic flying for Arlaerus is now only 3K gold away.  I'd like to thank the guild Lost Chapter on Wyrmrest Accord for being an outstanding guild!  Thanks for all the fun times. Emails Email #1 from Tracey I just wanted to thank Aprillian for the advice on the Nagrand quest with the trampoline.  I worked on that darn quest for over an hour - with your suggestion on how to make the jump it worked on my 2nd try.  Another DK and I had to team up to kill the bird that worked well. I really get alot out of your podcasts and even though you tend to be a bit Hordish I enjoy it anyway. Have a great week - looking forward to the next podcast. Thanks, Tracey (Warhumpdy, Dkhumpdy) on Malygos (Hey to Hand of Destiny guildies) Email #2 from Patrick Hello folks Well I made another move from Garrosh to Wyrmrest Accord (now I am starting to sound like Aprillian).  The reason why I moved again is my friend missed the free window from Earthen Ring to Garrosh and we really wanted to team up and level as a group. The 2nd reason is the same as what Glanthur had stated about RP servers.  Like him, I just wanted to be on a RP server to watch role playing.  I, like Glanthur, am not a role player but I found that many players on RP servers are friendlier and tend to help out more.  Sure you always get the clowns, but in general, I find the attitude is far better. That's all for now. Email #3 from Xandarr Hello, it is Xandarr again.  http://ctrlaltwow.podbean.com/2009/01/16/ctrl-alt-wow-episode-97-respec-just-a-little-bit (But now I have made two new toons on the Perenolde Server with the Epic Dolls Guild.  You might know them as some of your fellow podcasters) Anyway, I was shocked to hear you read my email on the air.  I was so excited that when I got home that evening I let my wife listen to it.  BOY DID SHE ROLL HER EYES AT ME.  She said that not only was is more addicts trying to justiy my addiction with them, but that when she has our next baby in 8 months I have to give up the game entirely. ACK!!!  NO!!! Anyway, such is life right?  I am really not looking forwardto giving up WoW competely.  She dosn't realize I FIND MY TIME TO PLAY and NEED that time... desperately.  Even if it is an hour here or an hour there.  I just gotta find better times to make time for WoW after I take care of the baby and stuff.  I gotta find a way to make a deal with her.  Any ideas? I did write a review for you guys on I tunes under the name Jasper2112.  Love your show, and I am glad it is on weekly. FOR THE HORDE! Chilie & Cornbread (Tauren Hunter and pet cat) with Portirhouse (Tauren Death Knight) Dubbed "He-who-loves-food" by guildmates Common Dolls with the Epic Dolls guild on Perenolde Server Email #4 from Eranth Aprillian, Ashayo, Glanther (&Blade!) I thought I'd drop you a line for the next show and just make a few comments about the recent patch with the “Hunter Nerf” from the casual hunter's perspective. There had been a good deal of concern that this patch would really hose down the DPS of the Hunter.  While I believe that the result that Blizzard has come up with does tone down the DPS of the Beastmaster and likely the Marksman some, we may see the Survival Hunter tuned up to be more viable.  What I've noticed with my more casual play of my Beastmaster Hunter is that where my pets were pretty tough before, able to aggro, hold and grind down 4 or 5 mid-70's to upper-70's mobs, I'm having to throw down more Pet Mends to keep him up and going.  While I feel like my DPS has come down some, it's not nearly as drastic as I was imagining it would be. While I haven't crunched any numbers, my evidence is simply based on trying to pay attention to how encounters have gone, compared to how they felt they'd gone in the past.  I've done a fair amount of grinding out leather in Scholazar Basin, trying to pull in 3 or 4 mobs at a time, multi-shot and AOE them down, then collect the skins.  Again, the biggest difference I've noticed is having to throw down Mend Pet more often than before, because my pet isn't as tough as he used to be. I'd be interested to hear what others have experienced! Keep up the good work with Control-Alt-WoW! “Walk with the Earth Mother..” --Eranth AIE on Earthen Ring Email #5 iTunes Review

Aprillian and Glanthur talk about the latest events in Azeroth and how they affect their alts. We all know the main point of Lunar Festival, to get flight paths for lower level alts. And in the middle of it, I got Valentine's Day Fever. What a crazy week. Aprillian: I spent the whole week running around Azeroth. I didn't get to do any quests. All of my alts have major exp.  We all know the main point of Lunar Festival, to get flight paths for lower level alts.  And in the middle of it, I got Valentine's Day Fever. Emails Hey Aprillian and Glanthur, its triaa again (70 lock) I don't know if you had this answer questioned yet, but in episode 48 the question of what the choice between infernal or felhound was raised. Waht the choice in these quests is the choice of one of the two different offhand items, if i remember correctly, the infernal is for increasing the damage of fire soells in the destruction tree, what the felhunter choice gives you is an increase in shadow damage, such as those in the affliction tree. However in my opinion what you get from outland easily outdoes these quickly, unless you really need the experience I recomend skipping them. They are a very long and almost now pointless chain. Well thanks guys keep up the good work on the podcast. Triaa 2nd Email Hey Aprillian and Glanthur, its Triaa again(70 lock). I had an experience this past week where I helped to explain the different talent trees to a 60 lock who did not really understand them. This showed me that no matter how long you have been playing your class you can always learn something new, so I thought I'd give a quick overview of how I personally level a warlock. However I do recommend you play your class however you want, these are just my personal opinions. I personally found for the ranges of 10-49 having an affliction lock is actually the easiest way to go. And then after 50, I respecced to demonology for the Felguard, best choice I ever made on my warlock. The Felguard provides an amazing tank, and some of the spells you get in the demonology tree improve your character's abilities incredibly. I thought I would include a spec that i used at 50 and one i am currently using to farm at 70. If you guys ever have any warlock questions don't be afraid to ask. Keep up the good work. Here is the spec i used at level 50- http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/warlock/talents.html?0000000000000000000002052030131250102501251000000000000000000000 And the one I use at 70- http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/warlock/talents.html?0501220510000000000002052030131250103521351000000000000000000000 3rd Email Welcome to Dual-Boxing Glanthur! I agree with Aprillian ... FFA FTW, and get the follower to complete the quest first ... ALMOST. Why "almost"? When doing grinding quests such as "go find me 30 human heads", and you kill 10 humans and only 2 of them turn out to have heads,  (go figure) I found that it's faster while both character have the quest. If one character completes the quest, the drop rates seems to drop. I guess it makes sense mathematically. So I get the follower up to 29 heads, then work on the followee, so they both finish about the same time. Ash Glanthur is leaving.  RL sucks sometimes. Ashayo has graciously accepted

What's Going On I spent some time "Seeding" Servers with my alts. The Lunar Festival is a great time to put alts up and get Flight Paths. Then when or if you want an alt on that server, then they already have the flight paths. I wanted a Ravager on my Blood Elf. I figured out a way to get my Horde Character into the Alliance starting area. All it took was some trial and error and some dying.

No. 1. What's Going On Observations • Dranei men sound like Worf's father, is there a connection? Saw the Drainei mounts, very cool • Tip: If you are near and heading back to the inn you hearthed from and you need just one more space in your bag, you can destroy the stone and get a new one at the end House Cleaning • I took all of my alts to their banks and cleaned out their banks and bags. You probably have some stuff that you needed to get your craft up to the current level, put what you don't need on AH. Make it a fairly reasonable price. If it sells, you'll have some more money, if it doesn't, it will be mailed back to you, where you can keep it in your mailbox until you find another alt who needs it or you can use it, or sell it. This does mean you won't know when you get new mail. But for me, that's only important on my Banker alts to see if I sold something for big money on AH. You should already be sending all of your big AH stuff to your Banker alt. • Cleared Out Quest. o Looked for Quests that were collecting quests and completed as many as I could o Deleted grey quests unless I needed the rep Vendor in Alterac Valley – Rizz Loosebolt- I like those out of the way vendors, he can't repair but he can buy the vendor trash so you can stay out farming a little longer. He's in the area where the little fake cave is, it's called Slaughter Hollow, directly opposite the opening to Crushbridge Hold. Tried LOTR Stress Test • The character creation is limited because it reflects only what was in the books/movie human –mf, elf –mf, hobbit –mf, and dwarf male. No dwarf females because I guess they weren't in the book. But how do you get dwarf males without females? I also think you should be a big fan of the game before playing. I read the first book, the Hobbit, and of course the LOTR series is set after that. I couldn't get into the movies at all. • Some people were complaining that it looked like WoW, which is ridiculous. There's a set formula for any MMORPG, people were probably saying WoW looked like EQ • I didn't stay on the server very long, but it looked pretty. No. 2. WoW NewsYou Tube WoW endorsed Video contest, http://worldofwarcraft.com You Tube WoW endorsed Video contest,http://www.guildlaunch.com/ • Great for Guilds, even better for people with alts. I stumbled onto this on Digg.com. It sounded promising, so I decided to give it a try. I was really impressed. For free you get a very well put together and customizable site that includes forums, roster, a calendar and a wiki. • With a minimum amount of effort, I made a pretty nice site: http://ctrlaltwow.guildlaunch.com/ • It uses an addon on called Guild Launch Profiler http://support.guildlaunch.com/guild/library/535/GuildLaunchProfilerCURRENT.zip • There are several steps to adding characters that must be done on a regular basis or the info will be outdated. Once the addon is loaded, you have to right click your avatar pic and select Create Guild Launch Profile for each of your characters. If you want to include information from the bank, you have to take that character to the bank, likewise you have to go to the stable master to get all of your pet info. Also open all of your tradeskills, you'll see a listing of what you can make scroll by in chat. This creates a file called GuildLaunchProfiler.lua which is located in "World of Warcraft/WTF/Account////SavedVariables/GuildLaunchProfiler.lua">. You upload this file on your Character Page and it uploads a whole lot of information up to the website about your character. Now you can easily see the skills, levels, items the character can craft even when you aren't online. It also conveniently provides a direct link that you can later use to get No. 3. Alt Round UpPril & Zee • Zee has been helping Treshel with her JC. Pril & Zee • Zee has been helping Treshel with her JC.Creed & Ctraltwow • Creed has been disenchanting the lower level JC that Treshel has been making. He put some of the Strange Dust on AH and made some gold Aprillian • Working on cleaning out her Quest Log, picked up the Errand for Apothecary Zinge - (Step 1) quest in UC while doing the Valentine's day quest. This quest requires a trip to Tanaris. Which was great because she had the Wastewander Justice - (Step 1) Quest undone, so she took Rilfire with her. • Also got another coin from the Elder in Un Goro Crater Rilfire • Made several Comfortable Hats with the recipe Illia sent her. Ilia paid 16 gold on AH for the recipe, but she's already sold 2 at 3 gold so I should make my money back. Rilfire did the Errand for Apothecary Zinge - (Step 1) and Wastewander Justice - (Step 1) with Aprillian, both she and Aprillian made some serious gold just vendoring the stuff dropped and the money from the Wastewander Bandits and Thieves. Treshel • She made the change, dropped Herbalism and took up Jewel Crafting. I spent some time trying to get the gem and mining bags for her. You have to go to Outland to get them. I was in Silvermoon when a 260ish level Jewel Crafter who was upper 60's was asking what level everyone was. I asked him about the bags, he had one but didn't realize it was BOE. Then he mentioned he was having a time with JC because he couldn't find gold. Using Character viewer, I found a stack of gold ore and a stack of gold bars and offered them to him if he would go to Outland and get the bags. Turned out there was only one mining bag and he didn't realize I wanted the Jewel as well, but I got the mining bag for the two stacks of gold, which was good. • Also cleaned out some Quest stuff and managed to solo the Apothecary Zinge - (Step 1) Quest and the Into the Field - (Step 3) in Tanaris and did the timed quest Tanaris Field Sampling “Acquire acceptable samples for 8 basilisks, 8 hyenas, and 8 scorpions. Bring the testing kit back to Chief Engineer Bilgewhizzle in Gadgetzan before the power source runs out.” Which I loved. Theeo • Didn't do much this week Sherinna • Level 14 Just did the Lunar Festival Quest – She got the 2 for 1 deal with the rockets I tried to do it with all my alts just in case I decide to play them down the road. She had 6 coins so she got the dress and a pack of dumplings Bankers/Sellers • Trex o April got 10 Dragonhawk Hatchlings to him o Actually got to Darnassus and made Dolanaar his home. Did some quests there • Illia o Didn't sell a lot of moths / the market is down. Did sell a pair of Ogre Kickers Treshel picked up from the two headed Ogre in Crushbridge Hold –d. o Sold a Comfortable Hat for 3 gold, see where that goes. Someone on I think it was Thotbott said he sold them for 1.5 gold. No. 4.
