Okay, so I'm fashionably late joining in on this (yes yes, I'm a slacker ^^)
As you have no doubt noticed, I do have rather a lot of alts. I love learning how to play a class and trying to figure out how other classes work too.
That's when I read everyone else joining on on Alt Appreciation, an idea started by Laeleiweyn over at World of Lae.
I currently have two druids - one on Alliance and one on Horde.
My Alliance druid is called Sofîa, here is a recent pic of her:
We have had many adventures together, with her being my "main" for most of the end of Wrath, the whole of Cataclysm and Mists up until the start of this year.
She is the character I ground out most of my reputations on, and collected all my mounts, and even completed Loremaster with her (most of which was before the Shattering prior to Cata, Kalimdor was reset as I was 7 quests short xD).
My druid started out early in Wrath as Aurallia:
I was so excited with her when she first learned each form!
First was bear, then cat:
She even looked great on her mount and in travel form!
As the years went on, we tried many different specs and outfits, and changed her name to match what everyone called me:
Then came Mists.
We went exploring and bought some shiny new things together! We even tried raiding but things didn't really feel the same.
And so, I decided to move to Horde.
I had made my horde druid quite a while earlier, in the middle of Cata I believe.
Ladies and Gentlemen, meet Shafîa:
Shafîa has had quite a varied life so far!
She started life on Steamwheedle Cartel. She was a member of The Drafia while I levelled her.
Then she got transferred to Khadgar for a change of pace on a busy-ish server, with a few friends who were making alts there too. Shafîa was the designated money and gear mule as a higher level, and set up a guild over there called Wanderers Abroad (as we were all members of the The Wanderers on Alliance SWC and these were only time killing alts!).
Suffice to say, we levelled a couple of chars to around level 30, and then didn't bother coming back.
While on Khadgar though, she did find some fun things ^^
Shortly after we stopped playing the alts on Khadgar, I moved her back to SWC and left her languishing in The Drafia.
Then at the start of the year I learned The Drafia were moving to Draenor, which was supposedly a lot busier, so I decided to move her with them and give it a try.
Apparently I was having such a good time I forgot to take any more screenshots of poor Shafîa, but I got her to 90, and started grinding a fair few of reps, intending to tank on her. I even started raiding on her before switching to the hunter.
She has seen some more love with the Battlefield:Barrns weekly, as you can no doubt tell from her first picture, and has slowly been building a resto set, as I haven't druid healed properly since Dragon Soul and I miss it ^^
So there you have it. Yes, I may have a lot more to say about one of my Druids than the other, but they are both very special to me and I appreciate them lots!
As the title suggests, I'm slowly getting back in to the swing of things now the Warlock is levelled ^^
I'm remembering that Twitter exists, I'm catching up on blogs (though this Alt week thing confuses me, is it Druid week this week? How do I find where to catch up??), and I've started reading fan faction, of various kinds. I'm starting my own little story elsewhere but it has nothing to do with WoW and will likely end up being mature content so we shall see, exciting times!
More patch notes out today showing some lovely little buffs for hunters which give me a nice warm glow inside, even if I'm not entirely sure which of my alts will be vying for the most attention next patch. I'm still leaning towards the Hunter, but will definitely be doing some alt runs on the Lock.
The Drafia have merged a smaller guild in with us as well, so lots of exciting activity and business going on at the moment. We're actually doing our first proper raid tonight in ToT Normal so will be interesting to see how people mix! It's also my first proper raid since the group I was in before kind of drifted apart so I'm really looking forward to it.
Hopefully some of the Lock's recent loot luck will rub off on the Hunter!
Also, the European Closed Beta for Hearthstone is due soon :D I'm looking forward to the upcoming Twitter frenzy ^^ I've opted in so may even get to have a play around and see what it's like for myself ^^
I'm loving my Warlock. To the point where I've not logged the hunter in over a week, and I've managed to VP cap the warlock, who has been 90 now for 3 days, and is ilvl 489.
Seriously, this girl has had 21 different epics drop for her in the last day and a half.
The game is trying to send me a message:
"Please, play this class, we think it will be good, see? Have all the shinies!"
Tonight I'm going to play in Firelands with her (hopefully) and see how it goes, may be a potential change in the air for a while (as we all know I'll eventually go back to my hunters ^^)
However, this also means that my plan to have as many characters ready to beat Garrosh in the face as possible next patch is right on track ^^
I noticed as well that the emails with the codes for Blizzcon tickets have gone out and virtual tickets should be around soon ^^ Can't wait to see how much they are and whether I can talk myself into buying a virtual one again this year.
Speculation on whether the next expansion will be announced is high, especially after the "leak" of details on 4chan by the guy who apparently did the same thing before Cata and Mists - a great post about it and a copy of the details are over on The Big Bear Butt
It does give some interesting ideas, but obv. we have no idea how legit. it might be, which is part of the fun ^^
So yes, as I said before, Warlock is now 90!
Also thanks to some incredible good luck, she is geared for ToT LFR already :o
She also has her first grown up transmog :D
About to head into ToT now and see if the luck follows me ^^
In other news, we've had some nice new members from another guild merge with us, and things are looking good :D
In other news, there seems to be some leaked information purporting to be about the next expansion, made for some interesting reading!
For the most part I like the sounds of it if it does turn out to be true, apart from the underwater bits, as I really didn't like Vashj'ir!
