Here Comes the Noblegarden Gryphon


 I haven't been paying attention to holidays for so long, I barely made it on before the end of Noblegarden to get the pet/toys I didn't have yet. And I had to make a new transmog (thanks to the trading post) to go along with them. Luckily I'm terrible at Plunderstorm so I don't have to waste any time on that!

Now I Just Need a Sleigh

 I love the Trading Post. Also, I forgot that I had fished at the Darkmoon Faire and was, therefore, wearing a fish head at the time I took the screenshot (what ELSE are you supposed to do with those besides put it on?). I probably should have waited until Winter Veil to get a shot with the sleigh in Orgrimmar, but I was too excited and I like this area in the Emerald Dream. Plus it's easier to see the bugs to stomp on when you use the Inky Black Potions, and I don't like to waste them so I had to get in all the screenshots I could.

Can't Druid While Shamaning :(


 The new broom is instacast during Hallow's End. A permanent broom mount-that is freaking instacast-during Hallow's End.
I thought I must be dreaming.

 

But it turns out I kinda was, because, while it IS instacast (which is a-freaking-mazing), it CANNOT be cast while moving, which is pretty much the biggest drawback to instacast I could've ever imagined. Because running and jumping off of stuff is my whole raison d'ĂȘtre. So I guess I still have to get the event broom during Hallow's End every year anyway. 

C'est la vie.

Ok, Now What?


 

Every time I finish the trading post reward, I log out immediately because I can't think of anything else that I need to do. I guess I need to think of some other goals to work on (like cleaning out my bank, AHEM) or...maybe something more fun than that. I love dragonriding but I recently realized that I've never actually used the '1' button and it finally occurred to me to check what it was and I was FLABBERGASTED. I kept thinking "I wish I could just go forward instead of up and forward when I push '2'" and it turns out I COULD but all this time I've been too dumb to even look at what all of the buttons do! The only ones I use regularly are '2', to go up and gain speed when I've lost momentum, and '3', to go farther faster. So, now I'm going to have to do ALL the dragonriding races again since I've never finished a single one above Bronze (clearly only because they don't award Tin or Aluminum). 

Or maybe I'll just sit and enjoy the view.

Resurrected

We didn't clear trash
He walked up patrolling
It came insta-cast,
HP low, and falling
And I'm thinking, "why'd this happen…
Ankh is on cooldown…"
Hope you're feeling, like some healing
I need my rez now
All will be, eventually, returned into the light
I'm just waiting on my rez, too. Bring me back to life!
Noobs, Elites, and even DeePS, we all deserve to fight
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
I'm just waiting on my rez, too, tonight
I stood in a trap
Stuck there in place, frozen
His debuff hit fast
His target was chosen
And I'm thinking, "why'd this happen…
Ankh is on cooldown…"
Hope you're feeling, like some healing
I need my rez now
All will be, eventually, returned into the light
I'm just waiting on my rez, too. Bring me back to life!
Noobs, Elites, and even DeePS, we all deserve to fight
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
We're all just waiting for our rez, too, this fight
Resurrect me, tonight
Rez me, please, tonight
Rez me, please, tonight
All will be, eventually, returned into the light
I'm just waiting on my rez, too. Bring me back to life!
Noobs, Elites, and even DeePS, we all deserve to fight
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
I'm just waiting on my rez, too
We're all just waiting for our rez, too, this fight
Resurrect me, tonight
Rez me, please, tonight
Rez me, please, tonight

Everything's Coming up Rocksy

 I am very much enjoying Dragonflight so far, and Dragon-flying is super fun, although I do miss my regular mount/regular flying a bit every now and then. It really feels like this entire expansion has been all about Shamans, what with all the primalists and elementals everywhere. It's very flattering when you're in combat and they're using all of your spells on you. 

"Oh, really? You're casting Lightning Bolt? That is ADORAble! You are doing GREAT, so I'll go ahead and let you get most of the way through it before I interrupt you, ok?"

But besides that, the Trading Post has been completely amazing, and it seems like every month it has something purple to go with my outfit transmog! A beautiful cloud serpent mount, my new cloak, a beautiful bird mount...I have been very pleased with the Trading Post offerings thus far, and it's easy enough that I can do it even though I can only play on weekends now.

♫The Lovers, the Dreamers, Rocksy♫

"The Warlocks, the Druids, Rocksy...all of us under its spell, we know that it's probably Mage-ish"

 I'd forgotten all about the Prismatic Bauble! Worth every copper. It seems like it was originally going to be a mage thing, because I remembered wanting to macro it with slow fall, but I haven't played my mage in forever. I was pretty happy with the results of macroing the Fae Pipes from Ardenweald to my hearthstone, but Rainbow Glider is definitely my best macro ever.
