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.

At the Forbidden(ish) Reach

 It turns out it's actually not that hard to get here, I'd say it's a Frowned Upon Reach at most. Nice place, though.

Well, This Is Awkward

 

I mean, it's not the first time I've fought myself in Warcraft, but I think it's the first time in dragon-form? Regardless, I think I'm going to go with Ezristrasza for my Drakonid character (when I get around to making one).

Avoiding Diplomatic Blunders

"How about the time some centaurs invited me to 'ride along' to their next stop and I noticed the Riding Bakar they provided just before I committed a serious faux pas (hoof?)"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mêlée Their Fears

 Rocksy: "Ok, I see. Allay their Fears. With the crook. So just shepherd them to some anima so they feel better?"

Korinna: "Oh, you sweet summer child. No, this crook is going to suck the anima and soul right out of them."

Rocksy: "But..won't that just exacerbate their fears, like... the opposite of allay?"

Korinna: "Nah, they'll be dead. You'll have to kill them so the crook can absorb everything."

Rocksy: "Er...So I'm going to BEAT them with this stick?"

Korinna: "Just do whatever it is you Shaman do. Throw rocks. Lightning bolts. Balls of lava. I don't care. Just kill them and the crook will fill up so you can complete the ritual and release their souls. May the gentle sound of bells follow you always." 

Rocksy: "Omg, NO. I don't want to hear the sound their souls make after all this. Does D.E.H.T.A. know about this place? Let's just never speak of this again, okay?"

Night Fae Musings

 -or-
Maybe the Real Treasure...

Nah. I do want Gus' crittershape to add to my collection, it's even cuter than the Corgi. My whirlwind tour of the covenants came to a grinding (ha!) halt recently and I'm now trying to fit it all into the weekends. I hope I can get done with Night Fae before the next expansion. 

I did find out that if you soulshape just prior to taking this quest you get a moment to enjoy the sight of a Brontofly. Or Butterosaurus. I should have gone with Alpacafly. 

I also got this handsome fellow, and realized that he's a Luck Dragon..

Which gives me more chores to do, collecting the different colors. So, so lucky. 

I did find the time to do some things for Bwonsamdi. His quests were annoying, especially as an engineer. Every time I'd conjure up a wormhole, he'd have some portal ten yards away (or halfway across Ardenweald) that you had to use to get the quest objective to show up. And the lighting in the Necropolis was nil. It's embarrassing how many times I walked off the edge here. Even for me. I was even more "i HaVe nO idEa WhAT iM dOInG" than I usually am. Perpetual noob.
