Blood Pilgrimige: The DK blog begins
WoW Blogs - Blood Pilgrimage Deathknight Blog
Okay here we go, obviously this is my first ever blog post on the crusadercoliseum and i have to say that i'm a bit nervous about it, mainly to know what you guys are going to think of it, and to know how it's gonna stack up against all those masterfully crafted blogs from the other authors on the site. (going for a points here people!!!)
Whats going to be included in this Blog:
1) Introduction. (that bits up there!!!)
2) The Weekly Gaming Grind.
3) The world of Warcraft Medical Patch Up.
4) World of Warcraft Forum Garbage.
5) Questions and Hopefully Answers.
2) The Weekly Gaming Grind.
Where I get to Moan about My weeks Spot of Gaming...and hopefully not bore you to tears... or insanity...
Okay, so what's been happening to me this week? Well to be very honest with you people..Not much. I suppose you could indeed say that I hit a large milestone...yes, thats right folks, I hit 70... and Oh DEAR...
What I really don't understand is that When you are level 69, You need around 800,000 exp to get from 69 to 70 ok I can deal with that, 4 instances on rested, or about one area of hard questing, okay, thats not much to ask.
It scales with the previous levels, fine...but what I really cannot understand, is once you hit 70, and look at your experience bar...oh. my. god. I needed over 1 million exp to level. I tell you people, it almost put me off playing for a minute...I was so stunned I had to go and Make a Cup of Tea...WoW never makes me need a cup of tea...Blizzard...You're so Damn cruel...Swines... anyway, I am now level 71...it only took me 7 and a half friggin, painful, tedious hours of Questing, Instancing, broken by the nice screams of some douchy Alliance rogue's death screams after he killed an elemental I needed for a quest turn in...bloody Night Elves...
I also got to run the first 3 WOTLK Instances. 2 of which I found very interesting...yes, UTGARDE KEEP...OH DEAR..
I had heard Totalbiscuit moan about this Instance before, but nothing he said would have prepared me for the mind numbingly boring experience of running through this stupid lava, fire and brimstone based piece of trash...the only interesting and humerous thing that happened was when the large Nordic final boss dude dropped... and then got resurrected,
Muggins here was the only PILLOCK to stand close to his corpse and be hit by the AoE attack that drops when he drags his worthless arse back out of the after-life. Needless to say, we did manage to finish the dungeon without wiping, which is a bonus.
On the other hand, the nexus and ohh, whats the other one...oh yeah, Azjol-Nerub. They where quite interesting, the nexus took me back to the TBC Mana Tombs (add nostalgia), but that was good. They were both good instances, and the Nexus quest did give me a very beastly set of Blue Tundra pauldrons, which are very nicely stated and look rather fetching on my Tauren dude. Azjol-Nerub though...okay, I found it short, and a bit of a throw back to borean tundra...killing spiders...okay I know I know, but that thing had like 3 bosses in the first room, and then a Huge Mother spider ripped straight out of Lord of The rings (a Nod to Shelob). Muggins here was the only pillock who spent 2 seconds in the beasts poisonous death gas...and died twice to it... Thats so typical, no Mob can touch me, yet shove some Toxic Spider farts down my throat and i fall like a sack of s***... dunno if i can say that here, but what the hell.
3) The world of Warcraft Medical Patch up.
Where you get your weekly dose of Vitamin Warcraft** Vitamin Warcraft may cause Nostalgia, loss of brain power, tiredness, Kidney Failure, stomache cramps and tedious Ganking. Vitamin Warcraft is Not actually a Vitamin, but can be purchased from most good drug stores. for the modest price of 25g minus tax and VAT.
Okay, this is the part of the blog where I tell you all the stuff that has changed to the DeathKnight class
due to The Almighty overlords of Blizzard getting bored, and deciding that all the classes need a little
reshuffle.
In patch 3.3.5, nothing has changed on any of the classes, presumably due to the release or change of the assault
on Ruby Sanctum, I'll paste The paragraph That describes this Bit of Lore, (yes i did say LORE!!) below.
An eerie silence has settled over the Ruby Sanctum, the red dragonflight's sacred lair within the Chamber of the Aspects.
This troubling development has led to fears that the sanctum, home to Azeroth's largest clutch of red dragon eggs, has
been breached by an unknown, sinister force. If these claims are true and immediate action is not taken, the benevolent
red dragonflight might be crippled forever.
...and thats all very interesting. Anyway, I would have Put the Previous patches DeathKnight changes onto
this Blog, but that would be Stupid, and cause me to turn into a sheep, because those changes are now weeks old.
When the new patch comes out, i will put all the changes into next weeks blood pilgrimage.
4) Warcraft Forum Garbage
Serving up your weekly dose of WoW forum Shovelware.
In this part of the blog, I have a rummage around the wow-europe deathknight forums looking for embarrasing, Stupid, and maybe even a sensible post (if there is such a thing) and comment or generally rip into it. I'll link the forum post in here, and add my comments below the link.

okay I picked this guys post, purely because he's obiously New to the DK class, but I dont think I even need to rip into this post, because the first reply does it all for me. The reply is essentially giving good solid advice, but some of the points it highlights are legendary. seriously take a look at this one guys, it makes me laugh.

This one I picked because It seems like a very obvious question to me...If your wearing T9, and have a set bonus from it, Of course the set bonus is going to be good...why would Blizzard put it in the game if it was bad...FOOLISH PERSON...

I picked this one Because of the first answer, it is a legend answer. This is the first reference to gearscore I have seen on the forums. (admittedly I havent looked) and it is a Debuff of an answer, the dude insults gearscore...I know there are alot of you
who use gearscore, but people must start realising- GS is a BAD system...it's another case of bring the class not the player, and all people who advertise for raid groups ask for a certain amount of GS... It's so dumb...
