The War in Warcraft

I love how my husband is all gun-ho about never playing Warcraft again. He calls it Heroin and I love telling him that Star Trek Online is Cocaine and once SWTOR comes out it will be his Meth. You see, what he is in denial about is he is addicted to MMO's not just specifically World of Warcraft, and I find it amusing he uses that excuse as the reason for quitting Warcraft after Ensidia got banned. He is ultimately one of those people in Warcraft you conciser an "Elitist Jerk" In fact he got banned from the EJ site because the moderator of the hunter forum didn't like him, for calling them out on some incorrect information. In his eyes, he is one of the best, has been the best seen it all will always be "the all" in any guild hes in and his attitude has made him rage quit from some of the best guilds out there. Not to mention draining our bank account from hopping server to server in hopes of finding a guild.

Anyways so why is there a war in my house with WoW. Well I don't agree with his choices of quitting warcraft over a ban given to Ensidia in fact he and I will still butt heads as to our opinions on that matter, and that matter in itself is another blog. He now doesn't understand why I am doing these trivial in his eyes things in Warcraft to keep me sane when I cannot raid. See, I am hitting a dry spot for raiding. On the server I am on, eyes I do not meet their standards regardless of how good my gear is because I have not fully completed ICC so I cannot pug what I need to pug to get the experience I need. So I will end up running in circles like a true bored raider in Dalaran, or now in my new pursuit gaining exalted with the biggest pain in the ass reps I can. So as it stands I am now exalted with sporegarr, Cenarian Hold, and Circle, not to mention I am almost exalted with Thorium Brotherhood, Zandalar Tribe, and Timbermaw Hold. I am exalted with almost every WOTLK rep I just need Kaluk and I will have all the reps to max. OH! I am also almost exalted with the Netherwing rep. I need to also get exalted with the Brood since I have to turn in this eye of C'thun and I cannot since I am a dippy dork and killed archiolos way to many damn times to count resulting in my hole of hatred far worse than the typical WoW player. I feel like a dumb ass and still kicking myself for that. Not to mention being murdered by a level 57 while afk yesterday. Got to love carbonite and teabagging night elf druid named Immacat. Epic fail on my part. I am so used to being on a PvE server I have had this bad habit of getting into my old habits of afking in the middle of wide open spaces because I am not flagged but now since I am on a PvP server its all surprise butt sex if I do not hide my ass when afk or if I can fly fly as far up in the air that nobody can gank me. My point is, regardless of if I am raiding or not I will come up with ways to enjoy and be productive while playing WoW to get my $$'s worth in game. 14.99 a month is a lot of money if your sitting there doing nothing scratching your balls or your ass or boobs if your a chick. If you want to do that, then you can do that for free no need to pay 14.99 a month to let your toon do it with you! Plus there are a lot of things I need to do in prep for Cataclysm.

Long story short my Mage is made for raiding, its like in my blood but I know I will never be a elitist jerk in game or out because I do not carry the cocky arrogant rude attitude that most you see portray who do not give a fuck about anyone else besides themselves and refuse to help anyone. Myself I will always help those who need it with out expecting anything although a thank-you would be nice from those who I do help which most do give me. Others just use me and kick me out of party. Everyone was once new to this game or new to raiding, needing gear etc. Pisses the hell out of me when players forget that and get all cocky and shitty to guild members and friends not to mention others because all those shiny epics THOSE GUILD MEMBERS AND FRIENDS HELPED THEM GET makes them so l33t and sexy that they get cocky and bad ass and think they can do anything the fuck they want and get away with it. That attitude makes a lot of douches and I have met my fair share of them.

/end rant

Next post I make when my head is hurting less will be my UI, what addons I use as a mage who raids, and a in-depth look on my mage, my spec, and my arcane and how I swing it.

Wrapped in Warcraft



I have been lost in the land of reading Warcraft lore and geeking out with all the new stuff coming to World of Warcraft. Now I have my own speculation as to how the twilight hammer is involved in Cataclysm but that in a sense is pretty obvious if you have ever paid attention to lore or been to Sithlus. The Twilight Hammer is all about worshiping and summoning the "old Gods" and were if I remember correctly responsible for the resurrection of C'thun in Ahn’Qiraj. Neltharion a.k.a Deathwing was driven to insanity by the voices of an old god but by which? Neltharion was able to create a Demon Soul to which to my understanding contains great power and was captured by the Night Elves. Now, here is my theory currently as to how the Twilight Hammer play a important role in the escapism of Neltharion/Deathwing and why I feel that the Cenarian Circle will play another significant role in the Cata event prior to the release of the game. The more I think about it the more I know I am pretty close to being right I may have a few things off. I was doing the final quests in Sithlus and I came across a quest that says some really interesting things.

Geologist Larksbane says: It is history... A history of Silithus... of Ahn'Qiraj... of Titans and Old Gods... I read from the prophecy of C'Thun as written by the Qiraji Prophet Skeram. A prophecy that portends a cataclysm...

Geologist Larksbane says: In the time before time, when the world was still in its infancy, a battle between a Titan and a being of unimaginable evil and power raged on this very soil. The prophecy is unclear about whether or not the Titan was vanquished in this battle but it illustrates that a Titan fell. An Old God had also fallen - or so it was thought.

Geologist Larksbane says: For millennia this being lay dormant beneath the world - biding its time. From its prison it waited for the exact moment at which to strike back at those that would see it harmed.

Geologist Larksbane says: The land of eternal starlight, Kalimdor, was a nurturing mother to all of its creatures. The magic of the Well of Eternity permeated the land and empowered the multitude of flora and fauna that would make the world their home. From this magical ether were born the silithid. It was through the silithid that the brooding Old God would reach and attempt to sunder the world that it once held in its unmerciful grasp.

Geologist Larksbane says: The Old God would create avatars from the silithid in its own image. These avatars were to be known as Qiraji. Sentient and with purpose, the Qiraji would name their creator: C'Thun was born... For many thousands of years the Qiraji worked feverishly to build a force capable of laying waste to the world that would betray their god. The great fortress city of Ahn'Qiraj was created to house their growing armies and prepare for the coming of C'Thun

Geologist Larksbane says: This can't be right. An Old God could never be allowed to enter this world. The results would be... Oh dear!

Geologist Larksbane says: There is more.

Geologist Larksbane says: The moment that C'Thun had so patiently waited for had finally arrived. His children had spent thousands of years building an army capable of exacting revenge upon the whole of Kalimdor and now the prize was within their grasp.

Geologist Larksbane says: The Titans had long since vacated this world. Only the night elves that once inhabited this area were here to defend. Oh my! The next passage is fascinating!

Geologist Larksbane says: A mighty Qiraji known as General Rajaxx would command the initial incursion into Silithus. Only one would stand in his way: A night elf known as Staghelm. They refer to him as Khar'sis or 'hand of the earth' in the native Qiraji tongue.

Geologist Larksbane says: Staghelm and his armies were clearly overwhelmed as the endless flow of Rajaxx's troops poured into Silithus. It would seem as if Staghelm, however, was more than just a nuisance to the Qiraji. Under Staghelm, the whole of the night elf armies had come together to defend Kalimdor, greatly slowing the Qiraji forces.

Geologist Larksbane says: Unfortunately, the night elf defense was untenable and Rajaxx knew that they could not hold out much longer. Their tenacity, however, was causing great frustration to Rajaxx and causing even more frustration to his king. Wait, kings? Incredible.. .

Geologist Larksbane says: Vek'nilash and Vek'lor, known as the Twin Emperors of Ahn'Qiraj, watched the war from the sanctuary of their temple. The clever brothers devised a plan to demoralize and divide Staghelm's forces.

Geologist Larksbane says: Valstann Staghelm served as the right hand of Fandral. A proud and noble warrior, his dedication and adoration for his father unyielding.. . and the Twin Emperors sensed this as weakness. A weakness that could be exploited.

Geologist Larksbane says: The Qiraji forces were commanded to fall back and hide the bulk of their numbers beneath the sands of the desert. A small attack was ordered upon Southwind Village while the front lines of Staghelm's army were kept occupied.

Geologist Larksbane says: Valstann, eager to please his father, convinced Fandral to allow him to take a small battalion to the defense of Southwind. Surely with the tide of battle turning their way, no harm could come to his beloved child. The trap was missed. Valstann was captured by the hiding Qiraji and Southwind Village obliterated. Rajaxx himself would take the captive Valstann to the front lines of the battle where - in front of Staghelm and the night elf forces - he would brutally execute the young night elf.

Geologist Larksbane says: The war continued but the will of the great leader was sapped. The whole of Silithus was soon engulfed by the silithid and their Qiraji hosts.

Geologist Larksbane says: Poor man, this explains so much.

Geologist Larksbane says: The night elf army was pushed back through Un'Goro, to the borders of the Tanaris desert. Something in Un'Goro prevented the Qiraji from being able to take the land. I do not quite understand this word but I believe it to mean 'God Lands.' It is stated that they could not 'take the God Lands.'

Geologist Larksbane says: Fascinating, this coincides with theories of Un'Goro being the home of the Titans when they inhabited Kalimdor. Perhaps Aman'thul himself watched over 'The God Lands.'

Geologist Larksbane says: Hrm, curious... This ends abruptly. In Tanaris the Qiraji document facing a bronze dragon. There is much missing from this... More information must be found! Surely they are planning to invade Kalimdor once more!

Baristolth of the Shifting Sands shifts uncomfortably.

Baristolth of the Shifting Sands says: When the time is right, my lady. All will be clear when the time is right. The master stirs even now. Look to the skies for the Brood of Nozdormu have returned.

Does this mean that C'thun was the one that turned Neltharion insane? We know that the twilight hammer is envolved and maybe the Cenarian Circle is trying to prevent Cataclysm from happening. C'thun could have told the twilight hammer to break deathwing out of prison.
