So the expansion is nigh. We will be letting go of a lot of our old practices and journeying forward towards other. It is said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and that we can only know where we are going if we know where we have been.
So for the sake of the journey to level 80 we will all be making here are some of my memories of this world of wowcrack, i hope you enjoy.
My oldest SS, taken the day I turned 60. This dragon thing was part of the whole onyxia quest chain for horde side, and yup, 4kHP was considered descent unbuffed hp for entry level UBRS tanks. I still have that weapon in my bank, not getting rid of it for anything. Nightmare Kingdom, my very first guild, good people, lousy raiders.
Ah my first proper raid, 20-man, Zul-Gurub. I remember my heart beating so fast, this was it, this was why I leveled to 60 as a prot warrior XD.
Soon after that zg I left Nightmare Kingdom and was somehow accepted into of the best raiding guilds on the server, Wraithsteel Legion, where I first met Doofazoid(janega) and Kreger, this is about mid-2006. This is the entrance to ony, btw. My first 40-man, me in all blues, lol. We ended up killing her that night but I didn’t tank, too weak XD
Well I had to get ready for the next big thing, MOLTEN CORE!11
People running me through BRD for attunement=win
I managed to get into MC the following week and I met…yes...big...bad…old
This was so epic, 40 man full epici’d out raiders and me, one noob troll in blues.
Core hounds are op, kk. Back then if u told me hunters could one day tame em as pet’s id laugh hard.
Then the WSL aussies, the people raiding in my time zone decided to split up and form Nocturnus Vexillari, where I met Frozenn, who remains one of my best bud’s till today(Nefance) and Randhi (Talulah), too bad you guys haven’t heard him on vent, he’s hilarious.
Halloween 2006. That’s Grimiss and Llama in the background btw, most of us from azjol should know them.
Costume madness is nothing new XD.
AHN’QUIRAJ!!1 This is just after the gates opened on the server and we were having out first go at AQ20.
Azuergos, one of the world dragons and one of the hardest tank fights out there, she dropped typhoon, one of the most ‘hunter-weapon’ discussed items.
Raiding hit a high note as NV demolished mc and did well in bwl; AQ40 was the only problem though, till we hit fankriss, the third boss. This is before the ‘suppression’ room if anyone remembers.
Same people, 10mins…ok, 90mins, 5 wipes later
This is about end ’06 and burning crusade was very near. So what does any wow addict do…ROLL ALLIANCE!!11
This was my first of 4 paladins, Calimos.
He was already 60 at this point and sporting a sexy leather skirt and green gloves, which I used till BWL. This scene was part of the alliance ony quest chain, one of the coolest quest chains in the game, imo.
The guard knows his stuff, kek.
Ony in stormwind, AMG
Nothing like dragons running amok around a capital city to make the healer in me happy.
Lolret?! The first and only time I went ret on this guy.
Then 2007 came and with it…da burning crusade.
Leveling SS’s are boring so yeah….at tbc I decided to quit my warrior and roll a pally, elarion. Who is now known as Liharadin. I had, at this point transferred of our old server, azjol-nerub, and gone with NV to dath’remar as it was oceanic.
I took a break from wow for studies, did a few Kara’s now and then and left NV in the process due to a disagreement with the GM, went to sanctuary, another KJ guild also on dath. So this is my first proper 25-man raid, feeling like an ultra noob.
A lot of bla bla happened after that, boring stuff, I got 5/6, 3/4 with sanctuary before packing my bags once more and heading back to azjol where I joined rapture with Oyvid, dae, ballzie, sk, nau, uncle zouk and all the other officers.
I hope your opinions haven’t changed, guys XD
We slummed around on azjol for a while before, getting tired of the lack of raiding, moved here to nagrand and created BOOBS! Well the guild.
Boob’s first raid, Kara
Our first kill in TK
I honestly was against doing alar because I thought, at such an early juncture of raiding, we would have no hope. But I was wrong and have never been happier being so. Then we pushed into true end-game content.
Yes, that’s what my fps gets to when I aoe tank XD
I quit my pally after that as we needed another dps warrior. I felt imzra could take over for me so I agreed to bring lihar back into the picture.
One thing led to another and we hit up BT.
Mother down
-------------------------------------------
I guess that’s it, my memories of this game since its first inception to the very present. It has been a roller coaster ride unlike any other and im happy to be where I am now.
So all I have to say is, let’s march forward into new content together and show people that we are just more than a leet guild name.
