As someone who spent a couple of hours running in circles while shape-shifted into rabbit-form, picking up eggs around Azure Watch, I’ve been surprised at the number of people who’ve spent their time camping at a spawn-point for several eggs (quite a few I picked up from in front of them as I travelled past at near-supersonic speed).
If I wanted to sit in one place and click on an egg when it spawns after however many minutes, I’d probably be missing the old 30-second duration of fishing. Actually, even the old fishing system would be more fun than egg-camping, for me at least. I just don’t get it.
But I’ve completed the meta-achievement on Mingle, so I don’t have to stress over it any more (until this time next year, maybe).
Mingle’s endeavours with rod in hand have been rewarded with another fishing item, the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat. Besides giving her a certain stereotypical-adventurer-chic, the on-use lure ability is very convenient.
In 25-man raiding news, Auriaya came to a sticky end last night (and I was dead for most of the fight, just like I was for the 10-man kill of her I was party to). We then moved on to wipe all night on Thorim and Hodir – it… really wasn’t pretty.
Also, I’m the guildmember responsible for logging the fights to put WWS and WMO reports on the forums for the guild after raid, but after replacing the logging addon I’d been using when 3.1 broke LoggerHead (which has been updated, finally) I forgot to enable it for Ulduar. Thankfully another raider was able to log the fight (thanks Tame), so my poor performance wasn’t lost to the ages.
Last of all for today, I stumbled across a couple of interesting links that I thought I’d share.
- An enlightening article by Matticus entitled “Frustrated by Ulduar? Here’s Why.” (And I’m certainly frustrated with it lately)
- And on an entertaining, Noblegarden-related note: Hannelore.
Back to my dailies (and fishing), anyway.
(I’m beginning to wonder if I should rename the blog to “One Of These Fishermen”)
