Random Teleportation III
I knew where I was before I managed to turn the camera so I could actually see past a huge stone pillar. Dire Maul has a unique jade green light and is one of the instances I remember doing with my very first guild. Getting through this place could take the better part of an evening. This is where we actually had a designated “tank” for the first time. Game balance was till so-and-so and dual specs did not exist so everyone was, more or less, specced and geared for solo play. My career as shaman healer started here as I started collecting gear (mostly leather and cloth items) that augmented my healing and started staying out of combat so I could help out my poor guildmates.
Random Teleportation II
Today I was sent to The Blasted Lands. This area has always been a bit out-of-the way. I don’t remember questing in it at all. It is, however, an important site for Warcraft history being the location of The Dark Portal.
It still is a desolate place but has changed a lot since I first set foot there. The teleportation relic deposited me on top of one of the many plateaus that was, until flying in Azeroth became possible, completely unreachable. I used to wonder what I might find on top of those and today I get my answer: three skeletons sitting around some menacing looking device. As usual the answer just brings more questions. Who were they, what were they doing and why?
Random Teleportation I
I’ve started up WoW again and one of the things that has been amusing me for several weeks now is the Last Relic of Argus, an item found by performing the Archaeology profession in Outland, which will teleport you to a random place in the world. Or, as the item states: “exactly where you want to go… if you aren’t too picky”
Today I was taken into the Golakka Hot Springs in Un’Goro Crater.
Un’Goro was always one of my least favorite zones. It’s filled with surprisingly stealthy mega dinosaurs and the quests there required a lot of running around. In later patches the place has been fixed up a bit… but there’s still a lot of dinosaurs.
