Orcs love Plucker

Just a quick post for today – The Orcs of both Orgrimmar and Mag’har love Plucker. Last night, in a fevered burst of farming, Plucker collected the last 30 Orge Warbeads she needed to appease the Mag’har. Having near-completed genocide, the Orcs were more than willing to open their coffers and allow Plucker the honour of buying their tabard and a Cobolt War Talbuk. Pictures to follow.

Now to get Engineering and Cooking to 375 *sigh*.

WoW News

Apologies for not posting last week – work has been full on (and will continue to be so until after this weekend). Time for a MMO progress report.

Plucker finally got off her arse and levelled up First Aid. Something screwy must be happening with Auctioneer and the Auction House for Aman’Thul, because its reporting that a stack of Heavy Netherweave Bandages should go for around 1000g. Which can’t be right? Plucker is about 8k away from dinging Exalted with Mag’har. Last week I discovered that the Mag’har love Ogre Warbeads (even more than the Consortium!). In many 30mins I can do a lap of  Warmaul Hill and get about 20 Warbeads plus a stack of kill reputation, so I expect maybe a week and Plucker will have that 8k. She’s also been working on knocking off some of her non-group quests for cash – which has resulted in gaining more and more Instance quests. I got into a great PuG last weekend to do a set of group quests that resulted in Plucker being crowned Queen of the Ogres (for about 5 seconds, when someone else turned in the quest). I took a screenshot, which I’ll upload at some stage.

Tanarel has had to halt her race to 58. I want to keep her in step with two friends that I’ve been levelling with. They’re 53/54 at the moment, so I’ll let Tan get some rest and maybe try to shop my way to 300 Leatherworking.

I went back to Huchin on the weekend. Poor Shaman hadn’t been getting any love of late – swinging a 2-handed Mace is so SLOW! I’m going to persevere until 40, when he gets access to Dual Wield, then reevaluate how things are moving, and what to do after that.

Dingage!

Plucker plans to hit 70 this weekend. With 60k to go, its certainly doable. Once I get there though, I dont really have any plans for her. I plan to atleast do the following:

• Get a Flying Mount (1000g already saved up) (Updated)
  
• Get Mining / Engineering to 375 (that should take a little while)
• Get a Flying Machine (getting the mats should take up some time and/or money)
• Go to any zones I havent been to yet (like Netherstorm) (Updated)

What reputations should I work on first? What instances can you PUG?

Seeing Red

Once upon a time in a realm called Aman’Thul there lived a Marksman Spec’d Hunter called Plucker. Plucker was a happy little Blood-Elf, who would wander the forests of Azeroth spamming attack skills at every living creature (and some some who were not dead) that she came across. However Plucker the Hunter was frustrated. She would often find herself surrounded by angry creatures who wanted to hurt her. When this occurred she would shout out to her pet turtle “Help, Knucklehead! This is your job – keep the angries from me!” But Knucklehead would shrug and go back to slowing eating fruit.

Then, one day Plucker read about the exploits of BigRedKitty. Plucker immediately moved Knucklehead to the nearest stable and got herself a new pet – Illheart the Owl and learned the Way of the Beast Master. She learned not to spam attacks, but to hand out death with a methodical, steady approach that kept focus on Illheart and not on her soft fleshy insides. And until this very day, Plucker has continued to follow the Way of the Beast Master (though having rotated through a Ravager and now a Raptor), and joyfully encourages her Pets to “Go Red!” and maim and kill.

And all is well.
