Stirring the Pot

Before we begin, let’s just go ahead and get this out of the way:

No.

As LoO continues to plow through the list of heroics and work on our pvp gear, things are going well and I’m tremendously proud of our achievements. To date, we have beaten every heroic that has been scheduled in the last couple of months. It hasn’t been easy, but hey, we’re LoO. When we see a walkthrough that tells us to avoid certain bosses, we ignore it and charge ahead into glory.

It was then we realized Iraas looked kind of comfy down there… with a big black ball on top of his face. As you can see from the sparkles, Iraas is still tingling with excitement from the encounter…

…but not in a healthy way. We quickly went to work correcting this behavior.

Still, we were so excited about our accomplishment that we set out to tell everyone who logged in thereafter.

Unfortunately, Matelda took offense to our maligning of the balls. Seeing his opportunity to escape emasculation, Iraas used this distraction to distance himself from any teabagging or ball conversation thereafter.

I’m still not buying it.

In other news, AW also finished her epic flight form with a flawless victory! This, of course, happened a couple of months ago but I’m a slacker so you’re only seeing screenshots now. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to capture a great deal of screenshots of the fight because it’s an incredibly complicated procedure.

Here’s how it’s done, LoO-style.

There’s this thingy:

Put the orb in the thingy:

Get ‘em.

Congratulations, AW!

We’re going to continue this path of heroics, farming badges, and working on becoming the leanest and meanest versions of ourselves that we can possibly be. This means gear upgrades, tighter strategies, phatter lewts, more nerdery – that is, unless Arcadi has anything to say about it.

On the PvP front, things are still going strong with arena groups popping up. It’s just one more frontier we are fearlessly advancing into!

Well, most of us are fearless… I know. I keep using that word.

We’re also still hanging out in the battlegrounds.

By now we’ve learned the ropes. After serving hard time at AV choke, the Alliance has changed to a new strategy and Vindication Battlegroup is, once again, a great big fail fest.

Knowing it will take the Horde another year to figure out how to win AV again, we have been spending our time taking advantage of the rocket scientists we’re forced to fight alongside. I know this isn’t fair to say because not everyone who spends their time in a bg is a frothing-at-the-mouth imbecile. Many skilled players exist to help us by informing us of not just the right strategies, but the positive attitude it takes to win.

Then there’s Arachne.

Not even promises of making the front page can stop the caustic wit that is Arachne! Amongst the dim bulbs of the light box he shines brightest, like a beacon in the night!

Hey, everyone has to cope with this clusterf*ck somehow. Some of us use it as a means to pick on the idiots, others try to come up with a strategy that keeps our dignity in tact.

And in case you’re wondering, the dignity thing isn’t working.

And when that doesn’t work, blame it on other LoOnies.

Whatever you do, don’t let the jerks get you down.

And now, for your moment of Zug:
