Ding...Again!

Wow, a level in less than a day, not bad :P I also got the achievement To Hellfire And Back shortly before I ding'd. So all in all, a good day. Next goal: lvl 66 in Nagrand!

Ding!

Woohoo! Finally got to level 64, I think I might pop over to Nagrand after I've finished all of the Hellfire Peninsula quests. Or maybe Shadowmoon Valley? Hmm, I'm not sure what level that's for. Oh well, anyway I'm getting closer and closer to Northrend :P /cool

Damn! Foiled Again!

I wish I'd known then what I do now. That you can't change the URL of your blog, even if you change the actual name. Hm, a dilemma if there ever was one. My old blog name (Sevei's Hunter Cafe) was too limited in scope to fit my rambling post style.

So, I was flicking through the official WoW wallpapers when I found a picture (which I'm now using for my Blog Header) that kicked my few remaining brains cells into motion. It was perfect! So general, so vague, that even I would struggle to go off-topic!

And thus I named my blog: For The Alliance!

EDIT: After posting this, I discovered that you CAN change your blog URL, therefore making this post null and void. I ain't gonna remove it though, maybe the more posts I have, the more people will visit my blog.../cackle insanely.

Man, I'm Depressed...

As you may (or not) have heard, Phaelia is closing the doors of Resto4Life. Mr. ChainTrap has also decided to stop blogging. 'Why?' is the the question you may be asking. Well, I'll tell ya. Children. Both of these esteemed bloggers are expecting their first bundles of joy soon and as such have decided to quit the WoW Blogosphere in order to devote more times to their family.

I say: Congratulations! Even though these departures illicited an extremely depressing post from Pike...I still belive celebrations are in order.

Why I Think DK's Are Annoying

"Surely not! DK's annoying? Absurd!"

Well no, it's not Absurd at all. Almost all DK's, except mine and a few others, are arrogant to the point of being obnoxious and think they know better than everyone else.

"Well surely they have earned the privilage of being insufferable pricks by levelling a character all the way to level 55?"

So, by that logic, I should be an annoying know-it-all who thinks that I am invincible as well?

"Uhhh...maybe they are annoying because that's the way they are with all their toons?"

Nope. I know loads of players, who when playing their Hunters, pallys, shammies ect ect, are all as nice as you could hope for but immediately go to the Dark Side as soon as they logon with their DK.

"..."

No more arguments, huh? Hah, you know who rules here then, don't ya?

"Uh, you do realize that your arguing with yourself, right?"

What can I say? I'm bored. I'm waiting impatiently for the PTR to come on.

"Dude, you are crazy..."

Tell me something I don't know.

Drinks At The Grim Guzzler

Hey everyone, sorry 'bout not updating my blog for so long. I'm not gonna tell you RL was being a bitch and that I was too busy. No, I'm not gonna insult your vast intelligence, my dear readers. The real reason I have not written in a donkey's age is merely because of two small things.

1) I've not done anything remotely interesting in WoW recently, well, unless you count obsessively doing the Ramparts untill I had the awesome looking polearm, legs and gloves.

2) I was overcome by a bout of laziness so potent, so horrible I could barely bring myself to play WoW! I know, I know! Shock, horror and frozen hotdogs, Batman!

But now that I have overcome these problems, you can expect much more bitch- I mean posting from yours truly.

So, sit back, grab a beer and stick on some soothing Def Leppard :P

BM Kicks SV Ass

Yes, yes it does. At least at my level it does. Though I suppose SV doesn't get it's best damaging attack 'til lvl 60, while BM kicks ass immediately, what with IAotH and Focused Fire and they would only require lvl 19 to get those awesome talents!

Although, saying that, SV gets some pretty nifty talents too. Like, Improved Tracking and Survival Instincts.

It might be that I'm wrong, as I haven't done proper testing with the two different spec's but I just feel that BM owns things faster. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. Ciao!

Razorfen Downs: EPIC FAIL


So there I was, watching happily as my trusty Ravager, Farahlon, was munching on undead skull, when I get a whisper from a guildie.
Akorin: "Hey Sevei, you still wanna go do RFD for that quest?"
I look at my minimap, and seeing not one red blip, I reply, "Yeah sure thing!"
Fast foward half an hour and Me, Akorin and three other guys are FINALLY inside the instance. I look round and grin and I do a Cartman-style "Sweeet." I love going to instances that I've never been to before and I'd been meaning to come here for a while.
Things went well at first except, because of the 4 or 5 lvl difference between our tank and Akorin, who is a Mage, it meant that the tank had not a snowballs chance in hell of holding aggro. But that was cool, I was there to trap and generally annoy any mob that got close to the poor little, squishie.

But everything changed when we got to a chamber a little further in. I don't know how but we, and by we I mean the idiot dr00d, managed to pull every single mob in the room and beyond. There was like 14-15 mobs suddenly bearing down on the druid and being the kind-hearted Hunter that I am, I pulled one, trapped one and got my pet to tank another, to prevent him being totally pwn'd (although he totally deserved it).

Now, I know that it's a well known fact that Hunters love our Tanks, I mean they stop us getting ass-raped in a single hit but our Tank was just awesome. He ran in, pulling as many mobs to him as he could and held them by their faces and slapped them about a bit. Also, because the druid, who was supposed to be healing the tank, decided that he'd much rather be a kitty, left Akorin and I to cast GotN (Gift of the Naaru) on the tank to keep him alive.

How ridiculous is that? I mean c'mon! Yet despite the spectacular failure of the pull, I was grinning the whole time! I loved it, this was how it should be! Chaos and desperation, mixed with exhilaration when we actually killed all the mobs with only one casualty (bet you can't guess who ^^). If only we had went further in, who knows how awesome the battles mighta been?

But alas, that was not to be, for the druid, throwing a huff because he hadn't watched his HP and was the only one who died, like he was annoyed we hadn't wiped or something /bitch slap druid, he left the group. I was all for continuing, I mean I wasn't like he had done that much healing after all. But then, with no warning the other Mage did a Houdini on us and suddenly it was only our Tank, Akorin and I.
I had to admit defeat then, even though it pisses me off, that one person can ruin an entire hour of work.
So to sum up my rambling post: Say NO to Feral Kitty Druids!

Hi Everybody!



Hi, my name is Sevei and, as the title says, this is my cafe. I know what your thinking: what a dump, right? Well yeah but that's how I roll. Anyhoo, I don't really know why I decided to suddenly start a World Of Warcraft blog, apart from the fact that so many bloggers such as BRK, Lienna and Pike, have all helped to make me a better hunter.

You should have seen what I was like when I first rolled a Nelf Hunter, /shudder. Anyhoo, steering away from those incredibly traumatic memories of total FAILage, I just want to say; sit your asses the hell down and listen to me, godammit!

Good, now that the unpleasantries are out of the way, I guess I actually need to think of something to talk about...no wait! Rein it in Sevei, this is just an introductory post... /struggle inwardly. I think I'll just detail what you can expect from this blog.

Firstoffly, I'll TRY, note the emphasis on the word try people, to post at least four-to-five times a week. This may not seem like a lot...and it isn't, I'm just really lazy ^^.

Nexticus, I know absolutely NOTHING about running a blog, so i haven't the foggiest how to make it look cool and interesting like BRK's or Pike's, for example I don't how to use HTML to link to sites or how too add pictures or videos. I would really appreciate any help that any readers, or fellow bloggers may have for me. EDIT: Nevermind, lol, I've worked out out how to do all of things I mentioned above. Still, any other hints and tips or downright cheats are very welcome :)!

And last but not least, the subject matter. I will, from past experience, be talking out of my rectum (it's a surprisingly difficult skill to master) most of the time, as well, lets face the facts. I'm freakin' lvl 3...6, I think, yeah I'm pretty sure I leveled up...anyway, if you think I have something wrong, or hell even if you just like to argue for the sake of it, feel free to send me a BRK-style BIG FROSTY GLASS OF SHUT UP JUICE! (Sevei apologises humbly to BRKWWA for his blantant copy-right infringment, and yet cannot find the energy to promise he won't do it again. Which he will. Very soon...)

While, admittedly, I'm nowhere near the level of expertise and overall awesomeness of any of the above Hunter Gods, hopefully I'll at least be able to entertain a handful of people with my rambling, unstructured posts.

And yeah, I know that the pic I've put up has nothing at all to do with this post, I just just thought 'what the hell!' and stuck it in there anyways.
