Finally I finished the long quest chain for the Stonetalon mount. It’s wonderful, quite different from other mounts. Now I am onto the first few quests on the bloodtalon hatchling chain for another mount ;). There are 4 introduced in patch 7.1 !
The intro to Broken Isles was released this week with the Demon Hunter ! I have recorded the intro quest and an invasion. Enjoy :).
After a hiatus of almost a year, I have recorded a new episode of Pet Battles ! It’s a PVP episode with 3 battles inside Zulbob’s garrison.
It’s finally coming in a few days, the Demon Hunter ! Ever since Warcraft III people have been wanting to play this class and now it’s finally there ;). And in about 3 weeks, Legion will be here as well, so we can forget about Garrisons and WOD and move on to hopefully something beter !
Doing the Fishing daily in Gorgrond
Well everything is patched, toolbars have big holes in them, and character models are updated ;). I did run the introductory quests towards warlords and got my new pet. It looks quite cool ! The quest was nothing special. Thrall plays an important part once again, and Vol’jin is now standing in Oggrimar where once Garrosh stood.
The new character models will take some getting used to. The walking animation is not as great as they once were. My undead mage zennadar lost his funny undead step :(. Also the damage output is a little weird now with the squished numbers. But stuff still dies reasonably fast even though I wasn’t quite familiar with my new / revamped spells yet.
And then the server crashed, but I needed to encode a video anyway, so not too bad.
Morph changed quite a bit
For the very first time, Morpheus meets Vol’jin.
The pet battles have been a lot of fun lately. It turns out to be an excellent way to cure the dullness of the intermission between 5.4 and 6.0 (warlords). I now have a group of 25s and am leveling / catching more. Also keep on making the Pet Battles let’s play series on Youtube. Episode 13 is quite fun as I am totally surprised to find a rare quality Scourged Whelpling. It’s an undead pet, which isn’t too common to find, especially not ‘as a blue’ !
Over the past week, I tried a bunch of pet battles addons. These are the ones I keep using. Basically they provide all the info you would ever need, and make the UI a bit better / more informative.

As we wait for Warlords, I am finally doing pet battles. My highest level pet is now lvl 19. It’s quite fun, more that I expected it to be. I am documenting my progress on video, here is the playlist of the videos.
