The Queue: Just a gnome around town

Every now and then you just have to pull on your best tabard, grab your favorite artifact appearance, and go for a stroll. Touch the grass, remind yourself that there are still flowers blooming — and look rad doing it. So of course I took a pre-Queue stroll around Dornogal to get my head in the game before coming in to answer your questions. Let’s Queue.

I’m going to roll a Blood Elf Demon Hunter. Time to sacrifice everything and get ready to defend Silvermoon. (And maybe other places, idk.)

I don’t know if I’ll seriously play it (I have never seriously played a Demon Hunter), but I am excited about the new void spec and am really feeling like I want to play a Blood Elf in Midnight. (But I have not personally been enjoying playing my Paladin, my original Blood Elf.) Remix looks like a faster, funner way to level than straight up questing, so I’m lining up to log in when the servers go live.

I’d like to see what pre-disaster Gnomeregan looked like. There’s Gnomish architecture and culture out there, but no real cities anymore. What was it like when they have their own non-irradiated city that you can live in. I think that would be a neat place to visit. (I just think it’s neat!)

I think I’d like to see a lot of places that aren’t here anymore, or are different. Things from the future, well, we’ll get there eventually.

I am glad you asked, because I attempted make a transmog look based off the Kobold-themed Tabard of the Assembly. It’s blue with orange highlights and a neckerchief! But it also has lots of brown, leather tones with silver, metallic accents, plus a giant candle and cogwheel in the middle of the chest. (I’d say it was a tough match, but then there’s a screenshot of a not-me-gnome on the Wowhead page for the tabard who is absolutely rocking it to the point I’m kind of embarrassed to link it.) But there’s a fun interaction with tabards and chest pieces that have 3d elements, so I used one with a gold and blue accent (it’s TWW era even though it looks like it came from Shadowlands) and tossed on everything else I found in my transmog library in shades of blue. The result is something with at least six different shades of blue that don’t quite match, but somehow I think it works.

However, I’ve been wearing this for a while, and it feels like it’s time for a change. I need to think up something new before raid tonight. Maybe something to suit the holiday season? Hm.

I want WoW to keep having its own vibe. The crossovers in other games are neat, but everything in WoW is distinctly WoW, and I like it that way.

That’s all for now everybody. Take care of yourselves, tell your dog I said hi, and I’ll see you in the comments section.
