Love is in the Air in World of Warcraft right now.

This is an excellent owl model. I’m very glad that I get to spend some of the time flying around looking pretty similar to it. Even if I’ll likely never get the actual fire form unlocked unless I get very lucky in a future expansion.

Maybe excellent isn’t the right word for it. I’m sure that there’s another word for this owl that is similar to excellent, but maybe starts with an s.

While I ponder that, it’s time for — The Queue!

Dragonriding has been one of the best new features of World of Warcraft Dragonflight.

That’s probably the biggest reason why I haven’t turned to a life of piracy on the high seas.

Also up there is a lack of a band of buccaneers including a master swordsman and a giant. Do you know how hard it is to find a pair like that? They’re one in a million for sure. Also, have you seen what the upkeep on a three-masted schooner is? I feel like every bit of booty I collected would probably just go back into the ship! Otherwise, it’d probably be crawling with rodents of above-average sizes.

Oh boy, I have had a doozy of a week. I had to be the boss at work and that meant that I sadly could not write my Queue last week, but let’s give a nice big shout-out to Liz Patt who aced it! Luckily I was able to sneak in a raid and we’ve managed to get through Mythic Volcoross!  3/9 Mythic bosses down now, on to the Council!

Volcoross is another of those bosses that I feel like I should be able to skin, but can’t for some reason. If I can skin a Core Hound, why can’t I skin a giant lava snake?! They could’ve made it another source of Obsidian Cobraskin, especially since the Legendary Axe needs a bunch. I still can’t believe that only one creature supplies it and it’s so important for Mail wearers.

While I go and get my daily Elusive Cobra kill in, it’s time for — The Queue!

When we killed Mythic Igira for the first time last night, she fell over in a most undignified position. Honestly, I’m surprised that she was bootable at all! Her feet were the only things sticking out on our side of the fence…

While I go and wash my loot off extra well, it’s time for — The Queue!

Happy New Year everyone!

I hope you all had a fun and safe evening last night and are in for a nice cozy relaxing day today. As always it’s a pleasure to be here writing this for you all and I’m looking forward to all the Queues of the next year!

It’s time for — The Queue!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all!

Unless you’re not celebrating anything today, then I hope you have a great Monday.

By the time you’re reading this hopefully you’re several presents deep and gotten just what you were hoping for — and maybe some things you didn’t know you needed. I also hope that you’ve eaten far too many cookies, drank too much eggnog or eggnog-flavored coffee, and had an otherwise relaxing wonderful morning.

While I pour myself another tasty holiday spirit, it’s time for — The Queue!

A bear in front of a boss? That can only mean one thing, I have my first Mythic kill of the raid! Well ok, it could also mean other things, but that’s what it means this time!

As with most of the recent raid tiers, we still don’t have our Ahead of the Curve, because Mythic Gnarlroot is easier than Heroic Fyrakk — not for lack of trying! We got close-ish on Fyrakk a couple of times, but the Seed mechanics in the final phase aren’t something that we’ve practiced much on Normal because he keeps dying before we have to actually do them. I know, I know, that’s a total champagne problem right there. Still, I’m sure we’ll get him soon! Then we can start working on all the other fun Mythic bosses in the raid! I’m not dreading any of them too much, but Smoldy is probably the limit of our skills.

While I invest in more fire-proof underwear, it’s time for — The Queue!

There are a lot of different minis to play with in Warcraft Rumble. Asking anyone to look at the over 60 different units and asking them to pick just one as their favorite is next to impossible, but that's just what I'm going to do.
