I haven’t quite finished the Nightfallen quest chain, but I think I’m nearing its end — and I’m a little sad about that. Suramar is hands-down my favorite zone I’ve ever played through in this game. Just on the merits of that one zone alone, I think Legion is poised to nudge Mists of Pandaria out of the number one spot on my favorite expansions list. We’ve still got a lot of expansion left to play, but I can already tell I’m going to really, really miss this place when we’re gone.

I had a weird experience the other day. After zoning in to the Northrend location of Dalaran for some good old fashioned transmog farming, I discovered Tirion’s statue had gone missing. In its place was the original Dalaran fountain. Supposedly the fountain should have been replaced on the server first kill of the Lich King. But for some reason, this one stayed put — although it has the plaque to start the cinematic for the Lich King’s death. I’m not sure why there’s a discrepancy here, but it was pretty nice to see the old fountain back in action again.

Sometimes you just thing a moment is pretty.

This is the Queue. I’m listening to Mayhem by Halestorm. Let’s do this.

We warned you last week, but you just had to ask about Wrathion.

So hopefully you enjoy epic rants about fictional characters, because that’s what’s about to happen.

I don’t know if Blizzard is planning to add another class to WoW, and frankly I kind of hope they aren’t. But if they do, it really needs to be a class that wears mail. With the Legion changes, we no longer have classes that start off in one armor type (mail for Paladins and Warriors, leather for Hunters and Shaman) and we now have three cloth classes, three plate classes, four leather classes and only two mail classes. And this bothers me for no adequately understood reason!

Seriously I have no idea why this is a problem for me but it is.

I think it’s about that time where I point out once again that I’d really love to see full-blown art prints of all the lovely painting scattered around Azeroth. This collection from Suramar is just beautiful. I mean, it’s not my absolute favorite — that title belongs to the strange painting of whale meat — but I’d gladly hang any of them in my office.

The first thing I do when I run into an item that can only be used in water is to test said item in Dalaran’s fountain. Why? Because I can. It turns out the Love Boat from the Love is in the Air event can be used in the fountain — although it despawns almost immediately after it’s been summoned. So the answer of whether or not it will fountain is a solid sort of. I have many more solid answers for you in the column below.

I’ve known about this weapon for literally years, and I even knew where to get it, and I just plain never bothered despite having rolled several Gnome warriors back before it existed. And it’s very easy to get, too. Takes like five minutes. I love it most of all because it’s the exact same size as the Argent Avenger, a model I already had, but it’s a two-hander instead of a one hander so I can use it with Titan’s Grip Fury. Seriously, go roll a Gnome Warrior, play it for a few minutes, boom, you’ve got this in your transmog collection.
