The Queue

Pay no attention to that byline, yer old pal and fav’rite dwarf hunter of bygone days Chrth (alongside as always me trusty boar Baldrick) is here ta answer your questions today. Hopefully I got some good ones to answer because otherwise this will be less a Q&A and more a Q&B — quick and boring!

So I run a few D&D games for the folks here at Blizzard Watch — and maybe I could run one for y’all someday, who knows, I’m eyeing a Pathfinder 2e campaign lately — and recently, while blatantly stealing Blackwing Lair and making it the end dungeon of the current campaign storyline, I came up with a new mechanic for the Razorgore fight.

Well, technically, it’s not the Razorgore fight because I’m not that basic, but it is a fight involving Dragon Eggs in an ancient fortress of dragonkind, so anyway, close enough for what I’m about. But the mechanic I came up with as a lair action is so much fun, I’m really looking forward to seeing how the players respond to it.

Anyway, howdy. Lets queue this.

Well, after it seemed like it would be a match of dark vs. milk chocolate, with white chocolate mostly an afterthought, it turns out that white chocolate won the Splatfest. And not just, like, a normal win — they swept every. single. category.

So, well played to Team White Chocolate. Shiver, we’ll win the next one.

Until that time, let’s have a Queue, shall we?

I’m not all that into all that lovey-dovey malarkey but I can never pass up a chance for a great earworm no matter the day of the year.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions, and I can’t care ’bout anything but youuuu~

I have been swamped at my day job for a while, so I could use a spa day.

I just hope this masseuse knows what they’re doing. I have so many knots for them to work out!

While I come up with more massage-related tree puns, it’s time for — The Queue.

My very first day in Dragonflight I found an item in the Waking Shores that, when clicked spawned butterflies around me. The butterflies kept spawning around me, in multiple colors, fluttering around, for a half hour. I’ve never found the item again — it isn’t where I originally saw it. It was one of those small, delightful surprises that seems to permeate the Dragon Isles.

Dragonflight feels like a whole new game.

Let’s talk about it.

I don’t do jubilant. Even when I am exceedingly, ecstatically happy, I don’t show it. At best I cackle, like any good New Englander should. But even that feels overindulgent. Nevertheless, I hope that there are questions in today’s Queue that I can answer because then I feel useful for one brief moment.

Hello and happy Wednesday! Like my coworker, Anna, I always love it when I get questions. Which is why today, I’m expressing that love with each question, also like my coworker, Anna.

With that in mind, let’s dive right in!

Here at The Queue, you ask us questions and we always want to make sure we take all the time and care they deserve to answer.

Every time I think I’ve found the last of these Explorers League flags on top of mountains another one will randomly pop up. I haven’t checked any sort of list to see how many there are, it just feels like surely I’ve climbed enough mountains by now. Or, more accurately, spent minutes circling around the peak trying to get my dragon to land on a three-pixel landing spot.

I do appreciate the little nod to the Assassins Creed series with the little camera move around your character to take in the vista though. I think it would’ve been cooler if there had been an animation to do the “perched like a gargoyle” pose though.

While I hope there’s a bushel of hay to break my fall, it’s time for — The Queue.
