It’s rare these days that I find quests I’ve never done before. Usually it takes a new patch, or the launch of a new expansion. But I realized a week or two ago that I’d never actually completed the legendary quest chain for Tarecgosa, so I decided to see what that one was like. I mean, I liked the Rogue legendary quest a lot — would this one hold the same appeal?

Well so far I’ve collected a lot of small bits and been thoroughly berated by the aforementioned Tarecgosa, who took our first meeting as an opportunity to call me an idiot.

I like her. So the answer is, yes, for now. We’ll see as the quests continue — can’t really barrel through them all at once when they’re reliant on raid resets and all.

No yolk you guys, I may have cracked and mislaid my original Queue header for today. But while I was scrambling and thinking over easy ways to whisk up a new one, I remembered that eggstraordinary NPC in Krokuun who will happily replay any Argus cinematic, and I hatched a plan to exeggcute what is probably one of the best screenshots I’ve taken to date. I’m so glad I didn’t chicken out and scratch this idea.

Omelette you absorb this, but before you start showering me with what I’m sure will be several dozen eggcellent accolades, let me answer your questions, okay?

While doing the umpteenth run through of Suramar’s quest chain, I happened to look up at the right moment and notice…this painting. It’s a turtle, but it’s a glowing turtle. And sure, those candles could be just for more reading light, but they almost look like a shrine to the glowing turtle. What’s the turtle for? Why’s it glowing? Most importantly, why is this not a Battle Pet already? Inquiring minds want to know, Blizzard.

You guys also have some inquiring minds, so let’s just answer your questions while we’re here, sans turtle-confusion.

Not only did I finally get a Monk to 110 over the weekend, I managed to complete the Monk class mount quests while I was at it. I’m pretty sure this has been my favorite class mount chain so far — I really enjoyed returning to Pandaria for a little while. And Ban-Lu is basically the best mount I could ask for. He says hello every time I summon him! He doesn’t have wings, he just…floats!

He’s an excellent kitty. I like him a lot. But let’s get to your questions!

The Rogue Class Hall in the Underbelly is a safe haven for Rogues actively avoiding being turkeyfied…unless their fellow Rogues happen to be toting a turkey-shooter. Fun story though — the whole Class Hall is full of Rogues, yet you can’t actually shoot any NPCs. I mean…a Rogue is a Rogue, right Blizzard?

Come on. Griftah’s been asking for it all expansion. Lemme make him gobble gobble.

Oops I made a pretty. Look, it was a relaxing way to spend an evening, okay? Some people say they should take Photoshop away from me. I say they can pry it out of my cold, dead, frozen hands.

…let’s just forget the puns and move on to your questions, shall we?

You guys. I think I figured out how to make Uldum ridiculously entertaining again. It’s full of cut scenes just waiting to be crashed by a horse’s rear end. I’m just saying.

Oh right we have questions, let’s get to those!

This is my favorite mana ray because it looks a bit like a flattened orca that has inexplicably learned how to take flight. But this not-a-flying-orca is here with an announcement — we’ve picked our winners for the BlizzCon 2017 Virtual Ticket giveaway! Congratulations to Silisil, Eade Safel, James Stanek, and Beardman on the Virtual Ticket and all associated virtual goodies.

Now let’s get to your questions, shall we?

Uh excuse me, miss? Miss? You know, it’s been years since I’ve done any work in a library so I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure the staff wouldn’t be too keen on just summoning animals indoors willy-nilly. I mean, I know the city’s all magical and otherworldly, but someone is going to have to clean up after that thing, and I don’t think Khadgar’s interested.

Look I’ve been a fan of Griftah since Burning Crusade. I can safely say that not once have I ever been carried away by a Tikbalang. But his general appeal has grown even greater in Legion, largely because he hands me 5,000 gold a week for some silly Coins of Air. I don’t even need those things. You know what I do need? Gold. Lots of gold. It…it’s like he knows me, man.

Speaking of knowing things, let’s get to answering your questions.
