Another day of sitting around GS, doing nothing. Do want to report of a few “changes” I will be doing. I’ll do that later.
After dinner, I flew to SW to do Tol Barad with WormBait, one of my pets, to level him up to 85.
For the dailies, most of them were like the ones I did before, except two were different. Both of them involved killing a key baddy.
Got him up by one level (he was 82. Got him up to 83).
As I was making my exit, suddenly the Alliance Base Camp came under attack by a small group of Horde who couldn’t wait for the battle to start on the southern island, and rather just do it now.
The Alliance however was ready to kick their asses back from wince they came. The fight was bloody and fierce, but the Alliance came through time and time again.
Soon it got so severe I had to get out of there, and came back through the portal.
Alittle later, I went to Tanaris to get some [Noggenfogger Elixir] from Gadgetzan, then went to Northrend to get more of those [Magic Eater]s from the Dalaran Sewer.
As I fished, Trade was quite active with people wanting other people for raids and shit, and promises of “getting your drake” for helping with an Uldarr raid thing.
This one guy starts asking people for ‘Bot’. My brain starts to think. “Bot, as in Botanica? I need to ask this person. Maybe he might know if I could solo it” and so I did. Instead, it wasn’t what I was thinking.
I apologized, told him (and the entire Trade chat later on) that I was hacked last week and what the hacker did to my account and managed to do Botanica 750 times. Told them my gear score (317 currently), and asked them did the hacker actually use this char to solo Botanica.
Got a few PMs telling me to contact the GMs to get my stuff back. Had to tell them that everything is sorted out there.
Then people start telling me that yes.. I can solo Botanica. I still don’t see it happening, but I’ll take their words for it. Tomorrow, I will head to Outland and try to solo instances I want to (The Slave Pens for one), and work up to Botanica.
Finally I got the 40 fish I wanted and headed home. Once there I met that guy who has depression and felt my pain. Turns out it’s not the same type of depression I have. Still, it’s sad that he goes through this. His depression is loneliness, and he said it only happens at night. It’s due to his friends leaving, which is understandable.
I told him that I was hacked as well. He asked if I ever bought gold before, and I… unfortunately had to say yes. He said that that’s how they get your password (which I don’t see how. Powerleveling, yes. But I never heard from gold buying). Told him it’s been a year since I last did it, and he said it doesn’t matter. But he didn’t answer my question of.. if that’s true, and the hacker got my password through my gold buying, then why did the person wait so long to do it? It’s like the person knew I was away.
Rest of the night was ho-hum, until some Horde showed up. A pair of 85 Taurens. And they were fucking pissed off for some reason. Remembering what happened last night, I did not flag once.
Started attacking on the road between GS and Northshire, then they went to the Inn and oh wow what a battle that was. Eventually the destructive duo gave up. When it was over, I saw Stormwind City Guards walking around the second floor of the Inn.
And about my luck of being buddies with Crunkdragon (of him maybe sharing some of his wealth to me) are starting to fade away. Today I tried to ask him if I could buy the mats for the vial, and he said the mats alone are 15k. Why is everything so expensive now? Everytime I look in the AH, there’s an item with a price tag of 10,000g or higher. Yet… I’m seeing more and more people with that fucking Sandscale Drake mount, tormenting me. They all say they made the vial. Not one I talked to actually spent the 50k.
So not fair. But I guess they deserve it for putting all the hard work/cash into making that thing.
