Illidan statue for sale
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/20353390/prepare-to-bring-illidan-home
Blizzard has unveiled a 24 inch model of Illidan captured in Polynesian. The model looks amazing. Truly amazing.
The model will go on sale starting November 3rd. There is no price tag at this time,… yet they still urge players to go to the Blizzard Gear Store(once it goes on sale) to pick one up due to supplies being very limited. This is part of their BlizzCon Early Access Sale.
Tell me this isn’t fishy. And I bet it’s going to be every bit $50-100+ once it does go on sale. “Let’s get that lost subscription money back!!”
“Legion” music video

Well, this is..embarrassing to say the least. BlizzCon’s cosplay rock band, ‘Songhammer’, did a song about the expansion (simply titled ‘Legion’).
I wanted the first 30 seconds in, and it was cringeworthy. The actors had “kill me now” faces. And it just felt like an embarrassment to Rock and Roll.
Now if you will excuse me, I’m going to listen to ACDC’s ‘Thunderstruck’ to get this trash out of my head. 😛
SoO soloable

Possibly the best news of the night(and maybe of the entire month of November). Bellular has discovered through another one of Patch 7.1’s undocumented changes, that the Siege of Orgrimmar is now soloable!
I’ve been trying to solo MoP’s raids. It was like 50/50. 50% of the time I didn’t get the mechanics until later on, and 50% of the time I managed to complete with no issues. And with the final raid for MoP now soloable, I can do them all.
Though there is a boss that a few players feel either it’s just not possible to solo or it takes way too much time to be worth it. And that’s this ‘Immerseus’ boss. Something about he has this one stage that a bunch of damage and healing slimes show up. And you got to get them down ASAP.
The reason that made this dungeon unsoloable, is a boss named ‘Galakras’. Apparently now you can take out his dragon allies without needing two or more players to complete the encounter.
I will try to solo SoO on the day before BlizzCon (the 3rd). This day is also when I buy a ticket. And probably by then, the ‘bells and whistles’ for paying them $40 to watch a two-day stream will likely come out.
.
And that’s all the news I have for you tonight! Thanks for reading and keep sending me your emails. The next time I do WoW news will likely be covering BlizzCon’s WoW sections.
But there is one last thing I have to discuss. I feel BlizzCon is going to be my ‘stay or go’ moment for WoW. What I saw from today’s stream of Az, he had this “I just don’t care what Blizzard does anymore” attitude; even said “if that makes you happy then good” of someone telling him that he got a Legendary.
He has that attitude that I had with WoD. But instead of being weary of trying new games, he wants to focus on moving forward.
I envy him, and I wish I could have that attitude. But something keeps me sticking with WoW. I guess Blizzard hasn’t made me mad enough to warrant me to “fuck this, I’m done”. But it’s not like that ‘I enjoy the abuse’.
