There&#8217;s still quite a few things that MoP added besides the continent. But some of them I just don&#8217;t wish to do.<br \/>\nOne is gearing up. Mr.Robot hasn&#8217;t really been helpful in showing me what to get. Basically, it seems either I have to do a Heroic dungeon I can&#8217;t do yet due to my item level, or it doesn&#8217;t show where to get the item.<\/p>\n<p>But what it has, I managed to get a few pieces. Two in particular, would make the fashion police arrest me, for being a violator. The chestpiece looks like someone threw up on it, and the pants without the chestpiece, I can see my butt crack. Ugh. What was Blizzard <strong>thinking<\/strong> when they made these pieces?! This just makes me not even bother gearing up. I want gear that is not only functional, it looks good as well.<\/p>\n<p>So, Archaeology. Still boring as watching paint dry. Except they added a few twists. Every now and then, a Level 90 Sha (non-elite) called an &#8216;Ancient Haunt&#8217; pops up and you have to kill it to get the fragment. The other twist, you may sometimes get your hands on a Pristine fragment, that has a quest attached to it. All you do is fly to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, and on the upper level of Mogu&#8217;shan Palace is the Seat of Knowledge. Is it here where you turn in your pristine artifacts and put them on display.<br \/>\nOne last twist, is sometimes you&#8217;ll get a Daily, to turn in either 20 Pandarian or Mogu fragments. And they&#8217;ll happily compensate you for doing so.<\/p>\n<p>This is also where Lorewalker Cho can tell you stories of Pandaria, if you search for them. I&#8217;ve found several during my leveling, but only one since doing his quest. And I never got his story. So I dunno what&#8217;s up with that.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t messed with the Pet Battle system yet. Don&#8217;t think I will. And as for the Order of the Cloud Serpent, it&#8217;s starting to seem more like Netherwing rep than Venomhide Raptor teeth. For two days, I haven&#8217;t done any quests for my hatchling; only for them. Day 2, when I finished my dailies, they said &#8220;you&#8217;ve done all you can for your hatchling&#8221;. I didn&#8217;t do <strong>anything<\/strong> for him! All I&#8217;ve been doing is dailies of helping the Serpent Masters do their job of helping the wild Cloud Serpents, kill the Saurok; the lizard guys.<br \/>\nWowhead says that once you hit Revered, you&#8217;ll start doing more with your hatchling. So I guess that&#8217;s ok.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\n.<br \/>\n.<br \/>\n.<br \/>\nAnd the last thing. Which is making me kinda sick and worried at the same time. I asked in the WoW Forum of why I&#8217;m lagging so bad when I turn. They say it&#8217;s possible my C drive is dying on me. And it could be, since that drive is one of the two things I haven&#8217;t replaced of my 2005 computer.<\/p>\n<p>I did some asking around, and someone lead me to a site which you can download this tool called &#8216;Seagate SeaTools&#8217;, which can do diagnostics on any drive, any manufacture, to determine if one&#8217;s drive is really dying or not.<\/p>\n<p>So I ran the Windows version on my C drive, and shockingly, <strong>it passed every single one<\/strong> of its tests. I&#8217;m very, <strong>very<\/strong> happy at this, as it will buy me time. I&#8217;m planning to someday get a one Terrabyte hard drive as a new C drive.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m also planning to get a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. You see, the version I got currently is&#8230; non-legit. And I know eventually, Microsoft is going to crack down on people like me. This is why I&#8217;m going to play it safe, and pay the $200.<\/p>\n<p>That and, I&#8217;m unsure if installing my non-legit copy of 7 (even though my computer is calling it &#8220;genuine&#8221;) on the new hard drive, will work again. It&#8217;s not that my computer will &#8220;blow up&#8221; over it, it&#8217;s just, Windows may refuse to boot period if it, or an update I&#8217;m not paying attention to, detects a non-legit copy.<\/p>\n<p> And without Windows, you can&#8217;t really access your computer. I&#8217;m of course, pissed off I even have to pay for a copy. $200 is a LOT of fucking money here, for a piece of software! And it&#8217;s not even Windows itself that costs; it&#8217;s the License Key. That is what costs. $200 for a bunch of numbers on a piece of paper.<br \/>\nCorporate Greed in the first degree.<\/p>\n<p>But, I really have no choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I&#8217;m now Level 90, I&#8217;ve been trying to think of what to do.
