Burn the land and boil the sea...

...you can't take the sky from me*:



Got the epic flyer today. Broke? Yes. Happy? Yes. Special shout-out here to my guildies because many of you helped me in the final stretch by doing the dailies with me, farming primals with me, sending me your spare Void Crystals to sell, etc. Luff you all and THUNDERCATS HO!**

I'm thinking of doing some gem-rearranging on Tawyn now that the Choco-Bow has pushed her well over the hit-cap, but other than that I don't have any major plans for her in the near future other than trying to regain some lost cash, and possibly squeeze into some raids or heroics if I can fit 'em into my ever-so-variable work schedule. Mostly I'd like to focus on some alts for a bit.

And flying around in circles.

Very fast circles.

*Guess who still farms those fireflies in Zangarmarsh for a certain mini-pet?

** Official Entelechy Battlecry and the last thing many a Karazhan boss hears before they die.

Grats! I want that firefly pet so very much, I *almost* bought it for 400g once. At least Blizzard has excellent taste in tv shows.

I've now got the theme music running through my head, which is great for the last hour of work. Since there's only football on the TV tonight, and no raids scheduled, I know what I'm going to put on ...

Only seen it drop once, never again :'(

I've been doing the alt thing myself, getting them to 30 and 50, so I can forsee spending even less time on my main than I do now :P

Know the Insert/delete trick, try pressing either while flying.

Pike said...

@ Justin - yup, love that one.

Rayare said...

Me love you Pike. Your mount is shiny.

grats on the epicness! no plans to go for the netherdrake? i bet the netherwing mines would be fairly empty with everyone off helping the shattered sun!

Pike said...

@ lunch - I rather like my gryphon, although I do think the Hippogryph is in my future, since I'm already exalted with Cenarion and I've always liked the look of the Hippogryphs.

Congratulations on your new mount! Think of a name for him/her/it yet?

And prepare for having the money roll in with your epic flyer. Seriously. The amount of money I save by flying everywhere instead of taking flight points adds up over time. The amount of nodes I see while doing said flying adds up over time. And you've now got access to the Netherwing quests for added gold!

Niiiiiice! I've been seeing them around since I got to Outland and I am jealous. xD I congratulate you!

Gratz on the epic flyer. I was very happy when I flew my copter around. If you want to really go after that Firefly maybe you should ask TJ how she put up with staying only in Zang for so long to get one on a bet with BRK.

I swear I posted this last night, but oh well.

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me.


Grats on the mount!

Grats on your mount!!!

I saw the title of your post and I thought, 'hey, that sounds really familiar...'

I need to watch some Firefly this weekend! ^_^

Gratz on the epic.

Love the color you chose too!

The gang in the stable: Kalee, Malcolm, and River send their love too.

Congrats Pike!

And...ahem...Firefly forever!

7,871 confirmed kills
2,000+ unconfirmed kills


it seems random means "lets not give Maevet her firefly"

Pike said...

@ Cynra - I'm still thinking of a name. It's probably going to be something short, simple, and cute, as with all my other mounts, because for some reason I like my mount names like that. (Example: My Golden Gryphon is "Feathers".)

I do have a name all picked out for my future Hippogryph, though.

I feel a "mount" post brewing...
