Ruins of Despair Raid Boss

With another pick-up group I went to the Ruins of Despair and ended up fighting a really cool looking raid boss. This guy is going down as one of my favourite looking bosses! (I wonder if this model is used in other places in the game? I'm sure it is, but I don't know where)



We start off fast, hitting the monster with everything we got.


There he is! Pretty cool huh?


Ugg, look at that tongue!


Boom! (Unfortunately this camera angle doesn't show you the off-screen mages, but this explosion is one of their spells)



Yay, we emerge victorious!

Another Alt, Cool Kamael Sword

I will be doing short blogs like this from time to time. Don't worry, there will be regular long picture-filled blogs like usual, I just wanted to have more posts, and I decided that there are sometimes random pictures that don't have anything to do with an adventure and so they would be well suited to a one-picture blog.

Here we have a wonderful picture of a kamael with a really big sword. ^^ This is an NPC, so I'm not sure if you can actually get that sword.

Oh and who is that standing behind the sword? That's my new character CowNoseCat! But don't worry... I only got her to level 5. I just don't like mages, in any game. I always end up trying one though.

A sunset, boobies (cough I mean a nice outfit), and more dwarf city!

Well, this is one of those blogs that doesn't really tell a story or even go to a specific location. It's really just all over the place, so lets just get into it caus I got some great screens!

The tram to the dwarf city. It was hard to get a good shot of it, but this one is adequate.

Looking back on it, that mask makes me look really stupid. But this is a good shot of that dwarf guy outside the entrance to the dwarf city!

Aww, my squirrel loves me.

Damn! O.O I have nothing more to say. XD

Hmm you know, I think this is a sunrise not a sunset. It looks great.

What have I done!?! WHAT HAVE I DONE!!! (WoW)

I don't know how. I don't know why. But I have done it, finally, I have succumbed to the beast. Yes that's right ladies and gentlemen: I am playing World of Warcraft!!

Actually, I do know how. It all started with a dream. I was an undead warlock. And... that's about it. But that dream stuck with me! And it bugged me for weeks and weeks, and I couldn't stand it until I downloaded the trial and I played that undead warlock I so dreamed about.

Little did I know... how fun WoW is! And really, that is why I am playing now and probably will continue to play (remember though, I can't stay in one place long nor am I a one MMO man) for the foreseeable future.

That is the biggest reason why I have now chosen WoW over EQ2: it's simply more fun. I like how my characters move and control, I love the style and the color. I honestly never ever thought I could enjoy WoW and I must admit that I have been very judgmental about the game, without having actually tried it.
There he is, my undead warlock.
Good thing I don't have any nasal functionality left, so I can't smell this guy.Summoning my first minion.
Sadly however, my all time favourite guild the New Outriders plays alliance. And this game is just so much more fun with some reliable and friendly people, so I made a night elf to join them. (I actually have made multiple night elfs, so don't freak out if you see her hair change or something, but in the end I stuck with one)
Not unique to WoW, but still cool, is some great looking armor. Nice tentacle staff buddy! (It wiggles hehe, it's awesome)Here you can see Cownose my human mage. Aint' she somethin? I like her, but anyways, look at this outhouse! Now that is hilarious. I always wondered how these virtual characters did their business, finally we have a reasonable explanation.
Like any good MMO, WoW has castles. Lots of castles. Ok probably not as many as Dark Age of Camelot but yeah they are around.Back in the Night Elf lands, I ran into this ent guy. Looking good! I like that color.I'm not sure if I'm supposed to bathe in here, I think this waters are sacred or something. Oh well.These spiders are coool!
Just to check out their starting area, I made a troll. Needless to say, I like it!
Undead horse mount, good stuff, good stuff.A sexy blood elf doing her thing.
These imps are pretty cool. In the end the warlock class was not my cup of tea, but they have style in what they can summon.
And finally, I just love this picture of the night elf starting area. It really gives you a good impression of what the forest is like and the color.

Captain Beefheart walks the land

Well things have been going well in the Nanaki server on SupremeL2. I have made a number of new characters.

Here is my second character (after CowNoseTheCat) he is called CaptainBeefheart. CaptainBeefheart is the name of my favorite musician. His band was called CaptainBeefheart and His Magic Band! He is a very... underground? Weirdo? I'm not sure how to describe his music, but whatever it is it is awesome. Anyways so I thought about what kind of class would Captain Beefheart be and so I made my character a wizard. He has a beard kind of like Beefheart and is just as stylish. The picture above is my friend Jak and I sitting down for a break, behind us you can see the Ruins of Despair south of Gludio.

Not long after I made the Captain I got my first PvP point. This guy just came out and attacked me! Oh well, his loss hehe! I think I am really liking this server much better then DeviantRealms. The players names are absolutely horrible, and seems like everyone is an idiot, but the pvp is everywhere! This is definitely a PvP server.

After playing Beefheart to level 25 or so and getting some of his Wizard spells I have decided that I think I'm not going to play him. I'll not delete him just so I can keep the name in case I want to use the name again but mages are just not my thing. It's not even a Lineage 2 thing. Every MMO I play I always try out the mage class and I never get into them. Oh well, was worth a try! So you likely will not see CaptainBeefheart again.

PS: If you have not listened to Captain Beefheart go out and listen! And if you don't like it at first (because it is really weird) listen again, and then listen a few more times after that, you will start to see his genius and it really grows on you.
