Switching Profilers

Tired of how long it takes thottbot to update my character information (do they need monkeys to push a button on Monday morning or something?) I'm trying allakhazam which was suggested by one of Zinoviev's friends. It looks like it even has more features. So far, so good, immediate upload!

Colors of clothing

Melekuhn hit level 22, so she was able to put a new robe on. It's purple, which goes "well" with her green cape. Oy... It didn't look purple in the bag...

And Onicokuhn has a new cape, but it's baby blue... Who would put baby blue on a reddish brown cow beast? It's just wrong. Someone's gotta have a conversation with those developers, you can't wear that stuff in the office without ridicule anymore.

Undead and a Bad Hair day too

She caught me against a tree, and the view was classic, I had to take a picture

Wand for Ixazakuhn

Unless you're an enchanter, it's difficult to come across a wand! I ended up taking Ixazakuhn to Ogrimar to see if there was something I could afford in the Auction house. I was able to find a wand for a somewhat reasonable price, but for a level 12 (the ones for level 9 were more expensive or didn't have a buy out). So I guess I'll spend some time with her so she can equip that weapon.

Unfortunately, the system seemed to be down, it was stuck "Authenticating" me. :( But I just got in. Hurray!

Zinoviev saves the day

Minnikuhn was far out matched by the slim, oozes and such in the dungeon. Luckily, Zinoviev came in and helped. We got the dagger on the second kill of the beast. Hip-hip-hurray!

MinNiKuhn needs a good dagger

Unfortunately, my gnome rogue uses two swords for fighting. I have a crummy little dagger in my bags that I use when I need to backstab, but that's not very efficient. A good dagger that I could always have equipped would make her much more effective.

A friend at work got this http://www.thottbot.com/?i=9007 and I am going to take my little rogue (29) in by herself and see if I can get it. No harm in trying, stealth, poison, healing potion, bandages, Thistle Tea and a couple of other potions from the druid like agility and defense! Should be worth it. I can try to finish one or two other quests at the same time, like syphoning off the radiation from the troggs.

Stat Sites

I knew that thottbot could gather stats on characters, but I just discovered how after this latest Cosmos UI patch. It's simply a setting, so I added it to each of my characters. I hear it takes a few days to go into effect, so if the links are broken, it's just temporary.

It'll be interesting to see what all it collects.

One of her rare "Look, I'm alive" moments ;)

An Engineer

I needed and engineer, so I created a Night Elf Rogue, TheRaKuhn. She hit level 2 in 5 minutes, 3 in just under 12, 4 in just over 22, and 5 in just under 41. It sure is easy when you know where everything is. Now I can start mailing her stuff for engineering.

OniCoKuhn in flight

Finally made it to Moonglade, but what a flight home!

Learning about the Horde

I spent a little time with my horde characters this weekend. They have their own unique traits, it's fun to see what their world looks like.

Re-training the hunter

RedLiKuhn was also Skinning and Leatherworking, but now she's been retrained for Mining and Blacksmithing.

15. You can get help
When you can't figure out how to do a quest, you can send a message on the main channel for help or search a number of websites. In real life if you can't figure out how to do something, tough, you have to figure it out - only once in a while can someone offer a quick tip that makes it all clear.

16. No status reports
You will get to something or you won't, but you don't have to send mail to anyone letting them know when you'll be done. :)

Re-training the priest

MeLeKuhn is a priest. I don't like playing her much since she dies all the time. She's a level 16.

I was using her to send potions to MinNiKuhn, but since RaSiKuhn already has all those abilities and more, MeLeKuhn was basically just a bank with an occasional low level herb run. But today, I realized I could unlearn her talents and try something different.

She is now a tailor/enchanter. I took RaSiKuhn soloing thru the Dead Mines for cloth and green items. It was very successful. Currently, MeLeKuhn (after just one night) is 69 in Tailoring and 29 in Enchanting! Tailoring will jump significantly with the next mail delivery, there's a lot of linen enroute. She can't use the wool that's there yet, needs just 6 more tailoring points. I want to wait, but it's already pretty late... I should go to bed...
