Same Old, Same Old

In the last little bit of time since I posted about the Anniversary servers, this happened:

June 2, 2026.

One down, two to go.

Cardwyn dinged L70 in Nagrand, leaving three untouched zones behind: Blade's Edge Mountains, Netherstorm, and Shadowmoon Valley. 

I don't think the other two toons are going to get so lucky, but we'll see. 

Listings are as of June 10, 2026.

I ought to note that unlike my experience leveling in Vanilla Anniversary servers, I basically would switch toons once they cleared a zone. So, the level you see for Linna is where she stood after finishing up Terokkar Forest. Briganaa was at L67 as well when she finished up Terokkar, but Card was a lot closer to L68 than the others are, which is how she was able to finish up leveling in Nagrand. There's also the little fact that getting some quest drops for Card were harder than others, and my exploration of finding Corki (that Broken NPC who somehow manages to get himself captured by ogres multiple times) meant I cleared out more caves than was necessary. All this meant that Card got a lot more XP from simply killing mobs than Brig did; she was just more efficient at questing than Card because she came along second and got to learn from the Mage's experience.

I've recently begun doing something I'd previously done on Retail, and that's just hanging around cities, watching the crowd.

And being amused by the guild names...

I still do make quips or gestures about things that pop into my head while playing, though...

The number of medical ads is too damn high.

And sometimes NPCs can't take a joke.

A Snapshot of Classic Fresh Guild Names Part 3

One aspect of the continuing health of the Anniversary servers is the constant flow of new guilds onto the scene. On the bright side, I have more material for this blog. On the not so bright side... You know, I haven't gotten many whispers about guild invites lately. I think that's because there's simply so many people that the bots and guilds aren't needing to scavenge for everybody out there. Perhaps when the people playing drop off will I start seeing more guild invites, but I guess we'll wait and see.

And away we go...

EtA: Not sure how "One aspect" became "I slice" in my writing, but it did. Corrected.

A Snapshot of Classic Fresh Guild Names Part 2

I thought I'd have enough for two of these posts, but let's just say that people are creative. So be prepared for more posts along these lines...

This is in here not because it's amusing or anything, but
it's also the name of Vidyala's guild back in Retail.
I wonder if some of her old guildies are now playing
the Classic Fresh servers...

"I---mannuael Kant was a real pissant..."

"Feral Kittens"

I think I found the guild that my Hunter ought to belong to.

"House of Bread"

With a toon name that recalls Ronnie James
Dio's first album, the guild "Disco For Life"
does kind of stand out.
