Winter veil and stuff

Gonna keep this one short as I am super tired but I wanna get it out as I do have a late Screenshot-a-day post I'm gonna link this entry on.
First... YAY! I got the Winter Veil Dragon skin! I ran this 57 times on my toons before it dropped for my hunter last Wednesday the 20th, so my screenshot is of my hunter on it. I'm so happy!! I'm still running the Holiday boss on a couple toons cuz apparently I am still getting toys and pets that I never got from prior years cuz I stopped running this a long ass time ago.

Next I got my 500th toy achieve! The Murglasses is so funny. When I put them on I see everyone, even NPCs as murlocks. Too funny, I was getting a kick outta that.

So this next one made my Christmas. Elo and Daisy got me 2 BlizzStore pets! (I had to cross out something in the pic cuz it had Elo's real name on that lol)
Twilight and Shadow are super adorable. Twilight changes 3 colors! I love them so much. Elo and Daisy are too fuckin sweet to me. they know what makes me happy lol.

Alrightee what else happened...
Ahh yes, I was feeling down again and really not wanting to play with the guild for a bit. So I did kinda say I was gonna take a break from Deadskully, but people in my guild are so sweet. I got several messages saying not to leave/stop playing. And I can't ignore those. I have been on my alts more that are in different guilds, but nothing really compares to Midlife Gamers.

I am someone who watches how people treat others, how guilds interact with their members, especially how guild leaders treat their guildies. No other guild I found has this. I do give a shit about people in the guild. If they take the time to interact and be social and that's what they want out of the guild, then I'm all for it. We'll include you. On the downside, not all our officers play like that. Not all of them are about the "guild" and rather pushing their own io and stuff. Whole guild satisfaction and making sure people are happy isn't at the top of their lists.... and that's probably the only thing I'm disappointed in, BUT this is just a game and people play differently then others. Can't please everyone.

And finally!
I always wanted to know what the heck this green shit was...
I finally saw someone use it while waiting for the holiday boss yesterday, took a screenshot, posted it in discord and asked. Indeed it is a toy from a Legion quest chain, but was told that you can't get it anymore aside from seeing if someone is selling it on the AH.
150K gold later... The Pocket Fel Spreader is MINE! I ruined our benches... Sorry!

Mid December update and AOTC baby!!!!

So last night we got this. Yay. 
Sadly I just found out that although it was a great moment, things overshadowed what was seemingly an awesome feat. It's stuff that I really don't want to know but when it effects the core, that's the shitty part. It feels like being stuck in the middle of your two parents having a disagreement. 
Nonetheless, we got Heroic Fyrakk down as a guild group, no pugs.  

And here is where I stand as of tonight. Just hit my 2500 io!!! I was so excited!!!!! I have a lot of low fortifieds, I really think I can get to 2600. Like with everyweek, everyone is "Oh this is a push week" then when the week actually comes, they're like "this week sucks". But we'll see if my drive to log in and play on this toon will still be there in the next couple days. Not feeling good and all the tension between everyone just sucks. 

And to end this on an amusing note. This guy right here used to be in our guild. Apparently he went and told my alt's guild we're standoffish (or "offstandish" how this fuckin idiot put it). First off. He hardly talked in guild chat, joined discord a couple times, declined doing keys because they were too high for him, but didn't ask if we could do lower ones with him. Asked for guildies to make stuff for him, and when we did he praises how much he loves us. I looked at this il... Bitch was only 439 and had 5 20s done... oh what is this? you got hard carried by someone in tank spec to funnel you gear? every single 20 had 2 tanks 2 dps and a heals. I just checked IL shot up to 467 real fast eh!. If I was a dick I would whisper an officer and she'd kick his ass. BUT, unlike this asshole I'm not gonna go around the game and talk bad about people. Just take your ball somewhere else, don't need to say anything cuz you never know when others are listening. If he was more interactive, I'm sure we would have helped... But we appreciate when players can play for themselves and not pay for those hard carry runs. I appreciate this guild that we don't have people that exploit others... however, I'm sure that's how guilds make gold so they can get what they need for their raid team. Hold up! that's not a bad idea... We need to buy every motherfucker a flavor pocket!

Happy Winter Veil!!!!

 It's that time of the year again!
Winter Veil has rolled around again and with it brings a toy and a new dragon skin. The new skin comes in 2 parts. one helm that has antlers, a red nose and red ribbons., the body armor has a santa sled seat, leg guards and a collar.  And the toy I this is just a pepe on a sled. I got it but didn't bring it out to see what it does.

I will be honest here, I was getting a bunch of new pets and toys when I had my alts run the daily and Im pretty sure they weren't new as I have not ran ANY winter veil things for many many years. When I got the violet proto I think thats when I stopped. but I check to see achieves every expac. So really if anything new was dropping off the holiday boss and in the presents, I would have no idea. Oh well, I'm getting them all now lol. YAY!

So the Holiday boss is the Greench Yeti in Alterac above Hillsbrad Foothills. The junk part about this one is that you have to actually go there and its not a Que up boss, like the other events. I'm pretty sure the drop rate is like the other ones now where you run one alt per Bnet account and they have the best chance to get it and everyother alt you run has the .000001% chance or some dumb shit like that. But what ever, I'm still gonna run my alts in there... kill the Yeti, free Metzen and open my gift reward hoping I'll get lucky. 

The Brewfest mount eluded me and my alts this year...
But Skully, what do you care? you won't even use it...
THAT'S NOT THE POINT! I need it very much, I'm a collector! and maybe I'll feel in the festive mood someday and roll around with it.
ANYWAYS!!! so for the past 3 days that Winter Veil has been out I have ran this 38 times spread between 18 alts. Thats not even all of my alts I can take there but it does get tiring. LOL
SO! this is my shortcut to get there on my alts. 
Get quest in Org > teleport to Undercity > fly to Tarren mill > set hearth to Tarren Mill > kill Greench > use Orgrimmar cloak teleport > turn in quest = Done

Next day: Get quest > Hearth to Tarren mill > kill Greench > cloak teleport back to Org > Turn in quest = easy peasy!!!

And finally.. check this out! Friday I went into a key and saw Tyr looking like Santa! And the Counsel in Amirdrassil had hats on the too... Just like Xmas Rasz!!!!

Give me presents or you get the implosion of imps!

Dec Update and my greedy guilt

Fiiiiirst! My latest character progress. 
Excited about everything there. My trek to 30k achieve points I am most proud of. I think I say that mainly because most of it I've gotten solo. I get carried for my io and my il... but nonetheless, still happy about that.

500 mount achieve baby!!!
This one felt impossible at the beginning of the expac but new mounts  made it easier of course. The reward for that... this Spectral Ottuk mount. Flying otter mount.

Very neato. And no further mount achievements have populated so I guess they won't make a 600 yet. which is fine, cuz that's one achievement I will not push for a looong while.  600 is just crazy! Who in their right mind would get that!!? ME!, but not yet.

Anywhose... 2k io was done as well, thanks to my boys for letting me tag along. Same Armoredon as the previous seasons just lookin all branchy and shit.

Aaaand, I messed up the other night in raid. Along with being one of the worst in there, I also was extremely greedy. Honestly I don't know why. I mean, my eyes got huge when I saw the items drop and instantly all that went through my head was..

BIS BIS BIS!!! mine mine mine!!! gimmie gimmie gimmie!!! Seriously I got 3 things in there and put 2 of them on right away. I've won multiple things before, but I always sat on it and ended up whispering the person with the next highest roll and giving it to them. 

I should not have put them on and just sat for a bit until my conscience kicks in. I don't think im being to hard on myself. Don't be greedy, be an adult, and think about guildies is what we talk about constantly. And unfortunately, I did not. I only thought of myself and what I needed. Disappointment in myself, and shame and dare I say disgust is what I'm feeling right now. I'm sure other people feel some type of way too, but just are not coming out and telling me straight. They don't have to... I know... cuz I feel the same and trust me, I'm beating myself up for it. I just got done listening to how selfish other people were and here I am doing the exact same thing. Gonna be a drama queen for a bit here, it almost makes me not want to raid or be an officer. What a shitty thing to do as an officer especially. Embarrassment kept me from doing some stuff today in game. When I logged in, made conversation but kept to myself for the most part. Running keys for wyrms, collecting pets and getting achieves. Felt like old times.

Im gonna try to sleep for most of the day as it is 6:00 am and I have not gone to sleep yet. "Try" being the operative word here. It never really turns out that way cuz I'll feel like Im wasting the day away.

My Backpack!!!!

This one I started on 11/26 when I got my backpack.
I stopped pushing for this for the longest time, because I thought it was gonna take me longer. I needed so much corrupted mementos I just figured to just let it be and if I get it, then I get it... But when I actually did some calculations and realized it wasn't that bad, I figured to push...

I know I explained/cried about this process in a previous post, but I'll go over it again.
First, before I could buy my backpack, I had to unlock the whole tree. Activating all the 5 masks, killing everything and collecting all the chests I could find was the way to go. Finally!!! I get to buy my backpack!!!! Its so cool!!!!! I love it so much! All the detail. I love the hearthstone that peaks out of the side of it.

And a little gripe here, I've done this achievement, got the 5/5 but it didnt pop for me. I left it for a day or two figuring it just needs time to catch up, but it's still greyed out for me. I read on wowhead comments that its bugged. We have to find items and I dont know which item I'm missing that falsely registered. And of course a ticket into Blizzard fell on def ears and nothing came of it. I guess I gotta go do them all over again.... Poops
