Dear Zahana,
You can't kill Shade of Aran even though your group is over-powered to do so, and you just picked up the Wolfslayer Sniper Rifle off The Big Bad Wolf.
You can't get Leotheras the Blind lower than 4%.
You fail cause you brought Ugly Snake Thing to these dungeons instead of me.
LOLUMAD?

Yours Truly(and should be only),

p.s. if you even think about taking that damn thing to Hydross tomorrow I am leaving to find a new hunter who isn't a noob.

Phat Lootz

Most people will tell you they raid for the excitement of killing difficult bosses or for the group experience. They are lying! They want TEH PHAT LOOTZ! Why do they want it? They like the better gear, and they want it more cause it's not easy to get. I bring hunter to Serpentshrine Cavern, and we kill Hydross. If Hydross doesn't give up the Ranger-General's Chestguard it's like a week before Hydross comes back. I know what you're saying "Pudanda you like totatlly killed Hydross, how can it come back?" Well I don't know how it happens, I just know it does. I think it takes so long cause Hydross doesn't have a hunter to cast revive pet.(That's how I come back when I die)

So on with the killings. We told you about Hydross right? Lurker? We didn't tell you about Lurker? We killed that fishy like 2 weeks ago. We didn't tell you about Morogrim Tidewalker did we? Of course not, but that's how we started the week, with our first killing of that Giant. Once we learn it a little better, we'll tell you how to do it too. Afterwards, maybe we see about killing Fathom-Lord Karathress or Leotheras the Blind. Latter in the week we went back and killed Hydross and Lurker. Hydross still isn't giving up the chest-piece but The Lurker Below gave up Choker of Animalistic Fury. You think that would be enough for one week wouldn't you? Friday Snakes on a Trap went 5-5 and brought Hunter closer to getting his Vengeful Gladiator's Waraxe. Then there was Alterac Valley.

I hate the Alterac Valley. People go to get honor and don't fight, they aren't organized, they don't work together. These qualities make the other battlegrounds annoying, but the amount of Alliance idots in a Shadowburn Alterac Valley is down right dreadful. And the new reinforcement thing just made it even worse. So I was suspicious when Hunter said we were going with the guild. I wouldn't have gone, but by the time he told me we were already there. So I pouted, refused to hide, and didn't scratch a single horde (I did bite them, have you ever tasted a horde, I should have scratched them instead) Twelve minutes later we were back in Shattrath City. We won? Your kidding me, Hunter didn't die, he must have left early. But the rest of his guild is here too. Ok let's try this again. Well Hunter died this time, but still we killed Drek'Thar in even less time. By the fourth run he was dying in 10 minutes. I mean wow the other Battlegrounds went better with the guild, but not this much better.

Final notes for the week, ugly snake looking thing is gone! Now if we can just get ride of Kitty

Hunter decided to start up leather-working for the new chest piece from the Sunwell

Oh and the Phat Lootz. Karazhan had goodies for Hunter Steelhawk Crossbow, Scaled Breastplate of Carnage, and Helm of the Fallen Hero!!!

Hydross

Have you taken your hunter to Serpentshrine Cavern yet? I brought Hunter once when he was with his old guild but they couldn't just couldn't get everyone on the same page. It's not their fault, it was their first try. They've done pretty well for themselves in SSC since we left them. So now with this new guild we'd figure give it another shot. There was some confusion in the beginning, til me and Hunter figured out that the we had to kill the snake people hunter's before the Sporebats would stay sheeped. The rest of the trash mobs weren't too bad. Hunter talked to the nice healer lady from the old guild a little, cause they were there too. She gave some advice to kill the big guy we were about to fight.

Anyways so we get to this Hydross thing. Now this thing changes depending on where it is. First it's all waterlike, and the longer we bite him, the more water damage will be done. So what is supposed to happen is when he gets to a certain damage percentage, the meatshield is supposed to bring him across some line, (Hunter stops shooting, I go back to Hunter)and the new meatshield takes over as Hydross gets sick. We do our thing for a minute or two then switch it up as the 1st meatshield takes over for water form. Seems easy enough right? The problem is whenever there's a switch there's a bunch of elementals who show up and start making problems. Ok, so some people say they'll take care of the them. Problem solved right?

It would be if things went the way things had been planned. Apparently it wasn't just me and Hunter's first time fighting Hyrdoss, the rest of them hadn't fought him either. A bunch of stuff went wrong, but if boiled down to dealing with the changes properly. Since a all those elementals appear when Hyrdoss switches phases, if he switches too soon all they add up too quickly and kill everyone. And boy did they kill everyone. Eventually things got figured out properly and we killed him. It was late and there wasn't any other killing to be done that night. They're supposedly going back tonight, but Hunter is watching some bowl thingy and we couldn't convince him to watch it and go.

Other news of the week, Snakes on a Trap finished out it's 1st week 4 and 6. Almost made it 5-0 on Monday night, but they went up against a Hunter and Shamama-Lama-Ding-Dong team where the Hunter had like 5 pieces of arena gear. I mean I can't say that Hunter sucks cause he killed my Hunter, but really, if you have that much stuff for arena's why are you on a team with less than a 1500 rating? Other than that, Hunter made friends with the dragon people, well sort of. Now's he's using 2 weapons instead of just one. He says he's just trying something new. He also got rid of Bacon and got one of those ugly flying snake things Once again, he says he's just testing things out. They went with a guildie to Old Hillsbrad Foothills, partially to help, partially to get rep. The old man ended up bald. HAHA THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR TAKING THAT STUPID SNAKE THINGY!

Killing Things, Arenas, and Battleground Weekends

So I've had alot of fun killing things this week. We took it easy for a few days after The Eye. Killed some Clefthoofs and did some fishing in and around Telaar, some demons south of Ogri'la, and those annoying bird people near my old cave. Just kinda rest and relax for a few days. I needed a bit of a catnap after the excitement of the weekend.

While I was chill-laxing, hunter apparently has been up to a little something something. First of all he finally got around to naming scorpid (the little twunt is now known as Kitty). Second, and probably more news worthy, he found a guild-mate willing to join him in arena battle! He brought Kitty with them as they were spanked by another hunter and a can of healing. Kitty tried to blame it on the ale hunter had been drinking all night. Friday they went back before Warsong Gulch, and Snakes on a Trap didn't fair much better. The hunter and mage wiped floor with them, Kitty almost had the lock down but the shadow priest kept saving them, and I was brought in against can of sword smacking and the can of healing for the longest fight of the teams short career (4 minutes). My claws don't work well on solid metals.
They did win one fight. Kitty stung the hell out of the druid, and the hunter apparently wasn't as good as Hunter. :)

Then it was time for one of my favorite things Warsong Gulch!!! For those of you who are not familiar with this battleground you get your hunter and nine more to capture the flag of a bunch of horde. Now for most pets, your job is to take your hunter and go with the offensive team to get the flag. I don't recommend letting your hunter taking the flag when there are cans or druids around. The job of you and your hunter is to kill the people trying to get your flag carrier. Now you need to know what to go after first to be effective. No cans, they are bad for our nail job. I also don't recommend going after shamma-lamma-ding-dongs, cause they are probably wearing metal too. You wanna go for the squishies. Many people will tell you squishies are wearing cloth. This is not always the case. Those sneaky stabby people are squishies too. The it's a tree, it's a cat, it's a bear, it's a people things can be tricky.
That's task one. Task two is getting back the flag. Hunter is one of the best classes for finding the other teams flag carrier. We find them, hide and let everyone else know where the flag is, and then pounce when reinforcements show up. Plus if our flag carrier drops it, we're in great position to grab the flag. (please note that this is the only time you're hunter should have the flag and it should be given to a can at the first available moment)
But my favorite is flag guarding. We stealth, hunter stealths, and we destroy whoever comes to pick up our flag. Now we don't just go jumping on the first thing in red in the room. No No No. We wait for someone to actually take the flag. Why? generally the first ones in are there to distract us so cans can grab the flag.

Anyways tonight there may be some WSG, some Karazhan, or possibly some 80's metal. We haven't decided.

The Eye

One of my favorite things to do, other than lay out in the sun with a nice stack of fish, is to grab my hunter and a bunch of people he hangs out with and go kill the mean people and their monsters. So we got together last night with these people he calls "guild-mates" and headed over to Tempest Keep to go kill stuff in "The Eye".

My hunter recently joined a new guild. It's not cause there was anything wrong with the old one, he tells me he works with someone in this guild. So with all these new people around I was nervous. What made things even worse was that I was the only animal there! My hunter said not to worry, cause we knew what to do and were totally prepared and brought plenty of food and potions and stuff. So we went about our normal routine, kill the blood elves, pull the ones with the wanna-be dragons, pull the bigger wanna-be dragons. He died a few times pulling the big ones, like he always does, cause he's dumb.

So I'm getting ready to go The Crucible to get Void Reaver and he's all like no. I'm confused, are we going to The Solarium for High Astromancer Solarian? No? We Get To Kill The Birdie ?!? We've never tried to kill the the fire bird before. Oh was I excited. That may have been premature, but it's fun killing new things. Unfortunately for us, Al'ar (I guess that's the birdie's name, at least that's what the were calling it) wouldn't stay dead. We would kill it, then it would come back and kill us. I like things I kill to stop attacking after I kill it. So after many tries, we went to go kill Solarian when the Blood Elves from the birdie started to come back. I've only seen Solarian once before, so I was still pretty excited. So we attack Solarian, then the agents, then the priest, then Solarian, rinse and repeat. But then wow Solarian turned into a big blueberry monster! Ok so it wasn't a blueberry, at least not one I've ever tasted. I'm glad I recently had my nails sharpened, cause I scratched that thing until there was nothing but armor left.


Were we done? Not yet, cause I hadn't taken a shot at Void Reaver! So we run down the hall, kill kill kill, and in no time we are tearing into it's ankles. Hunter kept us topped off and we shrugged of his poundings and in no time there was a pile of scrap metal at my paws.



Hunter was really happy about how well we did, and that was before he got his new pants from the rubble that was Void Reaver's corpse.

Sneakiness and other fun stuff

Can you see us? No? We are there. It's cause of Prowl.

What's Prowl? Well it's this skill that my hunter taught me which makes it so you can't see me until I start attacking you. My hunter can do something like it, but he can't move or you can see him again. It's really fun when we are by a flag in Arathi Basin and some rogue thinks he is going to sneak up and steal it. That's why we rock. Bacon and the Scorpid? They can't stealth. Those little guys with the big guns? Nope, they're just little guys. I remember how cool I felt when I realized not all animals could do that. I was chilling at the stable and this ugly snake looking thing with wings was being all "I'm the coolest pet ever" and I was like "first of all I'm in charge not my hunter and second, you suck cause couldn't sneak up a dead frog. And your breath smells like you ate a 3 week dead murloc covered with rotten owl eggs."

Turns out just cause he can't stealth doesn't mean he doesn't know any special tricks. Lightning shot out of his mouth! Luckily my hunter had prepared me to deal with that type of magic, so I quickly went upside his head half a dozen times with my paws. He learned to not run his mouth without his smelly cow friend.

Shutout

So my hunter wanted to go do Eye of the Storm. I was like I just got my nails done. Didn't you get that scorpid for when I don't feel like doing these types of thing?



Seven minutes later guess who's back bragging about all the Horde she killed? Seriously there is something evil about that scorpid.
