Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

On the Countdown to Cataclysm, Blizzard sent to me...
Five Tidal Waves
Tidal waves triggered by Deathwing destroyed the coastlines of many zones This has submerged Thousand Needles, wrecked Booty Bay, washed away the eastern mountains of the Blasted Lands and opened the Sunken Temple lake to sea access. Have you had a chance to explore some of the changes wrought not by fire but by water? Have you discovered any fun or interesting things that these changes revealed?
The best reply will receive VIP Insider for 2 weeks! Potential winning posts are judged according to length, interpretation of the subject and writing style. At the end of our Cataclysm Countdown, 3 winners will be randomly chosen from the winning replies of each day and will receive the Grand Prize! A J!NX $20 gift certificate!

Disclaimers: Winners with too many ToS violations on their account may not be eligible to receive VIP. Only winners who live in North America will be eligible for the grand prize.
Didn't get to participate in previous days? There's still time!

I don't want to spoil it but... as soon as you can fly in Azeroth, go take a closer look at the poor, poor Booty Bay statue. ^_^
That being said I really, really liked the raceway at Thousand Needles. I was sad that it was going away. But I went ahead and gave the new quests a shot and they were really fun too! More fun actually. Some quests had me cracking up. So because I think they did a good job on the new stuff, I'm not too sad the old is gone forever.
Edit: Oh and the whirlpools in STV and Darkshore are pretty cool. I haven't had the courage to jump in them yet though.

**SPOILER**
The new area I have found most appealing is the new coastline of the Blasted Lands. The quests there are fun, you actually get to help enslaved Murlocs by attacking their Naga captors as the Naga herd the Murlocs off to captivity. You will see a long, slow, sad procession of Murlocs with their families and belongings. The quest lines are pretty entertaining. Go check it out if you haven't already.

I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

Hubby jumped in STV with his 80 mage and promptly died. (We did avoid the one at Darkshore.) Why I always travel as my pally with him when he's in an explore mood. <straightface> You know what they say about puddles and little boys...

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.
The weapon is only as good as the person wielding it.
Free advice is often worth what you pay for it: nothing.

I knew that Thousand Needles would be flooded and I knew that Booty Bay had been hit by a gigantic Tsunami, it was all on the trailers. What I was not prepared for were the things that this massive storm left behind. In Thousand Needles as well as the Plaguelands, colorful fish swim under the waters and bubbles rise slowly to the surface. In Booty Bay and all around Stranglethorn Vale the incoming wave must have swept wildlife from the out lying islands, as there a Monkeys and Parrots all about. In Stormwind the tide brought crabs to the once desolate canals. These are just some of the changes and the good ones. With this destruction that Deathwing inflicted upon the world it seems he has introduced us to a myriad of life that was brought in by the water.
Now if I could just understand where the camels in the middle of the Desert came from. . . perhaps they wandered out of Uldum when the gate was torn from it's hinges.
