My toons! Let's see, who's gonna be first over to the new land. I think I'll make a panda first. Or at least see options. I didn't really get to see the Beta so this is still new and shiny.
-- side note - the duck sauce with my crab rangoons seems a little suspect. I will forgo the pink goo as a precautionary measure. --
Ok, damn the female pandas are cute! And I mean that in a good, fun way. So many choices! OK, female, panda, monk - named Barisan (after a Sumatran rhino sanctuary)- ready to go.
--Warning, I go through the entire start zone- there may be SPOILERS - you have been warned --
"Enter World"
[hold on a sec- "esc" "Interface" "Auto loot" "return to game" - ok there we go, now I am ready.]
I wonder who's behind the female pandaren voice - "not enough energy"
Ding - Level 2!
The amberleaf scamps are hilarious, both in animations and vocals.
Anyone notice that Master Shang Xi just sort of appears where he needs to be, all mysterious like?
Ding - Level 3! softshell turtles sound adorable when clicked. Gaa! Evil monkeys! More evil monkeys! Master Shang Xi snuck up behind me again! /bartender *makes adjustments*, /sexymap *makes adjustments* - There we go. Ding - Level 4! Monkeys dying all around me. -- beer time - Shock Top - a light Belgain white -- mini boss fight, then awesome little fire dude! oh look, Master Shang Xi, again. Ding - Level 5! |
Endless vegetable fields, what's this hopping by? - gaa...accidentally killed a grasshopper - wake up little buddy, I didn't mean it. /sigh not so great at this monk thing, sometimes. Turnips are...OH MY GOD...IT'S A GIANT TURTLE!!! THE ISLAND IS A GIANT SEA TURTLE! ( I mean, I kind of knew that already, but it is so amazing to see!) I think the plump virmen are modeled off the Oracles in Sholazar Basin. They have killer burps. Turnips, pumpkins and carrots, Oh my! Ding - Level 7! |
This dude really likes to break stuff with his head. One of these times it isn't going to work out so well for him.
Ding Level 8 & 9!
Oh, Master Shang Xi, fancy meeting you here.
50 quests completed!
Master Shang Xi, No! Don't go! Master?
Best hot air balloon ride in WoW!
running through the forest...just a running through the forest-
---and with that I leave you there for the evening. I am battling a migraine headache and will soon succumb to unconsciousness. It has been a lot of fun being a panda and the zone is absolutely beautiful, the quests are fun and occasionally make me chuckle. It's a good start zone story. Tune in tomorrow for the conclusion of my harrowing tale.
Will I choose Horde?
Will I choose Alliance?
