My last WoW post… ;-;

Well, since yesterday and today I changed the theme and added a few things for the WoW players who visits this blog. Like I said a few days ago that I quit WoW on December 13, 2012 and I’m not planning to be back to WoW or who knows someday if the game returns to be like it was before the changes was made on Cataclysm and almost ruined with Pandaria, if you want to know more check “My WoW Characters” description or my sidebar description. WoW was fun while it lasted, but for me is not fun or challenging anymore, same copy paste again and again of some old content, too much little kids playing when it was supposed to be a adult MMO cause of the blood, violence, mild language and some alcohol, etc. :/
I’m very hooked with Tera Online because it has shiny decent graphics, the gear design is sexy and outrageous, the natural scenery is beautiful and the combat system is fresh and hard to handle. ;p I’m playing other MMO games like League of Legends, Ragnarok Online 2: The Legend of the Second, RaiderZ, Aion and others. I’m really gonna miss WoW after the 4 years I played, the many memories, the friends I met and enjoying drawing my Night Elf Druid and the Draenei Shaman, sad that I couldn’t lvl to 90 my Blood Elf Monk, but at the end I was already demotivated to keep playing. My hubby moved to play WoW: Cataclysm private server, our family moved to other videogames/MMO games including our friends.
I heard WoW went down to 6 million subscription and there are rumors that the next downfall is going to be 3 million subscription by the likes of it WoW maybe not will not reach to 10 years as Blizzard Inc. is hoping, the game is old and needs a new update to it’s graphic engine and stop paying attention to the crybabies including the unnecessary nerfs to the classes making it almost useless. So this is going to be my last post I do for this blog and feel free to visit at my Tera Blog: http://sakurasu.tumblr.com/ http://adiaryofacastanicpriest.wordpress.com/
Farewell WoW and happy hunting for those who keeps playing WoW. Sorry for my bad English here. xD See ya guys! ;’D

WoW Memories…..

Some old and new screenshots of my characters and the days I was playing WoW with my hubby, family and friends, screenshots I wanted to show before saying my last goodbye to World of Warcraft. Wanted to make my Blood Elf Monk reach lvl 90 before quitting, but I was demotivated to do it. Bye, bye WoW you’ll be missed. ;-;

My Official Retirement from WoW

After 4 years playing World of Warcraft with my hubby and our family and friends during Burning Crusade followed by Wrath of the Lich King then quit we quit during Cataclysm and I came back to test Mist of Pandaria, I decided to finally quit WoW to play Tera Online with my Castanic Priest, just not only to play Tera and other MMOs, is because WoW has lost it’s true fun, now everything is easy the game used to be hard and you always where praised by the people who where having fun and working to get their own stuff without ninja it or drama over silly things. I still miss it, but wow just wasn’t giving me what I wanted from gaming anymore. My Night Elf Druid, Luminar, will always be my favorite character I’ve ever played and she will always be in my heart. I’m going to leave inactive my WoW blog: http://lumis-sketchblog.tumblr.com/ and this blog too.

WoW used to have 12 millions subscribes, but last time I heard it went down to 7 millions of subscribers, why? Is because Blizzard decided yo kill the game with copy pasted old modified content, Cataclysm should had been a phased new area so people could see what happened before the shattering to follow the lore progression. The talent tree system disappeared from the game, some few helpful abilities got removed from each class when Pandaria launched, the class used to be unique and different from others now they share almost the same benefit, the game was hard, leveling was hard, classes get too much nerfs from people complaints who can’t play with their own class because x class was too overpowered that their x class, Blizzard instead of making and keeping the game fun is focusing  a lot on money and the crybabies, you needed to group with other people to complete a group quest and success as a teammate in a heroic or raid.

My hubby keeps playing WoW: Cataclysm in a private server, our family and friends moved to play other games and for me I moved to play Tera Online, Ragnarok Online 2 (I think is on beta test for NA), League of Legends, DOTA2, Lineage 2, RaiderZ and other games waiting to try Guild Wars 2, Elders Scrolls, ArcheAge and may be Stars Wars. WoW graphic engine is very outdated and I prefer Tera’s graphic and the gear design is beautiful including the environment, I like so much the combat system.<3 Yeah, as people will say Tera is pretty and shiny and I’m loving it, some of few of my friends started to play Tera too. Also I started recently to work on my Castanic Priest’s drawing. I made a Tera Blog for her too: http://sakurasu.tumblr.com/ and http://adiaryofacastanicpriest.wordpress.com/  http://a-diary-of-a-castanic-priest.blogspot.com/ So this is my farewell for World of Warcraft, thank you for the memories and fun I’d!!!  ;-;

This is what I wrote in Tumblr a few days ago. :O

Transferring Vs. Leveling another character in World of Warcraft, your thoughts?

In one of my post I was explaining why I wanted to start on another server guess I need to write it here again. Was planning to pay for the server transfer of my Druid or Shammy to Stormrage, why that server? Because Scarlet Crusade is a RP server and is almost dead, is not the same it used to be when I started and before I quit after Cataclysm 3 month of launch. Also my account was hacked too during my absence and half of the guild bank stuff was lost thanks to that hacker. Half of our friends and family have quit to play other games or server transferred, etc.
So I felt alone too and the activity on raiding/PvP is lacking for me on SC, so I recently started to level my Druid up to lvl 39 until I recruited a friend that granted me to reach lvl 50. He said why I wanted to make clones of my same toons from Scarlet Crusade on Stormrage or have both geared up, I said to him that I played Alliance side for almost 5 years since I started on 2008, my hubby always had played Ally a lot more than before I joined. So I decided to lvl with him with our Blood Elves Monks up to 90 then save some gold to get them heirlooms, but he said after we're done with RaF program he's transferring to Scarlet Crusade for Ally side and Ravencrest for Horde side. I picked up Stormrage for Ally and to be my 2nd main server besides Scarlet Crusade and Area 52 to lvl a Horde character up to 90.
Paying $32 every 2 month to play and $25 for transfer is hard, so why not leveling a toon up to max level? I know sometimes we consider the server transfer because we spend a lot of time for those characters getting stuff for them like transmorg and other items that are hard to get these days. I farmed and paid a lot of gold to get my Shammy's Engraved set with and the lvl 70 PvP Cataclysm set, my Pally's half Tier13 with some pieces from Sun Well and the 3 Dragon Soul dungeons, my Druid's ilvl 245 pieces with the Tier9 including Merciles Gladiator and one of the pieces from the Lich King pre-launch event, my Priest's Zul'Aman half set and the Tier10 set, I know I'll get those items again later on. Titles, pets and mounts are account wide now, why do we have to pay so much for a server transfer? I heard someone Rift gives every week a free server transfer to any server you liked to be I never liked Rift and I had played it before, but never knew about their transferring services, if Rift can do that why Blizzard Inc. can't? They can't be bankrupted after still having 10 million subs and gaining  a lot of money from Diablo III (there's a Diablo IV expack underdevelopment or incoming?). I always have liked so much Alliance for Night Elf and Draenei so I kind of person who likes to be with the good guys or the pretty stuff, the Horde race I like most is Tauren, Panda and Blood Elf.<3

During testing MoP in the Public Test Realm, this bottoms appeared on each of my character, was hoping to see this bottoms in live, but since it only was beta we still have to pay for transfer. :/ Apologies if I don't have the screenshot since one of my PC drivers was mistakenly uninstalled by accident when my baby daughter touched one of my PC commands and lose almost everything. >_<

I would like to see your thoughts about this, I can provide too the conversation about it too. Thanks for your support and apologies for my messy posts. \(>w<U)/

Changed my blog's URL name

Hello! Recently I made a blog in Tumblr for my Druid and alts to post mostly screenshots, new transmog sets, work in progress or finished WoW chibis/drawings and many other things in between, here's the address http://lumis-sketchblog.tumblr.com/ . Sakura*Sweet*Cherry is my 5 year old art tag name and is my username in DeviantART including my art blog in Tumblr have the name with "Art" added to the URL address, wanted to have name that could fit for a WoW log besides sometimes I'll add some of my random artworks here. Lumi's is the short name of my Druids' name Luminar and Luminaris (love their names so much!<3)

:D My Druid reached lvl 90! Which toon I should level next?

>w< My apologies for my late update guys! Yeah, after the 7 day trial Blizzard sent expired on the day of my 26th birthday in September 14th in the same day I decided finally to use the Time Card to activated my account again and attempt my goal of getting the "Destroyer's End" title before MoP, after getting my goal fulfilled I could do a few things with my alts and started leveling step by step my NElf Druid on Stormrage's server, but I'll write a post about what things I did before Cataclysm ended on September 25. While players where desperate to reach lvl 90 on the same day MoP launched, I took my time and relaxed myself to enjoy the new things on Pandaria while leveling my Druid, Luminar reached lvl 90 on October 4 and got exalted with "The Lorewalkers" too, I'm happy with the flying disc cloud mount including get exalted with the Pandaren's faction to buy all of their turtle mounts! :D I like better this expansion than Cataclysm, more fun and entertaining plus the mounts, pets and new gear styles are fantastic, the only ones I like most is the mail set from normal/heroics and the cloth set from Tailoring, epic reputation gear and normal/heroics.

I'm still pretty sad that my hubby don't play this expansion with me because he says the new talent tree system sucks and he prefers the old one instead so he keeps playing Lich King private server and complains how boring is the server now because during the evenings he finds some noobs in raids and sometimes he says silly things to me because I'm playing a crappy new WoW retail, really a crappy new WoW retail right? He gets so amazed about the things Pandaria has that he almost said he wants to play again. -_- Who really can understand him? I know some day he will be back! I still love WoW and it doesn't matter which videogame or MMORPG game I'll play I still gonna play WoW while it last. I'll mention later where I got my Druid's spec and how to understand the new talent tree system. ;) Stay tuned for those sites addresses!

I'm using NPC Scan from Curse's site since MoP launched and I'd encountered a lot of rares besides Sha of Anger and Galleon (both are world bosses with a gray dragon frame) thanks to that addon, but the sad part is the drops are Binds when Pick up. -_-* These rares hits like trucks and my druid including the rare both died together. Lol!

Anyway, I'll post what things happened after my official return to WoW. Now I'm still insecure which toon I should level next, my lvl 85 holy pally has jewelcrafting and enchanting so I want to get the mounts to make some gold, my lvl 85 pally tank has mining and engineering I want with her and my lvl 85 frost mage the engineering new mounts too, my lvl 85 elemental shammy has herbalism with alchemy, my lvl 85 shadow priest has tailoring with enchanting and my lvl 82 fury warrior still need to lvl mining and blacksmith xD, my server action house prices are horrible to get them gear while leveling or reaching lvl 90! Let's see which one will become my 2nd lvl 90. I read a few comments/posts about players complaining how horrible are the dailies, seriously I'm doing it to get the new mounts and some epic gear step by step including the leatherworking epic recipes, rushing things is not the best option, I want the Chinese epic cloth set for my shadow priest so bad!!! Well, until next time and remember try to have fun in WoW instead of complaining on everything if you've a right choice of doing things without rush ingame, there's still Pandaria for who knows what long it will last! Bye, bye! :D
