Lil' Game Hunter

Yesterday I ended up getting a few very cool pets. I got the Frigid Frostling from Ahune! I noticed that I was pretty close to the Lil' Game Hunter achievement so I figured I'd pick up a few pets to finish it off.  I saw the Elwynn Lamb for a decent price and snatched it up, it really is too cute. So now I have my little Fawn pet which is simply adorable! I love pets and all that fluff.

I recently joined a new guild. I've been looking for one to raid a couple time a week with. So far the guild seems nice and today I am suppose to go on my first raid with them. They are currently doing 10 man ToC, while I would rather be doing ICC, it's been a real pain in the arse trying to find a guild. I mean, really , how do you meet people anymore in this game? At any rate I was very glad to find a new guild.

I was in a guild upon finding this one, it's one my husband has been in for quite some time. They use to raid but they don't do much of anything besides pugs anymore, randomly. So, I decided they were not for me, I wanted a more active guild.

Things have been going well since being back. I am still waiting on our authenticators. I saw that they are already out of stock again, I got to them in time!! I've never been to catch them in stock so it was nice to finally be able to grab them when I was checking.

Welp, I need to run off and set up vent for my raid and get some consumables ready for the raid! Hope everyone has a great week!

I Wonder if Lord Ahune uses Real ID.. (WoW)

I was surprised this year to find that you can join LFG for Ahune. It teleports you right to the spot to start, which is really cool.  Plus the 'goodie bag' for the reward is nice, I got some frost emblems and there is a new pet Frigid Frostling. I really want to get this little guy. Last year I got the Scorchling and was very happy.

There's a couple of new things with this weeks patch that I';m not crazy about. The new chat window. Supposedly it works better but I just don't care much for it so far. I dislike that big bar sitting there all the time that doesn't fade. Better yet the last person you chat to sets to the default chat, as it use to when you would use group or say. So it's something to consider when chatting in tells. This is because you can hold chat in different windows. It's not horrible but I don't like it so much personally.

Another thing I don't care for is Real ID. Seriously, my battle.net account email address and my real name are out there for people to see? If I add them. I'm not up for sharing that info. Yes, there are a few people I play with and talk to that know who I am IRL. I don't want everyone I am friendly with to know this.

Gordon over at We Fly Spitfires wrote really good post on it and brought up a good point, now we can communicate with the Horde with Real ID. Indeed it does break the immersion. Where is my fantasy in my fantasy game, the mystique? A smart thing would have just been to implement a messenger to add whoever as their character.  Make the messenger available in and out of game. Or make a handle required to use it. One that is not changeable. Problem solved!

What are your thoughts on Real ID and the new chat window?
