Saying Goodbye to the Headless Horseman

Saying Goodbye to the Headless Horseman

I found a screenshot I had taken during the Hallow’s End festivities that were going on, and for a moment I wondered what exactly I was trying to screenshot as my Rogue flew through Razor Hill.

Until I saw it… the little Headless Horseman way back in the background, over my shoulder.

Running Through Scarlet Monestary

Scarlet Monestary Graveyard, where Headless Horseman spawned

I also grabbed up a picture while some friends and I went through the Scarlet Monestary Graveyard, bringing my undead to where the Headless Horseman’s pumpkin had been, where the level 70s were getting the quest to summon the HH from the mound of dirt behind the pumpkin.

She mourned the defeat of the Headless Horseman and awaits his return next year (where maybe she will be big enough to help defeat him!)

Seeya next year, HH!

Funny Places to Mount Up

   Posted by: WoWGrrl    in Adventures In Azeroth, Adventures In Outland

While our main advancing toons rested quietly in an inn for a few more hours of accumulating Rest Bonus, a guildmate and myself hopped onto our low-40s toons and ventured over to Tanaris to try our luck doubling up on the yellow-and-orange quests together.

We were both in Booty Bay together when the ship arrived, so we hopped on it together and awaited its departure.

Funny Places to Mount Up - Boat

Out of boredom, I suppose, my guildmate hopped up onto a box that was sitting on the deck of the boat, and summoned his mount. I found it funny that it’s rear end is sticking INTO the boat…

Funny Places to Mount Up - Boat

So, I hopped up onto something across the way from him and found that I couldn’t mount up immediately, but if I tip-toe’d my way to the edge of it, I could mount up just fine.

Interestingly, when we zoned across to Ratchet from Booty Bay, I was dismounted, but my guildmate remained mounted.

Anyone know of any other spots on the boat that you can mount up like this? :) Take a screenshot, post it in your blog and leave me a note with a link to your blog :)

Aye!

Some of the more interesting and “nerve-wracking” quests that exist on World of Warcraft are the “disguise” ones. Where you need to get close to an enemy and activate a disguise that roots you to the ground like the one in Legion Hold in Shadowmoon Valley, or where you need to suit up in a disguise and then head into a normally-hostile town for some purpose or another.

Whenever we embark on one of these quests, we’re not sure when to activate the disguise, and not sure whether we’re going to die if we activate it at the wrong time and then have to re-start the quest for some reason.

Blood Elf Disguise in Netherstorm quest

And I don’t know if my guildmate companions notice (nobody tends to mention it, we just keep playing and move on) but there are very very few disguise quests that morph in-game female characters into female disguises. Like, this one in Netherstorm I was doing with my also-female guildmate - quite the coordinated equipment setup on this disguise, but it’s still a(n emasculated) male!

The Leper Gnome costume is also male…

I’m glad to see that the Netherwing quest line is supposed to have a Fel Orc female introduced, but of course, my next toon into that quest line will be a male, so I won’t get to test it out for quite a while!
