Blaugust wrapup

post 31 of blaugust.  The final post 😦 I have actually found this a lot easier to do than I thought I would. I only had 2 days where I was finding it difficult to write, which is quite surprising.  Although I’ve managed to post every day during August, I have been looking back to…

my top ten dungeons #1 (Estate of Unrest)

post 30 of blaugust. So here we are with my number 1 favourite dungeon ever… The Estate of Unrest.  Yes it’s from EQ2 😛  After the chat about The Estate of Unrest, there’s a quick summary of why these dungeons were my favourite – what elements they all shared, and why dungeons from other MMOs…

Storming Heart’s Grief [ESO SPOILERS]

post 29 of Blaugust (huge screenshot dump below) so I finally finished the main questline in ESO with my nightblade.  I quite enjoyed the story and I did really like the way we took Coldharbour by sections, and then stormed his castle piece by piece.  Felt quite neat.  I was sick of harvesters by the…

my top ten dungeons #2 (Veeshan’s Peak)

post 28 of blaugust Veeshan’s Peak is a raid zone in EQ2, designed for 24 people.  It was released part way through the Rise of Kunark (alongside the epic and mythical class weapon quests).  I had initially thought that I wouldn’t ever see this zone or get my mythical weapon.  I was wrong on both…

Birthday #3

post 27 of blaugust So today is my birthday and so far I’ve had a lovely day.  I got some fab pressies, a very cool Adventure Time tin, pencil and eraser set from my little boy.  Dimzad got me a very cool gaming mouse, the most gorgeous cloth-bound set of The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings…

my top ten dungeons #3 (Inn of the Forsaken)

post 26 of Blaugust The Forsaken Inn is a scalable 3 person instance in Lotro.  This dungeon is either love or hate I think, because of all the traps.  I love it because it channels the Goonies and also because I like playing a sneaky type rogueish character and it has a lot of traps to disarm…

my top ten dungeons #4 (Nektropos Castle)

Oh this dungeon brings back memories 🙂  I don’t think I want to count the number of times I have been in here…  It was a dungeon which was always relevant because it had a number of heritage quests associated with it, and I think one of the signature quests required you to go back…

ESO, SWToR, Doctor Who & a 6 yr old

post 24 of blaugust ESO I recently allowed the littlun to make a character in ESO as he is quite interested in the game and I was quite curious to see what he’d come up with.  A massive huge orc is the answer!  He wasn’t interested in the other races at all, as soon as…

Memorabilia

post 23 of blaugust We try not to have too many of one type of item on show in our house as we are ever vigilant of the dangers this brings…  My Nan mentioned once (seriously once) that she liked elephants, she ended up with over 50 of ‘the bloody things’ (to quote her exactly)….
