The great Feralas expedition.

Caedmon was way behind on his level of claw, so this weekend I headed over to Feralas to tame a bear and obtain it. To free up a stable slot for this mission I had to say goodbye to Malfoy my red wind serpent. It wasn’t heartbreaking. I never really cared for him. (In fact, I lied. His name isn’t Malfoy. He’s been sitting in the stable unnamed and I just wanted an easy way to refer to him in the future.)

I had to choose between him and Franklin the Turtle (Caedmon has earned a permanent life-shield). Honestly, I hate Franklin too. And here’s why: he’s got a lot of armor, but less dps. He can’t hold aggro either…which means that I have to produce less dps as well…unless I want mobs running at me…which leads to melee…which is just a mess. So the result is…we are a highly inefficient team. He is adorable, however, so he’s gained sanctuary for another week or so.

So anyways, I’m riding my Elek through Northern Feralas (which I must recommend for anyone interested in a lovely fall stroll). And I tame this bear…and I get claw rank 7…and then I see it. This gorgeous red gorilla. So I tame him...name him Thor...and we’ve been hanging out all weekend. I’m a fan of his Thunderstomp move, which allows him to hold aggro on multiple mobs, so I’m free to use Multi-shot as I please.

So please say hello to Thor, god of Thunder.

Hello,
I won't deny that I haven't really read your blog at all until just now, but I'm a big fan of BRK, and I was wondering if you'd be so kind as to check out my blog and give me a few much-needed suggestions.

Thanks,

Nice, I like the name for the gorilla... just don't abandon your kitty like I did when levelin hehe. It's a pain in the butt to get a good lookin cat once you get 60... unless you want a Winterspring one like everyone else.

I feel your dilemma on taming and the limited stable space. I have 3 pets that I enjoy to run with in different situations, so for a long time I really debated which one I was going to sacrifice to the skill-acquisition gods. Fortunately, I found that you can still get new pet skills without abandoning your current pet! Just dismiss the pet you're currently using with the Dismiss Pet command, and then tame the beast you want to learn from. When you learn what you've wanted, abandon your skill-mule and head back to town. Talk to the stable master and you'll see the pet you dismissed along with his two friends waiting patiently for you. Make sure you give the pet you dismissed some loving and snacks.

I enjoy your blog, got linked from BRK.
Take care.

Update: They must have 'fixed' the ability to temporarily tame the 4th pet in patch 2.2 - it doesn't work any more :(

Sorry about the now-useless advice.

Thanks for the advice anyways. I'd heard rumors about the temp taming thing, but I was always too nervous to try it. It's too bad they "fixed" that. I wish they would just make more stable slots available. Just like in the bank. The first one is cheap and then they get progressively more expensive.

I bought the iPhone Bluetooth Headset from Apple today, and I can't even wear the headset in my right ear, and put my iPhone 3G in my left pocket. Did anyone figure out a way to fix it/make it work a TAD better?
