I've got some sad news, right after Cairne's death.

As I don't have enough time to keep this blog on even decent state,

I've decided give it a rest. I had fun times writing the blog.

The blog will remain, as I've noticed that its fun to read the old

posts after a while and read over the things that I've done with my friends.

I want to thank all my blog readers & friends.

Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed making it.

 

Moostomp, Bane of the Alliance teleporters, Lord of the Mage Quarter

PS. There is another pageful of my posts at Page 2
People have been asking for those, so just pointing out.

PPS. For those who want to contact me, I'm currently
playing a Worgen Druid "Pawless" at Kor'gall EU.

Movie spotlight: Zyredox

My words can not express how eager I am to see Zyredox's new movie

after seeing the intro of it. I'm not sure but by the looks of it, Zyredox

has removed his old video from Youtube which also was great, but in the

newcoming video we're gonna see a huge improvement from what we saw

at his last movie; Urban Routine. All I can say of the intro that it left me 

thinking that the movie is gonna be a real tribute to World PvP'ers

who love ganking and whines. This is just a headsup, I'm sure

I'll be posting something about the movie once its released.

And for my movie.. Its finished but im having trouble uploading it :I

Why me?

"Lol Moostomp! I have that achievement on 10 of my alt characters"
"You still dont have that? LOLZBORGIRZ!"

"Lol, I just had that achi on my last BG, too bad I've already had it like 12 times!"

Moostomp the King-fucking-slayer

Hahaha, thats right! I've failed you all! I've been secretly doing some PvE behind your backs!

How about that Ravage?

Feral

• Maim now deals 155% weapon damage, up from 100%.
• Rip base bleed damage has been increased by 50%.
• Shred now deals 350% damage, up from 225%. Additional damage increased by 55%.
• Swipe now deals 335% weapon damage, up from 215%.
• Ravage now causes 850% damage, up from 550%. Additional damage increased by 55%
• Claw now causes 155% damage, up from 100%. Additional damage increased by 55%.
• Ferocious Bite base additional damage increased by 55%.
• Rake bleed damage has been increased by 55%.
• Fury Swipes now deals 310% weapon damage, up from 200%.

4.0.1

So, 4.0.1 is here. Druid forums are filled with confused people.

First, we figure out that Ferals are nerfed to the ground.. Or more

like below.. Well, that fills the forums with "Rerolling QQ" -kindalike

topics. Then, people learned that reforging is pretty useful for us

since you can get like +50% damage on bleeds (which counts shred &

maul btw). This is the part where Blizzard steps in: "Damn, looks like

all melee classes are underpowered.. Hmm, well lets fix ferals and

buff rip by 1000%" Now I can absolutely stomp everything, as long

as a caster doesnt get to DPS me. 1v1 = Ferals hit like a truck.

And in 1vX, feral is more of a wet noodle. But when spiced up
with a healer or two, Feral is unstoppable killing machine.

I sure enjoy the fact that after the patch all pvers think
that they can do pvp in pve gear. I've critted 24k in a BG
at highest so far. Sure gotta love 5 point ferocious bite with
120 energy & +10% dmg from Tigers fury. It hits like a
blue whale with eating disorder dropped on you from the sky.

Excited to see what the following patches are going to bring us.

At least +50% buff to resilience to restore nicer experience for

pvp. Tho, people rumor that it was a hotfix and its in the game

already. I sure hope thats not the case..

Oh, and btw, I finished up the first part of my new movie series. I'll be rendering
and uploading it anytime now. Stay tuned for it!

Aye, hes the poor tauren located in Orgrimmar inn.

My good friend Gamon told me that hes sick of Orgrimmar. Hes been there for ages,

keeping his anger locked inside, thus letting it grow bigger and bigger each day.

(Which explains the neutral status instead of friendly)

He would like to see the world as it is. Therefore, I dare ALL of you to kite

Gamon to the most bizarre places you can think of and upload screenshot of it

and whisper or mail me the address in-game. (Moostomp @ Burning Blade)

No, you dont get rewards, you greedy bastards! Cant you see the fun of it?

FIX: Apparently, it has been fixed.. You cant kite Gamon anymore :'(

Busy sunday with Crime Syndicate.

First of all, my good mate Dorna bought some gametime. Three big cheers for him! Hes a real die hard World PvPer. We met in Ashenvale (as we we're rats at that time), during Vanilla, when WSG was invented. Everybody had to be in Ashenvale in order to queue in the battle. We happened to be in the same level bracket and he just happened to enjoy playing with healers while I enjoyed healing back then. What a perfect match! We've known since then.

Anyway, Crime Syndicate arranged a raid for Stormwind. On the way we decided to take over the Flight Path master, which turned out to be an exciting plan. After a good while of fighting ourselves trough Stormwind to the flight path master, getting tons of HKs on the way and while there, we were outnumbered pretty heavy, which forced us to do a bit unusual strategic move. Or it was that moonkin with typhoon, not sure..

We jumped to the lake, swam to the shore, regenerated our mana and health and stroke when the alliance was still in the water. You'd maybe think that we had the upper hand. At least that what we thought, but they quickly outnumbered us there again and it was a wipe. After countdowned mass resurrection and stomping the remaining camping alliance, we headed to the Auction House.

 

 Upper hand?

Well, no news from the AH. We managed to keep it for a good while but its not that easy to hold a entire building in opposite faction city when they just keep swarming in. After a good bunch of HKs and inavoidable wipe, we resurrected ourselves in the building that is behind Auction house. Cant remember its name but it had a sign with arrows on it. Has probably something to do with those then, hmhmh..

I for one didn't enjoy this building that much. As a melee I had no clue what was going on. I got some random swipes every now and then but other than that it was just a huge mess for me. I hope that the ranged classes had some fun in this one at least. After one more wipe, we resurrected in another building, fought for a while and then headed to defend Orgrimmar, which was being attacked. Had fun and got 1000 HKs closer to "Moostomp of the Horde" title.

Again, feel free to /w me for some WPvP company! Catch ye later.

Thats right!

I've seen it all now. After months of losing in Wintergrasp actions were made.

Crime Syndicate organized a premade raid for WG, which worked pretty well.

Go see the video HERE and if you want to discuss about CS in WG, do it in HERE.

Ps. Ding 1000 visitors, whoo! ^_^

I just want to give a big /applause to Gambrinus PvP Team. They had this huge raid in Orgrimmar to took over the small building next to Auction House. They ran in and held it for over an hour. I bet they had countless kills during that time. And I'm not sure but they wiped once and took it over again. I gotta admit, these guys are class. Too bad they are Alliance and CZ only guild.

   Yard in front of AH was filled with corpses.

Not to mention what was inside.

Arr me hearties!

Don't thee be forgettin' that it be the PIRATES DAY today!

I be wishin' sum' good lootin' & wench huntin' for all me blogreaders!

IT BE INTERNATIONAL!

Kirroth! Also known as Kalce, Kalcium. I'll be writing another post later about how I met this guy. But on top of the fact that hes a great guy, he has unbeliveable skills as playing mage. I was privlidged to be able to have him in the guild and thus, WPVP with him. This post is about how we spent an evening World PVP'ing together.

So the evening began with some minor slaughter in Wintergrasp with my good new guildie Kirroth. He works as a great lure cus of his blue staff & massive 19k amount of HP :) We managed to take several Alliance and if I recall right, we didn't die even once? Had a nice closecall when I got away with 24hp though. Gotta love those rocket boots.. Well, after a good while of Slaying and fighting in the WG Battle we decided to head to Dun Morogh, for the Gnomeregan event. Even though it was phased, we managed to get few kills and whines there as well ;)

During our visit in Dun Morogh, this mage tried to kill us, yet we ended up killing him. After a while I saw that Kirroth was in combat in distance so I started heading there. When I arrive, turns out Kirroth, our 19k hp Fire Mage had pwned this another mage with 'Arena Master' title. I just had to finish the job with good ol' Ravage there, but Kirroth did 90% of the job there. Oh yeah, and we got whine from him too:

Despite the fact that I cant recall calling myself skilled, nor im trying to prove that I have any skill trough the most unfair aspect of PvP in WoW (WPVP) that I had any, I wonder if the guy manages to see the irony in these 2 pics.

<- Stompy outnumbered

 I hope this raises my reputation amongst Zylophians since they collect whines as tributes in slaying :-)

During that menace, Zyredox joins us. Speaking of the devil, does anybody see him in Friendly or even Contested territories anymore? No matter when, hes ALWAYS in SW. This guy seriously does nothing but World PVP. Anywho, Zyredox joines us in Ironforge and we had the most epic slaughter ever. I was really happy to see even this aspect can still surprise me. Though we died pretty often cus we didnt have a healer (except for Deathdlydruid who joined us later in moonkin spec). We abused the tiny houses that are all over the city, which was really cool. After thinking of it, I've always had fun when I've gone to IF. It just tends to fail on the fact that there isnt any people with PVP on, but it really is worth the trouble(dying) to get people flagged. Check my vid 'the Culling of Zylosforge' for example. 

As I said, Deathdlydruid joined us after a while. First as feral but since we got ALOT of people coming on to us, he went Balance spec so he could heal us. Well that didnt turn out that well either, since the rat numbers were sick. We tried to go to SW but got raped by Gambrinus (Gamberigrijgjbrus) PvP team in the tram. After that, IRL called me so I had to apart. Despite the fact that we died pretty often, I had really fun World PVP'ing in these places, with these guys. This event really cheer'd me up and im surely gonna make more World PVP events running, as well as more posts here. Starting with post how I met Kirroth.

/w me for some World PVP in-game!

Mage Quarter slaughter & Ironforge teasing

On saturday I got invited by Zyredox to an Mage Quarter raid organized by Zylos Hand.

On sunday we had a small but effective raid to IF. Maybe Magni goes down later?

Zylophians and some dedicated World PVP'ers amongst them (e.g. Tornado) had invited themselves into my tower before I was even there! Well luckily im a friendly fat cow who welcomes everybody who enjoys a good slaughter to my hideout. After a long good hour of slaying I had to leave the raid 'cus RL called at that time. Nice to see so many people in my tower. Thanks to everyone in the raid.

And sunday after playing some arena with Zyredox & Goranas, Zyredox really wanted to kill Magni Bronzebeard. Well, of course we had to give it a try though it didnt go so well in the end. We ended up trying it only once and during that try Goranas got knocked into lava and we wiped at 99%. We didnt give it another tries because there were so many rats swarming. So we just had fun killing them after Zylopfa joined us.

There hasnt been happening much lately. At least I havent been online much lately so I dont have alot to report about except these two things I had over the weekend. Mostly playing arena and helping my RL friend who just had a faction transfer to the server. Hopefully something big starts happening soon to spice things up.. Anywho, if you want to join me in Mage Quarter, feel free to give me a whisp in-game.

Oh, did I mention I met Zili after a long while? :)

Alright, it seems like theres lots of things going on in the Outdoor PVP scene in Burning Blade at the moment, so I decided to make up a small community check to see whats going on and what are the hot topics on Burning Blade for the moment.

First I want to point out the thing that intrests me the most; Alliance has a new World PVP guild called CLIMBIN IN YO WINDOW. It currently seems to have 6 members. Which can be explained by the trial you need to pass to join the guild. The trial is following: "If you want to join, contact either me or one of the current officers, you'll need to prove yourself tho by doing a hit on someone. You'll get the name of the person you need to kill in order to join, from the person who's recruiting you."-As stated by Impresonaz the guild master.

It gets reaaally intresting now. Especially after Impresonaz' post which is following: "And ye it will be hard hits like moostomp :) wont be easy to join.". And it took about 5mins for me to come to write about it to my block and show it off to you guys ;) Hopefully I get some assassins after me, it could get really fun to have World PVP following me 24/7. If you want to discuss about the guild you can do it in the topic at Burning Blade forums. <LINK> 

 Also my good friend Hirono from Crime Syndicate is looking for guilds willing to fight Crime Syndicate in the Gurubashi arena. Hes looking for fair 10vs10 fights with other guilds. They wish to use pretty much same rules as in normal arena. No worries if you dont want to be marked as "the guild that is worse than Crime Syndicate" -since these guys are just looking for some fun. Here's a quote from Hirono: "Zylos Hand and Crime Syndicate clashed earlier in an organized, 10 vs 10 match in the Gurubashi Arena and I can't speak for Zylos but we really enjoyed it. The general consensus amongst CS was that we wanted to throw out a challenge to the rest of the server to come and try us at the same thing. The concept is pretty simple, we're not claiming it's an original idea or that we're going to be the most awesome 10 Man team in the history of WoW PvP - we're just looking to instigate some fun fights and inter-guild competition." For more information & discussion you can find trough this <LINK> to the Burning Blade forums.

And something visual as well! I finished my small duel clip which includes 2 duels vs Overseer of the SW AH: Zyredox. Those duels turned out to be really funny, filled with engineering tricks and close calls. Be sure to check the clip via this <LINK>.

Also stay tuned for Zyredox' incoming SW ganking movie, which will be shorter and even more intense than his earlier movie callied 'Urban Routine' which can be checked <HERE>.

What will the next few days bring us in World PVP? 

Assassination attempts? 10v10 fights? Stay tuned!

Spies, maneuvers & rats (Video released. Check the bottom of this post)

Ah! Good to be back! And what could be better way to celebrate my return than good ol' ratslaying! My good loyal spy Kelzus reported me that there was lots of pigs waiting for slaughter in front of SW gates. After thinning the Alliance ranks a bit I had to flee for a short while to duel with the Overseer of SW AH, Zyredox. We took few duels which turned out to be intresting so I ended up fixing a clip out of our little dueling session. I'll be uploading it to WCM but it takes a couple of days to be verified.. EDIT: It has been verified that Kelzus truly is a nasty, traitorous Horde SPY! More of it in this topic at the Burning Blade Forums

I know that I promised to be uploading a video of duels with Zylopfá. Referring to himself, there was nothing amusing in those duels because I was just running away (read: kiting) from him and killing him slowly. So I dueled with Zyredox, at least as skillful and well experienced Shadowdancer. Hopefully Zyredox enjoyed dueling me as much as I enjoyed dueling him. As I said, the video clip of us dueling is viewable at Warcraftmovies.com in a couple of days.
EDIT: Click here to watch it.

After a good while of dueling, turns out Zyredox has a life(?) and he quits so I had to come up with something else to do. After running around with Kelzus and killing a couple of rats, I notice that Freedóm & Viraia are in Westfall. Turns out the war against Alliance has gained a new aspect; Buffing mobs that are important to the Alliance. Thus slowing their leveling. Hmh, what an excellent maneuver! Kings, Fortidute, MOTW and Thorns gives a nice boost to these mobs.

After a while of buffing mobs, we continued co-operating and had some fun at Arathi Basin and Stormwind Gates. Especially SW Gates, where we got a good kill-streak of 13 at battle of 5 vs 3. Dont know how much that would have continued but we decided to join AB when it popped out. After that AB I invited Freedóm & Viraia to my tower in the Mage Quarter. We had a short visit, as we slaught a fistful of alliance and got outnumbered too greatly in the end, where we gave our lives for the Horde. Enough for the RP then.

Had fun as always, too bad there wasnt alot of people on this evening. Looking forward to the next week. Can't wait to get up a good group of World PVP'ers and take over the Mage Quarter. Stay tuned and /w me ingame for some outdoor PvP!

Zyredox vs Moostomp Video

Issues with my PC again..

Sup guys. Im having trouble with my PC again.. Having 15-20fps all the time. And since im not good with computers, I have to wait till weekend for my friend to fix it up. But after THAT I'll be providing some epic dueling material vs Zylopfá the Omnipotent and some World PVP content to the blog. So, see you guys very soon. Hopefully.. /emowrist

Back in business!

Yay! Got my router working now. Turns out the there was something wrong at the host.. But I got it working, so I had to celebrate it with a bit of World PVP! So I joined a raid full of Zylophians who were slaying in Duskwood/STV. Too bad there were only few Alliance but we slaught them good. Even though I was crying while doing it; My fellow guildmate, Stickylol has an alt which is a RAT! (and Kelzus) No hard feelings taken, though their resistance was futile when they cowered in fear (read: stood by /gasping and doing nothing) while I killed them. Anywho, I was glad there was some old rivals as well. Tornado's alt got stomped by the dominating World PVP guild Zylos Hand. It was fun, but could have been funnier if there was more Alliance. Hopefully Tornado's guild gets some wind under its wings so we can start having big battles in Contested Territories and in Horde Cities. We'll see how it gets going after a while.

And again, glad to be back. Meet you in-game, and /w me if you are up for some slaying or having trouble with the Alliance!

A Short break from WoW!

Im afraid I have to leave playing WoW for a week or two. Im currently having 1400ms since I just moved in together with my fiancé and im using her laptop's internet connection. I already arranged a new host with 10/2 speed but it takes 1-2 weeks to get it work, cus its a real rush hour here since the schools have started and lots of people have moved in this area to study and im not the only one without good connection. But I hope the wait is worth it, I used to have 1mb connection and now im using this piece of shit with 10kbs download rate. Anywho, be sure to check my blog again after a week or two! Short break will do good. I'll get my school on trail and I'll give a big burst of World PvP posts after the break! See you guys in a couple of weeks or less! :)
(Im still active on forums and such)





I Noticed what a messy post this is. So if you want a summary of the post, click "Read more" -link below. 

Trinkets, Faction Leaders & Zylophians

As the people who have read my posts earlier may know, we've created a new fashion in our small WPvP community, which is Faction Leader slaying with small groups. The day started with the usual slaying at the Mage Quarter with Auction house Overseer Zyredox. And was followed by STV arena fight. A great number of Zylophians helped me to get the trinket. I greatly thank you all for that. (More about STV arena below). After the STV Battle we decided to kill some Faction Leaders. So we killed Tyrande & Velen (7-Man). After that we decided to give it a try to slay the tinker boss in Ironforge.

  ...And we managed to do that as well. Only few alliance dogs interfered our fight but mighty Zylophians got rid of those interlopers quicker than ever! After downing the Tinker we got another 'great' idea, which was to kill Stormwind's Varian Wrynn. Well, that didn't go that well though. We ran in to the keep and we had to hide 'cus we got outnumbered. But about 40mins and 2 battlegrounds later, we went for the kill. King Varian Wrynn, 7-Man. Again, hardly any alliance interfered our fight. Of course there was some minor resistance, which was futile because of the experienced Zylophian slayers. Magni is still alive but I'm sure we'll be getting him too soon.

World first? He didnt even reward any honor or drop gold. 

 I also want to thank all of you who have helped me to get the trinkets at STV arena. I finally got 

the achievement. Special thanks to Zyredox, who fought countless battles with me at the arena.

Tyrande Whisperwind 3-Man
With Fnyx & Zyredox from Zylos Hand

 

Whats that fat thing in the middle?

Click here to watch the video

It took 20 minutes for us to down it. We had several contacts with the Alliance during the battle. Especially this rogue kept bugging on us for whole fight, yet he didn't kill any of us. Zyredox hunted him down few times getting us some extra honor! Tyrande rewarded 611 honor per arse and dropped 100g.

I must warn you that this video looks pretty naked.
Didn't add any color adjust effects or any other as I normally do.

 Immortal no more

Faction Leaders too easy? 4-Man Darnassus, 5man Exodar.

Another devoted soul has joined our ranks! With this new adjustment, our member population was increased by 50%!  Thanks to our newest member: Stickylol. Yet, another Blood elf rogue to join our ranks. Maybe I should let only hot belf females in the guild.. Hmh.. Anywho, we had countless fun moments at the Magic Quarter with, as usual. Oh, Zyredox the Auction house Overseer was with us of course.

No mercy was shared as usual. We got a good pile of skeletons there.

Keybinds

As requested, im publishing my messy keybinds now. The 2 last bars come active while in cat/dire bear form. As for macros, I use pretty simple "Target focus -> Cast spell -> last target" -macro for innervate, FF, bear charge, roots, cyclone & hibernate. And of course I have macros for Shred to be replaced with Ravage while prowling etc.. Druid Macros

  

And what about Faction Leaders?

 

It just came into our minds to do something else for than just MQ hunt for a change.. "Lets solo a FL?" ..and so we did. Well, not solo but Tyrande went down 4man. 2 rogues (Zyredox, Stickylol), 2 druids (Fnyx + Poostomp). I tanked the whole thing in my PvE DPS gear & PvP talents and Fnyx had no problem keeping me alive. Hell, he even went bear and DPS'd once in a while. 

 It took around 15-20 minutes of pure DPS for us to down her and we didn't meet a single ally during our visit in Darnassus. Not even lowbies. But who could have thod, even if theres "Darnass under attack!" spam going on in the world defense, that someone's killing the FL 'cus usually theres peeps running all around the town during those raids. Well, not to mention, Darnassus is possible the easiest town to raid. And yet, you fairly often see in [For the Horde!] raids that the "good plan" is to go Darnassus/Exodar first, cus they are the easiest. I mean, WTH? While you are doing these two easy towns, people will notice and get informed that theres a raid on the move and it will come to SW and no doubt the next target that is IF. After downing SW FL and losing part of the raid people head to the tram. And once in IF theres a whole bunch of Alliance waiting at the tinker. And if not, theres always someone who manages to pull the Tinker and pulling it to Magni. Amairite? Oh, anywho, about Exodar:

Exodar slightly more exciting than Darnassus. We had to kill a mage during the fight and I figured out (first time tanking FLs) that Prophet of Velen actually does something more than just stands there dealing shitty damage. He had this knockback, similiar to Thunderstorm but only me (note: tank) got hit by it. After that, he resetted aggro or just changed target for a while. (I dont know, I dont have aggro meter). This fight took about 10-15 minutes, probably 'cause Zyredox equipped PVE gear and Ayapan joined us.

 Fnyx enjoying hot hardcore mutilate action.

Another great triumph for ITS MY MAGETOWER NOW. We surely will be organizing more of these small FL raids. But when it comes to the fact that you can 4man a faction leader.. To be honest, we'd 2manned it with Fnyx but would have taken a looong while for me to alone deal 5000k dmg in bear form. I suppose Blizzard rely on the opposite faction to be defending once these raids occur. the FL dealt absolutely no damage. In my humble opinion, these bosses should be buffed alot and increase the rewards like hell. A faction leader drops +70g and rewards ~2000 honor which are shared within the raid. Everybody knows that usually these raids are ~40man. Thats worth one HK of honor for a faction leader. Not worth the trouble, really. Anywho, I'm sure that im not the only one who had a blast with this new experience. I would have provided some video material but my settings were messed up and fraps lowered my DPS to ~5.

Fnyx, Ayapan, Moostomp, Stickylol, Emodox on the beach next to Exodar.
