I don't know why but I could swear it was a Feat of Strength. Regardless, I'm happy that I haven't spent the last 3 days camping Wetlands for nothing.<br />
It all happened at around 15:30 server time, I was alt-tabbed and heard some serious music swelling with a very dark tone. I was so excited my hand was shaking as I clicked back into the game.<br />
By the way, have you noticed how nobody took good pictures of this thing? I swore I would be the guy that does it proper if given the chance. Well...<br />

I probably had 30 seconds to take a picture before it was too late. Unfortunately I panicked so hard that it was finally happening that I only did it when I was already dead. At least I got Deathwing in the 2nd picture.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">I'm glad it happened because I was beginning to doubt this camping method. It didn't involve much work on my part, I just alt-tabbed in and out while writing stuff and browsing the net. Guess it pays out to set goals and go for them even when you're just doing it in a game. And I got the achievement to prove it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I've been camping Wetlands all day today and the better part of yesterday. No sign of metal chin so far. Only sounds of frogs croaking and this new music which, I have to say, is quite decent. It made me alt-tab in quick a few times when it started swelling.<br />
"This must be it", I thought to myself "he's gonna torch the shit out of me in a second". No such luck... well not yet that is.<br />

Had a few visitors, even a couple of alliance folks. This server has so few Alliance characters on it that even seeing one should be a Feat of Strength. One of them killed me while I was away.. I ain't mad though, I would've probably done the same. Especially since he was a rogue. For some reason there's no rogue camaraderie at all, if I go in a battleground they're one of my first targets cause I know how to kill them easily.<br />
Gonna end this here before it turns into a rogue QQ post. Cya next time, with hopefully better news.</div>Casual Elitisthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13544664144135493292noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1480630629799129991.post-71141054255127050132010-11-28T08:11:00.000-08:002010-11-28T08:11:37.319-08:00Getting the Killed by Deathwing Achievement - Camping in WetlandsCamping in Wetlands waiting to get killed by Deathwing Achievement or Stood in the Fire as it's called. I got to say this might take a while according to what I've read on the US forums. Figured I didn't have much to lose since I'm at my computer all day so I started researching for good camp locations. Most people point out the following zones:<br />
<ul><li>Wetlands (very popular due to the video as well)</li>
<li>Tanaris</li>
<li>Southern Barrens</li>
<li>Plaguelands (one of the two, might be Western)</li>
<li>Stonetalon Mountains</li>
</ul>I'm going with Wetlands because it's the one I have <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CLSnc-vB0U">hard evidence</a> of. After scrutinizing the video I realized that the guy flew from somewhere south of Dun Modr to Swiftgear Station. The most noticeable landmark is that windmill and judging from where the flames are I decided to position myself here.<br />

I mean he wouldn't just call something a FoS without making it at least moderately engaging, right?! I don't know, the way they dish these achievements lately is pretty laughable... "oh you logged in during the Elemental Invasion Timmy?", "here's a badge of honor". Anyway I got it and I got pics to prove it.<br />

That's how I roll.</i></blockquote><div style="text-align: left;"> </div></div>Speaking of disappointments what did you think of the Elemental Invasion? Couldn't hold a pale candle next to the zombie invasion last expansion. I guess all the QQ-ing payed off and they decided to not bother casuals with fun stuff, instead let them do Tripping the Rifts feats of strength by afk-ing in Orgrimmar. Orgrimmar, Stormwind whatever I'm Horde so I'm biased.<br />
<br />
One good thing did happen though, I got my Goblin Trike. Before you ask me how please do a bit of research, let's just say it involved 7 dwarves and I'm not talking about Snow White.<br />

Maybe I'll get that killed by Deathwing achievement, cause from what I heard unlike Tripping the Rifts that's... you know "hard".
