Is there anything more pitiful and/or annoying than running through a low level zone and accumulating a swarm of low-level grey mobs? It’s like, dudes, I’m just here to get some Goldthorn to level Alchemy, go away.
And then they DAZE YOU and DISMOUNT YOU and suddenly you’re knee-deep in a sea of blood and linen cloth.
For some reason, the Kill Bill club fight scene comes to mind here.
HAh! Good old rock! Loved this one 😀
Hehehe, poor lowbie bad guys
Ok, lessee here, from left to right:
– Obsidian Edged Blade (Garr, usually, Molten Core)
– Coldrage Dagger (Razorfen Downs, or same model with a different name, or, possibly, Cross Pommel Dagger, a green drop from Outland)
– Blackhand Doomsaw (Rend Blackhand, UBRS) or Lantressor’s Warblade (Outland quest reward in Nagrand from Lantressor)
– The Tranquilizer (quest reward from Calming the Kodo, Desolace)
– Barbarous Blade (King Gordok, Dire Maul)
– Dreadlord’s Blade (Mal’ganis, Culling of Stratholme)
– Icier Barbed Spear (actually a halberd, one of the rewards from the last fight in the Amphitheatre of Anguish in Zul’Drak.)
Have I mentioned I’m a transmog junkie? And that I have a DK, three paladins and a ton of warriors?
Recognized all the blades right away except the dagger. Had to look up the name of the Tranquilizer though, since I just recognized the model and not the name.
Still unsure about the dagger. Only have one rogue that I don’t play much.
Very curious if this is just showing off some weapons from WoW or if there are deliberate hints at Four’s past in that arsenal…
Also, what are the Defias doing in Deadwind Pass? Pushed out of Elwynn and Duskwood by the guards/Night Watch/adventurers?
*awe*
*notworthy*
O.O
You know, we wanted to pick recognizable weapons, and apparently they were exactly that! You got all the weapons right except the dagger, and the dagger is sort of a trick question because it wasn’t actually modeled after an in-game weapon. 😉
As for whether they mean anything? Not directly, but I will point out some commonality in where they drop from, with the additional bit of info that the halberd was actually modeled after the House Wrynn Halberd (which is the same model as the Icier Barbed Spear).
House Wrynn Halberd? That is a quest reward for the final quest in the Vanessa Van Cleef questline in Westfall, isn’t it? I’ve usually picked the claymore as a reward there because I like the model. And before 5.2 there weren’t really any strength polearms around.
The reason I thought it was the Icier Barbed Spear is because it would fit with Four’s prizefighter career thing.
Though it’s possible that started with the Brawler’s Guild I suppose.
Well. There’s Blackrock Mountain from EK. And the Desolace/Feralas/Tanaris (Caverns of Time) link from Kalimdor could point to a Stonemaul, or possibly Dunemaul, connection.
Unless she’s a rebelling/exiled Gordok ogre.
So many possibilities. 🙂
I like the Tranquilizer btw, becuase it’s a cool model as well as a unique one. My only gripe with it is the green colour which makes it very hard to match with any armor sets.
Where those Defias Rogues? Isn’t that like lv 9-20 isn give or take a few lvs…?
This page takes place in Deadwind Pass, on the rocky bridge that you travel over going from Duskwood to Swamp of Sorrows! The Defias aren’t *typically* found here…but we’re not that far from Westfall and there IS only one path through the Pass. It’s a good spot for an ambush!
haha, love this.
