Around Azeroth: Missed the boat
I guess discrimination against Death Knights doesn't end after the vendors stop throwing fruit and trying to lynch you. Dolohov of <Court of the Ruby Grail> on Maelstrom was simply riding around trying to get his World Explorer achievement when he was unceremoniously ejected from Ratchet. Unable to go back on shore or board the boat, he had no choice but to huddle on some overturned cargo until his hearthstone was up. Luckily, Frost Presence managed to help stave off hypothermia. Next time you go hang out in a major city, Dolohov, may I suggest some Engineering goggles? They hide those creepy blue eyes quite well.
(Actually, Dolohov just snapped this shot while taking a shortcut from Ratchet to Tanaris via Path of Frost. Thanks for the submission, Dolohov!)

Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.Filed under: Screenshots, Around Azeroth, Galleries

Title is either a possible reference to a modest mouse song ("missed the boat", is an amazing song), or is just use of the phrase. Either way, that song popped into my head when I saw it.
Good picture too.

Ah yes, the "Theramore Transfer" we used to call it (swimming, or after TBC, water walking) to get the FP in Tanaris.
Why did he have to walk though when DKs should have the FPs

Just what I was wondering. How is water-walking ANY kind of "shortcut" between Ratchet and Tanaris? Especially for a death knight who automatically has all the old-world flight paths.

I needed to grab Northwatch Hold along the way. Plus, I wasn't focusing on efficiency while doing the achievement. Ratchet to Tanaris via the sea was much more interesting than the flight that I've probably seen a few dozen times before.
