Around Azeroth: The most adorable mauling

Around Azeroth The most adorable mauling THURSDAY
Oh, sure, this picture looks all cute and funny. The silly panda bear is being tickled by the tiny dinosaur hatchlings! Look at her laugh! But what you may not remember is that these are genetically modified super-intelligent raptors. Which means that their mouths are filled with extraordinarily advanced bacteria. After this was taken, submitter Máyumi of Area 52 (US-H) had to spend two weeks under quarantine in a Horde field hospital receiving intravenous antibiotics just so she wouldn't spread the next Black Plague. Such pain for a simple screenshot!

Around Azeroth: Will the circle be unbroken

Around Azeroth Will the circle be unbroken WEDNESDAY
It's the Songbird! Kill it! Kill it with a shotgun! Wait, no, it's just Aranela of Dark Democracy on Durotan (US-H) showing off some of the new fight mechanics in the Roost of Ji-Kun. That's what I get for playing BioShock Infinite at three in the morning. Note to self: after midnight, only play Lego Harry Potter or something equally happy-happy-joy-joy if I ever want to fall asleep again. This is why I never finished Dead Space 2.

Around Azeroth: Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti

Around Azeroth Mynd you, mse bites Kan be pretty nasti TUESDAY
The druids are revolting! And no, it's not just the rogues losing out on the +agi leather gear that are saying that for once. Submitter Ben and his fellow moose/elk/stag/whatever druids are outraged at the Horde's unjust treatment of Alliance druids. Sure, being killed by the opposing faction is one thing, but being captured, sedated, and forced to provide rides to small orc children at Brewfest is something else entirely. So they've stolen a group of gyrocopters and set off to bomb some Horde ships. Except, as they quickly found out, hooves can't reliably operate the controls of an aircraft, and shapeshifting in midair leads to a quick and splattery death. So much for the druid rebellion.

Around Azeroth: If at first you don't succeed

Around Azeroth If at first you don't succeed MONDAY
Come see the giant mystery hole! Observe the wonders of the universe! But don't try to jump in. A young draenei lady, later identified through dental records as Korranne of Azeroth Social Society on Alterac Mountains (US-A), had trouble heeding this warning. After her first attempt ended in a fatal impact with the safety rail, she didn't even wait for her skeleton to fade away before giving it another try. But maybe the third time's the charm. She'll have to wait for her rez timer to be up before she can find out.

Around Azeroth: Object impermanence

by Elizabeth Wachowski Mar 31st 2013 at 10:00AM

Around Azeroth Object impermanence SUNDAY
"If you do any kind of group content, you know about line of sight pulls," writes submitter Gimmlette of Spectacular Death on Llane (US-A). "Generally, the tank bonks a mob or group of mobs on the head and runs around the corner, out of sight, to get them to come to him. Everyone else stays away and just unloads once the tank has the mobs."

"Spectacular Death decided to apply that principle to the Primal Devilsaur guarding the troll boat on the Isle of Giants. They had cleared the boat to the top and then came back down to find the dino waiting for them outside. Warriorjoe volunteered to pull the dino. What could do wrong? Joe would just stay around the corner where the dino can't get him."

"After Joe was flattened, the dino went after Reckittmama, Hyperstoic, Mtwohb and Minaithelan. Guild leader Gimmlette agreed with Joe's comment, 'We're gonna need a bigger boat.'"

Around Azeroth: Stolen moments

by Elizabeth Wachowski Mar 30th 2013 at 10:00AM

Around Azeroth Stolen moments SATURDAY
Submitter Anastarian of Altered Reality on Moon Guard (US-H) wanted to spend some time alone with his girlfriend. But sadly, they found every available bedroom, secluded overlook, isolated beach and coat check room in Northrend occupied. So they snuck out to the floor of Grizzlemaw for some cuddling, an activity mimicked by their pet phoenix. (Phoenixes? Phoenices? Well, it makes sense that phoenix wouldn't need a plural form.)

Around Azeroth: Thunderstruck

by Elizabeth Wachowski Mar 29th 2013 at 10:00AM

Around Azeroth Thunderstruck FRIDAY
"I became obsessed with capturing images of the the lightning strikes on the Isle of Thunder the other night," writes submitter Captmoocher of Borrowed Time on Bleeding Hollow (US-H). "Out of over a hundred images, only a few actually had lightning in them and then even fewer showed it's full intensity. This one was by far the best. Arcweaver Jor'guva appears to be channeling the fury of the Thunder King to rip the ground asunder." Amongst the dead trees, the smoldering remains of a thousand charred golfers bear testament to your mom's advice: always go inside during a severe thunderstorm warning.

Around Azeroth: A drive-by cursing

Around Azeroth A driveby cursing THURSDAY
Submitter Evolevort of The Dawn Watch on Wyrmrest Accord (US-A) just couldn't be bothered to deal with the hassle of dismounting to kill enemies in the Borean Tundra. That was so, like, two expansions ago! Instead, he figured out a way to shadowbolt his opponents to death without ever leaving his horse. Afterwards, he swung by Valiance Keep so he could show off his super-evil outfit to all the barmaids. Ladies, he's single!

Around Azeroth: We're fools to make war on our brothers in arms

by Elizabeth Wachowski Mar 27th 2013 at 10:00AM

Around Azeroth We're fools to make war on our brothers in arms WEDNESDAY
"I saw Ferdinand relaxing next to a tree today, and I thought to myself, 'He sure looks lonely,'" writes submitter Maegina of The Byrd House on Ghostlands (US-H). "I just happened to have packed a nice picnic basket, so I asked him if he would like to share my lunch. We started talking and after a few minutes poor Ferdinand started telling me his life story. It was heart-wrenching. He likes to come down to the orchard to enjoy the wildlife and to meditate in this peaceful and beautiful setting. He said that it helps him to get back in touch with his roots."

"Well, to make a long story short, it never fails that as soon as he starts to become one with the universe, someone comes along and picks a fight to the death. More times than not, it's poor Ferdinand that ends up dead. It's not Ferdinand's fault. He's just happens to be one of those rare citizens of Pandaria that everyone feels the 'glorious' need to kill."

"So the next time you wander by the The Arboretum and you see Ferdinand sitting under that tree, please be kind enough to sit and chat a little or even share your lunch with him before you kill him. It's no bull: everyone needs a friend."

Around Azeroth: Wile E. Coyote style

Around Azeroth Wile E Coyote style TUESDAY
"I was giving a guildie a ride to a Black Temple farm run when we flew over the chasm between Blade's Edge Mountains and Netherstorm," writes submitter Neffi of Reckoning on Wyrmrest Accord (US-H). "Apparently we cross-realm shifted in-between zones, and the game disconnected him, knocking him right off my saddle. While he was disconnecting, he stood there in mid-air à la Wile E. Coyote. When he managed to get logged back in a few seconds later, there was a pause -- and then he plummeted to his death, frantically bubbling the whole way down. What we took away from this is: Two person mounts + cross realm zone = bad."

Around Azeroth: She's only a bird in a gilded cage

Around Azeroth She's only a bird in a gilded cage MONDAY
Sure, everyone thinks that the battle pets are the ones in cages. But maybe it's the hunters that are in cages, man! Society's cages of conformity! Wait ... on further inspection of this picture, I guess it's the battle pets in cages. Hmm. So we're making innocent animals fight each other, then removing them from the wild and putting them in cages with a hundred other animals? The battle pet system is a lot darker than I thought. (Thanks to Anton for the screenshot!)

Around Azeroth Catch me if you can SUNDAY
Please don't taunt the immobile sha. "I'd just hit 90 on my gnome alt, and I was flying around the Summit to catch up on mining," writes submitter Whistlecheek of Gnomeregan Forever on Wyrmrest Accord (US-A). "I found myself face to face with the Sha of Anger, who looked surprised and amazed, then angry that a little pink-haired gnome was daring to get into his face. I must've really surprised him, because I was able to get right up next to him ... until I flew through his belly. Yeah. That's when I found out a) Shanger is really ticklish, b) really, REALLY ticklish, and c) he hates cute pink-haired gnomes who discover that fact."

Around Azeroth Hey, come out and play SATURDAY
Submitter Brandon and a large group of wannabe dino-killers on Thrall (US) got tired of waiting for Galleon to spawn, so they decided to speed it up with the eldritch magic of a proto-drake circle. Galleon did indeed appear shortly thereafter, but after seeing the mass of dragons arrayed against him, he hearthed back to wherever he came from and called Oondasta to come to the scene for some backup. And then everyone died.

Around Azeroth: Girls with low self-esteem

Around Azeroth Girls with low selfesteem FRIDAY
It's been a while since we've featured bad in-game interior design here on Around Azeroth. After the goblin decorating fiascos of Cataclysm, there was really nothing uglier to design, although the Velvet Elvis of Icecrown still holds a special place in my heart. This painting of a scantily clad woman holding a fan is actually not too bad, but submitter Nounours of Spectacular Death on Llane (US-A) doesn't seem too fond of it. Maybe she thinks that the model's lack of body hair promotes unrealistic body image standards for worgen ladies. Real women have top hats!

Around Azeroth: Beyond the veil

Around Azeroth Beyond the veil THURSDAY
After submitter Daenerys of Khaz Modan (US-H) lost her beloved husband-to-be in a tragic blimp accident over Loch Modan, she thought she would never see him again. But when Lorewalker Cho pulled up the images of the blood elf people during a quest in the Jade Forest, she was able to say a proper goodbye. At least until she looked slightly to her right and realized that he had spent the afterlife hooking up with her identical ghost-twin. One full-on Maury style slapfest, coming right up!
