Recent Gaming Endeavours

And that title of course means what I’ve done recently in WoW.

I hit 75 last Sunday night and that felt good because now I finally have the shadowpriest ability that allows me to do massive AoE damage while still in shadowform. Since 65 I’ve increased my haste and SP considerably but I’ve dropped about 10% in crit chance. Now I get more consistent damage which is nice. Here is my Apocryphai’s stats if you want to check them out, I’m a Blood Elf Shadowpriest on Mug’Thol.

Started This Work Term

So I started work almost 3 weeks ago now. The first day was boring. Really, really boring. It was basically lectures and a bit of paperwork end to end. And the lectures were not relevant to the work I was doing at all. Imagine you’re at any company, any company at all, and you have network guys who actually only deal with one other company (which is owned by your company) that is unrelated to all the work they do. Now you decide to tell them all about the other stuff you do. It really doesn’t matter at all, I couldn’t care less if you slaughter baby seals if all I’m doing is moving files onto a server.

Finally done playing Diablo 2

After 8 and a half year and 3-4000 hours of playing on at least 5 computers I’m done with Diablo 2. And I know it’s final this time because I’ve had my CD-Keys banned and I’m not buying a third set.

Oh no I got my CD-Keys banned? Diablo 2 is the kind of game where a large number of users have, at least at one point in time, use some sort of maphack at the very least. In most games a maphack would be useless but Diablo 2 had randomly generated maps every time you join or made a new game in multiplayer. There were discernible patterns that I picked up on after playing for a long time but that is not nearly as sweet as pressing 1 on the numpad and teleporting to the next level faster than humanly possibly.
