A HUGE Change… for me at least.
I pulled the trigger…
4 Teh HORDE!
My application to Requiem on Drenden was accepted I have Faction changed to take advantage of the opportunity. At $30.00 this choice is not for the faint of heart and there was some inventory adjustments and what not I had to make with my alts to try and limit the in game gold impact this is going to have on my character/s. I am leaving behind 3 other level 85 toons and my budding rogue that has maxed LW so I am definately going to spending a little more than usual in the future.
Just to let everyone know I was driven to move for 2 reasons.
1. I want to keep raiding. I want to keep raiding with the same guild and I believe Requiem will be around a while.
2. I want to raid after 10PM EST. My youngest child is asleep by 9:30PM and typically so is my wife and daughter. This will leaving me just to contend with our new kitten and she has a very small agro radius.
For now, as I said all my other toons are still Alliance in With Feeling. At $30.00 per character to Faction change I will decide later who makes the move with me down the line and who stays Alliance to play with old friends.
So far I am loving being a big cow! I have never liked the scale of the Night Elf especially on mounts. I struggled with going Troll, because of the nice little DPS perk in the Berserk racial, but I just couldn’t do it. I don’t really want to be a bat, I don’t like the dance, and I just don’t dig any of the Troll lore, especially as a Druid. If a 10 second buff to attack speed every 3 minutes makes or breaks me or a raid I need to just pack it up now.
I look forward to my actual invite to Requiem (no officers on atm) and check back for a new page redesign for my site that better reflects my new alignment.
P.S. I am bummed I lost a bunch of achievement points somewhere in the conversion but whatcha going to do… T.T



Oh what a change! But the tauren feral models are really well done! I love the tan cat with purple eyes.
Anyway, best of luck in your new home/guild/raiding place, and looking forward to hearing about how it’s going.

War stomp trumps all … I have found it useful in sooo many ways as feral and resto in both pvp and pve.
welcome to the joy of taurenhood.
If you’ve lost some achievement points, most likely they’re the ones related to the Argent Tournament, some loremaster ones (related to the Alliance-only lowbie zones, cause those don’t have a direct equivalent), and quest completion credit for certain zones (due to some quests being Alliance-only or Horde-only). Those are the only ones that gave me issues when I faction changed previously.
Btw, the top of the Tauren totem poles is my favorite Storm Crow perching spot too heh.
Thanks all for the well wishes and comments!
