WoW WotLK

It’s finally here, World of Warcraft’s second expansion, The Wrath of the Lich King. I picked up the limited edition package with the mouse pad, dvd installer (I hated reinserting those CDs), behind the scenes DVD, art book and an in-game pet. I figured might as well pay the extra $ since I had some gift certificates to use up.

I’ve played about an hour of it so far earlier. I got my Death Knight made. You must have an available character slot in order to create one. You start off in Eastern Plaguelands at level 55. I’ve done a couple of quests with her already. A mount can be summoned once you complete a chain quest (2).

After messing with that, I changed on to my Paladin toon and did a couple of quests in the new lands. Some of the green gear I saw as rewards will already replace any existing blue gear you have.

So now I’m home and have installed it on my iMac and I come to this…

I captured the image 30 minutes after I logged in… and still waiting. This is worse than when The Burning Crusade expansion came out. Oh well…
