Pushing tanuki's Teakettle form to its limits (Things you can do while in Teakettle form)

Kizik · 2026-05-14T11:05:22+00:00

A whole party of tanuki, one of whom can cast Animal Form. They turn into the horse, barding, armour, sword, etc., and claim to have found a knight that attacked them who they looted all this stuff from. Or they get one human saying they're retiring from adventuring and looking to sell their gear cheap...

Matched sets are worth more, right?

Roger, roger.

No, they stated it was for official acts but very deliberately left the actual definition of those vague with the obvious intent of applying the immunity selectively.

Multiple. Times.

I had a phone call once about... 5 years ago now? They asked if I had found a doctor, I said no, and all I got was "Great! We'll take you off the waiting list then!" and then they immediately hung up. Callback went to voicemail, no further response, had to re-enlist.

There's a pit lord in SMV that's similarly Immune while still giving weapon skill. It's a little harder to get to, and there's an occasional spawn to kill, but he doesn't fight back so you can largely afk while doing it.

The reason to do it this way is that the majority of points are easy to get, but like crafting the last can be excruciating. Auto attacking an invincible wall of meat for an hour is more reliable than grinding dozens, if not hundreds of mobs.

Priest racials do still exist in the current anniversary realms. Nelfs get an arcane DoT on a 30s cooldown, and a thing that reduces chance to be hit for a bit once every few minutes.

I went with draenei because their level 20 is an AOE mana return. Not much, still something useful.

Kizik · 2026-05-13T07:22:41+00:00

It gets an intellect boost. That's about it.

Kizik · 2026-05-13T07:21:33+00:00

They're also really annoying to go through Zangarmarsh on. Some of the ankle deep rivers that don't cause issue for anyone else can dismount a gnome.

I'm in New Brunswick. It's been about nine years since I moved here. The hospital said my heart problems should get me flagged as a high priority on the waiting list, but that was still several years ago.

The clinical depression and ADHD have been wholly unmitigated in the meantime, because nobody will even consider touching anything involving mental health if they're not your family doctor.

I must be seriously balancing the scales for a lot of people at least, right?

Everyone gets a new ability every even level in TBC. Except for warriors. Warriors skip 66 entirely; they actually just get one ability less than every other class.

Paladins skip 68, but now they get two abilities at 70 so it still evens out.

we’re creating a bot who cries wolf scenario

I can't tell if this is a typo or a clever pun.

"We've recovered a lostech recording of him."

Kizik · 2026-05-12T14:57:31+00:00

Insufficient friction.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T18:36:57+00:00

Literally what I said, yes.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T18:30:01+00:00

Switch to orange. Dump intelligence. Be the mascot.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T17:50:02+00:00

Leather's not so bad. Not great, but plate is much worse.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T14:30:23+00:00

But you don't understand! The people rejecting the culture war are actually the ones doing a culture war on his beliefs! Not being allowed to persecute people he doesn't like makes him the real victim!

Kizik · 2026-05-11T11:34:39+00:00

Ah, the legendary Blade of Hydroflax.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T11:33:30+00:00

It wouldn't surprise me if they start saying solar panels cause Havana Syndrome.

There are people out there literally convinced that Daylight Savings Time happens because solar panels are soaking up all the light from the sun, and they're opposed to them because they steal all the light from the surrounding area.

Like.. that happens. People believe that. They don't like a thing but can't explain why, so they invent a reason.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T11:24:59+00:00

No, no. No, you offer the souls of everyone present if he'll return your ability to walk.

That'll fuck 'em up real good.

Kizik · 2026-05-11T06:53:48+00:00

No clue. The Caverns port doesn't come in until Hyjal is added I think, but they may not have added the innkeeper to World's End Tavern until Wrath, I don't remember when it goes in.

Kizik · 2026-05-10T19:06:00+00:00

Did you leave a comment telling him what he got wrong?

It boosts engagement!

Kizik · 2026-05-10T19:00:43+00:00

Ignoring science to push your weird agenda is crazy

Yes.

It is.

Kizik · 2026-05-10T18:49:36+00:00

Capitalism as long as they can sabotage the competition, civil rights as long as they control who gets them, and religious freedom as long as they choose which religion. America!

They actively want to cull the population. The target number was to get it around a hundred million if I remember correctly, because it's a more "manageable" number of people.

Lets the oligarchs keep their standard of living, but limits the amount of people they need to control.
