WoW: Instant Frustration in Instances.
Last night downed Kel’thuzad for the first time on 10 man, interesting fight, very mana intensive. I stayed with my frost build, I actually didn’t do too bad. Just right behind the Warlock barely in DPS. We downed him…and I got nothing. But thats ok, a guildie who needed tier 7 got it. I really didn’t need it at all. I got the Cowl of Vanity which I think even though it looks ugly as hell is better then the tier 7 helm for a mage.
So that being quick, me and a few guildies wanted to do Kara real quick to try to get Mongoose Enchant, we heard it’s 100% chance to drop off Moroes now, and maybe the Attumen horse mount. We try to enter we get something to the tune, I don’t remember exact wording but it was like “Additional Instances cannot be started, please try again”
We tried, and tried, and after 40 minutes we gave up. This is really aggravating if I can’t do what I want in an MMO, like run an instance. Why am I paying them? I was very angry.
So I took it out on Darkshire. Funny thing happened a priest that I saw the other day I was wiping Southshore out, showed up. In Southshore we wiped the Alliance good. I wonder if he is an self proclaimed protector. He got me in Darkshire, to be honest I’m not a PvP mage. My skills are concentrated for raiding, though that might change. I am thinking of doing a PvP spec, and see how I fair, plus I have no resilience. I just thought it was very interesting that I saw the same priest two times in a row. Maybe I’ll take out another random alliance town, see if he shows up.
In other slightly less interesting news the Ferraro drama is still going here’s a reply to all of this from the girl who s/he stole the pictures from. Maybe she is the same person, and this drama is all made up to increase visibility or something. What I know is the Internet is filled with liars, one more or less is not going to change things.

No additional instances may be launched message is one of the reasons we took a free transfer when we could back in February. Nearly the whole guild made the server transfer. It was free after all.
On our new very much less populated server we have yet to see that horrifying message. Fortunately, all the cloth we brought over then sold like hotcakes too since it was lower pop.
Sorry about the bad instance luck. Someone else told me of a similar thing the other night on their server, which is also high pop.

Just thinking of the words “Additional instances cannot be launched” or what it now is that it says, really makes me love how I’m playing on a medium population server. Banging your head against that message for too long just hurts your sanity.
And idd, Cowl of Vanity is a great head. I’m still stuck with it, until I get enough badges for my T8.5. (Ain’t been that lucky with head drops in Ulduar.)
