I started out writing this post as an observation on how players were interacting after 2.4, how the level of co-operation was going up a little and, hopefully, would continue to do so. Whilst I was thinking on it, though, I realised it had more than just the effects I had originally fixated on - thus I have decided to document at least a few of the changes I think 2.4 has had whether they are possibly fleeting or long lasting.

Bloody hell it isn’t half busy at the upper-end o’ Azeroth. Seems everyone is keen on getting in on the action and helpin’ out wi’ the new offensive.

So, like just about everyone else on the wow-blogosphere, I have been participating in the shiny-newness that is patch 2.4.

Haud’ on tight, we’re goin fer a ride on the back o’ a dragon. This is the life, wheee!

I got my Netherdrake a week or two back but never really got around to mentioning it (it’s my second character to get one so I guess it’s not quite as exciting).

Shame that I couldn’t zoom out further to catch the tail…

Epic flying mount! Finally! The biggest ’setback’ I felt when I changed back to my rogue wasn’t the ten levels and gearing up I had to do but the lack of an epic flying mount. I know a lot of people see it as a waste of time to get an epic flyer, not to mention a waste of gold, but I feel it’s well worth it.At the most basic level it opens up some new soloable daily quests - until now I had about 7 or 8 I could reliably do daily by myself - Two at the Skyguard Outpost in Terrokkar, two in the Blade’s Edge Mountain base, two at Ogri’la, the cooking daily and, sometimes, the pvp daily.
