Reunited And It Feels So Stabby

Posted on September 19, 2017 by NjessiSeptember 19, 2017

Guess who I ran into on Iokath?  That’s right, my bestie, Quinn!

He looks so sad while he apologizes profusely for being a jackass.

Shae Vizla Hair Is Failsauce

Posted on September 5, 2017 by NjessiSeptember 5, 2017

I was stalking the Shae Vizla hair since I first laid eyes on her – and then Kora, the mechanic, had that hair in KOTFE, reinforcing that I must have it.

Well, I got it and it was a huge disappointment!  Fair warning to all of you.

First, it clips with everything.  Any sort of collar, any tiny shoulder embellishment, any thick jacket, clip!  Any head turning… clip!

Second, it often does weird shit with healing, stealthing, or combat animations.  And, well, that’s kind of what I do.

So I got the Lana hair as soon as it came out.  It may have weird color fade on top, and I was about to overlook it and move on with my life – except I totally made it work for me!  Really light blue hair turns to white-with-blue-tips which looks totally intentional.

Don’t act like you’re not impressed.

Quinn, My Bestie, Where Are You?

Posted on August 23, 2017 by NjessiAugust 23, 2017

I was quite giddy about the thought of choking Quinn again… and again… and again… ahem, I’ll stop now.  Imagine my disappointment when I get to the end of KOTET and I haven’t seen him yet.

Well, I was trying to get away with no spoilers, but I needed some guidance.  Alliance alerts?  Nope.  Turns out I have to go to Iokath.

To my intense relief, the Iokath part is voiced.  I don’t think I could deal with choking Quinn in mute-classic-convo mode.

Onward to… ugh, shit, do dailies?  I hate dailies.  But I hate Quinn more.  Chokey chokey.

As a side note: “Where have you been?” Work is so fail.  Cuts into my gaming time.  Ugh.

Fashion Police: PUG Edition

Posted on June 29, 2017 by NjessiJuly 25, 2017

Lately, I’ve been vindicated in my theory that you know you’re in deep shit when your pug person shows up in a bikini or something similar.

First, we have Mellons For Hire:

“Lol,” she says dismissively, “you’re using a pylon solver for EV story mode?!”

Good thing we did, because her dps was abysmal and we would have been screwed if the fight had dragged on any longer than necessary.

Later, we come across “Lucky” Loni… as in she’s lucky she ever gets any groups.

Sometimes healers assist with DPS when there isn’t much to do.  However, a healer pulling? REPEATEDLY?  Oh hell no.

So when the new tank shows up sporting some serious underboob, I facepalm and know I’m in for a “fun” time.

Teaching The Next Generation About The Hall Of Shame

Posted on June 28, 2017 by NjessiJuly 25, 2017

Fun Fact: the Nar Shaddaa gambling event is a great way to come upon terrible fashion.

“Mom! Mom!” shrieks Little Jedi.  “That lady is wearing the most ridiculous outfit!  I mean, it doesn’t even cover her organs!  She’s gonna get STABBED!!”

Me: “While I agree that this outfit is stupid, I only take pictures of the really egregious examples, or the Hall of Shame would fill up too quickly.  That one isn’t actually that bad.  There are way worse outfits out there.”

Me: “Like that guy…”

LJ: “Oh my god.”

Me: “Or those idiots – damn they’re hiding behind a machine.”

LJ: “What are they even doing? What kind of dumb name is that?”

LJ: “Come over here!  Quick!  Take a picture of this moron!”

Me: “I just threw up in my mouth.”

No, Don’t Nerf Baldy!

Posted on June 23, 2017 by NjessiJune 23, 2017

Owch, the nerf bat, it hurts so baaad.  Poor Baldy.  Just as I thought I might yoink her out of retirement… nope.

Serious baldy is sad. But the hat is awesome.

If you haven’t seen the Healing Sorc/Sage changes, go read about it on Dulfy.  I’ll wait.

(Insert Elevator Music Here)

Don’t get distracted by bad fashion. Maybe go check it out later.

 

Oh you’re back, good.  Now you can see how they nerfed sorc healers into the ground.

But don’t worry.  They assure us that they are going to nerf all the other healers into the ground too.

We say the target HPS instead of their target HPS because all three healers have the same target HPS. In future balance patches, the other healers can expect to see changes to their healing capabilities as well to ensure they are in line with the target.

Joy.  We’re all getting nerfed.  You know what that means…

DPS, step your shit up!  We will no longer be able to compensate for standing in bad, missed interrupts, or failure to self-cleanse.

Gambling For Fun And Most Definitely Not Profit

Posted on June 21, 2017 by NjessiJune 21, 2017

I find the Nar Shaddaa nightlife event painful and boring.  I spent a grueling hour there in order to obtain two legacy weapons and swore I wouldn’t go back.

Then Little Jedi wanted to go.  And, of course, spend my credits.  Ugh, fine.

She loves it.  I’m worried about the future if she’s actually enjoying gambling.  “Don’t you want to go… kill something?”  “Nah, mom, I’m cool.  I want that dance floor.”

In keeping her company, I ended up with enough tokens for the dance floor.  Since she basically lives at my stronghold, I figure she’ll get to use it.

Well, apparently someone woke up at 5am the next morning and ground out some more golden tickets and now is the proud owner of a dance floor and microphone stand. She’s now saving up for that sweet mount with the fin on the back.

I have inadvertently created a monster.

Little Jedi’s Little Bounty Hunter

Posted on June 16, 2017 by NjessiJune 16, 2017

Little Jedi has started a bounty hunter.  Watch out, world.

Unlike previous attempts to play, LJ now has reading skills and coordination sufficient to stay on quest task without our assistance.  I am a firm proponent that she MUST level up herself. She will not learn anything if we drag her around.  She won’t learn her abilities, she won’t learn how to navigate a map – she’ll get to 50 and be totally useless.  No child of mine will do that.

I am quite enjoying the commentary I am hearing as she goes along.  She’s very excited to get Mako, and everything is going well until…

Hall of Shame Revamp

Posted on June 13, 2017 by NjessiJune 13, 2017

I’ve revamped the hall of shame.  Most of the images should display in an appropriate size, and you won’t have to click through if you don’t want to.

Bad clothes, bad name, bad hat. My brain hurts.

As I am once again playing and monitoring the blog, feel free to send horrible fashion my way.

Oh, Quinn. I’m Coming To Get You.

Posted on June 9, 2017 by NjessiJune 9, 2017

So while I was on hiatus from SWTOR, I heard little birds telling me that I get to… reunite with my bestie, Malavai Quinn.  Here’s the official blurb, as I am avoiding spoilers:

RETURNING COMPANIONS

Prepare to fight alongside Former Sith Warrior Companion Malavai Quinn or former Republic Trooper Companion Elara Dorne!

But beware, many years have passed… and your decisions may put old friendships to the test!

Last I saw him, I was giving him a neck-tickle… with force choke.

Never EVER gets old.

The following conversation with a guildie occurred yesterday:

Me: I should prioritize murdering Quinn. That’s next on the agenda.

(Guildie]): lol. I feel sorry for Quinn, actually. he’s stuck between a rock and a wall

Me: Ooh that’s how I should kill him. Squish.

Clearly I’m not over it.
