My seventh alchemy discovery

After a month of quietness, Bauhinia finally discovered Transmute Primal Earth to Primal Life. And I failed to take a screenshot.
I have been using transmute primal shadow to primal water when there isn't enough mats for transmute primal might. Since primal shadow is not fun to farm, I was very excited to discovery this transmute.
Though these two primals can be easily farmed through mining or herbalism, the value-added for this transmute is quite high.



[Edited: I managed to find the screenshot in a strangely sorted folder ^^ ]

Ghost wolf pet, no more.

After patch 2.3 went live, ghost wolf was a hot hunter rare pet and it would be more rare now. Many hunters have tamed this almost-mission-impossible Grimtotem Spirit Guide (aka ghostwolf). Until recently CM Drysc announced that Blizzard has finally put a stop on it almost two months after the patch. Luckily, for those who has tamed one, they will not disappear.
The taming process was challenging since the ghost wolf will despawn in exactly 8 seconds. With taming beast spell lasts 20 sec. to cast, a hunter would need to increase spell haste through Mystic Skyfire Diamond proc and Drum of Battle or Shaman's Bloodlust.
I don't understand why Blizzard took away this challenging and fun taming possibility.
Luckily one of my guildmate has tamed one so I had a chance to adore its beauty.

Patch 2.3.2: semi QQ post

The patch 2.3.2 went live on January 8.
The good news are
- /timetest command can be used to test your computer performance
- Ravage will deal 35% more damage

The bad news are
- Lifebloom will no longer maintain the existing strength
- And all the Hallow End items were gone! Duration will be 14 days according to the calendar instead of game time.

I found my flying broom gone and the Tricky Treat on my mule gone too. But I manage to save some candies in the mailbox of my mule. Not all over yet. Yohoo!

Happy Holidays!

Feast of Winter Viel was great fun as usual. I kept some Hot Apple Cider on a mule since it has a duration timer. However the mats for making them does not.
I had no luck in getting the Schematic: Snowmaster 9000 for my engineer alt, so I decided to buy one from AH for 30g.

Greatfather winter gave usa lot of non-combat pet: Red helper and Green helper, Snowman Kit, Jingling Bell Reindeer and the new Clockwork Rocket Bot.

One winter veil mystery, why poor Metzen is kidnapped every single year? There is some serious security issue. ^^
