Welcome to WoW The Musical! We are currently one of the largest guilds on the Shandris realm.
Due to the server problems with Emberstorm Battlegroup, we started a sister guild
on Velen - Wow The Sitcom on the Horde side.
We have long been known for being a group of friendly, helpful people.
We think of the guild as our online family here to socialize and have fun together.
In WoW the Musical we like to keep things casual, and treat it as a family environment.
Beggars, Ninjas, Drama Majors and Fools need not apply.
If you are not a member, come to the Dark Side and enjoy the Music!!

LOVE IS IN THE AIRNew seasonal vanity pet, the Toxic WastelingVanity pet collectors, rejoice! The Crown Chemical Co. apothecaries not only drop some pretty nice necklaces, they're also the source of a new vanity pet, the Toxic Wasteling. You may think this looks a lot like the Disgusting Oozeling, but there's a major difference -- rather than a debuff applied to your character, the Wasteling is a hungry little guy. So hungry in fact, that he'll eat random critters, and as he does, he grows in size. Check out the video to see the Toxic Wasteling in action -- and for those pet collectors wondering about the Truesilver Shafted Arrow for the Perma-Peddle achievement, he's now available on holiday vendors for the low price of 40 Love Tokens. Filed under: Events Breakfast Topic: What are your plans for Love Is In the Air?![]() So what are your plans for Love Is In the Air? Does your main already have the meta from last year, or were you among the unlucky souls doomed to keep getting the same candy drops? Are you planning on hitting the new boss in Shadowfang Keep? And are you, like me, just ecstatic that you don't have to spend days hoping for a Peddlefeet pet to drop? Note: A few of us were around as soon as the holiday went live, and our FAQ on Love Is In the Air and OverAchiever on the holiday's achievements have now been updated to reflect the 2010 event. They'll be expanded later today with more information on the holiday questline and the new Shadowfang Keep encounter. Filed under: Breakfast Topics Tough Love: How to kill the Crown Chemical Co. apothecaries![]() Want to do the Love is in the Air holiday bosses? Short version: don't stand in things. Longer version, you say? Sure, we can do that. First off, while there is a quest chain that leads you to Shadowfang Keep, you do not have to have done any of those quests to engage the evil Crown Chemical Company apothecaries: there's a helpful NPC, Investigator Fezzen Brasstacks who will give you the quest and items necessary for the fight. Like previous holiday bosses, you'll be able to engage the apothecaries once per player so yes, you can chain in alts and keep repeating the fight over and over again. (I believe we killed them roughly eight times before people started getting sleepy.) Update: We've added an overhead video to help you understand how the immunities work. Now, back to your regularly scheduled strategy guide. Want to do the Love is in the Air holiday bosses? Short version: don't stand in things. Longer version, you say? Sure, we can do that. First off, while there is a quest chain that leads you to Shadowfang Keep, you do not have to have done any of those quests to engage the evil Crown Chemical Company apothecaries: there's a helpful NPC, Investigator Fezzen Brasstacks who will give you the quest and items necessary for the fight. Like previous holiday bosses, you'll be able to engage the apothecaries once per player so yes, you can chain in alts and keep repeating the fight over and over again. (I believe we killed them roughly eight times before people started getting sleepy.) ![]() Depending on gear levels, this fight can be somewhat challenging or a complete cakewalk. For starters, the quest that allows you to start the event and turn Apothecary Hummel hostile also grants you two items that trivialize the fight's 'don't stand in X' mechanic and reduces the various apothecaries damaging auras. The 'Perfume Neutralizer is the purple vial that comes in the kit the questgiver hands you: it renders you immune to Apothecary Hummel's damaging aura and all his chemical attacks, including the purple puddles he throws on the ground. Meanwhile, the 'Cologne Neutalizer' has the exact same effect, save that it works against Apothecary Baxter's green aura and puddles instead of Hummel's purple ones. The final member of the trio, Apothecary Frye, does not have a damaging aura but throws both colors of puddles on the ground. Therefore, with a little awareness it's perfectly acceptable to choose which color of Neutralizer you're going to use once Frye is the only apothecary left and simply stand only in the color of puddles that you are immune to.We did all of our attempts with one tank. Neither Apothecary Hummel nor Baxter's damaging auras hit for so much that a reasonably geared tank/healer team can't handle them (I'd say if you're in 232 gear or better and use the Neutralizers this fight is easily single tankable, and you might even be able to forgo the Neutralizers and still kill them): simply have the tank pick up Hummel as soon as he comes out of his usual villainous monologue and build some aggro, then as soon as Hummel calls out for Baxter switch to him and get him locked down. By then, Hummel should be reasonably close to dead, so just let whatever AoE threat you have keep Hummel on you while you work on Baxter. Keep Perfume Neutralizer up until Hummel is basically about to die then switch to Cologne and Baxter will prove no real difficulty. Both Hummel and Baxter have cone AoE attacks that can be avoided by just pointing them away from the group by the tank. If you'd rather, you could have a ret pally, feral cat druid, DPS DK or warrior go slightly tanky and hold Baxter for a few seconds instead of double tanking them, just have them use the Cologne Neutralizer and they might not even need to do more than hit RF, Bear Form, Defensive Stance or Frost Presence. Apothecary Frye adds a few seconds after Baxter, who is called into action by Hummel a few seconds into the fight. Since Frye has a constant reset to his aggro table and is immune to Chains of Ice or Piercing Howl (at least he seemed to be when I tried those abilities on my DK or my warrior tanking as fury in a mix of gear) it's probably easier to just nuke down Frye as soon as he comes active. We left him for last and killed him first and never really felt that it mattered, he was just annoying enough with his sudden aggro switches that killing him first made for less irritation. Frye resets so much that it's not really worth trying to tank him, but since he has no damaging aura and the majority of his attacks is him throwing cologne or perfume on the ground, just pick a Neutralizer and only stand in the correct color puddles. Also throughout the fight adds will run into the party and blow up: this damage is unavoidable but also fairly minor, our elemental shaman off-healed the fight with minimal difficulty. So that's basically the fight. The proper use of Neutralizers turns an annoying amount of AoE and splash damage into an entirely trivial mechanic, and makes this encounter one that can be accomplished by an entirely offspec group as long as they're reasonably geared and quick to not stand in things. Once they're dead, Apothecary Hummel drops a quest item to turn in at your faction capital, various iLevel 226 necks identical to the Emblem of Conquest ones, and a chance at some rare items including the infamous Love Rocket. Fool for Love just got easier![]() Love is in the Air on most servers by now, and players should notice a substantial change in the way the event is being run this year. No longer do you have to furtively log on each hour on the hour during the course of the event in the hopes that you'll get that candy bag with that ONE piece of candy you need for the Be Mine! achievement. The candy bag, as well as all other random rewards from previous years are available on vendors in each capital city, and purchased with Love Tokens. How do you get the tokens? Well, you certainly don't have to run around begging people to give you cards and building gifts. This year, the tokens are available through daily quests. Since it's the first day of the event, we may not have seen all of the possible dailies, but here's the rundown on two of them: Remember the Gifts of Adoration? This year, faction leaders are looking for jewelry. You can turn in a Lovely Charm Bracelet to the faction leader of your choice for a Lovely Card that will give you an hour long buff, and 5 Love Tokens. The method used to obtain these bracelets? Kwee will give you a Lovely Charm Collector's Kit with the following flavor text: "Pliers, bone saw, scalpel and sundry other tools allow for the collection of Lovely Charms from worthwhile enemies. Collect 10 charms to make a bracelet!" Yes, you read that correctly. You murder beasts and creatures in your level range, and hack Lovely Charms off of their corpses. I'm thinking I love this event already. Other ways to obtain Love Tokens include the daily quest "A Perfect Puff of Perfume," which requires you to hose down ten players or NPC's with perfume. Vendors and city guards will work just as well as other players, so don't worry about running out of people to spray. This quest will also earn you 5 tokens. The changes so far to the event make it much, much simpler to get that coveted Fool For Love meta achievement, and should provide a welcome change to players used to the same old grind from previous years. Check out the gallery below for the complete list of items available on the vendors, and stay tuned for more Love is in the Air info as it comes in! Filed under: Events Loot is in the air
Love is already in the air on the European realms and MMO Champion has the details on the loot which drops from the three new Love is in the Air bosses. Three apothecaries have taken up shop in Shadowfang Keep: Baxter, Hummel and Frye. They'll be there for the duration of the holiday as daily quest bosses and following is a list of what they drop (mouseover for their stats):
Stay tuned for more Love is in the Air info as it comes in. Love Is In the Air FAQ![]() The 2010 Love Is In the Air holiday doesn't much resemble its 2009 version; Blizzard's eliminated much of the frustration surrounding RNG and item drops, and overall things are a lot more fun This FAQ covers all of the questions we think will be most helpful to readers concerning the holiday's mechanics. If you have any questions not answered here or in our OverAchiever guide to the holiday's achievements, please drop a comment below and I'll try to make sure it gets answered! Help! Where do I go to get started? Head for any of your faction's major cities in Azeroth (Stormwind, Ironforge, the Exodar, or Darnassus for Alliance, and Thunder Bluff, Orgrimmar, Undercity, or Silvermoon for Horde). New goblin NPCs (most from the Crown Chemical Company) will have popped up around the more heavily-trafficked areas (read: AH/bank) with quests and information What will the NPCs ask me to do? When you first encounter them, you'll be given three quests:
You can spray any NPC or player character who hasn't been sprayed recently. You'll know if they've been sprayed if you see a big heart over their heads, and they'll have a debuff called "Sample Satisfaction" that theoretically prevents them from being sprayed again for 10 minutes. Interestingly, the debuff doesn't actually seem to last that long, which I guess is why there's a disclaimer accompanying the debuff ("Satisfaction not guaranteed to last the full duration"). Oh, and before you ask -- no, you cannot spray yourself! Where do I get the Lovely Charm Bracelets for the Gift daily quests? The goblin NPC will give you an item called the Lovely Charm Collector's Kit. This will sit in your bags, and as long as you have it, any mob you kill that gives experience (or would give you experience, if you're a level-capped 80) has a chance to create a Lovely Charm item for you instantly. You don't even have to loot it; the mob dies, and voila. 10 Lovely Charms can be combined into a Lovely Charm Bracelet. So, assuming you're doing all the Gift daily quests (i.e. one Lovely Charm Bracelet for each of your faction leaders), you should plan on killing at least 40 non-gray mobs in order to get the mats for 4 Bracelets. In reality, you'll probably wind up killing quite a few more, because the Lovely Charms are not a 100% drop. ![]() What's the drop rate on the Lovely Charms? While grinding various Storm Peaks and Icerown mobs to put my first Bracelet together, I saw a drop rate of about 38%. I'm not yet sure whether this is a representative sample or not, but suffice it to say I wouldn't expect to put a bunch of Bracelets together without some RNG along the way. The good news is that, because the Charms have a chance to drop off any mob that's not gray to your character, you can do the faction leader Gift daily with minimal inconvenience assuming you do other dailies. What can I buy with all these Love Tokens? For starters, just about everything you'll need for the Fool For Love meta achievement, and some things that are just for fun:
Plan on buying the Bag of Heart Candies for 2 tokens, Box of Chocolates for 10 tokens, 2 purchases of the Silver Shafted Arrow (10 tokens), 2 purchases of the Love Rockets (10 tokens), 3 purchases of the Rose Petals (6 tokens), and 5 Love Fools (if you don't have a buddy to share them with -- 50 tokens). The Love Fools are not reusable, and unless you can double up with another player (multiple players can /pity the same Fool), you'll need to buy 5. The total will run you 98 tokens. If you want your own Romantic Picnic Basket (rather than piggybacking off another player's in Dalaran for Lonely?), the total is 108. If you want the Truesilver Shafted Arrow for Perma-Peddle, the total is 148. Is there any questline associated with the holiday? Yup! If you start your Fool For Love odyssey in another city, a goblin NPC will send you to Stormwind (for the Alliance) or Orgrimmar (for the Horde). There, you'll find another goblin NPC offering Something Stinks (Alliance) or Something Stinks (Horde). From thereon, the questline is pretty straightforward and really fun (and perhaps there's a sly /wink from Blizzard over the forthcoming goblin race option in Cataclysm -- you get to turn into one for a small portion of the questline). The questline will conclude with two new quests -- a new daily (Crushing the Crown) and one that will send you to Shadowfang Keep (Man on the Inside). More information to come later today! |
