TYI Day 7: Screenshot of the Year

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

As someone who takes an obscene amount of screenshots, it took me a long time to pick out some of my favorite picks.  I know it asks for one but… I couldn’t pick just one!  Because my computer is a bit… meh… I run with a lot of settings turned down, so my screenshots are not what they could be.

TYI Day 6: Favorite Line of Poetry/Lyric

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

This is probably going to be the hardest day for me!  Not because I don’t have any favorites of these things but because my favorite songs don’t have lyrics.

So I figured I would grab a song by my favorite artist, BT, that I’ve really been digging and use lyrics from that, since they somewhat apply to Tanwen.

TYI Day 5: Title of Choice

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

While I have many characters that I do many things on, I only “collect” things (mounts, pets, and achievements) on Real Tanwen.  That being said, I couldn’t pick just one title to display.

TYI Day 4: Greatest Accomplishment

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

Choosing a “greatest accomplishment” is a bit difficult for me.  I am “proud” of a lot of the things I have done in the game, from boss kills to rep grinds to item collection.  In the end, it all comes down to the time investment.  I can really only think of “accomplishments” that Real Tanwen has completed, because I’ve played her the longest of my current characters.

TYI Day 3: Representing You

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

Representing You is a fun one because it asks for either a screenshot or a real-life picture.  Which one will I choose?!

TYI Day 2: Player Housing

I can’t promise that every character will be in every TYI.  My hunters, for example, don’t really “live” anywhere and call a lot of places home.  But here’s a few!

TYI Day 1: Favorite Hangout

Through Your Interface (TYI) is the brainchild of Saz.  It’s a bit old (apparently started in May?!) but I’ve been meaning to do it for awhile.  A post a day for 15 days detailing special moments, places, and other minutiae about your characters.

Doing a TYI for me is sort of fun, because I have both RP and non-RP characters to use for this exercise.

The first day of TYI makes the differences between these characters painfully obvious.  While my WrA characters have specific hangouts for character reasons, Tanwen’s hangout is… uh.  Sort of more utility.

24 Hours of Patch 4.3

Now that I’ve had roughly 24 hours to mess around with the 4.3 features, let’s talk turkey.  Or transmog.  Or gold sinks.  Or whatever!

Prepping For Transmogrification: Alliance Edition

Getting ready to ‘mog all my characters has been a very fun… and very frustrating… experience.  For some of my girls, all of their outfits have been ready to go for years (literally, years) because I’m such a packrat.  For others, though, it has been a slog through old content week in and week out, trying to get that one final piece to complete the outfit (Staff of Immaculate Recovery, I’m looking at you! /shakesfist).  That being said, I have not completed Real Tanwen’s ‘mog sets yet because there are a few key items missing (such as the aforementioned staff, Chronicle of Dark Secrets, Apostle of Argus, and Crystal Spire of Karabor… wow, I have really bad luck with weapons, eh?) and I don’t feel like the sets are complete until I have them.  My Alliance girls, however, seem to be pretty set for outfits.

With four Alliance ladies at 85, I was prepared to have to farm quite a bit for what I wanted.  Apparently not!  Some, like Bizarro Tanwen, had everything they needed in their bank.  Others, like my hunters, just needed a quick trip to the AH to complete their sets.

Follow the jump to see all four girls in all five outfits!

***A note before we get started: Since most of my characters wear robes, there will often times be a link missing pants and (possibly) bracers; this is because they are not visible with the outfit.
