Secrets of Shadowbolting

Warlocks are cool cause we have our pets and all but unlike hunters we can not train them. We’re mean and evil, we’ve tamed the demons of the dark but……they all look the same. We can’t change their names, we can’t get a red minion, we can’t make our Voidwalker purple. In essence, we all have minions that look the same. We can’t have a black fel puppy while someone else has a white, oh no. They’re all the same monotonous brown.

BUT. Occasionally we can get a new pet (for 5 minutes or less). I’ve enslaved many demons over my time but I still find the Hellfire Familiar as one of my favorites. Why do I prefer him over my imp? He’s big, he has a 12k mana pool, he doesn’t whine like Lazkin does and he hits like a truck. He has more health than the Kara imps and he just plain looks better.

The bad news is he only lasted 3 minutes before breaking and then everyone killed him.

I think it would be cool to be able to swap out your imp. Not all imps are alike, some are better for certain things. When running as an affliction lock, I’d love an imp with a 12k mana pool I could Dark Pact from and steal mana all day. 6k from Lazkin doesn’t quite cut it. Just like hunters can have different types of pets that do the same thing, so should we! Maybe I want a kara imp! or a felhound from the 2nd boss in Ramparts or a concubine seductress chick from kara. Maybe I want to be daring and get a Malicious Instructor from slabs. It would be really cool to be able to swap around your pet for upgrades from guys you run around killing all day, different colors, maybe different talents (or maybe I’m just reading BRK’s blog too much and am jealous of all the hunter pet choices)….

BUT. /point at Mojo
Look what I got in ZA the other day? A bunch of others run around with their little Mojo from ZA and I finally got one. I’m not going to lie, I squealed like a little girl in excitement, it was pretty nifty.
AND I’m a champion of the Naaru. What is a Naaru? I know it’s those glowey light thingy dudes hanging around but I’d be much happier if I could glow too instead of having my name extend out to 40 characters long.

Next topic.
As master chef, I have all sorts of food for people. My rogue buddy was in need of some extra hit rating food so we helped him out. Then we talked about pvp and while we’re currently on break from pvp and actually have 13k health in pvp gear, we found it more amusing this way.

Maybe I should go back to pvp…it’s been a while, I may be over my grumpiness.
