Bored of gardening, Ketura returned to Northrend to contend for a bear. Once she’d brought Thorim back to his senses, she went on to improve her reputation with the Horde Expedition by helping out the Taunka. She began by investigating some temporal disturbances in the vicinity of Camp Tunka’lo, and, having just been to Throne of the Four Winds with LBR last night, I found myself wondering if The North Wind had been updated to appear as Nezir (alas, that has not been done — but it should be!). Afterwards, she went to help some of the other Taunka villages.
Having achieved this measure of factional esteem, Ketura could finally accomplish a long-delayed milestone of technical proficiency in her chosen craft. I had enough of the necessary materials already on hand that it didn’t take long to collect the rest of them.
Thanks to the wonders of account-wide mounts, my Alliance chicks can now enjoy the Mekgineer’s Chopper, too!
Now I need to acquire some gnarly biker duds….
OOH can’t wait to see those!
Time to get my Warrior leveled up enough to solo BRD, then. She’s my Blacksmith, and that’s the place to get the mats and the recipe for the chestpiece I want to use for a mail biker set.
Just like Navi, I can’t wait to see your biker girls!
Heh, well, you’ve seen a couple of them already, sort-of. I don’t know that I’ll make the mail set exactly as I imagined it for Mog Madness, but it’ll probably end up pretty similar. And I’ll probably go through all the entries again looking at the leather ones and borrow ideas from here and there among them.
Grats on the bike! I’m also looking forward to see biker outfits.
Thanks!
Oh, dear, what have I gotten myself into…?
Grats on your choppers! Your little gnomie looks so cute on it
Thanks!
It seems that the bike doesn’t scale in quite the same way as other mounts do — I was a little surprised at how small she is
I love the in-game engineering mounts. Though I never realised that the Horde & Alliance bikes looked different!
I knew that the Horde and Alliance versions of the motorcycle looked different, but I confess that I wasn’t sure of the fine details until I made it myself!
My engineer didn’t feel like a “real” engineer until she’d built herself the copters, but I didn’t decided to make a bike until it was cleared for the account-wide mounts list. Although I didn’t mind that my engineer is the only one that can use the copters, the cost of the bike is so high (relative to my very NON-leet gold-acquisition skillz) that I didn’t really want to make it for just one character.
I know exactly what you mean about the cost of the bike! I sold the first one I made to get a bit of profit to partially cover the cost of the second one that I made for myself. But I do love it & can’t imagine my gnome DK riding anything else.
