scenes from the Auction House dance party

July 24, 2017 by kamaliaetalia

As my current primary banker, it fell to the Underpowered Death Knight to attend the Auction House dance party. She took all of her favorite party clothes and changed outfits at intervals throughout the day.

Things started out a little slow.

Sometimes the dance floor was definitely the safest place to be.

It was fun to be the only Tauren in the house while I was wearing this outfit!


That white leaf version of the Cenarion Spaulders on the Blood Elf in the background comes from the Ravenbear Disguise — a toy I have, but have never actually tried. Now that I know what it does, my Druid will want to use it to augment a Transmogrification kit someday. She has coveted those shoulders ever since she first met with Morthis Whisperwing for the Swift Flight Form quest chain.

I saw fewer bunny ears than I might have expected.

The Underpowered Death Knight looks pretty drunk in this selfie — rather appropriate for her costume of the moment!

Although Mystery Kegs and other forms of brew abounded, however, she hadn’t actually partaken.

Then this happened.

So I popped my Jewel of Hellfire, too…

…which scared away all the other Tauren at the party.

Why does the female fel Eredar face have the same kinds of seams in it as the Titan Computer Console faces in the Tribunal of the Ages?

Someone put down a Moonfeather Statue…
It was a MOONKIN MASH!
It was an OWLBEAR SMASH!




I saw several people wearing the new Winter Veil suits, but I think I might have been the only Gaudy Sweater in the crowd.

I loved seeing these two low-level characters catching the spirit of the fun and hanging around at the party for awhile.

I considered wearing this hat with a Tuxedo, but this is so much more stylish and eye-catching, dontcha think?

Despite this event triggering whenever you entered the Auction House from far enough outside —



— people were continually complaining about the absence of the auctioneers and wondering where they were supposed to go. More than once, I spoke up reminding the poor confused people that Orgrimmar also has auctioneers in Goblintown, Trolltown, Taurentown, and the Valley of Honor.

An Alliance raid paid us a call, but they couldn’t stop the funk.

Rainbow Generators were very popular all day long, but this is the most I think I ever saw going at once — and certainly the prettiest formation!

Somehow it wasn’t surprising that the most populous race for the race calls always seemed to be the Sin’dorei. Fortunately, they are so tiny (compared to the Shu’halo) that a lot more of them can comfortably fit on the stage.

Tauren have the most fun, though!

A sweet end to the day!

A very serendipitous selfie snap that I couldn’t replicate if I tried! Though I had been dancing next to that handsome fellow in the guard costume deliberately πŸ˜›

    Awesome screenshots, so many fantastic expressions you caught πŸ™‚

    I wanted those cenarion shoulders in light blue for as long as I can remember…

    Hah at the comment from the NPC outside, great.

      The enhanced facial expressions are one of my favorite things about the new models! Even if some of them are really, really goofy — like that smile the male Tauren does while he’s dancing.

      Now that I know how to get the look of those white Cenarion Shoulders, it might be time to try to put together a Thisalee Crow mog… or maybe you should to it, ’cause you’re also a Night Elf and all! πŸ˜€

    Man that looks like fun! I kinda skipped it because, well … I don’t know, really, I just did. Next time I won’t.


    • on July 24, 2017 at 12:11 pm kamaliaetalia

      It was fun! Sillly, mindless fun — the best kind (sometimes)!

    I was mesmerized by the dance party, sat there for the longest time and was pretty sad to see it go. Should have known Cat would love it.


    • on July 24, 2017 at 2:09 pm kamaliaetalia

      Mesmerizing is a good description of it! Somehow I’m not surprised that Cat loved it πŸ˜€


  4. on July 24, 2017 at 1:13 pm Alunaria

    Yes, me too, the facial expressions are so much more alive now. Indeed, I thought of Thisalee too πŸ˜€ But I cannot get the toy, since its Horde only 😦 (And no horde character)


    • on July 24, 2017 at 3:16 pm kamaliaetalia

      Could you make a Horde Druid Class Trial character and play through just enough of Stormheim to get the toy?
      (Gritting your teeth all the way, and keeping in mind that I *hated* being railroaded through Sylvanas’ crap and consider that entire section of Stormheim leveling to be purely game mechanics, not something my characters actually participated in.)


      • on July 25, 2017 at 10:21 am Alunaria

        That is a good idea, I’ve been meaning to see the horde side of things sometime. Hmm. Oh what, Sylvanas’ crap? Is it bad?


      • on July 25, 2017 at 10:37 am kamaliaetalia

        The Forsaken are almost always bad news. My Tauren characters distrust and dislike the Forsaken as a nation, though they are willing to give individual Forsaken whom they meet the benefit of the doubt at first, and have found a few whom they consider to be trustworthy. My Blood Elf characters have a little more leniency in their view of the Forsaken due to Sylvanas having been the Ranger-General of Silvermoon.

        Oooh, I see, thank you for clarifying. I can relate to that πŸ™‚

    I completely forgot to try my Mesmerizing Fruit Hat! I was the prefect place and I blew it.


    • on July 25, 2017 at 10:30 am kamaliaetalia

      The mesmerizing fruit hat was the first hat I thought of! Then the ruby sunglasses πŸ˜€

    Those are some really nice screenshots! It looks like you’ve had a lot of fun πŸ™‚ Thanks for sharing! Your selfies prove once again how awesome Tauren are ❀


    • on July 26, 2017 at 9:33 am kamaliaetalia

      Thanks! It *was* a lot of fun!


  7. on July 28, 2017 at 10:05 am wowstorylines

    Loved the screenshots and it is one event that I totally missed out on because I was tied up with other things. I’ll catch it next time, I hope.


    • on July 28, 2017 at 10:18 am kamaliaetalia

      I hope you get a chance to catch it next time, too! Also that we don’t have to wait a whole year for it to come around again! Twice a year, or maybe one a quarter even, might be a good frequency.


      • on July 28, 2017 at 10:21 am wowstorylines

        Oh, that is good news, I’ll have to keep my eye out for it on the calendar. Thank you πŸ™‚


      • on July 28, 2017 at 11:51 am kamaliaetalia

        Oh, I don’t KNOW that it will be more than once a year. I’m just hoping for it…
