Anyone else “stopping to smell the roses” in old content? Where?
I am taking advantage of your XP Boost and leveling some alts. I am currently in the Jade Forest of Pandaria. It is beautiful here. The sounds and the music are fantastic. The questing is immersive.
I am thoroughly enjoying this experience in Pandaria.
Both Pandaria and its people are worth the time to stop and appreciate. Breathtaking sights, enticing food descriptions, and surprising depth. I’m a fan.
I tend to look forward to Pandaria when I level alts.
I love Pandaria, but then I also love Far Eastern culture to begin with so that really helps.
Other zones I enjoy:
Netherstorm (Outlands)
Crystalsong Forest (WotLK)
Grizzly Hills (Playing through the early questline here as a worgen is amusing. Were you bitten? Were you bloody bitten?! My worgen, in worgen form, “Ummm…you’re going to have narrow that down…”)
Icecrown (WotLK, really sells the dark, cold death meancing feel)
Valley of the Four Winds (Long, but the variety of environments and characters makes it worth the trip)
There’s more, but I don’t want to get too text wall-y.
Not wrong friend, I know a lot of people didn’t like the lore and theme or pandas, but those areas are honestly some of the most beautiful zones in the game.
Really enjoyed spending time in that expansion and always enjoy going back to visit it.
I’m even going to do all the farm stuff again on my shaman here once I get motivated to do my loremasters. It’s tedious, but can be fun in it’s own right. I remember just when Pandaria was at it’s close. My main at the time retired her farm by planting a blossom tree in every plot.
Edit: Hmm…thinking about it. I believe that was my green fire warlock who I changed to a vulpera. Gotta see if her stuff is still there.
Whatever you do stay away from Halfhill farming! Those Pandas there will get you to move rock, plow, plant, sow, cook, plant some more, kill things, give the gifts, plant some more, cook some more,…they will NEVER let you leave! They will work you to death all for their benefit to get their respect. Don’t go! You’ve been warned!!
I like Pandaria a lot, honestly it makes BFA areas look hideous.
Running around Vol’dun and then going to Panda island is just such a dramatic difference it is jarring. The quality of things has gone DOWN in my opinion.
The Sha corruption is easily the best looking corruption in the game. I honestly wish we could have seen more Sha corruption both in and out of Pandaria.
I to am taking advantage of the xp boost, leveling my new Vulpera in Pandaria. MOP is my most favorite expansion. The music, culture, story, all of it. I agree it is very immersive. Glad you’re enjoying yourself.
