Um. What?

So you might remember that Aisling, my priest, got the fox kit off a gut feeling and a random kill.  Apparently, lightning can strike twice, since the same exact thing just happened to Nalanie, my paladin, after a successful Tol Barad.  It was a different fox - Aisling's was within the spider area; Nalanie's was the one just outside the alliance base camp.


Why can't I get this luck on Kalliope???  Sheesh.

Solves my minipet problem on her, at least. :)

Bizarre minipet cravings

I got out of the final arena match of the evening and Tiny Shale Spider was by my side.  I didn't summon him.  I didn't even have my companions page open.  I guess he wanted to run rated bgs with me!

Really weird, but I'm not going to say no!

Rare sense and drop luck shenanigans

My priest tends to have all sorts of ridiculous drop luck.  This has always been the case for her, even while she was leveling.  I've never had such a lucky character!  Unfortunately, the troll instances haven't been too terribly kind to her since it was decided that she's going to be raiding again.  This has been baffling for me - she always has good luck.  What was going on?

Today, I found out.

I was getting Tol Barad dailies done, working toward the spirit trinket.  It was the much-hated quest to kill 12 spiders.  Killing quests don't bother some people, but I get cranky at having to kill a decent number of mobs, since I tend to pick them off one at a time so I'm prepared in case someone jumps me.  I hadn't gotten more than three spiders in when I found myself off to the side with no target spiders around and a lone fox.  I took one look at that fox and knew it was going to drop the minipet fox.  Mind you, Kalliope had never had luck farming for that thing, so I had given up looking.

So I kill the fox, and sure enough....

Typical.
