RNGG and RNGTards – Your stories needed!
So my ‘Guide to RNG’ is closer and closer to being in a presentable state. I’m getting quite excited about being able to finally share it with you guys.
Amongst the different topics I’m covering is ‘Common mistakes in dealing with RNG’ in which I discuss some of the more common errors people make with chance. This is stuff like “Well I’ve killed Baron Rivendare 20 times so far and no mount yet, so it should drop soon” and especially ANY QQ related to the ‘unfairness’ of RNG.
I’ve fondly termed these examples ‘RNGG’ and the folks in them ‘RNGTards’ (a play on the WoW economic term ‘freetards’). I need examples and stories of folks you’ve encountered who really don’t seem to understand or cope well with RNG.
I’ll even throw in a [Papa Hummel's Old-Fashioned Pet Biscuit] loot card for the best example!
Name these classic bosses
Something fun for you guys! After a few classic instance runs lately I got to thinking about how many ‘secret’ or ‘hidden’ bosses there were even back then.
There’s a massive list of them so I thought it might be a cool challenge to show a picture of a few at a time and see who can get the most correct. To clarify; All of the bosses shown in the picture were in non-raid instances during classic warcraft.
I have a [Path of Cenarius] loot card here for the first correct set of answers. If nobody answers correctly within a day or so it’ll go to the person who got the most correct. Leave your answers in the comments field below!
UPDATE – I’ve had a number of responses come in so far. I’m going to not show the comments for another day or so to ensure everyone gets a fair go. Also a bonus question! People who played a certain class in classic wow have an advantage on this challenge, which class and why?
UPDATE 2 – The first correct answer was Hakasu from Ravenholdt EU, your path of cenarius code is on the way in an email grats! :) Grats also to Dregor, Aimcaster, Blatant, Ares, Stonefury who had correct answers.
The answer to the bonus question was Mage. In classic wow the Magisters Boots (dungeon set) were originally – and very unfairly – a drop from Postmaster Malown. They were later moved to Hearthsinger Forestren who was a lot easier to farm.
I also would have accepted Druids for the Mor Grayhoof/idol connection as some of you pointed out – many memories of stealth farming that one! :)
