Woo! My warrior got the Tripping the Rifts Feat of Strength! I should probably work on getting it for Honor too, but ehhhh. I am lazy.

I also really need to start running dungeons on my warrior. Her gear is shit. (Although even with that, doing a bunch of Dustwallow Marsh quests like 3-4 levels too early is the first time I've actually felt challenged on her so far. She is so OP. But not as OP as SC's warlock who soloed Stormwind Stockade when I believe he could technically still queue for it in the random dungeon finder.)

ALSO IMPORTANT WARRIOR ADVICE. Should I buy a dual spec at 40 and try Protection? I KIND OF WANT TO. Although I'm not sure if for actually trying to tank or just for the lolz. (Alternately, I could buy a dual spec for PvP purposes, although is the preferred warrior PvP spec Prot or Arms? With all its "you pwn their faces, but you also take all the damage in the world!" abilities, I suspect Fury isn't really a PvP spec. Also, I really need to switch Honor's Holy spec over to a PvP spec, although I can't decide if I'm going to go Ret or Holy for it.)

edit: Also, from JudyGoldman on the unforum:
"Enter the tragic hero and his unattainable companion."

Some people would probably disagree with me, but I still think Evan is the Tragic Hero as some people have speculated previously. Like Mattwan said, a tragic hero is one undone by actions he perceives as virtuous. As we've seen so far, Evan is becoming obsessed with the idea of killing Slenderman, which if he managed to do so would be pretty heroic indeed. Not to mention his defensive behavior whenever the guys talk smack about Damsel.

In my mind, at least, I think Evan sees himself in this as the White Knight trying to save the Damsel in Distress and slay the Dragon. Except for the fact that the Dragon in this story is an invincible, horrifying Eldritch abomination and the Hero and his Damsel both have serious mental issues.

I'm not sure I even agree with this assessment of that line (It's most likely about Jeff and Jessa), but oh man, those kids. He's a knife nut, she's an arsonist! Together, they ia ia cthulhu fthagn!


Someone make me go run a dungeon on my warrior.
