“Mutton yesterday, mutton today, and blimey, if it don’t look like mutton again tomorrer… “
Recently while leveling up in Spires of Arak, I ran into my favorite vignette yet! For those not in the know, vignettes are rare mobs or little “events” that you will find throughout Draenor. Each one of them gives you loot of some kind, along with Garrison resources. There’s a lot of them.
If you’ve read The Hobbit, or watched An Unexpected Journey, you should immediately know what this reference is.
I came upon the three trolls from The Hobbit and with them was a treasure chest. I was hoping they’d be overpowered and some wizard named “Dalfgan” would show up right before I die and smite them all with light. Alas, I just ended up slaughtering them with ruthless efficiency.
I looted their hoard and found some awesome flavor items…
One beard ring for each of the 12 dwarves, and Biblo’s vest. Blizzard, you should really make this into a shirt slot item. Seriously.
And how’s this for timing? The teaser trailer for the final installment of The Hobbit, The Battle of the Five Armies, was just released this afternoon. You can watch it below.
Yeah when the trolls are about to cook Bilbo and the Dwarfs company xD…
Yeah, those need to be cosmetic items for sure.
We already had the 2-ring. It’s time to see the 1-ring drop.
There is already The 1 Ring : http://www.wowhead.com/item=8350
Also The 5 Ring : http://www.wowhead.com/item=45859
Missed Sneeval? Actually looks like Gollum (Smeargle) and drops Sneeval’s loincloth. Can be found on the west of SMV in the area behind the portal and the top of the hill 🙂
