WoW: Destroyer of Relationships

Yup, the wife and I got back into World of Warcraft, we even got her a separate account so we can play together now. We’ve been getting into an absurd amount of fights since we began playing too. It’s an odd phenomenon how “fun” can turn into “not fun” when playing with loved ones.

If you guys want to save Azeroth with us we’re Sugafoot and Sugaface (alliance) or our alts, Moohere and Moothere (Horde) on Whisperwind.

Yes we’re nerds, but who cares! :D

If you’re new to these parts, the WoW series starts here!

    Love it! Even the flower is smiling, but probably not so much after it was herb’d.

    question: what’s a buff?

      A buff is a spell cast on other players or yourself to boost your stats. They traditionally cost a lot of mana so you need to regen a bit before doing any other spellcasting.

      Basically, he cast spells only on himself that take a while before he can do anything about it. That’s the punch line.

      I’m not one to normally explain strips but I realize this one isn’t as apparent unless you’re familiar with WoW or other similar games. As they said, buffs are spells you cast on yourself for various advantages they give you. Normally you’ll only have one maybe two buffs on you, the joke here was that the absurdity of me spending all my time and energy on just buffs…so much that I’m totally useless :D

      Maybe this one was too much WoW…

    Dumb Murlocs… I really don’t like them. >(
    Playing WoW with your significant other can be fun, you just have to figure out a good system. My boyfriend and I did – a hunter (dps) and druid (heals). Once we figured out how to play our characters and got some decent abilities/spells (leveled up), we made an awesome team, with him pulling aggro and I healing. I hope the same goes for you two, because it was a ton of fun!! Although, to be honest, the occasional fighting did occur. But it’s bound to happen sometimes.
    Anyway, I’ll wrap this rant up by saying how adorable the flower is!!! And even those blasted murlocs are cute. Keep up the good work, as always! =D

      P.S. On a totally unrelated note: I would like to make a request to have the iPhone app games (Super Awesome Kite Flyer Extreme {To the Max} and Man Vs. Bacon) also be made into Droid/Android apps. I would be willing to help research how to “convert” the iPhone programming and whatnot into Droid/Android versions.
      (For those of you who don’t know, the Droid/Android is the non-Apple version of the iPhone)

    I like it!

    But one of my pet peeves is copy and pasting stuff. You copied panel four and pasted it in five (as a silhouette). I always notice little things like that. Not sure why. Maybe it ’cause I look at the same comic 13 times a day expecting to see a new comic.

      He didn’t copy and past it, he used the same image to show you that they were happening at the same time. As in, they were the same because he wanted them to be, not because he was lazy or whatever reason that I cannot fathom for not liking copying and pasting.

    I see all the changes! The text boxes, “buffs!” and the background of panel 5 (the ones on the right of the background used to be cabins)!

    Uhh I think I see me a little mistake. Wouldn’t it be “Couldn’t YOU help me a little?” instead of “Couldn’t help me a little?”

      It may not be grammatically correct, but people talk like that. It’s not an error, it’s just how people talk.

    I sympathize with you and your wife getting in fights, my wife and I get along swimmingly and always have thus far in our five year marriage but whenever we start playing WoW or RO or DOTA whatever it is, if it’s competitive it becomes go to the throat kind of mentality. But outside of those worlds, just a couple of happy people!
