PTR Notes: Griftah's back in town

I like Griftah, and I'm glad that he's back-- that jerk Scryer going through his things was none too kind to the shifty Troll while he was gone. And my guess is that Griftah isn't done being vindicated-- I think it would be really funny if, in an upcoming patch, Blizzard changed that old 30g necklace Griftah sold to have a really cool proc or effect put on it, sort of a reward for those who've stood by Griftah the whole time.
On the other hand, I hope this "guinea pig" of progressive content is really helping Blizzard learn how to do it-- seems a little strange to waste updates like this on just one Troll when we could be seeing real progressive content elsewhere in the game. Still, every little step counts-- it's just another update in the whole saga of Griftah the Troll.

I hope he doesn't just end after the Zul'Aman patch. Make him give up on the Zul'Aman thing after a while, stop giving the quest, and maybe have him do a Sunwell Plateau quest, then after that, move to Dalaran in Northrend. Progressive content indeed.

Oh, he's the one selling the hula doll. When I read over the engineering-mount reagents, that was the only item I wasn't familiar with.

I hope he finds some refuge with the ice trolls in Northrend some day.

Haven't you ever seen a car with a lttle hula girl on the dash?
Pretty funny if you ask me.

Heh, I get it now. It's a dash ornament for the Gnome Airplanes.

WOO! Griftah's back! I was sad when he got exiled, even if he was still pretty close.
Shattrath just wouldn't be the same without him duping people into buying random crap, or Cro bellowing about the fruit vendor. Might not be major content updates, but little world storylines never fail to make me smile.

I want to see Griftah go try to hock his wares elsewhere in outland and get arrested by Kael and sentenced to death and there's a quest to break him out of the arcatraz.
