Deadr just dinged 29 this morning. It was a blue morning in the Auction Hall, as you can tell by Deadr’s profile now.
Yesterday started with a grouping with a mage called Napkins. We pretty much dps’d the crap out of things and I bubbled as needed. We ran quests up on the Pinnacle, Alien Egg, and then went after the Wyvern eggs. At that point, he said he was close enough to level 27 that he just wanted to grind there. That was fine by me. We were taking down level 28s and 29s pretty easily, with no downtime. He got really close to dinging and had to go. His guild was doing AV and they needed a full team. I kept on grinding there until I dinged level 27.
Now I had a choice: explore, quest, or grind for level 28. I decided to do a combination of exploring for quests to grind for. But I mostly just killed everything one level below me to 3 levels above me.
I was kind of like Dorothy in Oz, only not lions, and tigers, and bears. It was hyenas, harpys, and kobolds. I downed Steelsnap and Arikara. I’m really proud of Arikara, because it took me two tries, so I know it was an accomplishment. Besides, what chance does a poor level 27 have against a level 28 Elite? Um…pretty good by my records.
I am pretty happy with the gear stats Deadr had after 28 levels. I didn’t update the screenshot after leveling this morning, but he’s way past what Priestr could do now. After shopping this morning, I added a new hat, gloves, and FINALLY a wand! I have my DPS up over 40 now, and am really looking forward to getting out and grinding some more for level 30, but, alas, I had to write this post you you’d all know what’s going on. After hours of grinding for a quest, I also got a Rare belt. Here are my new Blues that I’m sporting around Burning Legion these days, or at least until something else catches my fancy.

Gloves of Old
After hours of leveling, I decided to go back to the battlegrounds and do some Warsong Gulch. Last night was just not the night for the Horde. After 2 tries as winning a round, I decided it was time for bed. I died 15 times in one match. It was almost over in 5 minutes, but we all pulled back into the base and played defense. All of a sudden, we were all there and wiped them clean. That got old after a while and we did need their flag a whopping 3 times, so when we split to do that, they took us for a ride again. The amazing this was that it wasn’t a guild match, despite the Alliance’s usually poor showing in WSG.
