I ran all around kingdom come last night and turned in some quests and picked up some quests along the way. I went to Undercity to fly to Hammerfall to hit 300 First Aid, as Rhone handed me 2 more stacks of Runecloth to help. I hit 300 and flew to Tarren Mill to ride to Light’s Hope Chapel. That was a totally eventless ride.
Then I hearthed to Orgrimmar to fly to Winterspring and ride through Timbermaw Hold to get to Moonglade. I had 2 turn-ins there, and then it was off to Un’Goro to get to Silithus. I arrived in Silithus and picked up 2 kill quests and logged off for the night. After someone in guild chat spoiled the ending of the Patriots Colts game that I was taping on the DVR to watch the second half this morning. Monkey.
I got on this morning and ran out of the inn at Cenarian Hold and ran off to kill some Dredge Strikers and other varmin that I remember have incredibly poor drop rates. After 30 minutes, I had my 15 Strikers and 2 drops that I needed. I turned in the Striker quest and picked up the Dredge Crusher quest. I ran back out and killed 2 Crushers before I decided that it is better to make money to pay the bills than play a game, and left early for work. I am right on the cusp of 30% and have 100k rest XP. After work today and during the night tonight, that should be enough rest to get me through this level with double XP all the way.
I’m feeling pretty stinking powerful right now, and I think that is a major part in wanting to level Deadr to take him to Outlands over playing Gitr. Gitr doesn’t feel powerful. Sure he’s got the armor and HP to take a beating, but I can do things with Deadr that Gitr drools over, and I’ve only got 10 1/2 days of playtime and 55 levels so far. Deadr has 4500 MP, unbuffed, and can take down level 60s with 40-60% mana left. It’s a real trip to lay waste to an area like that. I finally found a Devout Beltย on the AH last night, so I bought it for 9g and got the Armor bonus.
I have a Dwarf Priest. After crawling up from level 16 friday, she finished out the weekend at 20. I was leveling her specificly for emchanting and to DE high level stuff. Got her maxed out to 225 with the mats she had in the bank. Now however I might continue the leveling. I also cranked out a few levels on my lock. Tell you what, theres a big difference in those 2. I will prolly take both to 60+. Since there is no ETA for me to get the BC, I am at a stand still on my rogue. Though he has reeived some nice upgrades in the new stuff on the AH.
If I remember correctly, you have a job and a family, so I’d understand if you didn’t want to dish out on the BC, but I think you’d find newfound fun with your rogue to be able to get better gear than is available in the original version without raiding. The quest rewards rock. I bought all 3 BoE Devout pieces, but I’m in no rush to get any others.
I’ll post my raiding plans up today after my doctor appointment.
Oh I agree it will be a blast when I get it. I went into Costco yesterday and they had a copy for $34. I was gonna walk on by but i had to defend leaving it to my wife…SHE tried to convince me to get a copy for my account and that we could wait to get hers. She has bugged me about spending too much time on the game. I told her straight up if i got the BC then she would prolly hate me in a week. So i wait till the funds are there for the BC. Definatly gonna get me some-O-that as soon as possible.
