Ding 40; Huntr Gets a Black Hawkstrider

May 29, 2007 By Gitr 7 Comments

I dinged 40 yesterday morning with 2d 16h 52m /played time using Joana’s Horde Guide. I don’t think I’ve ever bested 4 days before, so I am entirely thrilled with my investment. I immediately translocated to Silvermoon and made my way to [tag]Thuron’s Livery[/tag] outside of Silvermoon (61,54) to purchase my mount. I took a look at them all before I made my way inside the building to receive my training to become worthy to handle such a creature.

[tag]Perascamin[/tag] offered to teach me to ride one of his slower breeds for 81g, which I gladly exchanged to be able to travel at 160% of my normal speed. I went back outside and purchased a [tag]Black Hawkstrider[/tag] from [tag]Winaestra[/tag], the breeder, for another 9g.

    Gratz! The black is definately the least ugly. Good choice.

    GZ to the mount! At least the hawkstriders are slightly cooler than the Draenei elekks…

    I would rather ride a slug then those stpid chocobo wannabees. Why they didnt give a bright canary yellow option is beyond me. Not looking forward to grinding another faction for a decent mount.

    On the bright side, a new mount is under 10g. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Thanks. I got on Paladr this morning and was downright depressed that he was in Charred Vale. It is going to take forever to get him somewhere fun. I think I need to keep my focus on Huntr while I regain my money pool to get Paladr uber gear to be able to keep up with Joana’s guide.

    I never had any problems with stuff as a hunter, but I always had my personal tank and could run away at any moment. I used Feign Death several times Sunday night, but didn’t die until I was in over my head fighting for the last 15% when I was too tired to have any business playing.

    Grats.

    My own Blood Elf is going to get the “In your face” purple one. You’ve got to have fun with it. ๐Ÿ™‚

    The Blood Elf Pally’s mount is also black, if I’m remembering right. My wife’s going to be getting that one.

    IF we find any time! ๐Ÿ™‚
