Ding 16; Fallen off the Pace

By 4 Comments

I got Paladr to level 16 this morning, but he is no longer neck and neck with Joana. ๐Ÿ™ I guess Paladins are not everything I thought they were, yet…as I have none AOE that I’m going for. No damage mitigation or anything that punishes mobs simply for hitting me and pissing me off.

I have 2 talent points to spend, but I have no idea where to put them yet until I research what the build I want requires. Links to builds are useless to me here, and I don’t surf at home because I’m playing so I guess I’m screwed. Not really, but it’s just harder to find the info. I think I can get all of that stuff today if it calms down here. I’m guessing I need to put points in my armor, but maybe hit chance. I have no idea from this noob perspective, so it’s time to hit the books, so to speak.

Ding 31; Huntr has a hat in STV

By 5 Comments

I got Huntr a hat and some new shoulders yesterday for his arrival to Hammerfall. I finished up what I had to do there and got the FP and got right off to Grom’gol via the Org zep. I’m done with the Tiger 1&2 and Panther 1&2 quests already. I’m starting the Raptor Mastery, but those are higher level mobs.

I’d love to write more, but I have a job to keep. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ding 14; Paladr Is Still Ahead of Joana

By Leave a Comment

I hit 14 this morning and even completed my level 12 questline to get Redemption. I’ll be hankering for another hearth to ride up to SM soon if I run into difficulty with mobs in the near future. Level 14 skills are Blessing of Wisdom, which should avoid drinking time and my current Holy Light healing spell is a bit weak when I’m getting whacked by 2 mobs (the preferred method of powerleveling).

I was pretty sure I bought Paladr some new boots last night, but they never arrived for him. I was kind of disappointed, because it was going to match his pants better. No point in having a “holier than thou” toon if you don’t look the part, right?

A New Powerleveler Is in Town

By 5 Comments

I’ve heard pallys are a good solo class, but I was under the impression that they are slow to level. This does not appear to be the case,ย  as I’m now beating [tag]Joana’s[/tag] time by almost 30 minutes at level 12. I got Paladr to 12 this morning in 3h 27m vs Joana’s 3h 50m to 12. His level 13 came after 5 hours. I am about 60% of the way through the level, in Ghostlands, and was somewhere around 4 hours when I logged off.

Slow, my butt.

I haven’t died since that one mistake with those STUPID MURLOCS!! Have I mentioned that I hate [tag]murlocs[/tag]? Anyway, I’ve never even been close to getting it put to me again. Making sure I’m keeping things even, I checked, and Joana has a bank alt and uses them when he’s compressing the video of his run. Therefore, my using Bankr is keeping us on level ground, and I got Paladr some nice armor to equip this morning. I got a really nice dagger from a rare elemental, [tag]Eldinarcus[/tag], but I can’t use a dagger. I put a bid on a nicer sword this morning, but I’m afraid I’m a little tied to swords until Iย go to UC and Org.

I still haven’t trained my level 12 things yet, but knowing what quests are coming up next, I think I will take the delivery to SM earlier than I would otherwise so I can train up a better [tag]Blessing of Might[/tag] and Seal/[tag]Judgement of the Crusader[/tag]. Yay for [tag]Redemption[/tag], too!

Introducing Paladr, Level 10… Beating Joana’s Time

By 5 Comments

I created [tag]Paladr[/tag] earlier last week and finally took him for a spin last night, trying to catch up with [tag]Mindkiller[/tag]’s and [tag]Snowstormer[/tag]’s new hunter alts, [tag]Jolygreen[/tag] and [tag]Shurshot[/tag]. They were level 10 when I logged in last night. They were 11 this morning, and I almost caught up to them. Paladr is at 2h 24m to level 10. YES!! Nearly 1 hour ahead of [tag]Huntr[/tag]!! Not only that, but it is faster than Joana’s own best time in his guide. He hit 10 at 2h 32m. Buy [tag]Joana’s Horde Guide[/tag] if you want to level alts like this. I’ve got them all memorized up through level 10 now, so it goes really, really fast. I died once…stupid, but other than that, it’s been smooth sailing.

I took on [tag]Jewelcrafting[/tag] and [tag]Blacksmithing[/tag] for professions, which will both be expensive, so I dove back into the AH with both of the bank alts. I have Butterbanker and Bankr working hard. Bankr is over 1g now, and Butterbanker should have up around 10g for the guild when everything sells. I’ve enabled money, bags, and inventory on all of my toons in my [tag]RPG Outfitter[/tag] profiles. I haven’t added the link for Paladr or the bank toons yet, but you can get to them by changing the name in the address bar when you click Huntr. I downloaded GuildProfiler again this morning, but didn’t get it installed to export our new [tag]Buttered Monkeys[/tag].
