Ding

I ran through quests like never before yesterday. Like I said yesterday, I left for work with 16%. After 1 hour after work, I was at 41% and already done with 3 more quests. I ran down to Spinebreaker Post and picked up that flight point to log off to make dinner.

I got on at 8:00 again and played until I was at 91%. I was really, really getting tired of dying from Alliance and the stupid Cauldron by Zeth’Gor that I needed to transmute the Bleeding Hollow Blood for [60] Boiling Blood.

My loot upgrades were: Desolation Rod and Rod of the Unyielding.

I also got all of the Hellfire Spineleaves I needed to save a wounded orc. I killed all of the Unyielding Footmen, Knights, and Sorcerers. I found 30 Zeppelin parts scattered all over the place. I got 12 Ravager Eggs in Razorthorn Trail. There must have been 10 other quests in there somewhere, but it was happening too fast to keep track of it all for you, so I’m sincerely sorry. I really wanted to ding, and I’ll be 60 by the weekend, pretty much for sure.

I have also noted a severe lack of cloth gear for quest rewards so far. There have been 3 rewards that I’ve received or will receive when I’m done that have totally un-equippable items. Nice Vendor Trash money, but useless, nonetheless.

My total time /played now is 11d, 17h, 54m, 20s.

I had a heck of a time getting anything done last night because of the world servers going up and down like yo-yos. I tried logging in to Deadr, thinking maybe maybe maybe I could level him out if sleep didn’t overcome me. I logged in fine, but after the loading screen, it said the world server was down. I tried 2 more times to no avail.

Time for Gitr to get some playtime, then. I got on him just fine. I went to the east first to kill some orcs to get a Cursed Talisman for Ill Omens [58]. That was fine and all, until I aggroed to many after I already had the drop. I corpse-rezzed and turned it in. The next quest, Cursed Talismans [58], looked like I needed to kill a lot of those guys to get the drops I needed. I really need to level some before I start into like-level mobs. My gear really, really sucks. I suppose I could go finish some old-world stuff for XP to get another level under my belt.

I have to show you the screenshots to believe how I got to complete the Deathclasp quest and picking up the satchel. I uploaded my profile, so it is available as soon as RPG puts it through.

My action started off with heading South out of Cenarian Hold to go after the other quest items from the various exoskeletal buggers around. I got my last 6 drops after about 25 kills, and turned them in. On my way back out to see about what level the mobs for the quest to free the spirits of 8 Tortured Druids and 8 Tortured Sentinels in Southwind Village were (The Spirits of Southwind [55]), I saw Kamaz again.

This time, I tried to communicate a little better than waving and not whacking each other. I read somewhere that you can read opposing text by putting in spaces. I got him to follow me, but I’m not sure he ever understood that he could talk back.

Once we got to Deathclasp, he said /thank and we started in on him and his 2 bodyguards. After we killed him the first time, we were soon joined by another Alliance rogue who was probably wondering what the heck was going on. An Alliance and Horde team killing a level 59 Elite? NO!!! Yes, my friends, it happened. Several times. [Read more…] about Ding 56, Deathclasp Goes Down With a Surprise
