Happy Easter, all.
I dinged 23 this morning. /played 23h 20m.
Off to church and family stuff for the day. I’ll be back on later tonight for updates, if not just taking pics for putting up in the morning.

Ding 22; Loving Teleport
/played: 20h 36m @ level 21.
After picking up my Staff of the Sun in Deatholme with the help of Jikksta and the willingness to take a zep by Kelthias, I finished out the questline by going to UC after I turned in Kel’gash’s Head. Of course, being in the mage quarters in SM simply meant using the orb to teleport to UC, walk over to the portal trainer, and learn the UC teleport spell.
After speaking to Lady Sylvanas Windrunner, I needed to go speak to Warchief Thrall in Org. Hmm…how should I best go about that? I opted for the instant teleport rather than waiting for a stupid blimp and all of that running involved. Then he wanted me to go back to SM! LOL. I teleported again, with much glee and delight.
I’m up in Ashenvale for now, but not for long, I think. I’ll get some pretty good questing done in The Barrens, I’m sure. What did you do last night?
Ding 21; Exalted with Tranquillien
It was a fine time doing stuff all by my lonesome doing questing and following Joana’s Horde Leveling Guide pretty closely. There are a couple of times that I’ve done a quest that I didn’t need to, or gone to a trainer when he didn’t say, but then again, I can teleport. When you aren’t playing straight through, too, you can use hearth more often to fly to a city and then hearth back when he says in the guide.
Kelthias asked me in guild chat last night how I like the guide. I LOVE it! I have all of the maps I need, all the paths to take, all the areas to find kill quest mobs, videos for help, and it’s all in an organized manner to eliminate backtracking.
/played: 18h 28m @ level 21.
Ding 20; Camping in Orgrimmar
I logged in this morning and put out an immediate call for assistance with my last 2 Elite kill quests in Ghostlands. No answer ever came, so I ended up grinding out my last 30 minutes in Deatholme. I trained in Silvermoon and got great new stuff, with more to come when I stop at other cities (slaps self for not stopping in Undercity).

Note: that list doesn’t count all the upgraded spells and Teleports that are currently available.
I really wish that I could have spent some time at my destination killing things before leaving for work, but I suppose that will have to wait until tonight. I need to go to the mage trainer in Org and pick up the teleport, flight point, and a bunch or Runes of Teleportation from a reagent vendor before heading out to my questing area.
Ding 19; 2 Elite Ghostlands Quests Left
I am at 72% of level 19 and have 20,100/21,000 reputation for Tranquillien. Mindkiller joined me for some double-mage fighting in Deatholme. I’m tired. I’m happy. Did I mention that I’m tired?
I really don’t have much to say now, except that I was considering pulling an all-nighter, but I should do the smart thing for the bod and get some sleep before my brain cells shut themselves down sometime around 10:00 in the morning, never to come back online again.
I can’t wait to hit 20 and want to see what those spells are, as I’m saving it as a surprise for myself when I get to the trainer.
Ding 17; Revered with Tranquillien
I hit Revered in level 16 and kept going about my business. I got some help from Jikksta to complete the Knucklerot quest. I only have the troll quests and the Deatholme quests left to go, and then it’s on to The Barrens.
I may have to grind a level at some point to get some extra spell damage since I get a good number of resists at times, depending on the level of the mobs that Joana’s guide calls out. Still, I hit 17 in under 11 hours of /played time.
I didn’t get to play all that long this weekend, but all things considered, another 2 levels is fine by me.
