I hit 18 this morning before logging, and got up to 50-something percent after turning in quests. I’ll be spotty again in my play today, but probably getting on again tonight after Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
I sent Butterbanker a gold and a bunch of greens.
/played 11h 0m to level 18…buy the guide, people. Don’t waste your time playing 1-58 when all you want to do is play in Outlands.
It’s my 6th month wedding anniversary, so this is my first log-in since this morning. I checked Butterbanker and he has almost 4 gold. I’ve made some lucrative purchases that are coming out pretty nicely. That’s it for now. I’ll be on late again tonight.
Huntr hit 15 last night. He’s almost 16 because of the way the quests are falling. He dinged while questing and has more to turn in for XP. I updated his progress page. /played 7h 50m to 15.

Huntr got to levels 12 and 13 last night and hit 14 this morning and logged right away to get to work. The process is going pretty smoothly for starting out with absolutely no money or equipment support. The biggest adjustments are:
I got Butterbanker to SM and bought a couple of things for 2s in hopes that they go for 10-12s like they should. Huntr is doing okay with money now, so I will start sending Butterbanker money after each training session.
Leveling with a hunter is certainly easier than it was with a mage, as there is positively no downtime right now. Unless I do something stupid, I also have no fear of dying, but that’s not to say I haven’t. I hate murlocs, by the way.
/played 6h 34m – see Huntr’s progress on his Journey Page to the right. Yay for Joana’s Guide. I’m following it to the T (with the possible exceptions of training out of order), so these are the results the guide gives you.

You have been playing a toon long enough you don’t want to leave them behind as you move to a new server for any number of reasons; queues, spamming, old enemies, ex-significant others, etc. Almost all of us have abandoned a toon or two or ten. So, how do you move them over? Here is [tag]how to transfer your WoW toons[/tag] 101.
The process is actually pretty simple. First, [tag]Blizzard[/tag] has a bunch of rules associated with transfers, but they can mostly be boiled down into several points. Check out their official info for the most up-to-date server statuses at World of Warcraft Billing. You will need to enter in your account name and password and it will also check what realms are available for transfer at that moment.
Now for the guidelines according to the Blizz FAQ: [Read more…] about How to Transfer Your WoW Toons

I finished his level 10 quest this morning and dinged 11 (/played 4h 5m, putting him 18m ahead of Frostr) just in time to log off and go to work. I was unable due to a complete lack to funds to have gear good enough to do some of the quests that I wanted to at the proper level, but now that I have a pet, I’ll tear right through them.
I also confirmed that my instructions on my Level 10 Blood Elf Hunter Quest Walkthrough are correct, and I took more screenshots to prove it. If it’s not working this way, one of two things is happening: you are not level 10 or you are not a hunter. If those two things are not the case, then contact a GM and tell them Gitr sent you. ๐
I’m posting these shots and stuff in the walkthrough when I’m done here.

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the guild lately; probably ten times more than I want to let my wife know about. It’s not really been a stressful time, but I do feel some immediate sense of a need to succeed. We have a very good group of players, all of whom have toons over 60 on their own realms and have gone out of their way to re-roll and run with other bloggers. Now we are either re-rolling or transferring, possibly wasting days of playing to abandon a toon or two.
We had enough people (at times, myself included; just look at my [tag]ganking[/tag] rants on the blog) who are feeling unwelcome on [tag]Burning Legion[/tag] by the other faction. Being the insensitive type that I am, I just passed it off as whining for a while, and then I realized that I have been getting pissed a bit more than normal myself. I had gone through the upper 50s with Deadr without too much trouble because people were either my level or too busy playing in [tag]Outlands[/tag] to bother him.
We discovered that [tag]Kargath[/tag] was over-populated, that some didn’t want to RP, and others still want PvP. [Read more…] about What Makes for a Good Move?
