Gitr Knows WoW

I remember this stage of my development with Gitr vividly. Ice Thistle Yetis, running around the lake, avoiding the spirits, hunting bears and cats, and then doing suicide run after suicide run in the cave with the dragonspawn to get teleported to the top of the mountain. It was February 9th, 2006, almost 1 year ago.

Now, The Burning Crusade is coming out, and Deadr is nearly halfway to 54, and getting his Devout Gloves to get a +200 Armor bonus. I would already have the Devout Belt, but no one has posted it in the AH yet.

I got ganked while hunting the Shamans and Ursas. I had just finished killing a level 57 Ursa, had about 240 mana, and got a bright flash of light coming out of my head toward the heavens, and I dropped dead. I saw a Moonkinned level 60 stand there for a few seconds and run off. Thanks, buddy.

I finished the 10 Thick Yeti Hides, and killed about 10 Ice Thistle Matriarchs and Patriarchs in the cave before I decided that I should go to work and get paid instead of playing a game. No one had dropped a Pristine Yeti Horn yet. I saw that the drop rate was around 2%…this will get some XP to finish the quest. It might be a better use of my time for XP’s sake to move on.

I flew into Winterspring this morning because the Winterfall quest mobs are East of Everlook. I picked up the quest to kill Ursius, which, if he is level 56, I should be able to solo him with no problem. I read that he has 12K HP, but I can blast through that as long as he doesn’t resist everything.

I killed about 6 Yetis and got 2 Thick Yeti Furs . I have all 8 Den Watchers that I need, but I’m having to pick my way through to get to Shamans and Ursas that are low enough and far enough away from patrols. I can kill the 57 Ursas, and I’m not sure I want to try to kill a 58 with how many resists I get from the 57s.

I logged off with 10% of the level done already. Brighthouse is coming over between 11 and 2 today to install out HD-DVR, so I’ll play until he comes.
