I had the day off for THIS?

What a miserable day of PuGs in Sunken Temple and Zul’Farrack. One person after another showed themselves to be incompetant playing their class, or dropped out due to either rudeness or needing to go for one reason or another. After 2 1/2 hours of dinking around in ZF, I’d had it and rode back to Gadgetzan to repair and fly to Feralas. Mid-flight, they begged me to come back because they needed a healer. I, sadly, let them summon me. It sucked too.

I’m almost 70% of the way through level 47 now, and I’m still enjoying Feralas. Just before logging, I bought enough runecloth and rugged leather to craft my way from 290 to 300 Tailoring. Ding! 300. I’m happy with that. Now to get to level 57 to wear the good stuff.

Ding 47: Yetis help pave the way

By 3 Comments

I hit 47 this morning after a couple more quests and a ton of grinding for the Rage Scar Yetis in Feralas. The drop rate for their Pristine hides is around 19% and I need 6 more for the quest. Alas, there was no good gear on the AH for me, so I’m on my way back for more hides. I managed to get a Perfect hide to drop, so I can turn that one in at the same time.
I guess everyone is back at work today. No one is taking my offers for LFG in more than 2 hours.

Clearing up Level 46

I’ve been running quests like crazy in Feralas and dinged 46 on Saturday afternoon. I didn’t play yesterday, but I’m over 60% through now and get to play all day tomorrow. I hope to hit 48 tomorrow and 50 by the end of the week.

We’re off to my wife’s parents’ house for Christmas dinner. I may not get on tonight, but if I do, I think I’m going to turn in a quest in Azshara.

ZF 2.0

I ran ZF for the second time ever last night. We did it in under 2 hours and killed EVERYTHING. We were 4 squishies and a warrior. Not just any warrior. Serenity in Chaos has a HWL warrior that was helping out his guildie when we realized that we had no tank. It was 2 priests, a ‘lock, and a mage. I got the Mojo Mask off the boss at the bottom of the temple.

I dinged level 45 while I was standing on the right side railing at the top of the temple during the 5-6 minute skirmish. That was pretty cool. I was eating up XP all night, usually to the tune of 350-380 per kill. I went from 72% of level 44 to 34% of level 45 after I turned in my quests, too. I could run ZF one more time tonight and get another ding out of it.

Rolling again…Bowr’s the name

By 3 Comments

I got the itch for playing a hunter again. I will be concentrating on leveling Deadr to 60 for the expansion, but I really wanted to make sure I could get the name reserved that I wanted. I researched the racial abilites and had a really hard time deciding between an orc and a troll. I must have debated for a full 2 minutes with myself. 🙂 I went back to the Priest’s Haven to research because I knew they had comments on the racial abilities.

No maintenance on Tuesday!

YAY!!! I had completely not accounted for my one day to play all day long being eaten up by server maintenance. I just read on WoW Insider that Blizzard can go longer than a week now, and is going to start using a live update system that reboots the server during off-peak hours.
