So it’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything. I’m sorry to say my poor little Death Knight has been severely neglected in favor of my mage and my priest. My priest, which, by the way, has finally reached 70, and has her Enchanting up to 250, and Tailoring up to 390. I dropped quite a bit of gold into levelling her, and I’m immensely proud that I got her professions up. Her main spec is healing, though I have her duelspecced to Shadow for fun, RP purposes, and levelling.
Which, by the way, healing is a bitch, especially when you get idiots. Poor Wuko got saddled into an UK run with the promises of an 80 runing them through. I ended up healing 2 pet tanks before the group finally split. Definitely my worst healing ever, but as a friend told me, they should have gotten a tank instead of playing hunter-lock-pet games.
The mage has finally gotten his epic flyer; my first ever epic flyer since starting the game in July of 2007. Once again… immensely proud.
In general, I’m proud of my mage several times over. When I started playing the game, my schedule made it impossible for me to even hope of raiding. Beltravi, my rogue (Who sits at level 71 on Silvermoon) seemed to be forever doomed to vague Karazhan weeklies, and the occasional ZA. Most of her gear came from badges, and from doing the Sunwell dailies.
When we came to Sisters to roll as Horde, I’ll admit, I was disappointed. When word for the new expansion was coming around, the idea of being on the same level as those around me with my rogue was exciting. But I have to say, I don’t regret it anymore. Rolling Telkire was definitely a huge change for me. And I’ve come to enjoy playing a mage more then I ever thought I would. I’ve come to know the class, and I know I’ve come to play it well. There’s still a long way for me to go. But hey, I know I can get there.
Something that often astounds me as well, is the fact of where I’m raiding at. Before, I wasn’t really proud of my gaming. After all, to all appearances, I assumed myself to be a mediocore rogue compared to everyone getting T5 and T6 and god knows what else. And there I was, stuck slugging through Karazhan and praying that my boyfriend’s guild would take me through Zul’Aman. But now, here I am, in a great guild that’s not doing 10-mans, but 25-mans. Something I would have never even thought myself capable of doing back in the days of TBC. To be blunt, and possibly a bit immatureish/dorky, it just feels totally awesome to realize that I’m in a raiding guild that’s raiding the top available content. Sure, we’re not on Yogg-Saron yet, but hey, we’ve down two of the keepers, and our 10-man teams (Which, due to my work schedule, I can’t participate in) are already in Descent into Madness. (Or whatever it is.) I’m not just the casual-rank sitting on the sidelines watching, I’m actually participating.
Yeah. My thoughts are kind of rambling on and on tonight. I’m actually typing this as I’m auto-running through the Eastern Kingdoms on Keir to get the Flame Keeper title. Poor Keir, she’s my achievement whore, and my money whore. If I need a run-through for characters on my other account, I whore Keir out and run myself, Kungaloosh (Formerly Fear.Win), and my boyfriend and others through Outland dungeons.
Thankfully, other people have been talking about doing alt Naxx-10 runs, so poor Keir might actually get geared up soon. For now though… I do my dailies, use that money for other toons, and whore her out for EXP.
There’s just one question I have to ask… Why the hell did I just fly down to Booty Bay when I need to go to Grom’gol?
Fuck this noise. I’m going to grab some mountain dew game fuel and try to stop thinking. Otherwise I’ll keep rambling!
