I am friended with 2 other players right now, and the first one is expiring tomorrow. So obviously we wanted to get as close to 60 as possible, and honestly 58 was enough for me since that is where the Outlands quests start in Thrallmar. Last night we got another run in Stratholme and both dinged 58. My hunter actually hit 59 and my friend, which is a Warrior, hit 58. So we will be starting in Thrallmar this weekend.
I don’t think I have blogged about this yet, but I started a new priest a few weeks ago on the Recruit-a-Friend program with yet another person (this is my 4th refer bonus reward) This was a random person in my guild who I did not know, that wanted to run up a couple of toons to 60 with the Triple XP. So I deleted my first priest and started a new one. We ran together up to 30, then I put the priest down and ran my Hunter with him, who dinged 50 over the weekend. So yesterday, I got him to login while my priest was online and lvl grant me from 30 to 47.
I had a good time this weekend, running the priest around Silverpine Forest and The Barrnes, picking flowers. I leveled his Herbalism several levels and used the mats to level his Inscriptions. When I learned how to make Glyphs, the very low, first few ones, I made one of each and put them on the Auction House. They are selling for anywhere from 8-29 Gold. It seems that right now, Inscriptions is a good way to make money, so I will definately be continuing with this process!
Hunter dinged 30 2 days ago on the refer-a-friend program. I do not get to play him much because my friend works 2 jobs, so we try and level them when we can. We also started 2 new toons, in hopes that we’ll have time before the 90-day trial expires, to take both of them to 60. I now have a Rogue.
I didn’t quite realize that it had been an entire month since I had written here, so I am going to post an update for all the toons I have been working on since the last entry.
The Warrior:
I ran Kara for the first time just a few nights ago. I never really got into Raiding with the Warrior, mostly because most people want me to tank and I don’t like tanking. At one time, I got very burned out on the Warrior, but lately since re-specing to ARMS, I have been enjoying him more. I plan to level him to 80 once WOTLK comes out next week.
The Warlock:
With the new patch, 3.0.3, that dropped 2 days ago, you can now get the Dreadsteed from the TRAINER at level 61! It cost me 510g for the riding lessons, something which I didn’t have to buy for the level 30 mount, and the horse itself was 17g. My goal is to get the Warlock to 70 before WOTLK drops. Last night I quested with him in Nagrand and ran Underbog, and finished the night around 65% through level 66. I will definitely hit 67 with him tonight and see how far I can get him.
The Mage:
The Made is at level 51 and I have put him on a temporary hold in order to spend time leveling the Warlock to 70.
The Shaman:
I have been running the Shaman for the last few weeks on the Refer-a-Friend program with a friend who has a Warlock. We are both around level 40 and it didn’t take much time to get there. It isn’t uncommon to get 9500+ XP for a quest turn-in at this level with this triple XP bonus.
The Hunter and The Twink:
These 2 names are the same toon. I started a hunter a while back, only because I didn’t have one and I wanted to see what they were like. In my opinion, there are too many hunters on the server. Anyway, after I started him and ran him up to around level 8, a friend on the server said that I should Twink him out and bring him into a Twink guild that he had. So we ran him through Deadmines and Wailing Caverns, getting some good leather armor drops and weapons for him and I started running Warsong Gulch with him last week. THAT IS FUN! He already has over 1000 kills and I have bought 2 new PvP pieces of gear with the honor I received. Our goal is to get them Exhaulted with Warsong Outriders, and then level them to 29 and start on Arathi Basin.
