Ding, 60

My new Priest dinged 60 yesterday. The guy on the end of our 5-man RAF chain that we created (I referred 1 guy, who referred another, who referred another… etc. There were 5 of us) got to 59 on his RAF toon, so he granted the next guy up, and it went up the chain from there. My Priest got granted from 53-59 yesterday, then I queued for a dungeon and dinged 60.

At 58 you can queue for Outlands dungeons or the higher Old World ones. I didn’t quite want to go to Outlands yet, I have been enjoying running the older dungeons and getting achievements. So I queued for Dire Maul, LBRS, Stratholme and Scholomance. LBRS was the first one to pop, and that was an enjoyable run. I do not think I have ever actually been into that dungeon before, so it was nice to see something “new”.

Tonight I think I will do the same thing again and hopefully get Strat, Scholo or DM for the achievement runs.

Leveling with LFD

When I originally created the categories on this site, they were for other toons who I have since deleted. Well, 2 of them were, anyway.

I originally had a Druid Thunderchicken named “Netherjape” that was around 60 when I deleted him. I tried questing with him and doing a couple of dungeons, but I just found that spec boring. I ended up deleting him to make room for another toon.

I also had a priest for a while that I deleted due to non-play. I forget his name, honestly. He was also around 60 when I deleted him but he was level granted several levels through the Refer-a-friend bonus, so I didn’t actually “play” him as much as it seemed like I did. I found him to be boring also, so I deleted him to make room for another again.

Then the LFD system opened up with a new patch….

I started a new druid and decided to level him as resto, since that is my favorite job in the game with my 80 Shaman and Pally. You are elligible for LFD at level 15, so I had to quest with him up to there, then it has been LFD and a few dungeon quests ever since, with him now sitting at level 47. I usually let him sit for a week or so before running him for a couple of days and burning up all his rest bonus, then I will put him down again.

Same thing with a new Priest and a new Shammy I started (I am addicted to Shammies, sue me…) The priest I ran with some other friends through RAF again (this was my 6th experience with RAF) and we mostly did LFD leveling with those guys. The priest is 52 at the time of this post. My new Shammy is only 26 but I am enjoying getting SP and Spirit gear on him to be a healer through LFD.

17 Levels in under a minute…

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!
