Azgalor Nights

Finally, after months of grindgin rep on a VERY casual basis (about once every-other week or so) I earned an EXALTED reputation with Netherwing last night, on my Shaman.  He is now at 57 mounts.

When you reach Exalted with Netherwing, an additional quest shows up on Netherwing Ledge where Illidan actually comes and talks to you, threatens you, and the drake that flys over Shadowmoon Valley all the time (I forget his name) comes and rescues you.  He takes you back to Shat, you turn in the quest, and choose 1 drake out of the 6 or 7 there, and that is the drake you have from now one.  I see no other way to get an additional drake, at this point.  The drake doesn’t cost any money.

I chose the Onyx Drake, pictured below.

Finally, after waiting around for a few months on an Occulus run, I got this achievement tonight.  Basically you have to do everyone dungeon in Northrend on Heroic mode, then you have to do Naxx, EOE and OS, any of those on either 10 or 25 man mode, to get this achievement.  Sadly I did the raids a long time ago and I am just now doing Occulus which was my last H Dungeon.  I just hate that one so much.

Also, I dinged 72 on my Prot Pally this evening.

Wow, sorry I have been lagging behind on this site.  Been playing too much WoW LOL.

The Mage is 80 and running daily Heroics for badges now.  With the 3.2 patch that came out last week, we can get some cool new gear from the Emblem of Conquest Quatermaster in Dalaran.  Several good pieces of item level 226 gear here.

The Shaman is doing well, he got his Ambassador title from doing the Argent Tournament Dailies for all 5 Horde cities, then got Exhalted with Sunreavers, and then with Argent Crusade.  The 5 cities plus Argent Crusade gives you the title “Crusader”  It also opens up 2 new Daily Champion quests, and the Sunreavers have 3 new quests.  All together, with the 4 original Champion quests, I can get 10 Champion Seals per day.  TONIGHT I will have my Argent Hippogryph.  W00t.

More updates later on the Argent Tournament quests…

On friday night we ran the Ulduar 25-man and I got this achievement.  I also got a couple of new pieces of gear and finally replaced my last 2 blues pieces of gear, my bracers and my chest piece.  My guild runs 25-man Ulduar every Friday night, so I plan to go again next week also.  The first wing is as far as I got this night, so hopefully next week we’ll get a bit further.

I am going to start trying to post something every day in this blog, since I play WoW just about every day anyway.  I want to keep a record of events that I do and find.

Last night we ran a 25-man Naxx which went pretty well. It was mostly a guild run, but we did have some PUGs also, and a few guildies who were new 80s.  We did just fine up to Thaddius where we died 3 or 4 times from the Polarity shifts.  I left shortly after that, not because I was upset, but I had to log off the game for a bit to go do something else.  I logged back in around 10pm ST and they were on Sapphiron: Kel’Thuzad’s gigantic frost wyrm guardian.  They downed him and I assume went on to KT, although I didn’t stay on long enough to find out.  Overall it wasn’t a bad run, but the run a couple of weeks ago went much smoother.

The Shaman

I dinged 80 a week ago on Thursday, March 5.  Last week I got guild runs with a new guild I am in.  We ran 25-man OS, 25-man VoA and 25-man Naxx.  Also, I was able to get in a PUG run for 10-man Naxx for the last 2 bosses, but we weren’t able to kill the last guy.  That’s what I get for running with PUGs.

Anyway, I now have 6 pieces of T7, level 213, gear.  My bonus heals are around 1660 with no buff, 1850 with a self-buff (earthliving weapon)  I’ve been running Heroics for achievements and mount drops.

Last night we ran H VH, H CoS and H UP and I healed all of them fine.  No wipes in any of them, but we had some pretty sicked DPS also, so the team was able to burn down all the bosses pretty fast.  This new guild is working out quite nicely.  My 80 Prot Pally is already a member, and I am thinking of moving my 63 Mage over to that guild once he hits 70.

The Shaman

I finally got this achievment done last night.  This was my 4th attempt; I tried twice with The Warrior and both of those groups were PUG’d and failed because no one wanted to take charge and lead (Including me since I had never done it before).  My 3rd attempt was with The Shaman and we did alright, the leader was very good, I thought, but no one wanted to listen to him, so that one also failed.  Last night, I got into a guild event that was running it.  I was invited by a friend of mine who is in that guild, so I went and ran it with him and we got the achievement.  This was a cool raid.  I am looking forward to doing it now with The Warrior and also The Paladin.

I started on these 2 quest lines with the Resto Shammy last week, who is now 73 (should ding 74 tonight)  The main reason for doing these rep daily quests is for the 2 mounts that they give, Netherwing gives the Netherdrake and Sha’Tari gives the Nether Ray.  I’m really enjoying the Resto Shammy, I got agro from a 72 Elite in Skettis when I was out there at 71.  I used every CD I had and healed myself 4-5 times, but I killed him.  He is becoming my favorite toon very fast.

The Shaman

Our Refer-a-friend bonus actually goes until Feb 5, but I am not sure that we will run any more toons before then. Last week, we got our 2 toons to 58 (my Paladin and my friend’s Warlock), and I was able to get level grants on both my Shammy and my Mage, so along with my Deathknight, I now have 4 toons around level 58.

It didn’t take any time at all to quest in Thrallmar with each toon from 58-60. My Shaman is now 61, about 20% through. I am planning on using him as a Resto Shammy for my guild.

So I have some work to do, to level 4 toons all the way to 80. This is on top of my main, The Warrior, who is already 80 and I am raiding with, and The Warlock who is 74, working his way to 80 also. I am going to concentrate on running the Shaman (who will be heals) and the Paladin (who will be Prot) up to 80, each as a DPS spec now, and then re-specing to their respective roles once they hit 80.

So I have some work ahead of me….

Recruit-a-Friend, The Mage, The Paladin, The Shaman

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.
