Best 20g I ever spent:

Now I actually have a reason to cast Polymorph

Mage is still progressing nicely by the way, currently at 63, 64 or 65 tomorrow and then pushing into Northrend in the next 2 weeks.

What more do I need to say, yay me!

No more riding round stupid elephants. I call him Captain Yawny.

I also got to just shy of level 61. No time for much gaming this weekend, but Lets hope 65 at least by the end of next week, if not more!

Woot!

Well, that was relatively painless to be honest. I went to Outlands at 58 and quickly made it to 60, whilst improving my gear quite significantly. I was still wearing random greens from like level 32.

Next step is to try and work on my Darnassus rep, so I can ride a nice tiger instead of a stupid oversized elephant.

In other news, Dan, I’m holding you to this:

and yet more leveling… that’s been my time in WoW recently.

As you can see in the banner above, I took my first step through the dark portal at lvl 58 today. This makes the *thinks* 6th character that I’ve done this on. It’s becoming a habit. Anyway, I started out the weekend at 51 or 52, and am currently sat at 59, so that’s pretty good going really. I also have Herbalism up to about 310, and Tailoring at 290ish. All in all a pretty productive weekend gaming wise.

I love seeing a full quest log of completed quests, mmmmm…

Leveling Mage as Frost spec just seems to be getting easier and easier. All the crit and freeze talents make killing things ridiculously easy, to the point where entering Outlands at 58 has been a complete breeze. On previous characters I’ve had a few issues until I hit 59 or 60. Not much to report really as far as leveling or playing alliance goes, this week I’ve been mostly just keeping my head down and getting on with it.

We did try and 3 man Ony however, with Theira at 80 (I think?) on his Shaman, Dan at 71 on his warrior, and me at somewhere in the mid 50s. Below is a graphical representation of what Ony thought when Dan asked for some loot:

You get the idea anyway. Suffice to say stage 2 took forever, and we died at the start of stage 3. She stomped his sh*t. We came back the next day with a couple more people and managed to kill her though. I was disappointed Mage T2 head didn’t drop, but whatever.

Still spending the majority of my time pondering on what class to play next. I’m currently debating between male Draeni priest (for the proverbial lulz), female NE DK (for the baaaaaa) or female human paladin (for the….. plate armour). Trying my best not to actually start on these though, hoping to ping through Outlands as fat as possible, then break into Northrend. Not too far behind everyone else in the guild now!

Might have a Fire spec impressions post soon, my resec trigger finger is getting itchy.

Not so much alt anymore… I haven’t logged onto my Death Knight in a couple of weeks now, and my little mage is currently sat at level 48. This has represented a pretty concerted effort to get through the first 30 levels on my part, to try and avoid getting bored and wandering away. I’m hoping to hit 55 by the end of next week (if not more) and then into Outlands 2 weeks from now. Then onwards to 80!

Leveling as Alliance is still fairly interesting.

Although quite a few of the quests overlap, there’s also some fairly different ones thrown in there for good measure. A notable one being catching raptors with a rope:

It’s also still quite cool seeing different areas of zones. There’s a few nooks and crannies I never really explored on any horde characters, which are still turning up new camps of ogres, or cool pieces of scenery etc. It’s not that exciting, but it’s just about enough to make it feel different so that I don’t get bored and wander off.

I’m also quite enjoying leveling mage. With evocations cool down being only 4 mins now, I usually only have to drink once in between cool downs, meaning I don’t spend toooo much time drinking.  I’ve stuck all my talents into the frost tree so far, and that’s working pretty well. The insane crit change and decent damage limitation and control make killing most things pretty easy. I’m considering trying out the other trees just for experience, but I think I might leave that until Northrend when I start to get some half decent gear and have more time in between dings to try things out. I think swapping around might slow me down too much right now. Besides, my gear is abysmal. (No not abyssal)

Sooooo bored of Azeroth though, bring on Outlands!
