Ding 48; Searing Gorge Is Rough

June 15, 2007 By Gitr 2 Comments

I came home yesterday and played for 30 minutes before taking a nap… until dinner time. I was tired from the stinking Devil Rays game the night before. We got home around 11:30 and two of my co-workers called in sick. I was tired and unmotivated without any company. So…

I dinged 48 with 3d 17h 41m /played time. This morning I went to Grom’gol to train my next level of Aspect of the Hawk to get an additional 20 AP. I think that was worth the 5 minute flight back to Searing Gorge.

My current problem is finding enough Taskmasters and Slavers to kill. I’ll also need to kill a ton of Steamsmiths to get the Smithing Tuyere, although I already have the Lookout’s Spylass that dropped after 2 kills.

Ding 47; Quest Log Is Busting Open

June 13, 2007 By Gitr 9 Comments

Full Quest LogI dinged last night after about 5 minutes with 3d 14h 57m /played time. Then it was party time to turn in all of the quests in my log. It was getting ridiculous, with quests all over Azeroth to turn in.

I made my way back to STV to continue several more quests after turning in about 10 of these. I am still missing one part of a 3 item quest for Maurey’s Clubbed Foot, I believe. I have a ring and something else, but I didn’t wait around long enough at one place for the item to drop. Luckily, there is another quest near there for tonight, so I’ll hearth back after I get the item to get the next leg of the quest.

I logged off this morning at 55% of the way through level 47 with barely over an hour of playing time and checked to see that I have over 120g on Velen to play around with. I am getting frustrated with Herbalism and may pick up Tailoring. The only thing stopping me from doing that is having two tailors when I transfer Deadr will be a waste.

What did you do last night?

Ding 43; Almost Done with STV

June 4, 2007 By Gitr 5 Comments

Huntr at 43I completed Nessingwary’s hunter questline with the downing of King Bangalash, a level 43 Elite and his two level 33 (/cough /laugh) spawns. The reward bow was a complete joke compared to my current crossbow, so that was a bit of a letdown. I then hearthed to Booty Bay and turned in one more quest to get my ding with 3d 2h 12m of /played time.

King Bangalash DownI’m on my way to Thunder Bluff to turn in Frostmaw and hit the AH with almost 75g to spend if I need to.

On a slightly personal note, it will be a crazy week at work because I launched a new database for another department and I need to create all of the reports that my boss will undoubtedly request by Thursday. I’ll be checking for comments, but unable to reply to any until lunch.

Comment away about how your weekend went.

Ding 42; Back in STV for More

June 1, 2007 By Gitr Leave a Comment

Huntr at 42 with Tiggr at 41.I finished level 41 in just over 3 hours because of pitiful drop rates on croc items and dragon drops. I trained up and found level 42 skills quite disappointing. I will be dropping Tiggr’s skills and adopting more of BRK’s tips on pet attributes. I was going about his stuff pretty blindly, not thinking it made much difference. BRK has since educated me otherwise.

Anyway, back to leveling, Huntr got to level 42 in 2d 22h 39m /played time and dinged at the precise moment stated by Joana’s Horde Guide. It was quite nice, so maybe my time wasn’t all that bad, seeing as how I pretty near had to kill all of that stuff anyway to get that much XP.

MoneyFu report

The guide has me in STV for quite a while, but I enjoy wrapping that stuff up because I know Tanaris is coming soon. I love all the stuff Tanaris has to offer.

I logged in this morning to over 30 sold auctions on Bankr. It was quite a glut. I’d emptied my mailbox and posted everything I had at a deep discount from HSP, but well above what I paid for things. Here is how that turned my money situation around.

What did you do today?

Ding 41; Blew Through Level 40

May 30, 2007 By Gitr 2 Comments

I didn’t even have to grind one second for level 41 and got there in under 2 1/2 hours with a total /played time of 2d 19h 29m. I reached it before I was supposed to, most likely because of drop rates with the buzzard wings. Badlands is so good for leveling when there are quests associated with all of the killing. There are tons of mobs, but they aren’t really aggro nets like other places.

I think I’m done with Badlands, or at least for a while. I already killed the patrolling orge boss, a 45. I put Hunter’s Mark on him and sent in Tiggr to Intimidate him right off the bat. I struck him with Serpent Sting and kept nailing him with Arcane Shots as often as it cooled down. As soon as he went down, I started running because Tiggr was down to 15% health after taking a beating from 6 mobs at one time. I got away and came back 20 seconds later to loot the body.

I’ve got all the pages for the Green Hills of Stranglethorn, so I’m off to turn those in and run all the way to Swamp of Sorrows.

I see Ravenkiller hit level 30 last night. Gratz, man. What else did you all do last night?

Moments from Level 40 Mount

May 27, 2007 By Gitr 1 Comment

I turned in my quests after I hit 39 and Joana’s guide said that I should be about halfway to level 40. I was at about 40%, so, yeah, give or take, I was halfway. Then I almost cried when it said to grind to level 40. I could look for things to do around level 40, quest-wise, but that would involve traveling, too. So I started after different mobs than the guide, opting for leel 40-41 mob XP rather than 37-39s.

It got so friggin’ boring, I’m turning in for the night. I’ve got 45 minutes left to go in the morning before we head to the beach for the day. I’m gonna get that bird sometime tomorrow.

Gold update: I have 127g on Velen between my toons, with more up in auctions.
