Creeping up on 60...
Posted 10-26-2009 at 10:45 AM by Poyzon
The druid team hit the border of 52/53 this morning. My main hit 53, while everyone else is on the edge of 52/53. I'm still on a 4 levels/day pace since the last time I blogged, though I really don't think we're going to be able to level another group fast enough before we hit the RAF expiration.
Hinterlands provided a BIG boost last night and I still have a handful of quests to do there. In particular, I picked up all the quests I could. When I went to turn them in (about 8-10 of them), I ended up with nearly 2 full levels gained. I think I actually went from 49 to 51, which means I blew through my new abilities at 50 on all the characters. Before logging, I did manage to train everything. The 3 Boomkins now have Force of Nature (which summons 3 trees). My resto now has Tree of Life form, so it's fun to see 10 trees standing around you. I'll have to posture and take a screenshot sometime.
The next time I play (probably tomorrow morning), I'll hit Hinterlands and finish up the last of those quests, which should bring me to or beyond 54. After that, we'll head off to Western Plaguelands where we've got about 27 quests lined up for the push to 58. Then it's off to Hellfire Peninsula for a good boost in gear and XP on the way to lvl 60.
Oh, now that I have a full-blown tree in the group, I really need to rework my macros. Casting heals while in Boomkin form causes a drop out of form. While it's not the end of the world, it does cause a drop in DPS, so I may have to rework those macros and make my tree my main healer with Boomkins for backup.
On a completely unrelated note, I got TF2 working this weekend. Turns out there's some config in my router (which I was just using as a hub) that was preventing me from connecting. I swapped it out with a NetGear hub I had lying around and life is better.
