What Was I Waiting For Anyway? |
Wednesday, October 22, 2008 |
I have spent a lot of time leveling Ki'Leana while she was specced for Healing. By that I mean a lot of grueling, grinding and frustrating time. :P I had split talent points between Holy and Discipline, with an emphasis on Healing. It was taking forever to level. My friends kept telling me to spec Ki as Shadow for leveling but I resisted. I like Healing in groups. It's fun to me. But since the patch reset all the talents I decided to try out Shadow spec since it was a freebie respec. Now I am sorry I waited.
Shadow spec for leveling is awesome! Ki'Leana can now wipe up 3-4 monsters at a time with ease. She has no problem with mobs 2-3 levels higher than herself (solo or even 2 at a time). Plus she looks darn cool in Shadow Form. lol
What was I waiting for? :P
I respecced her on Friday evening and since then leveled 4 times to 66. If I had stayed with the Healing spec she would barely be 63 now. She has all these very cool talents that keep doing damage while she fights mobs. Ki stands toe to toe with them and keeps casting and they wither away to nothing in a very fast time. I don't even remember the last time I used her Wand for fighting. Usually I don't need the Shield anymore either.
My routine is to use most of the instant DOTs first. I do Vampiric Touch and Vampiric embrace and Devouring Plague first. Then Mind Blast which gives Ki'Leana health back, then Shadow Word Pain and Mind Flay. I do Mind Flay while the cooldown for Mind Blast is ticking down. Then I hit with Mind Blast again and the mob is dead. A lot of the time I don't even need to hit with Mind Blast twice. They die before I need to.
I have used Shadow Word Death at times (for fun) but usually I don't even have time to click before mobs die. Nice. :)
Last night I got training for the Shadow Fiend. I can't wait to use that to see how it works.
I was questing in Terrokar Forest last night and went into the Firewing area feeling a little dread, but it turned out to be just fine. Long ago, when I went there with Pallanen, the casters wreaked havoc on her. But they turned out to be easy kills for Ki'Leana. She is able to Silence them early and they come running to her. Then she kills them fast. Ki'Leana even did the escort quest there solo, no help at all. I was impressed.
So a bit of advice to anyone else hesitant to respec a Priest for a better leveling experience; try it out. Sometimes it will work out well. I think Ki'Leana may make 70 before the expansion comes out after all. She would already be 70 had I made her Shadow a few weeks ago. Duh! |

About Me |
Name: Jen
Home: Pennsylvania, United States
About Me: I started playing WoW after my best friend bugged me to play. I soon learned that I really liked it. Now 2 years later I still play and have 20 characters. LOL I am no gaming expert. I am no WoW expert. A lot of the terms and "how to do's" elude me still. But I love to play. All you will find here are the adventures of Pallanen and her sisters. I love them all and they really kick butt. So stay tuned and maybe we can learn stuff from each other that we never knew. xoxo
