| New Year, New Game |
| Wednesday, January 7, 2009 |
Ki'Leana brought in the New Year at level 80. She leveled doing quests in the newest Hemet Nesingwary area of Sholazar Basin in Northrend. (That Nesingwary guy sure gets around!) It was Saturday the 3rd when she actually leveled but I was off on a long weekend so I considered it bringing in the New Year. lol
Since then the game has a new feel. It's always that way when you hit the highest level. One thing I am missing though is the flying mount. So since leveling I have been grinding mats for sale because Ki'Leana still doesn't have near enough gold for a flying mount. It's been a pain but for some reason I never paid enough attention to her money level. Had I not disenchanted all the drops and quest rewards, I would have the flying mount already. But until she was 78 I didn't start taking it seriously. Oh well. It will come eventually.
I have also been researching Healers Specs so I can respec for raids. I need to respec Holy and I have been putting it off.
The funny thing about Raids so far is that Ki hasn't done any. After all the hub-bub the Guild was raising, bugging me to get her to 80, Raids haven't been regular. I did notice last night that 2 new Raids have been scheduled this week so maybe the Holiday break was the issue. At any rate, we are doing a 25 man Naxx run this Friday evening and I need to respec before that. Wish us luck. :)
This is the talent build I plan on trying for Ki'Leana's first attempt at healing a Raid. I found it via Tentonhammer.com. It seems to me to be a good one for Raids and other groups. I really don't look forward to questing again after the respec but whatever.....
There was a discussion over the weekend between myself and some Guild Officers that maybe they wanted Ki'Leana to stay Shadow for Raids. I kind of liked that idea and it may be Ok eventually. But we recently lost 2 of the main Healers for the Guild so for now, Ki needs to be Holy.
Otherwise, I have also been having some fun with Pallanen lately. I got burned out questing so I decided to try and get Baron Rivendares Mount in Stratholme. Pally has been running thru Strat alsmost every night now for about 10 days. It is just for fun but she gets a lot of valuable drops. Lots of blues that sell for a few gold a piece so she is actually making money while killing things.
I read that the Mount is a very rare drop. Something like 0.2% drop rate (according to Thottbot). Other places say the drop rate is even worse. I even read that one guy ran Strat 143 times and gave up without ever getting the mount. But I also read that someone got it the first try. No matter. Pallanen is having fun, getting a ton of Runecloth for Merenwen, and generally doing what she does best. That is, killing everything that comes at her and then laughing at them. lol
After the 3rd day of running Stratholme I finally realized that I should be working on Pallanens rep with the Argent Dawn. Why not? She was doing all those runs. Might as well make it more worth her while. So I got the Argent Dawn trinket that allows for collection of Scourgestones and that stuff and I also accepted some of the low level Stratholme quests I had never done. Doing all that, it won't be long before Pally is exalted with that faction, which should help her achievement list.
One thing I did manage to do that felt really good was kill the Crusade's Courier. The one who rides the roads in the Eastern Plaguelenad with a group of 4 (or 5?) other elites. If you have been on the roads in the Eastern Plaguelands and have run into that group of elites with that Courier, you know what I'm talking about. They seem to pop up and kill you when you least expect it.
I was returning to Light's Hope Chapel after a run one night and saw that group on the road ahead. Memories of times when Pallanen was just a youngster doing quests in EPL flashed through my mind. Several times she was minding her own business when those elites jumped her and wiped her out. So when I saw them I knew they couldn't be allowed to live. lol I dismounted close to them, ran up on that group, built up Pallanen's Rage and charged into them. Within a few seconds all those nasty Crusaders were dead on the road. Pallanen enjoyed that bit of revenge. That was fun. lol
Silly, yes. But fun. We've discussed my penchant before (in earlier posts here) for getting revenge on the monsters who hurt my girls in the game. This was just another "feel good" vengeful moment. hee hee
So the game is changing for my girls again. Ki'Leana is 80 and starting full out Raiding. Pallanen will be on her way to 80 asap. Depends on when I get tired of running Stratholme. (Or if I get the mount soon.) Friday night should be interesting. Ki healing a 25 man Raid is like jumping into the fire right away. Hopefully it will go OK. I will try to detail Ki'Leanas first big raid over the weekend. Hopefully it will go well. |

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
