Over, and over, and over again!!!!!

Well it's been quite a while since I posted here, so much for keeping a track of my progress. I've moved on, even if ever so slightly. Morwena is now up to 66, Grundir iss 55, and everyone is at least 30, except my project.

Edril moved on to 33, don't ask me why I decided to level my Paladin, he still doesn't inspire me in any way shape or form. The project has gathered another 2 levels so is now a mighty 17. Next stop 18, then the world.

I've not had as much enthusiasm for the game recently, even given some moments of clarity, and finally completing Shadow Labyrinth. Gear wise I've finally picked up a piece of D3, but not that enthused, because it's actually not as good as what I have until it gets some gems or I get another piece of the set.

Onwards and Upwards

I seem to be making some decent progress on my characters, well everyone barring Renvik anyway.

Morwena has had a trawl round some of Outland now, and is now 61. Which isn't bad progress, especially considering it includes a complete run through Ramparts. So she is ready for Blood Furnace now. Hasn't been the lightning quick levelling of Renvik, but then it's no longer new, and rather than making things easier it appears to have kinda dulled my enthusiasm.

Grundir is stuck at 53 at the moment. I'm having trouble getting the motivation together to level him, he just isn't as fun as a lot of the other characters. Illiad has been left for a bit, but I will get back to him, truth is I know I can put in a little bit of time and get him up loads of levels. Edril is now at 30, and could well be there for some time. I still don't hugely like the Paladin, just seems a bit too much like a warrior with a couple of spells, so I got him to my target and he may be last on the list for going any further.

Orfeus, Derra and Vaeless have moved onto 26, and of course the goal here is to get them to 30 as soon as possible while continuing on with other characters. Once they are at 30 I will decide on one to run to 40, and just alternate through until they are all decent level.

My special project, has kinda stalled, Byz has decided to cut back her playing time which I full understand so I am now onto levelling the project alone. Could be a tough ask, but it's one I feel well capable of doing.

Last but not least, Silvena, I've kind of been inspired by two people who have been very important in my Warcraft life to level her. I was pretty mixed on the thought of a shadow priest, and after playing for a bit I still wasn't convinced, but a little bit of encouragement goes a long way. She is now 43, and after managing to solo Bangalesh I'm really starting to see the power there. Yes she needs to do more healing, and her damage isn't awesome yet but I believe when she gets access to Outland quality gear she will come into her own.

Anyway, now have a fixed idea of what I'm doing in terms of levelling so I'm all ready to rock and roll.

Woot-a-doodle-doo

Morwena was on a BRD run tonight, and while it was a lot slower and not as fine tuned as some runs I've been on it did the job in terms of getting quests finished, and on the second last hand in she dinged 58.

This may not seem like that much of an achievement, I mean 60 used to be the big level, but nowadays 58 and the Dark Portal are just as important in the evolution of a WoW character.

I guess I could have made things easier on myself with her, having gone Frost Spec from day 1 I really made things difficult for myself. Fire for levelling, Frost for End Game is the old adage. Well I've finally got there, and so my only guilded character is ready to make the journey through the portal.

We have a winner ...

in the new so bored I'd rather be having my teeth pulled competition.

Finally made 23 on Orfeus, this is probably the most painful a low level grind has ever been. I guess it doesn't help that I'm tired or the fact that because I chose to go back and catch up chains I've had to grind loads of grey quests and creatures. Hopefully this will let me make some quicker progress to 24.

Then it'll be back to Derra and then Edril probably. Still have the goal of all 30 by the end of the month, and Morwena to 60. Anything beyond that by the end of the month is a bonus.

And now for the news

Well finally got myself going on Silvena, which meant after having to log off early on Sunday due to overwhelming tiredness. I finally made the progress I was looking for and got from 38 to 40 today. It was a bit of a struggle in parts, mostly because of the drop rates. I never really had any issues doing the quests, except when I teamed up with a rather inept warrior, who couldn't hold aggro off me at all.

Got the skills for level 40 on Silvena, which cost a fortune, then logged onto Renvik and sent mount money to Silvena and Illiad. Normally my view on this is that each character should fend for itself on the money front, but I honestly can't be bothered walking everywhere anymore. So a Spotted Nightsaber for Silvena, not that it matters in Shadowform, and the Dark Striped Nightsaber for Illiad. Just to keep them different.

Next tasks are 60 on Morwena and then all my other alts up to 30, that could be a long battle, especially on my Paladin.

Slow Progress, but progress nonetheless

Today really hasn't been as quick a levelling day as I would have hoped, but then I did actually go have a life for part of it, and got to do help my mate Barin on an instance run. So I guess you can't have everything.

Wanted to try add some levels onto my lower level alts, but only actually managed to do it on my Druid Vaeless. I guess levelling is gonna slow done as the level increases, but still managed to get 2 levels and make 24. I also tried to get Orfeus into the quest progression I am using, but he is so far ahead of the curve on it from his time in Draenai Land, that he's doing most of the quests to get into their chains, and just to gain rep.

Started to work on Silvena's level as well, but again she is a long way ahead of where she should be, and so is taking quite a bit of time to level, still made it 80% of the way to 39, and so the mount grows ever closer. Which reminds me, need to send money to her and Illiad, get them both riding around, and that'll be 4 of my alts on mounts. Not bad if I say so myself :)

More guild offers today. I'm still trying to decide what I'm trying to achieve in game now. I seem to have lost my route to end game, and so I guess the focus becomes more on instances. So where do I go now? I guess this is something only time can tell.

And so it begins ...

This is as much a test of the blog as it is a start, but here goes anyway.

The last few days have actually returned to being progress days on characters I had almost forgotten. My Mage Morwena has moved on from being just into 55 all the way to being half way to 58, I haven't decided if that's the point she'll go to Outland yet, and I'm thinking maybe getting those last 2 levels in Azeroth, may keep me away from the annoyance of watching her die over and over again.

Gonna start movement on my Priest Silvena again, try and get her to the point of having a mount at least, so that's 2 levels to put on her, which could be slow even with her shadow build.

Been spending a lot of time levelling with my sister's characters which has been good, reminds me of levelling my main Renvik, and all the help he got from Euridike as he made he final dash for 60.
