Sweet 40 !!

Yahoooo !! I finally dinged 40 on my priest.


And its brought two big changes to my play: My mount and shadowform. This is my first skeletal horse mount. I think they are awesome looking. I chose blue. Running around gets very tiring, especially the closer to level 40 you get, so I am very relieved to be able to ride. It makes things so much quicker. I also got to play in shadowform for the first time & it is very pleasant. Kills come much quicker and easier, and I can face higher level mobs with confidence.

The mount and shadowform sure seemed to quicken things last night. I played less than two hours and gained the entire level (70k-plus XP and with only 5%rest bonus when I started), and finished six quests in Arathi Highlands that netted me from 3.5-5.5k XP each. I only grouped once, with another kindly priest, for less than 5 minutes to kill Mazrel for the quest we were both working on when we ran into each other in Stormguard Keep.

I'm looking forward to speeding along as a shadowy priest. Cya.

Priestly Fun

I've been leveling an undead priest for the last couple of months, and speccing him full shadow. Johnnypriest has been a lot of fun, and just reached level 37, which just surpasses the highest I've ever gotten a priest. My plan is to make him my main, but also continue to level my warrior, Commish. That way whether someone needs a tank or a healer, I can jump in.

I've also been two-boxing with them a bit. But since I use my iMac and MacbookPro, its a bit clumsy when I have to look at both screens and work with two keyboards. It only becomes an issue when Johnnypriest has drawn aggro, and I'm so focused on Commish, I don't notice till its too late. =-(


The patch 2.3 XP changes have made things leveling much faster. I'm gonna take both these guys to Outland soon !
