“Easy to learn, difficult to master.” – you nailed it.

Great post, Bear.

grats on the “achievement”, and far more grats to the nice outfit :)

Though I have one question. Isn’t it also a bit sad that essentially you could “beat the game” in 2 or 3 weeks? Yes, I know there is so much more to explore and find fun in … but for many people – “wow, 3 weeks and I’ve killed the biggest dragon in the world – time to move to something different”

Gratz BBB. Is it wrong that I want to level my rogue because of super speed stealth? I went back to mine recently having not touched him since vanilla with mogging I remembered I had the blackened defias set (although checking I didn’t have the chest piece – Scouting Tunic and tabbards will cover for that) – and after jumping into some BGs fell in love with their stealth and have been working on him (in between lots of LFR goodness – my hunter and DK did the jump you did). Admittedly some of the attraction was the switch to offspec kitty and their similarities (though so far rogue feels like a slower heavy hitter…).

You’re right about comparing WoW to WoW though – even Therazzane is a sneeze compared to Sons of Hodir (before you could buy the tokens) – the amount of dailies you need to do (and the existence of a tabbard) is so much less compared to how long it was in Wrath. The only two bad parts are that the enchants are BoA, and the requirement to do over half of Deepholm just for the privilege to start getting rep. I’ve never done more of Storm Peaks than was required to open up Sons of Hodir.

It was interesting – I went back to do some Argent Tournament dailies again (guild just hit level 24 so I’ve been spending my gold on shiny mounts and needs a few more Argent Tournament tokens). The dailies were such a pita compared to Tol Barad dailies (which I was also doing again). OK half of that is jousting (it is still quicker than trying to melee the battle commanders. But they are not as concentrated or flowing as the Tol Barad ones (or even SSO dailies going further back).

Looking further back – the ‘doing attunement runs nobody elses wants to have to do again no matter how exciting it is to you’ I understand too. Trying to get the Onyxia attunement done was a pain (mainly the first part where even if you did go on it whether you managed to start the escort at the same time was half luck). I soloed the last part using the naked corpse run method… and then just trying to find a dungeon instance as an undergeared hunter – it was why I rolled my first tank (so in that respect it was good).

Thank you, and thanks to Fang as well. Is it sad that I leveled this character simply because I thought she looked super cool?

I don’t have anything constructive to say that hasn’t been said but yesterday and the day before I got one of my character 9 levels in that span, hit outland and now with all the dk’s spreading their wings to jump off the hunk of planet I think I am going to end up leveling through to 68 before the end of the week. My goal for this character is notreally end game as much as level 75 to finish out jewwlcrafting so I can prospect my own gems. Just prospecting them is sometimes much cheaper on my server than trying to buy one cut or uncut.

All the upgrades from the new dungeons and my off journeys I need about 35 rubies between my 4 characters.
