Lots of New Stuff Going On

As the title says I’ve had lots of new stuff going on lately.  Firstly, my main Hunter, Valynda, made it to level 50 (milestone) and then on to level 55.  So, of course, I immediately made a DK. Actually, I made two, one on Velen which is my Alliance Realm and one on Borean Tundra which is my Horde Realm. 

I’m still playing Val, though not as much as I had been of course. I’m doing a daily on her (or nearly as daily as I can manage) to get her that little venomhide raptor mount from Un Goro Crater.  Just three more feedings and 80g to finish up.

My Horde DK is Lynnia, today she’s level 62 Blood.  She’s got her flying mount, thank god, that’s saved our bacon more times than I can count. I didn’t like Outland the first time we ventured in there, but since I’ve come to really enjoy the surroundings and the sky is spectacular. Lynnia’s survivability makes questing pretty much a breeze.

You know those towers you have to PvP, well that’s where my flying mount really came in handy as there was a nasty Rogue stealthing there waiting till we set down. We launched and escaped but still whew.

I’m still getting to know this toon and what she’s capable of. I’m working with a macro for a rotation that’s working but not sure if it’s the best it can be. I’m scouring everything I can find on line about DK’s trying to learn this new class. I had 55 levels to learn how to be a hunter, but only a few so far to learn this class. Quite a learning curve going from ranged to melee.

Wasn’t done when the above posted. Though it was going to draft. To continue:

I’ve also been doing quite a bit of BG particularly in Alterac Valley. I don’t know that battle ground as well as others I’ve played and I tend to just follow the pack and hit what they are hitting without strategy. Hopefully it will begin to make more sense as I progress there. I love the experience BG affords and at Alterac Valley that’s pretty significant per tower anywhere from over 5K to 8K. 

One of those positive / negitive combos of the DK is on the positive side they come fully leveled up on first aid which is very handy, but on the negative side trying to level up any other skill, like say cooking or  skinning takes you back to the starting areas to kill level 8 beasts. I’ve been doing it as I’ve found a very lucritive market in skins.  I’ve been skinning on Val and sending them to Lynn so she can AH them for cash. Also the rewards and loot are so much better in Outland which also a positive for earning golds. I’ll need to get Val a flying mount when she comes out to Outland and I need to same my golds right now and earn much more.

Ok, I think I’m done for now. Thanks for visiting and come back soon.
