Lo-Quality WoW

My warrior got a bit of a workout this weekend. At some point last month, I had finally set her up to duel-spec as a Fury since she wasn’t getting called on too often to tank anymore. This has allowed me to more or less retire my hunter for heroic instances and have her go in instead.

Don’t know why but it’s been a chore to play WoW lately. I just can’t seem to get motivated, on any of my alts. So it’s taken me a couple of weeks to chug my warrior over to 80.

It’s been a real challenge to get to 78 with my warrior. Not her fault really, I just enjoy playing my hunter more. That and also I don’t have the drive or interest of brand new content driving me, meaning her progress has been more of a chore than anything else. But at least I made it to 78, just a bit more pushing should bring her to 80 and then I can piddle around with one of my other characters.

I still remember when Burning Crusade came out. Stepping out of the portal, you were greeted by the sight of some very, very big things thrashing around in battle. The landscape in Hellfire Pennisula was pretty cool and the risk of essentially falling off the planet was also interesting. Each new area was pretty cool and having to deal with new factions to get rep with was neat. But through it all, there really wasn’t any particular thing I could talk to others and encourage them to do. Well, in Wrath of the Lich King, that wasn’t the case. If you do anything, I encourage everyone to do the Wrathgate quest line at least once in your playing. You’ll enjoy it.

I logged in to my warrior with the intent of tweaking my “dps” setup better. Then I made the mistake of checking my achievements for some reason. And I notice I’m very close to getting 130 quests in Borean Tundra, which is the requirement for the Nothing Boring About Borean achievement. I can be so predictable sometimes…

After a long day of raids and PUGs, I just wanted to work on my warrior a bit. And of course, ironically, my guild decides they want to do some runs. But fortunately, our MT is around and I’m really not needed. They still try to convince me but I point out that I’ve been doing runs for hours and was just worn out.

I had originally planned on working on my warrior most of the night but those two instances with my hunter took up quite a bit of time, and the beer distracted me. Now on my warrior, it’s the battle of Omen, and it’s a very, very, very bad battle.

There’s always a brief sense of disorientation when I switch characters. I also don’t have the best memory, so there’s a minute or two of going “where the heck am I?” Usually followed by “what was I doing?” A quick look at the quest log and I’m off!

It’s sort of odd running up my second character through the WotLK content. The focus is so different. The pace is a bit more relaxed, and half the time I only vaguely remembered what my hunter did when doing these quests. Of course, the main irony is that my warrior actually has the Northern Exposure achievement while my hunter has yet to run across one of those rare spawns, and I’ve played him so much more…

Since I realized that this blog has been primarily my hunter with a general rant here or there, I figured I would kill some time writing about my warrior, Aleania. Oddly enough, she’s one of the few characters with a “real” name. I’ll go into how I name my characters later but it’s rare to have my character’s name match one from the real world.
