I don’t think it would have taken me 8 months to reach 80 if I had chosen a different class.

However when you can handle a few hits, 3 shot a mob (or multiple mobs at once) and heal yourself through the incoming damage, it does start to feel OP.

Ret Pallies on the other hand need a nice big fat nerf stick…

Gnome runs for cover before big fat ret pallies chase him down with their nerf sticks

Maybe, just maybe I will join in the guild activities…

Ohh yeah!

Lol…

Squidly… coming at you with big blue balls of Mana!

trust the 3 foot pink pigtailed Gnome to notice!

I might not start those plans in the next week or two, but I don’t have the trepidation I felt on Friday night.

Today with my pally, I did all the quests in Tanaris and all the quests in the Hinterlands. Those two zones took Rhii many days and many deaths. Aside from an occasional pvp gank, Myrhani blazed through them like the mobs were made of paper and glass.

It’s really weird what a buzz you can get from soloing “impossible situations” too. My favorite accomplishment of the weekend was soloing the black dragon quest (2 level 50s) in Badlands when Myrhani was 45.

Leveling ret pallies are OP. :D It’s great.

So I think I her a stroke of melancholy between the shaman OP happiness lines. We all need somewhere where we feel that we belong. somtehing more consistant than a LFG PUG.

But considering the very social nature of this gnome, sorry draenei, I guess I needn’t worry. It won’t be long before you’ll have a stead crew around you again, eagerly waiting for you to come online.

And btw… don’t shamans have balls too? Thos annoying things swirling around… Don’t know if they’re made of fire, but it seems as if you’ll basically stick the the theme of this blog, even if you’re switching to another char for a while now.

I went through a bad phase where RL obligations made it hard for me to raid. Unfortunately, this was met with very little understanding by my raid leader and guild, so I lost interest in my main.
Instead, I melt faces with my baby spriest and wreck havoc in AV on my kitty druid, and I’m having a GREAT time of it!!!
I started returning to my main, now that she’s in a more casual guild and doing stuff like loremaster and the netherdrake rep grind. Taking my mind off the whole raid focus has really reignited my enjoyment in game!
