Well, last night I was pretty tired after attending a 3 day endurance riding event. I really like the comeraderie at these, as an American might say it makes me feel Grounded. When Sue retired to bed with a headache I was feeling pretty brain dead and logged into WoW on Flowersz to knock out a couple of dailys and turn down a heroic invite (I felt bad about that, but I really wasn’t on anything like form).
Then I logged into my little new gnome warrior alt, Hilary Fflowers to level him up a bit, from level 2 to level 8 to be exact. What d’ya know? I enjoyed it, mindless but fun. I’ve had a warrior before that reached the pathetic heights of level 12 before I gave up on him, I just didn’t gel with all the running around and getting ganked by wolves in the “home land”. Hilary has made the run to Azuremyst Isle and leveling there seems much easier.
I think I’m already getting the hang of the rage mechanic and have already started killing things as I run from place to place just to keep his rage up, something that has always seemed a little odd before when I see warriors killing rats in level 80 raids.
I haven’t totally given up on my level 40 odd Moonkin Druid, but I’ve already started on a Role Play story line for Hilary and it’s giving me a little more interest in what he’s doing. When I remember I’m wondering how he “feels” about the things he’s doing and even what he’s doing in his time off. For example last night he logged out in the inn at Azure Watch and is quite likely to ask Technician Zhanaa out for a drink. Seems you can’t keep a Gnome away from engineers even though Hilary is going Herbalism/Alchemy. And since Flowersz has sent him some specific items of apparel I can be sure he won’t be trying to get Zhanaa’s knickers for his very peculiar quest!
