Daily Quest

Last night, I switched my focus on doing daily quests. My performance was less than satisfactory, but it was a learning experience.

My main paladin and warrior both have epic mount. My priest and holy paladin only have the normal mount, and flying around via follow was a nightmare.

I grabbed the Goggles Reading, and Sunfury Attack Plans in Shattrath. I bought a flight to Stonebreaker Hold in Terrokar and . From flew to Skettis, more or less manually with the normal mounts.

At Skettis, the holy paladin and priest took the Feed the Netherrays, and skipped the Shadow Dust collection. The Bombing was a nightmare. I found the best solution for mixed speed mounts is to just park the clones up one tower where there was 4 spawns, and use my main to bomb that re-spawns.

I did not find the Prisoner Escort quest, so I just headed to complete the feeding of the Nether Rays. I left for Nagrand Oshugun area for the Googles Reading quest. I flew manually again and landed in the same area.

At Oshugun, Nagrand, I used the land epic mounts to move from one read cloud to another; then I ran back to Garadar and took a flight to Netherstorm.

At Netherstorm, I rand via land mount to kill Sunfury neat Manaforge Coruu. After that, I flew south to Hellfire.

At Hellfire, I was more or less clueless as to where to go. I went to the zone in portal, then flew back down to the Throne of Kiljaeden. I manged to kill my holy paladin twice as he flew nead the bad ass demon, lol. My warrior also died as I got them in auto flight and I hit "Alt C" which dis mounted them when my main paladin found the quest NPC.

At the Throne of Kiljaeden, my main was the only only one who can do the Blood For Blood, and Blast the Gateway quest. I hearthstoned back to Shatt and turn in the quests.

I then logged in my Rogue who is in the same account as my Holy Paladin. I solo the Skettis quest, did Nagrand readings, rode to Garadar, flew to Netherstorm. It was late and I fell asleep as my rogue was auto running. I awoke to witness him falling to his death off the edge of the island in Netherstorm on the way to Manaforge Coruu. After a spirit res, I killed a few Bllodelves for the Sunfury Attack Plans. I hearthstone back to Shattrath, and turned in the quest.

What a long evening.

Gem, Enchants, Daily Quest, & Battlegrounds

The past 2 nights, I just spent gemming, enchanting, doing some daily quests, and playing in the battlegrounds.

Among those I got enchanted and upgrade are my level 3x 60-62 shamans, 70 Priest, 70 Holy Paladin, 70 Arms Warrior and 70 Sub Rogue.

Last night, I re-spec to Retribution from Prot on my Paladin, and enjoying the kills and damage.

This means, I lay off the instance grinding and I will just escort Team Shaman in questing, ungrouped. I still have Team Mage also.

Hellfire Peninsula

Alright, I'm back in Outlands, Hellfire Peninsula for some questing.

#4 Azhat is almost 61. He's my bottleneck in the group as some of the quest aren't available to him yet, but my other two: #1 Azzhat 61, and #2 Aszhat 62 can. An example quest is the escort quest of that caged guy in the bird area, south of Falcon Watch.

In my dismay, I missed to finish a collection quest for Aszhat, but since he's higher level, that's ok. I plan to go back there anyway as soon as Azhat hits 61 later. I think he's 60.80% now.

Other than that, I got my gear upgrades progressing well. I started grinding some more in Blood Furnace. I also started dropping the level 70 paladin so the xp per kill is a bit higher when killing mobs outside.

Another quest line at 61 is the Colossal Menace which has another gear upgrade, and Totems. With my 4 guys, I cap the Towers in Hellfire rather fast. I think I will do that this week to get a nice trinket out of it.

I'm in a dillema of whether to keep on levelling the 3 shamans, or play with the 2x 60 Mages...

Back to LBRS, then Outlands

I was not happy with the xp gains grinding Blood Furnace with the 55 Shaman with level 60s and 70s. So, I went back to LBRS and grinded some xp until level 57.80%

My dps was also lacking since I was not running 2 Mages and wiped many times in the "bonus pull." The bonus pull was to shield pull the troll below just before the ogres. They path around and come with lots of troll axe throwers that knock back, troll priests that hex, and 3 ogre adds that are just beefy. With 2 mages doing blizzards, they die fast. But with only 1 mage, the dps was not enough to kill the priest and start chain hexing that kills the party.

After LBRS, I went back and cleared Blood Furnace twice. I tested the ultimate xp. With 3 Shaman level 58, 60, and 60, they were getting 300-400 per kill versus 61 elites. When I tested a level 58 tagging a 61 elite solo, he was getting over 1000 xp per kill. But the pulls are more than 1 so he dies fast without proper cc and focus fire. This is hard to do via multi keyclone. It was better to just have the paladin AoE and Mage to focus fire the entire instance. I might try this later on in Shadow Labs.


After 2 runs in Blood Furnace, I hit Outlands Hellfire Quest. I logged off last night at 59.95% with a quest to turn in. And my gear has been upgraded well enough. Time to retire the "asshat" Whitemane's Chappeau.

Blood Furnace

I cleared Blood Furnace once last night, but mostly trying to see if my level 70's dropping from group and having the lowbies "tag" the mobs, and kill all of them within 60 seconds.

I did not see much improvement over the xp gained in those kill. I was running a level 60, 60, and 56 with 2 level 70s. I need to test this some more.

After that, I single play my Prot Paladin and knock off Skettis and Netherstorm daily quests.

Woot! Outlands...

I have been leveling #4 Azhat Shaman and hit level 55 last Sunday night. I rolled Azhat 2 Sundays ago! The end result was I have #1 Aszhat 60 Shaman, #2 Joiya 59 Mage, #1 Gemstar 58 Mage, and#2 Azzhat 59 Shaman.

I spent some time doing Scholomance, and turning in Bone Chips, Crypt Fiend Parts, Dark Iron Scraps and Elemental Cores in Eastern Plagueland, Lights Hope Chapel.

I also cleared some normal 5-man Magister's Terrace with my Prot Paladin with guildies.

I started grinding mobs in Blood Furnace, and tweaking my focus fire macro. I hardly do AoE Blizzard pulls now. It is less chaotic and 2x Chain Lightning is fun.

I will need to re-spec Azzhat and Aszhat to Elementals, re-spec Joiya to Arcane/Fire for High DPS, and Gemstar to Frost with Improved Frostbolts and Winterchill.

I will re-spec Azhat to pure Resto instead of putting points in Elemental.

I will also need to work on my PvP macro of staggered Grounding and Tremor Totems via cast sequence.
