Almost There!
I’m still slowly working my way towards that mythical level 70. Angelikuh is currently 65% of the way through level 67 so she should make good progress towards 69 when the servers come back up.
I’ve seen a few more instances this time thanks to the folk in the small but friendly guild I’m in, I did my first ever Old Hillsbrad Foothills run and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I’m soon to come up against a bit of a quandary though. As a druid I can perform well as a tank, as a healer and as melee or ranged DPS (Damage Dealer).
Doing all of those requires at least 3 sets of gear, and to perform each function properly requires respeccing my talents to suit the task. (Going full restoration for healing etc.)
The main problem comes from my lack of experience in tanking and healing. I decided to go Feral DPS while levelling for efficiency and have done some limited healing in Hellfire Ramparts and tanked the trash and first two bosses in Slave Pens without changing spec just changing gear to suit.
That alone isn’t enough “experience” to confidently volunteer to tank or heal anything, so I’m not too sure how to get the experience without jeopardising whichever group I’m with, especially because people in PUGs tend to just leave after a wipe.
That combined with the looming need to collect 3+ sets of gear is starting to get a bit worrying… I should be okay to start with mostly PvP and Crafted gear though I think.
I’m looking at getting these items from PvP first now that Season 2 gear is available for honour:
[Merciless Gladiator's Dragonhide Helm] - Gemmed for Agility
[Merciless Gladiator's Dragonhide Spaulders] - Gemmed for Stamina
[Merciless Gladiator's Dragonhide Tunic] - Gemmed for Agility and Stamina
[Merciless Gladiator's Dragonhide Gloves]
[Vindicator's Dragonhide Boots]
[Vindicator's Dragonhide Belt]
[Vindicator's Dragonhide Bracers] - Gemmed for Stamina
[Merciless Gladiator's Maul]
I also plan on getting these:
[Bogstrok Scale Cloak] - From Rokmar the Crackler in Slave Pens
[Heavy Clefthoof Leggings] - From my favourite Leatherworker ^_^
Hopefully I won’t need all those PvP pieces as I’ll get better ones from instances, but we shall see, I have to get to 70 first…
