Played some over the weekend with my Protection Warrior, Dotsmadathre. I'm up to level 28 now. Getting pretty easy to kill things using my sword and board routine. Just revenge everything and they quickly die. Starting to get better equipment as well with the quests I've been completing. I'm still in Duskwood. I was able to kill the Mor Ladim (or however you spell it) that is in the graveyard. He's a level 30 elite and I killed him by myself, I think at level 28. Still had plenty of hp left too. Didn't need any healing potions either. Comparing my warrior with my paladin I think I still prefer the Paladin. I really like to be able to heal myself. Hopefully I'll be able to level my Warrior up to 30 this week and then start on my Mage. I've been playing these heavy armor classes for a while now. It will be interesting to mix it up a bit with some squishy magic users.

Went back to the Fizzcrank realm over the weekend and played my Warrior some last night. Got him up to level 26 in Duskwood. I bought a new Dell desktop computer so I could have it hooked up to my 120" projector. It is so much better looking than when I had my laptop connected to it. First of all I can connect it directly to my receiver using an hdmi cable instead of the standard monitor cable. Then the computer itself, of course, is much better. It has a pentium i7 processor, which I believe is a quad core?? Don't know much about computers but all I know is that I was able to move all of the sliders for video and audio to max and the game still played amazingly at I believe the highest fps which is 60. The grass and plants no longer look like blobs and there are so many more shadows than before. The sound is also great. The picture doesn't do it justice as I took it with my phone, but you can get an idea of how big my screen is. I'll continue playing tonight if I have time so I can get my Warrior up to 30. Then I think my Mage is next to level to 30.

Probably not really accurate to title my blog "Daily" anymore since I haven't written in over a month now. Although I haven't blogged I actually have been playing a little. I wanted to start anew in another realm so I started another Human Priest in the Maive (spelling) realm. I wanted to try a pvp realm so I picked this one. I've gotten to level 20 so far and am currently doing quests in the Redridge area. While in Redridge I've been killed several times by high level horde players which is annoying, but also kind of fun as well. It adds another level of excitement to the game. You really have to watch out for the "red" guys now. Usually when I see one and they see me, it takes them about 1 sec to kill me. Once though I had a Horde player look me over and then move on. I would have said thanks, but I don't speak his language and didn't want to provoke him. One day hopefully, I'll be powerful enough to deal my own damage, but unfortunately my time has not come yet. Maybe I'll venture into some Horde territory and pick on some weaklings too....Still probably to low level to even make it over there. I'll go back to my other players eventually on Fizzcrank, not sure when though.

Currently traveling around the world for the next 2 weeks for work. I'm currently in Oslo, Norway at the moment. Have played a little since my last post though. I reached level 30 with my Paladin and have reached level 22 with my Warrior. I'll probably play some more once I get back to my hotel tonight. Good thing about traveling is that I can do whatever I want when I get back to my hotel. No taking care of kids or anything like that. I will be in London over the weekend so hopefully the hotel has fast enough internet for me to play.

Well, I've finished all my quests in Duskwood and I'm still not quite at level 30 yet. I could do some grinding and probably get there pretty quick, but that's boring. I decided to go ahead and move over to the Wetlands as I believe it is somewhat comparable to Duskwood level wise. I'll do all the quests there and I should make it to level 30 by then. My alternative is to try and run the deadmines, but I think it would be pretty difficult to solo at level 29. Plus I don't get any experience from killing mobs there only completing a few of the quests. Not worth it. Stranglethorn Vale would be the next logical step after Duskwood, but I believe I would be out of my league there as well. I don't want to stuggle fighting mobs a couple levels above me. So that's why I pick the Wetlands. It'll take some running around, but shouldn't be too long before I reach my current goal of level 30 for my Paladin. After that I will play my Warrior, although I am getting partial to my Paladin. I fee like I really have a hang on what he can accomplish and have a pretty good battle rotation going after playing for the past 10 levels. It's been a lot of fun. I'm sure I will find the same thing with the Warrior as well once I get into it. For the Paladin I was able to kill that elite guy that's in the grave yard which was a couple levels higher than me. I was out of mana, nearly out of health and used my potions as well, but I did end up killing him all by myself. I thought that was pretty cool.

Played again last night and got my Paladin to level 27. Still in Duskwood but starting to get into orange quests which mean the mobs are a higher level than myself. Not that big of a deal, but if a bunch of them get on top of me then I may be in trouble. I had 3 of those werewolf things on me at once (all level 27 or higher) and I was able to take care of them. I was almost out of health and out of mana but was able to manage. If one more was to get on me though I would have been toast. I will play again tonight, but may not get to 28 as it'll take alot of quests to get there. We'll see. I wonder what new skills if any I will get..... I get an upgrade in Exorcism which will be nice in Duskwood, new spells Judgement of Justice and Shadow Resistance. The Justice one prevents the mob from running off which would be nice and Shadow resistance can be used against those werewolf thingys. Nothing too exciting though.

Been a little while since I've posted an entry but I have been playing. My paladin is up to level 26 now and I'm running around the 4 corners of Duskwood doing quests. Still have several more to do, but not sure if I'll hit level 30 before I'm done. I hope so though since the next area would be too high level for my Paladin. Duskwood is a good area for Paladins though with my Exorcism spell. It's pretty nice having a long range spell to bring in mobs and a good start with a crit on the undead which there's plenty of in this area. Will play some more tonight and probably end up on level 27.
