it's been a minute


As I have stated before my job is pretty demanding so I usually only get to game on the weekends. That being said it is time for an update. Since I last posted I have gone from 55 to nearly 62. In that time I have collected the achievement for the Blasted Lands Quests, Jumped to the Outlands and broken 60. I played as Disc for a level or two but relaized that shadow is where its at for me. Hope you enjoy the pics.


Althoght I am using transmog I am still not buying from the AH, doing dungeons or BGs. 

I recently became honored with Honor Hold in Hellfire and purchased the helm and robe from the quartermaster there. Although those pieces can not be worn until 70 they will be cool additions for future transmogs and the specs should be such that I may still have use for them when I hit 70. If not, like I said they will make good trasmog items. 

Hellfire is dull as usual but not as bad as I thought it would be as a caster. got about 15 quests to go before I finish and can move on.
As always though jumping through the portal was a cool exp. 

No matter how mnay times you get to do it it's always neat because it means you have finished the first game. 

And for those of us who battled the long timeless grinds of vinnilla that actually means something.

So Long Burning Steppes.

Caught this beautiful screeny in the <3 of the Burning Steppes

I also picked up a few achievements so far today. - PPL seem to like my work



LVL 51 and spec change

I just hit level 51 - I know it's slow but I work a bunch and still spend time with my fam before gaming so it doe take me quite a bit longer. 

I am really enjoying the priest, recently I did make the jump to Shadow, around level 46, not sure that I like it yet but it definitly has some neat things about it.

I also went and did a transmog suite, some gear I had from different time worked great together so no we are rocking a custom look.

More updates coming soon. Don't miss out. 

Thanks for reading.

GOODBYE WPL!!!


LVL 40 and 66% done with WPL

So one thing I am really enjoying about this project is that it is doing a great job of taking my mind off of the rest of life's little problems. 

When I get to login and quest out for a bit, even an hour, it really calms me down.

I don't think I have had this much fun questing in a long time! I am now LVL 40 and 66% done with the WPL and have picked up my faster riding. 

This project is really becoming an interesting ride.

Time to Bail on the Vale! So Long STV


A New Look compliments of STV


BOOM! LVL 35 BABY!

LVL 35 - 27 more quests to go to finish of STV and getting a lot of fun and enjoyment out of this project, not sure why I never stuck to a priest before but I definitely should have. This has been one of the most enjoyable questing characters I have ever made.

It' getting good now

I'm getting pretty excited. The priest just hit LVL 20 and although that doesn't seem like a mile stone to some, for those of us who were there for vinilla we remember it as quite the mile stone.

Now as cool as it is to have the mount to ride about, the far more fun thing for me is that I am actually sticking to this project, this is farther than many of my alts have made it over the years and I am about 99.99% sure this is the high priest I have ever had.

The experience is definitely a fun one. More updates to come soon!

LVL 20


Sadness

I'm starting to see why Night Elves and Worgen come to other starting areas to quest. Between Gilneas and Darkshore I'm one My Chemical Roman song away from depression.

I'm currently level 16 - have 69 quests to go in Darkshore and this rainy, dreary scenery is enough to weigh you down emotionally.

Hopefully I can smash throught this place and the next one is better, need some nice scenery and sunshine in my life. LOL.

Did get a wicked screeny though.


15 LVLs of reflection

We are now 15 LVLs in & it's time to reflect.

We are now LVL 15 - which I believe may be close to the longest I have ever stuck with a priest. Im not sure if its the challenge that is doing it or if I'm just generally enjoying myself, but I am having a really good time with this.


Currently the play time is a little slow at 5:10:42 but I'm really taking my time, not only with questing and taking breaks to spend time with my family but I'm also reading the storylines a lot more than I usually would and I think that is helping with my attachment to the character.

We still have a long way to go and I am wanting some feed back about what spec would be best for quest leveling. I am thinking Disc but I still want some points of view.

LVL 15 & 100 quets

100 down!


So long Gilneas, its been real.


Come and Get it!



LVL 13

LVL 13 and progressing throught the Gilnaes storyline

In the begining...

This blog exists to catalog a project I am working on that will start today. Since I began playing warcraft in 2006 I have had doznes of chars and builds but not a big variation in classes, or at least not many that made it very long.

Now, being honest, I have no earthly idea how many priests I have tried to make but I do know its by far the least likely I have ever given a real chance.

The 9th priest project is going to catalog my journey to level a priest without BOA, without dungeons, pure questing with maybe a dash of BGs.

So what makes my challenge different from others?

Nothing!

This challenge isn't about being entertaining, although I hope that it is, it is about me branching out and having a great time with hopes of creating a following of people who enjoy the game, enjoy that I am putting this challenge out for myself, and maybe want to throw in a comment here and there.

The blog will be referenced by my twitter account in hopes of generating views (@warcraftproject).

So how do we decde what priest to make. Easy. We gamble.

Now Priests are availble as:

Alliance
Human / Dwarf / Night Elf / Gnome / Draenei / Worgen

Horde
Undead / Tauren / Troll / Blood Elf / Goblin

We will gamble by using the timeless tradition, the humbling coin flip, if it's good enough for the NFL its good enough for me. You will notice I have left out Pandaren because I am only using those direct affiliation races.

Best two out of three for faction. Heads (Horde) Tails (Alliance) - chosen by my wife
Results: Tails / Heads / Tails = Goodbye Horde 

Stage 1: 1 flip elimination
Human v. Dwarf - Dwarf
Night Elf v. Gnome - Gnome
Draenei v. Worgen - Worgen

Stage 2:
Dwarf v. Gnome           - Dwarf
Dwarf v. Worgen          - Worgen
Gnome v. Dwarf           - Gnome
Gnome v. Worgen         - Gnome
Worgen v. Dwarf           - Worgen
Worgen v. Gnome         - Gnome

Stage 3:
Worgen and Gnome won the most so in the finale they will go 6 out of 10 to see which I will play
1. Gnome
2. Worgen
3. Worgen
4. Gnome
5. Worgen
6. Worgen
7. Worgen
8. Worgen
9. N/A
10. N/A

Worgen it is!!!!!!! Unexpected since Gnome beat worgen 1-on-1 both times in the earlier round.
