Annihilation in Darkshore
Only had an hour or so to play on laptop before going out for the evening. Took mae to Darnassus to turn in a pile of runecloth and morrowgrain, then decided to continue doing lowbie night elf quests to get sweet with Darnassus. Right now I'm feeling that I really want to go for the Saber, it feels more of a priority than levelling. I'll make the most of this motivation while it is still there. I've made visible progress so the task now seems more achievable and I wouldn't want to have wasted the effort I've already expended.
The quests are easy on the laptop, the main problem is finding quest givers as there are no markers on them. I found some in Auberdine, enough to get me going. The time spent searching for where you're supposed to do the quest is the same at any level. Doing the quest is trivial, I found I could one-shot level 10's with arcane shot abd one-shotting saves bullets. I wasn't using Tiddles and she started getting unhappy about not being fed so I dismissed her, no point in her being there. I found it kind of sad the way these little grells would come skipping up to Mae and she would dispatch them instantly. According to DamageMeters she can kill a level 10 in 1.7 seconds.
Even found a rare spawn grell that dropped a level 12 cloth green. Mae is a rare spawn magnet.
Found an escort quest so here I summoned Tiddles, fed her and set her on aggressive, then the quest was like a stroll in the park with this guy while Tiddles ran all around killing golems. She'd run off, you see a 248 float up the screen and then she'd run back. She's so cute.
I made a good 2000 rep in the short session, each quest gives around 250 rep and I have 14000 rep to go so I need to find 52 more quests. Later on while thinking about this (when I'm not playing wow I'm thinking about it) I remembered that wowwiki has lists of quests available in each area so I can study that to help find more quests. It doesn't give the coords of the quest giver but at least I can see what is available.
Ultimately I will probably end up buying runecloth to finish this off. Yesterday it was 1g28 a stack minimum. I wouldn't want to spend any more than 100g on this and then only if the quests (or my motivation to do them) dried up. That would buy me about 6000 rep.
