Shaman challenge
Level 69 at 1d 6h - got through Outland, now in Northrend - 60-68 seemed very slow
A funny thing happened on the way to the Alliance: Restored a previously deleted 110 horde mage, took her to Alliance and weirdness happenedMike
Shaman challenge
15 to 38 in one night.
Lots of dungeons and dungeon quests.
Could get 2-3 levels in a run
Rested XP was a waste because you blow right through it.
Problem - Maraudon puts you in the dungeon, but no quests for two more levels. So, either quest or repeat dungeons.
Problem with that is now you’re moving further and further away from Stormwind (Stranglethorn or Plaguelands)
Had to run to Wetlands between dungeon runs. Waste of time. Not sure what else to do.
Toy is 10k gold, and only gives faction flight points, not neutral.
BTW: I still love MaraudonThis Week in WoW

Spent some time this week playing FortniteCara:
OOPS I wiped my addons
map error caused by Mappy “Large gathering nodes” checkbox
lost my weakauras. mogit outfits. pet battle teams. adibags custom filters 😩
remember to save your Interface and WTF folders every so often
Raiding - the balance between casual and progression between beating normals and new raids coming out; hadn't had to do that yet in Legion but we did in Warlords
My team got 3 heroics down! Woot! Goroth, Demonic Inquisition, and Harjatan
Worked on Misstress Sass’zine for an hour, oy
I'm trying to enjoy the new stuff and not rush through it, but I find myself having to be in the right mindset to focus and get really sucked in... vs just playing with audio/video on 2nd monitor - I want to learn the lore and pay attention to details but my perfectionism is sneaking up and keeping me from doing it because if it's not perfect why bother
How's your digital declutter going with old bank mats?News:
