New Hunter Diary - General Hunter Discussion - Hunter Forums

The first thing I did when 4.0.1 came out was make a, please don't shoot me, NE Mage.  I have to agree on the lvling, its a lot of fun now, and some of the changes to the flow are awesome.  Only problem I've had with the heirlooms and guild perk, is lvling out of zones before they are done.  Its still a blast though.

OMG totally forgot I started this thread >.<

Jhaerok is 37 now! I tamed a green turtle from Blackfathom and he (Krank) is now my main pet. Vito (Echeyakee) is his stable mate. I guess I forgot all about the scorpid thing, lol. I started out intending to finish all the quests in each zone before moving on, but with Herbalism & Mining I outleveled zone quests so fast I had almost all grey & green quests. I decided it would be better to just go back and do them after I can fly.

Getting to 20 and a mount was the most painful, and now wishing I could fly is eating away at me, but decked out in all the heirlooms I can carry plus guild xp bonuses has made the levels FLY by. So that's been fun. I've been queuing for randoms and discovered how fun they can be- compared to the 85 randoms, heroics in particular, the lowbie LFD seems mostly full of people wanting to have FUN and enjoy the group experience. Good times. I even had a group that was so fun *Maraudon* was a treat. That's sayin something!

I'll ty to remember to post here more but so far re-living the lowbie hunter experience is a lot of fun. I honestly don't remember "the old days" on Oz, he may as well have been 85 forever lol.

Again, I've totally neglected this "diary" and that's sad. Playing the lowbie continues to be really fun, but I've got a few other projects I'm working on in-game that have divided my time. Jhaerok is 40 now, and I can hardly stand to wait the next 20 levels until he can FLY!

I've also newly found some fun as a level 30-something Orc Warrior. I'm starting to think I shoulda been an Orc all along! My warrior, much like my Hunter, can pretty much non-stop pull anything and everything in his path, and his survivability seems fairly high for his level too. Cleave ftw!

I've decided that come Hell of high water (either could be right around the corner with this Missouri weather we've been having!) I am going to level and max out Oz's Archaeology. Yep, I'm *that* bored. No, actually it's been very interesting and I've got a few blue rares, just fun little toys, but enough to give me that itch to find an epic, or maybe that's sand in my leggings, not sure.

Lastly, my pally, who has been 85, is now finally getting geared to tank Cata heroics. He's a project born more from the guild's interest than mine, but I have to say, while not *nearly* as fun as being a Hunter, I'm enjoying the tanking I've done so far, learning the new mechanics etc, and I look forward to tanking a raid boss for a change of pace. NOTHING beats being a bad-ass, full of utility Hunter though, so don't worry, Oz & Jhaerok will continue on.
