It's been a crazy week of levelling. >< I was aiming for a level a day, which I managed to do, and last night Panadoll finally dinged level 80. ^o^ ( ding screenshot )

I'm pretty pleased that I managed to get to 80 in just over a week. I really would like to secure a raid spot for myself. Twelve has already started raiding, but I think it's just 10-man raiding.. I'm still not familiar with how the end-game raids work, but I assume there are 10-man & 25-man versions of all the raid instances, a bit like AQ? I'm also not familiar yet with the level 80 instances, or the higher level ones like Gundrak. I've only done Utgarde Keep, Nexus, Drak'Tharon Keep (probably my favourite so far), Azjol-Nerub and Ahn'kahet (which I wanna do again because I didn't finish a quest in there). I was so focused on questing that I didn't do anymore instances after that. The way I quested was Borean - Howling Fjord - Grizzly Hills - Dragonblight - Sholazar Basin - Zul'Drak - Stormpeaks. I was trying to get all the questing achievements in every zone, but gave up in Zul'Drak, because I was 79 by then and wasn't getting good xp from that zone. Stormpeaks was fun :D But my favourite zone is probably a toss up between Sholazar and Grizzly.

The first thing I did after hitting 80 was head to SW and respec. I respecced disc to level, which was fun & definitely made things a bit easier. But it did make healing a little more difficult (I had a bad experience trying to keep up with healing a death knight tank ><) and I like being a holy priest.. so I respecced back. I did some reading first. I'm not particularly fond of a lot of the standard holy builds that are out there.. and I also don't like all the crazy specs I found (shadow/holy.. hmmm). I still like the idea of being holy with some points in disc, although I've heard that DS isn't as important anymore, and impDS isn't worth speccing into at all. I decided to create my own build, and this is what I came up with. DS and CoH.. lol. xD I've never actually used CoH before, but it seems pretty OPawesome. I replaced my healbot click for Prayer of Healing with CoH.

Panadoll looks a little different from this now (slight change in the pattern of the robe & helm :P) but this is how she looked through most of the levelling ~



a few more ( random screens )

oh yeh.. finally bought my epic flying so I could use my netherray. xD It was actually one of the very first things I did when I got the expansion, and realised that the cost of epic flying wasn't being lowered. :P
