Back!

So its the 9th of August and I’m back in the United States!  After 6 months of being deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom I am back in the estados unidos (yeah my spelling is bad enough in English.  If you remember to a few posts back I said that I was having a problem with over 1000ms of lag even at the best of times.  Thats because my bases internet wasn’t so hot.  But now I’ll be able to get good internet again and play WoW all the time!

Nice!

So a little bit of backstory on my WoW experience.  I’ve been playing off and on for about 3 years.  I have 2 70’s and a crap load of other charecters from 66 down to 12.  And in all that time I’ve had a rough time making money when first starting out a charecter. 

Some people have the ability to make gold hand over fist doing all sorts of proffesions and auction house playing.  That is an ability I was never able to get until now.  So I was getting ready to vendor a whole bag full of random stuff from leveling up my two gathering proffesions, skinning and herbalism.  When I decided to see what the AH had been doing. 

 

 

 

TWO GOLD for light leather?!  I mean I know I’ve been away from the low level markets for awhile but Dayum.  I remember when I first leveled my rogues skinning and light leather pulled in maybe 10 silver a stack.  Sure back in the day there was only 10 per stack but come on.  This is awesome for getting my charecter started on a completly new realm.  Hopefully now that mounts are cheaper and at level 30 I can afford one the first time I ding the min level required for mount for the first time ever!

Introducing my druid

This is my druid, Hotaholic.  Yeah the name may not be the greatest, but at the time I made him he was going to be dual boxed with a warlock of mine named…Dotaholic…it seemed like such a good idea at the time ><. 

He’s just a little guy now.  Only level 25.  But I’m hoping to get him to 70 in a month or two.  Haven’t leveled a charecter with the new leveling system before either so I’m not sure how much faster that will make it.  Oh and having maybe 1000ms of lag at the best makes another challenge.  But that problem should be fixed here in the near future.

First post!

This is obviously my first post on my new blog.  I am a total blog nub so this is going to deffinatly be a learning experience for me. 

As a quick introduction let me just say that I’ve been playing World of Warcraft for a few years now.  But in all that time I’ve always leveled on a “care-bear”  server.  So with Wotlk coming out I decided to give a PVP server a try.  So this blog will start out mostly as me going through leveling my new druid on the PVP server, Ner’zhul.
