Today Medivh server has been down all day long.  Very dissapointing since I wanted to level my druid more. Meanwhile I've been playing on the beta server.  I've been doing some PVP in the battle grounds as well as some PVE agains level 80 mobs.  Here is what I found:

Druid - Love PVP, PVE is also cool.  I've respecked heavy balance and a bit of healing.  Moonkin for PVE and Moonking/Healer for PVP.  I like the PVE, but PVP is wicked.  The Hot Healing is soo cool in PVP.

Mage - Love PVE.  I specked fire so far, but it's awsome.  I can two shot a mob easily.  However in PVP i did not enjoy it.  Probably because for PVP i need to spec frost.  Next time I'll try that.

Shaman - Tried all three specs, not very successfull in PVP, and PVE is kinda boring.  Shamans are too confusing with all the totems and spells.  Not my cup of tea.
Hopefully my regular server will be up tomorow to play my druid.

Oh by they way, cleared out ZA for the first time with my lock.  It was cool.  Great group with my guildies.

I've decided to pick up inscription on my druid.  My druid, who's my newest favorite Alt. is the second character I've created when I originally began playing WoW.  He fell out of my favor, and became my main banking and AH toon.  Originally he was herbalist/alchemist.  However, I've droped alchemy and leveled enchanting on him to DE my unneeded greens and do DE arbitrage in AH.

I was playing around with the idea of picking up inscription on my druid, since he had herbalism already.  The other day I was scanning the AH for the glyphs for sale, and after buying a couple, my decision was sealed.  Today I've droped enchanting ( I'll level it back up to a needed level to DE on anouther alt), and began my journey to gather some lower level herbs and level inscription.

The two glyphs I've picked up were:

Glyph of Rake

Glyph of Rejuvenation

Both glyphs are great and pretty useful for my leveling as a druid.  One will help with the runners when I'm in cat form ( most of the time), the other will help me during those times when you're almost dead, and throw a Rejuvenations on yourself before going back into cat/bear form to finish the mob off.

Right now people are making a lot of money with inscription, simply because it's new and market is not yet saturated.  People can charge what ever they want.  Also, the minor glyphs are not trainable, you have to discover them.  They are selling for ridiculous prices right now.  In the future Inscription may not be as profitable as it is right now.  However, at this stage of WoW, i have plenty of ways to make Gold in WoW even without a crafting profession.  So inscription will definitely will be useful in playing and leveling.

I hope that in the later game there will be glyphs that are discovery only or reputation, that will make this profession profitable as well.  So far, back to gathering peace blooms and silverleafs :).

I have not blogged lateley.  Mainly because of not palying as much, as well as playing Warhammer Online.  I'll write about Warhammer in anouther post.

Playing Beta, I'm beggining to really enjoy PVP with a premaid level 80 Restro Druid.  Resto Druids are a lot of fun.  It's almost like playing an afliction warlock only in reverse.  Hot Hot Hot.

I've began to level my druid, who has been my bank, and I'm actually enjoing it.  Druids are weared.  Either you love them or you hate them.  I'm starting to love mine.  Maybe my next alt.  But hey, they never survive past 45. LOL

Well see.

My paladin is over 40.  I've been having a lot of fun gridning 2 to 3 mobs at a time in the Stranglehorn Valey.  Paley AOE is a lot of fun.  Now that I've got the Holy Shield and a new shield with a mithril spike on it, this will be even more fun.  Mobs drop like stones.  :)

I've been actually realy enjoing playing with my pally.  I think I will try to get him to 70 before expancion comes out.   Get's me invovled while we are all waiting for wrath to comes out.

The new patch 3.0 will come out soon, and i'd like to see how it will change my gameplay since it will have a lot of changes to pallies.

Now my goal is to outfit him with plate.  It seems that at level 40 many other paladings and warriors rush into the AH to get their plate, only to find out prices in the 20 and 30 gold range for basic plate green.  Just got to watch out for bargains and snatch them up.

I was checking my email when I noticed - AN EMAIL WITH MY WRATH BETA KEY! :D

This is really cool. I was getting tired of WoW, becaues my guild's scheduled raids have not been happening due to lack of attendance. So this will give me something to do. This is especially cool since I'll be able to play around with some of the classes I always wanted to have in the end game. Now I can see if I really do want them.

I am starting to get bored with WoW. I feel that it's like a relationship that is beginning to go stale. Last night our 25 man raid for either Gruul or Mag did not happened again due to the lack of people/interest. When someone offered to go do Kara instead, I declined. There is only so many times you can do Kara before it becomes a bore. This is especially since I'm fully in my T4 set with Moramor, and there are only two things that I actually could use as and upgrade from that dungeon, the bracers from Maden and the dagger from Prince.

So, here comes the challenge. What do you do with your time if you stop playing WoW. I was mulling over to pre-ordering Warhammer Online and trying the open Beta. Besides that, there are not many other things that can be as wholesome and entertaining as WoW for the low price. At least none that come to my mind right now. What to do?

What do you do with all the free time in your life if you eliminate WoW completely. WoW took up a lot of that free time in the past. If I would eliminate WoW form my life, I would either have to find anouther hobby that would require as much time and commitment, or I would have to come up with multple smaller hobbies or activities.

One of the challenges I had with multiple hobbies/activities, is that I take on too many and get burned out. With wow, you can scale back or intensify your time or effort commitment. With smaller hobbies/activities you would have to drop one or two. The drama that sometimes entales leaving something is never pleasant. I guess this is a new era, and an interesting turning point.

While clearing out the mail boxes on my bank alts, I was thinking to my self - Wow! What a mess. It seems that it never goes away. The more I try to organize it the more it seems to become more disorganized. Then I through back to my room, my office space, my clothes in the closet. Here is the thing, they are all in the same "state".
