It is not the complete end of the road for Darrken and his AE Tank Pwnage, but luckily we were able to recruit some tanks. I have had so much fun Leveling him that I will continue to do so albeit at a slower pace. I’ll continue posting updates on Darrken as I hit milestones.
But because of the release of Patch 2.4 today, I brought Jugzwei back into the fold to return to doing his dailies. Now that there is less pressure to level Darrken. What can I say about Sunwell. It was quite hectic today and I imagine will be for the next few weeks. I got the first few rounds of dailies complete and because of the high population of the Thrall server I think we will progress quickly to unlocking the rest of the quests.
I plan on going out and picking up the Tier .5 PvP gear for Jugzwei so I can start doing BG’s again, the AV queue was only 3-4 minutes today. Much lower then the previous wait times of 2 hours. Ill gets some pics of his Welfare Blues when I can.
The Forest of Evil:
What I consider the Forest of Evil would be Tirisfal Glades and Silverpine forest. Where I am leveling Darrken to 20. I did my first 6 levels on Sunstrider Isle but upon hitting level 6 I quickly bolted for Silvermoon to take the Orb of Translocation to Undercity. I wanted the UC rep for my level 60 mount. I am not a big fan of the pally mounts or the Blood Elf mounts(if i was interested in riding a chocobo I would still play FFXI). I am making an exception with the level 40 mount because, hey, it’s free. Upon reaching level 20 I will head over to Kalimdor to take advantage of Jame’s Horde Leveling Guide. It came highly recommended by a fellow guildmate who leveled his lock to 70 in no time flat using it, Ryuq.
Darrken Current level: 15
Recruiting tanks is one of the toughest aspects of being a GM so when they don’t come rolling in you need to find alternatives to keep your guild from falling apart. What do I do? Well I roll my own tank for the guild. Being as mages and Shadow priests are a dime a dozen on just about any realm, Thrall being no exception I thought a tank would be more more of a value. Introducing Darrken. Named from the ultimate fantasy villian Darken Rahl from Terry Goodkind’s Sword of Truth Series. I will post regular updates on Darrken as we rush him to 70 so we can start some guild progression.
