Level 80! 2/17/10

Brieanna hit level 80 today. She reached level 70 in 11 total days played and level 80 in 15 total days played. Days played are just what they sound like, 24 hour days. I think if I didn't bother leveling up professions and secondary skills, and didn't screw around in the battlegrounds, I could have done it in 10 days played or less. I didn't use any type of leveling mods with her.

Gomorra, my first character, hit level 70 in 49 total days played. What a difference in time.

Wranngar, my second character, hit level 70 in 23 days played. Quite a difference between him and Gomorra, and quite a difference between him and Brieanna.

I was able to equip the couple pieces of PvP gear I had been able to get plus the new gun and a cape Wranngar made for her so she is not completely ungeared but is definitely under geared. That's ok, now it's time to spend some time in the battlegrounds. She already has a little under 20,000 honorable kills. I really like fighting in the battlegrounds on her with the ranged weapons she has.

She has her two primary professions, Skinning and Herbalism, at 450. For her secondary professions she has Cooking at 450, First Aid at 450 and her fishing is at 370, need to work on that some more. Her riding skill is 300, she can pilot any type of land or flying mount, with the exception of the Helicopter which requires Engineering and Magic Carpet which requires Tailoring.

Shattrath Daily Fishing - Crocolisks in the City 2/4/10

I did the daily fishing quest in Outlands today for the first time on Brieanna. I have been working on her fishing lately and finally got it up to 250. I say I am going to get 25 points a day until it is maxed but I will probably only get 10 a day because leveling fishing is so boring, especially at this level when all you are catching is garbage fish.

When I went to see Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, he had Crocolisks in the City for me which is the one I was hoping it was, it is the only one I can do at my level of fishing. This one had me taking the portal to Stormwind where I fished at my spot in the canals. It took me about 14 casts to get my Baby Crocolisk. I took the portal from Stormwind to The Blasted Lands, then went through the Dark Portal and took the flight path to Shattrath. I flew over and gave Old Man Barlo the Baby Crocolisk in exchange for a Bag of Fishing Treasures.

When I opened my Bag of Fishing Treasures it had 6g73s52c, 2 Elixirs of Water Walking, a Broken Spyglass, which I sold to a vendor for 2 gold, and Toothy's Bucket. I was pretty excited to get Toothy's Bucket. That is a pretty rare pet you can only get through the Shattrath daily fishing quest and I got it on my first daily fishing quest ever on Brieanna. Wranngar did this daily for months and never got it, Gomorra has it.

Brieanna - Northrend 2/2/10

I got Brieanna to level 68 and hit Northrend today. I am on the final leg of my journey to 80. I have since leveled her to 69.

When I got into Northrend I picked up all the quests I could find then got to work. I got some nice gear as rewards and her gear score has jumped about 500 points. I am having no problem picking any of the herbs I am finding and that is a relief, I will be able to continue leveling my herbalism as I go along. I still remember all the quests from when I took Gomorra through there not too long ago and that saves me time.

One thing I am pretty happy about is being able to learn to fly there at level 68 instead of 77. That is going to save me a lot of time. Right after I got there Wranngar purchased a Tome of Cold Weather Flight for 1,000 gold and sent it to Brieanna so she could learn to fly in cold weather. If you already have a level 80 in Northernd you are able to do this and as I have 2 there it was no problem. Tome of Cold Weather Flight is BoA (Bind on Account) and requires level 68 to learn so I was able to mail it to her. It is consumed when you use it so you still pay the 1,000 gold for each character to learn it.

I also worked on my fishing skill and got that up to 232. I did a quest for Nat Pagle which got me a new fishing pole, Nat's Lucky Fishing Pole. Almost as nice as the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole, with the +25 to fishing skill opposed to the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole with +30, but no where near as nice looking. It will do until I can get my Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole.

Brieanna - Grand Master Herbalism

I have been working on Brieanna the last couple days and she is moving right along. She is level 66 now. She got a couple of her levels in the battlegrounds as I have been doing a lot of battlegrounds on her.

She is currently questing in Nagrand and that is going well, a lot of XP and the quests are easy for her to solo. She got her Herbalism up to 375 and had to go to Northrend to train for Grand Master Herbalism. This is great because it means I can pick anything I find in Outlands. I am finally ahead of the game on that one. Her Skinning is moving right along too, she is up over 400 on that. Needless to say I have no problem skinning anything I kill in Outlands.

I will be spending a lot of time on her going forward as I am looking forward to getting her to 80 and really hitting the battlegrounds and getting her geared. I love fighting in the battlegrounds on her.
