Breeonna - Level 75 Elemental Shaman

I got Breeonna to level 75 tonight. I did some questing and random dungeons to accomplish that.

As far as questing goes I moved from Dragonblight to Grizzly Hills, then into Zul'Drak, which is where I am questing now. I am getting better XP per quest in Zul'Drak than I was in Grizzly Hills or Dragonblight so that's a lot better.

I did my first run through Violet Hold tonight. It was nice to get into a different dungeon and I also got a nice pair of boots out of it too. Now, with a little more variety in dungeons to queue into, it is not so boring as it gets when you just run the same dungeon over and over.

I will keep questing in Zul'Drak, then move onto Sholazar Basin and eventually Icecrown.

Heroic Gundrak (Dungeon)

I did the heroic daily dungeon on Brieanna today which turned out to be Gundrak.

Gundrak (also known as Gun'Drak) is the capital of the ice troll nation of Zul'Drak in eastern Northrend. The Drakkari tribe rule Zul'Drak from here, constantly battling the mighty forces of the Scourge.

Gundrak is an instance which contains the final boss for the ice trolls. This instance will show the Ice Trolls in all their glory, and teach us why they have been so successful against the Scourge. The story that emerges in the completely constructed zone, Zul'Drak, and the instance at the end of that zone, Gundrak, is that the trolls worship various animal Gods, like the rest of the troll races. They have began sacrificing to these gods to give them the power to fight the Scourge. The whole zone is recognizable as Troll, but with a twist to it that is true to the ice troll culture.

I did this with 4 other people I grouped with from my server, which meant we only had one person from the dungeon finder in our group. It went pretty smooth, it was a really fast run. We did all the bosses so I could get the achievement for it.

The bosses we took down are:

• Slad'ran
• Drakkari Colossus
• Moorabi
• Gal'darah
• Eck the Ferocious (heroic only).
  

There are two entrances to Gundrak, one to the north and one to the south. The northern entrance has the summoning stone outside. The first boss you will have to fight when going in through the north is Slad’ran. If you go in through the southern entrance, the first boss you will fight is Moorabi, the mammoth boss. Each entrance will take you down to the main circle. There are three bosses around the main circle, each one representing an aspect. There are roughly 2-4 pulls between bosses. Once you kill all three bosses and activate their altars, a bridge will swing into place in the middle of the circle (behind Drakkari the Colossus), allowing you to pass over the central altar. After fighting a few trash mobs, you meet Gal'darah, a rhino aspect, and the presumed leader of Gundrak. You can get to the center circle by jumping into the water and swimming to the stair case or using the stairs behind Drakkari. The fish in the water will attack you but will not follow you onto the land. Some of the mobs do an AoE knock back, so be careful when fighting near ledges.

Wranngar 12/20/08

I got Wranngar to level 76 tonight and the whole level to 77 is rested. I never thought I would get through 75 but I found that a flask of mojo I was carrying around actually started a quest and from there it just snowballed into more and more quests. I will probably look for another place to quest tomorrow because pretty much all I have left in Zul'Drak are group and dungeon quests. I have been doing the daily fishing and cooking quests too to get the 5 consectuive days of daily quests Achievement. I think I have 2 days left to go. I went to Stormwind and got my Druid training and used my talent point then headed back to North Rend.

Wranngar 12/19/08

I played Wranngar for a little more tonight. I didn't get a lot of XP, I mainly did the daily cooking and fishing quests. I didn't get much from them but I am going for the Achievement for doing a daily for 5 consecutive days. I have one quest in Zul'Drak I have been trying to get through without much success. I only have 2 quests in Zul'Drak and I can't find any more. I will try to get that quest done tomorrow and see what happens.

Wranngar 12/15/08

I played Wranngar for awhile tonight and got in over a half level so I am over half way to 75. I will probably hit 75 tomorrow, then only one more level until I can get back into the battlegrounds for a little PvP. I can't wait. I started off questing in Grizzly Hills then moved on to Zul'Drak. Questing is pretty easy there and I am getting a lot of XP pretty quick. That is going to help as far as leveling quicker. I don't think I have done a quest in North Rend that wasn't at least yellow. I spent most of my night in Zul'Drak disguised as a Scourge and doing quests for the Scourge. That was all to build up their trust so I could find out their secret. Now I have one finaly quest in that chain to do to complete it but I failed on my first try tonight. After that I decided to call it a night as it was getting late so that will be the first one I do tomorrow when I log on. Hopefully by the time I log off I will be 75 :).
