last night, I was a little too fried from work and other stuff to really focus on playing. so Viljo got to escort Aurochh around to knock out the elite stuff on his list.
Aurochh isn't on our list of toons for this blog, because he's my banker. he's a Grimtotem model Tauren druid; but I just don't like playing druid, so I think of his primary class as "enchanter". I want him able to DE anything, so thanks to a change Blizz made months ago he has to be 35. ... sometimes I just can't believe how long it is taking me to get him up to 35. but a nice side effect is, once I can park him in the cities, he can wear a tux. and I bothered to get him to 150 engineering, so he can make fishing lures.
anyways, now he's 32 - only 3 more levels to go! - and has done the RFD preinstance, and cleared Dun Garok, and has the Kargath and Gadget FPs. probably at 32 he can pick up the rest of the Arathi quests, or maybe do some in desolace, or shimmering flats... it should be easier going finally.
after that, Janedissa needed some help with the worm quest in Terrokar so I logged in Kuan to help. I noticed the NI MOTD was Karazhan, Wednesday, 7pm. that message got me thinking. NI has got to have at least 30 active lvl 70s. quite a few are keyed now; certainly more than 10. who is on the Kara team? are they just expecting people to show up? if they have a team, is the MOTD just to show off? if they don't, how do they expect to choose who's going?
of course, I would probably not need to wonder these things if I read NI's forums. but reading NI's forums means fighting with Ayriya and Carlnextdoor, and I stopped doing so months ago, when I got demoted from being an officer. but I've kept thinking about it all day, and I've come to the realization I will not get to raid Kara if I stay in NI. staying in NI requires that I avoid Carlnextdoor, which means no logging in before 10 on weeknights or Saturdays at all; that was determined last February and I only just reaffirmed it at the end of June whilst home sick.
and if logging Kuan in has to be outside those hours, then guild affiliation isn't going to make a damned bit of difference, there will be no chance to raid with him. or even realistically, run heroics, without a lot of sleep dep. yes, yes, as a side effect of that restriction, Vhaas is 58. but leveling up an NE hunter on another server isn't a solution to this problem any more than, say, working on open source projects is a solution to being stuck in a deadend at work.
hmmm.
