DPS class, it's a blast, blast, blast

Abbreviated game time due to pulling waaaay too much spousal aggro—and that’s all I’ll say on that. In the meantime…

Began by immediately queuing up for a dungeon, then balked when I saw the average time to enter was hovering around half an hour.  Not to be dissuaded, I started working the quests obtained at Camp Nesigwary that were mostly killtenrats, but included a few delightful things such as shaking tree vines to gather fruit, mixing up some booze from said fruit in a rapid random clickfest at a still, and disguising myself as a bush to lure a crocolisk to its doom.

At a second encampment I stumbled across the “Cold Weather Flying” trainer and made a note to book it there as soon as I hit 77.

All total, I was able to get in three dungeons and I’m getting very comfortable with a couple of them.  No new gear dropped that would’ve been of any use to me, so I had to content myself with a couple of minor upgrades from quest turn-ins.  The random group I got with number two was very synergetic: not the quickest run, but experienced people and we all worked well together.  When it finished, we ran through another together—it’s always nice when you can do that with a solid group and avoid 10-30 minutes of ‘down time’.  The end of the final dungeon carried me over into the next level (WOO!), so I sadly bade my random party adieu (they all wanted to run through another one) as it was getting late and I had one last thing to do…

Returned to the CWF trainer, plunked down a thousand gold, and flew away into the night on the back of my own gryphon.  It was very liberating and I eagerly await exploring the whole of Northrend from above once my leveling quest is complete.  Three more to go!
