I recently bought some Valor BoEs off the AH for like 20 gold, and may spend some time putting together the whole Tier .5 set for 'standing around in town' gear. Was goign to do a full tier 1 set, but I can't solo MC on mt tank (yet). The Valor is doable (but tricky with no heals). <BR/><BR/>Fun is where you find it.

That toon's fun to play, but I'm having a hard time crawling through Borean Tundra again. I actually jumped on my rogue (level 41) but will NOT do outlands again.

I quit WoW because I felt motivated to do something with myself other than play a video game that requires 40 hours a week my entire life. Also, the fact that I had previously had a job and played WoW meant I had no social life, then the Wrath thing kicked in and you could spend 4 hours a week earning what other people worked alot harder for in alot less time. That's when I realized i'm not doing this for X more expansions and said fuck it.<BR/><BR/>I eat healthy, workout, have a social life and a job lined up that will pay 6 figures a year, and all of this wouldn't have been possible if I would have continued down my endless path of WoW obsession.<BR/><BR/>I don't condemn anyone for playing though, because I've been there and enjoyed it for awhile before the fun wore off. I guess all things in moderation?<BR/><BR/>Also Ixo, have you read anything by Neil Strauss? His writing style and yours are very similar, although personality wise you two are pretty far apart.Tragedyxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563653272708826682.post-80749759779797720882009-04-05T12:03:00.000-07:002009-04-05T12:03:00.000-07:00People who get bored with WoW just have trouble mo...People who get bored with WoW just have trouble motivating themselves.Kyirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563653272708826682.post-84426559859238541652009-04-05T02:24:00.000-07:002009-04-05T02:24:00.000-07:00I just wonder that you are still not bored to hell...I just wonder that you are still not bored to hell with WoW.Longaschttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315739202508784897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563653272708826682.post-1608528535298195052009-04-04T23:31:00.000-07:002009-04-04T23:31:00.000-07:00I levelled my warrior 70-80 as prot and it's a gre...I levelled my warrior 70-80 as prot and it's a great levelling spec :) Have fun with it.<BR/><BR/>Just note that you'll need 540 def to tank raids at 80.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563653272708826682.post-52975538869739134932009-04-04T21:53:00.000-07:002009-04-04T21:53:00.000-07:00Uh, I guess I didn't really spell it out explicitl...Uh, I guess I didn't really spell it out explicitly, so I can see where the confusion is coming from.<BR/><BR/>I wake up during normal hours (not sleep in all day), and then do 'wife and kid shit' all day long. The "unemployment bonus" just means I can stay up till 2 or 3 am on a weekday and play WoW. If I'm groggy in the morning, it's cool, because I can sit around in my underwear and drink coffee until I fully wake up. I don't need to jump out of bed at 6am, get in the shower, and drive to teach elementary school to teach genki lessons.<BR/><BR/>Being up at 2am even means I can hold/rock the kid back to sleep if he wakes up (bonus wife points!), and the whole "what day is it" thing just is coming from the fact that it's not "thursday, which means the cool second grade classes in the morning, with the 4th grade shits after lunch". <BR/><BR/>I fall into routines, and I'm developing a new one currently. Not having my classes is throwing me off, but not in a "woo hoo i'm going to the strip clubs all day every day" kind of way.<BR/><BR/>So yeah.Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01024497755617725448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563653272708826682.post-74776407551395817572009-04-04T21:00:00.000-07:002009-04-04T21:00:00.000-07:00Dude, you have a wife and baby.
