Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

I started the evening out on Deathwing, just minding my own business doing my dailies.  Then all of the sudden it happened….Loot lag, not just a little loot lag either. This is December 2004 kind of loot lag that lasted for ever and kept occurring!

Here I am waiting for a chest I opened to actually disappear and give me my stuff.   Hoping that no mobs come along and kill me while all this is occurring.  I finally had enough of it, as did Inian and we decide to go to one of our other servers (the reason we have other servers actually ).    I guess all those complainers about the weekly maintenance need to shut their traps, we obviously need it.  It has been several weeks now with only a reboot on Tuesday.  It must effect the high population servers worse, I imagine it is DB related.

I considered Doomhammer to finish getting the Mages to 70 but it is on the same cluster as Deathwing and was having the same exact problems.  In fact when I switched to it I didn’t even get a character select screen for quite some time.

Finally we went over to Akama our old standby that always works

I started off doing some of the questing in Shadowmoon again.  I was doing the little undead birdie quest and ended up having fun harassing a hunter while I was doing it too Mooshu finally joined me when I see Warlock and want to take him out.  I had seen a Druid slightly before hand and I should of known better but I didn’t…  I had the Warlock 3/4ths dead in my initial stun attack and then bam the druid heals him and we have a problem.  Mooshu gets toasted, I try to get away but the Druid has Swift flight form and the Warlock an epic mount before I get out of combat.  Then they decide to camp us for a while.  Eventually after like 8 or so minutes they give up and leave.

So I continued one of the quests lines and ended up over in Eclipse point.  Again doing quests I had done all previously.  Yes I’m going to complain about this before.  One of the most fun parts about leveling the horde was all the new content, and different things.  Unfortunately in BC blizzard gave the horde and the alliance the exact same quests to do.  Sure the reasoning you are doing it is slightly altered but its the same damn quest.  They better not do this again in WOTLK is all I’m saying.  I want at least 50% unique content!

Anyways did some more questing and then off to bed.  My goals on Mooku is to get a lot of the night quested gear in Shadowmoon and Netherstorm and while I do that get enough gold for my swift flight form!
