Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

I had a very long, fun and tiring day today so I didn’t get on much but did sneak into beta to take a peep.  The first thing I did was of course fill out my talents.  I went with this level 70 build because I knew I would be wanting to level and heal the instances.  I have more than enough money to spec many times so I’ll probably play with a lot of specs

I went over to stormwind, I was very interested to see how they fit a port in it.  I remember the first time I read that I was like stormwind doesn’t have a port!  The map looks way different.

The harbor looked pretty amazing, and wrather huge too.  There was one problem I encountered.  The boats don’t pull up close enough to the docks.  I ran right up to the boat and didn’t notice and fell right into the water.  Then the client crashed, yay!  When I got back in the boat was still there but that crashed me again.  Then the northrend world server went down, no boat that time   Finally I was able to head out to northrend, you have to jump on the boat from a log

This side looks a lot different from where we were during blizzcon.  I can’t even remember the name of this area, like howling something I think.  It was fairly desolate looking and the little city here looked heavily under construction

The interesting part about the city is that it was constantly under attack by the lich kings armies.   I think this definietly sets the mood.

I tried many of my mods, but just like Inian had told me, they broke nearly everything.  Everything but one mod, THANK GOODNESS…   If I can have one mod, this would be the mod   Clique, my click casting mod still worked!

The achievement system looks really fun!  This is going to be something that they can update and do all sorts of things with.  A blue on the forum said it has no limitations. The statistical information it is going to track about your character is awesome too!

I look forward to being able to do a few quests tomorrow hopefully.

The download was complete this morning.  After a lengthy install it then had to do another 50meg patch.  Then I did a quick login just to see Laneer had been copied over and he was!

Surprisingly the first thing i noticed, well other than the cool login screen was my weapon had an enchant graphic.  Although you can’t see its entire coolness without animation it is a nifty wavy holy looking thing. Woot!  More tonight when I can play around more.
