Episode 262, "It's a bit mage-y"

Discord: https://discord.thisweekintrek.com Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/starmike Ren Shaman challenge Level 69 at 1d 6h - got through Outland, now in Northrend - 60-68 seemed very slow A funny thing happened on the way to the Alliance: Restored a previously deleted 110 horde mage, took her to Alliance and weirdness happened Mike Shaman challenge 15 to 38 in one night. Lots of dungeons and dungeon quests. Could get 2-3 levels in a run Rested XP was a waste because you blow right through it. Problem - Maraudon puts you in the dungeon, but no quests for two more levels. So, either quest or repeat dungeons. Problem with that is now you’re moving further and further away from Stormwind (Stranglethorn or Plaguelands) Had to run to Wetlands between dungeon runs. Waste of time. Not sure what else to do. Toy is 10k gold, and only gives faction flight points, not neutral. BTW: I still love Maraudon This Week in WoW Pet Xp event - 200% not 300% as originally advertised Hallow’s End starts Wednesday the 18th at 10:00 AM PST Running of the Gnomes - Saturday October 14th, to benefit the Cleveland Clinic and the creators of the Tuohy Vaccine, a proposed vaccine against breast cancer that’s showing great promise Run from Gnomer to Booty Bay - clear 34 gates Starts at 7 PM EST, purchase a pink tabard in Ironforge This started on Scarlet Crusade and there are raids on Scarlet Crusade http://runningofthegnomes.tumblr.com/post/164609327832/gnome-run-2017-faqs News Blizzcon 2017 All virtual ticket rewards Flying mounts in WoW - two seaters (we knew this) Other games - Overwatch Winston skin, Starcraft III Junker SCV, Probe and Drone Skins; Heroes of the Storm Nexus Razorback mount, Diablo III Murkromancer Pet, and a “mystery goodie” for Hearthstone.
