Claz dings 70! Claz dings 70!!

That's right, today at about 11am (my time, not server time because I play on a server on the West Coast while I live in the midwest and there's no way I'm not an egotistical man) Claz dinged 70 while questing in Netherstorm. It was the quest where you take some orb and measure a manaforge just South of Area 52. I turned it in and *bang* dinged 70. And I announced it to Limited Warranty and everyone celebrated. You know, because I need ego stroking...

First thing I did was go to the bank and grab Valanos' Longbow that a guildie gave me. Then I realized that I needed to make myself a new quiver since I was using a gun. Had to farm 5 feathers and then I made it.

Then I hit the jackpot. A group was running The Steamvault and I got three upgrades: The Crystalforged War Axe, Earthwarden's Coif (I hate meta gems!) and... wait for it... Beast Lord Leggings! First piece of my Dungeon Set 3.

Not a bad day for old Claz, eh?

Next? I need to keep running Steamvaults for the Beast Lord legs, Botanica, The Shattered Halls (not just for the Beast Lord hands, but I want to rep stuff from Thrallmar) and The Mechanar.

I really want the Dungeon Set 3. I need to do more research to see if the Beast Lord stuff and the weapons from Thrallmar would get me ready for Karazhan. I might just be too lazy to research and ask the BRK Forums.

Today's runs in Steamvault really helped me get a better understanding of Crowd Control. It was horrible at first, but then it just clicked and there were three or four times where it went perfectly and I was pretty happy with it all.

Now I need to get Misdirection pulling down. The group I was with had feral druid tanks who preferred to use Feral Faerie Fire to pull, and, since I was half-panicked about trapping, I didn't suggest to let me experiment with pulls. Ah well, maybe I'll just go and practice it while grinding. I suspect that I need to find a macro to make it easier.

Ok- now I need to make some food.

Edit: And Claz got his first flying mount last night, too. Man, he's poor now.
