Warp Speed Ahead!

The Recruit-A-Friend bonus is… wow! Just… wow!! *lol* Through their 20s the Shaman quickly out-paced the unlinked Hunter. Around 35 I started working on some SM runs with the Druid since the Hunter barely hit 29. Last Wednesday the Shaman hit 44 so I ran them around with the Enhancement Shaman, who was 52 with a full rested experience bar. As of this morning the Enhancement Shaman just hit 55 while all four linked Shaman are around 40-45% into 58!!

Right now this is actually working against me. I wanted to get some of the Outland intro quests done for gear yet stay in the 51-60 AV bracket. I'm not sure if the RAF bonus will continue once the Shaman hit 60. If it does, they will rocket to 61. Really shouldn't complain as my goal is still PvE for now. Yet I would like to get a taste of PvP while it's not all serious. See what I can do.

I've agonized over the Druid vs. Paladin tanking for a while now but finally decided on the Paladin yesterday. Being mana-based can be such a pain but a Paladin can still cleanse and cast while tanking along with most of their threat being passive. I tranfered Favor over to the secondary account yesterday. She's still 66 and full-up on crap gear so this will be an interesting challenge. I've never tanked on the Paladin nor have I fully groked 3.0.2—even more of a challenge! The split between physical stats and spell power is making gear selection confusing. Guess I'm going to blend Sorcerer, Beast, and Defender for the greens. The quest rewards I'll guess on.
