About Me

A General Overview

The WarriorThe Warrior -

My warrior was not my first character in World of Warcraft.  However, it is my oldest and the one I consider to be my main character in the game.

I got into WoW late in the game.  I was not around much before The Burning Crusade.  In fact my friends and I started playing the game only 4 or 5 months before TBC was released.  Originally, we had envisioned playing until the release of the expansion and rerolling as Blood Elves.  However, thanks to Blizzard’s pushback of the release date, I remain a proud member of the alliance.

I have tanked everything in TBC on the warrior.  I had very limited experience preBC only getting to briefly see some of the content before we were neck deep in the wonder that was early Karazahn.

 

The Hunter -The Hunter

At one time she was my most beloved character.  She was not my first alliance character.  That was my mage, who to this day sits in Booty Bay still at level 34.

She is not even my first hunter.  Nor is she my second.  She is in fact my third hunter.  Started after the mage just got plain boring.  The hunter was only a baby of the level 55 when TBC hit the shelves.

Since then, she’s had the honor of becoming a Hand of Adal, and defeating every boss from Attumen to Brutallus.

 

The PaladinThe Paladin –

Like the hunter before her, she was not my first Paladin.  I believe my first paladin still sits as a level 19 “twink” on a different server.  She is better, she is complete.

I can not tell you how much pain I went through while leveling her.  Starting her off as just something to level with a dear friend.  Turning into a mission and becoming what I would really have to qualify as a second wind in the realm of tanking.  She reinvigorated my drive for the game.

While she leveled completely as Retribution. (Back before 3.0.2 when it was still lolRet.)  Soon after hitting 70, I turned her into a tank.  Since then she has had the priveledge of tanking everything through Kil’jaeden and killing Mu’ru.  Through some pretty interesting and remarkable circumstances she actually has participated farther than my warrior who is most definately my main.

The Shaman -

The shaman was actually a character I had started before I began leveling the paladin.  She was a baby back when TBC was new and she just did not get leveled due to some unforseen circumstances.  I had leveled the paladin to by my healer, but I could not stand healing and enjoy tanking so much more… Well you know the rest.

I have managed to bring her up nicely with the help of friends.  She was always destined to be Resto, but I leveled her as elemental, and hoping to be able to do a little of both with Dual Specs coming very soon.

Healing is quite similar to tanking in a lot of ways.  There is pressure on you to keep people alive, while having very limited resources to do so.  I can say with all honesty though, healing right now is a bit too easy.  I hope they do bring some challenge to it so the Riptide > Chain Heal cycle will stop.

The Person -

I am a Raid Leader for a fairly successful Raiding guild.  Unfortunately, we were stymied in TBC and never saw ourselves move past the Eredar Twins.

I count myself as both intelligent and understanding.  I am not the kind of raid leader to scream and yell and call people out.  We get things done in a mostly family atmosphere and we are successful in it.

I have led or helped lead “raids” in multiple MMO’s as one of the leaders of HNM/End Game/Dynamis Linkshells in Final Fantasy XI to my roles in WoW.
