Round, round, get around, we get around....

The Purple Poxers took a bit of a break from instances last night in order to finish up a couple of class quests, grab some flight points, and....uh, spend some time in instances...lol. We all started the night at level 30.

We met up in 1K needles in order to run to RFK for the guano quest. We skipped the first boss to the left, killed the boss that drops the caster stuff (gratz Sal!), skipped the dude with the two "rare" adds, and ended with picking up bat poop.

After hearthing to UC, we took care of turn ins and pick ups and swam across the lake to complete the quest we picked up in the Graveyard. We ran down to southern Hillsbrad for Wara's quest, grabbed the FP in Tarren Mill, and headed over to Hammerfall. We aggro'd the Alliance level 37 patrol, which chased us almost all the way to Hammerfall! We picked up a spider along the way, but I kept Renewing/PW: Shielding as we were running, and we arrived a little beaten up, but intact.

Wara's quest took us to the Wetlands to collect something off the orcs there, and since we were already halfway (ok, 1/3rd of the way) to the Badlands, we pushed on to Kargath. Loch Modan wasn't all that bad; we didn't smack any of the flagged NPC's around, so we weren't flagged. The real trouble started when we encountered the level 35+ mobs in the Badlands. Stealthed leopards, wolves, and the occasional Dark Iron Dwarf all conspired to make our trek to Kargath difficult. We passed by the goblins with a train of critters chasing us, and they didn't even offer to help!

We survived the critters only to be confronted by the rock elementals. And this is where Sal and I finally died. Wara, Madja, and Harisan were all able to get to the other side and drop aggro....

...and I had a soulstone!! Woot! I waited until the mobs reset, rezzed, and booked! I had some chasing me, but with mana and health, I easily outran them. After they reset again, we went back for Harisan to rez Sal. After that, grabbed the fp, made our way to Ratchet, and Wara finally completed his quest. /whew!

Oh, look, we have almost an hour left...hmmmm. Hearth to UC, run around, head to the SM: Graveyard and Pox the place! That last run was definitely worth it as Harisan got a sweet hammer, and I picked up some nice shoulders.

Next week, SM:Library! We should be able to run this thing at least twice and possibly more, which will be nice as Doan drops caster loot and we have 3 clothies.
