How many chances do we get to take a screenshot of our beloved main hitting 80? Yeah, one. Exactly one. I mean, I know how to count. I saw it coming. I was carefully knocking down the quests while watching the XP bar. I was prepared to have some fun shot of waving to the camera or — I don’t know — doing something awesome.
And then my brain fell out. I can’t explain it. I was paying attention one second and then the next I was on autopilot knocking down quest objectives and turning them in and.. AAAHH, THAT SURE LOOKED AND SOUNDED LIKE A DING! Wails on the screenshot button.
So, what’d I get?
Yeah, that’s right. A horse’s butt. What? No, there will be no jokes about looking a gift horse in the butt.
Let’s see the gear that I was using when I hit 80. Oh hey, check this out! It looks like WoWHead’s magical mouse-over JS works for image maps!
That’s almost all quest rewards, though a decent number of the quests required dropping dungeon bosses. For gear that was passively picked up on the way to 80, I’m pretty happy with it. Except for the lame bracers of lame sauce, of course. Those have been bugging me for a while now..
What’s next? I’d like to swing through the last few regular five-man dungeons to see the content. Then comes gearing up to 535 defense for heroics. Avoiding crits is the very least we can do for our friendly neighbourhood healers.
But first I think I’ll go share a bottle of wine with Mrs. Zabery. Cheers!
