All Things Gaming
The expansion is out and while end game tends to be the main focus of the game, leveling is still where it starts. How is the leveling experience this time around? In this post, I’ll talk about the introduction, the maw, each of the zones, and how long it took us, plus my overall opinion of it. Hint: It wasn’t terribly long, but it felt like it in some places. Also, slight spoilers in here.

The straw poll results are in. Looks like I’m going mage. To be fair, the decision wasn’t just made – particularly given that mage has been leading the poll essentially the whole time. It was interesting to see DK come from behind to tie for second place. Now… I was originally just planning on using this poll for main, but, given that I’m probably going to play 3-4 total characters (alt friendliness pending), AND I wanted to play one of each armor type (mostly for those sweet legendary sets), this poll sets up an ideal top 4.
I’ll likely make a post about the others later, but this one will go into, just a little bit, about my specialization and covenant choices. Information about Mage Covenant choices, specs, with some links to pertinent information and videos are below.

I’ve accomplished, so far, a couple of my weekend goals for the lead up to WoW’s new Shadowlands expansion. I’ve gotten my DH to 50 and I’ve (mostly) fixed my UI and key binds. The bulk of my UI is done with ElvUI and the Shadows & Light addon for that. Also very visible is Details in the right corner.
Here’s the UI just flying around, then what it looks like in combat. In combat, you’ll also see a demon hunter weak aura pop up.

I’ve been slacking a bit. Both in writing this article and also doing the things that will be contained in it. I intended to write this (and start doing the things) several days ago. I was to be the “last week of prep” and not last weekend, but, here we are. This isn’t necessarily a guide for everyone, because we all have different things left to do, but it could give you some ideas to tackle before launch.

Welcome to ‘In Search of Fortune’, a new monthly series where I discuss my gold goals and in-game money making strategies.
In my first In Search of Fortune post, I declared my goal to get the bruto mount before the prepatch hit. At the time, the true date was unknown and I expected to need to fulfill the 500k quota (I had 4.5m) in about 10 days from the time of the post. The picture above is a big ol’ spoiler regarding that quest. I managed to average ~75k profit per day for that week and finished a couple of days before (what I believed) was the last day. Of course, pre-patch got pushed back weeks more and I’d have had plenty of time to get the 500k. However, I was still pretty happy with getting it done then. For the rest of this post, I’ll go over my gold goals for Shadowlands. This will be something you can come back in a year or two and yell at me if I didn’t get it done. Make sure to subscribe or bookmark or whatever so you can do that then.
