I thought I might queue Strawfigure up for the Bloodmaul Slag Mines to see how she did on that Beginner Dungeon. My live Shadow Priest is now level 70 and the skills gained in those next 20 levels weren’t particularly significant so I think I can play her through a dungeon as well as any other class.
I waited 22 minutes in queue. Sent some Followers on Missions. Because I am Insta-100, these characters haven’t been leveling with me, and they don’t have the array of Counter Skills needed for many missions. I’m sending these poor things out with 0-22% chance of Mission Success. They still get the XP.
I don’t have the group of Followers I’ve earned on the Leveling Realm because these were Insta-Assigned via Garrison Ford, the garrison guru on the 100 Realm. I always Choose Onaala, for instance and I don’t have her. She counters many of the things I can’t counter with this set. I wonder if I can swap for my real Follower set with the NPC at my Garrison who snares your Followers away when you get over the allowed number.
When my Leveling Realm character got to 100, I went back to my garrison, upped it to level 3 and voila, happiness. There were new quests waiting, I could pick a couple of new garrison buildings, and I could go through and complete any achievements I hadn’t done. I hadn’t worked on crafting much and I could work on that now. I thought, “there is so much fun stuff to do at level 100”.
With my Insta character, I don’t have that feeling at all. She was given Skinning and Alchemy as her Professions. Not the best combination.
There are quest lines to go places I’ve been and done, but meh, are they really worth spending time on for her? So what can I do with this girl while she waits in an interminable queue? Hmmpf.
