Starting Over - a Blog Azeroth shared topic!

I'm hoping to start posting the BA shared topics on a regular basis -- gives me something to be accountable to!

Caze was my first character.. I learned a great deal leveling, some slower than others. On her way to 70 I also dabbled in warlock and priest leveilng, though neither made it to 20.. I got frustrated and gave up. I imagine the same would have occurred with Caze if I hadn't leveled with my boyfriend's hunter.

Typically, when I start over, I do so with a goal in mind. I started my first priest with the intent to twink her and PvP with my boyfriend's warlock. This didn't actually go very well, and my (lack of) motivation probably didn't help. I knew priests should be good at PVP - but I wasn't, and I didn't have the patience at the time to understand why. I pushed her to 80 (with my boyfriend's DK from 55-and-up) with the intent of having a viable healer so I could go boomkin, and having a competent shadowpriest for Razuvious. I really, really, really hated standing around for ages in Trade trying to find a shadowpriest that knew how to mind control. It couldn't possibly be as difficult as people were making it look. (It wasn't, and I don't think Caze got in on a Razuvious kill for quite some time after I got enough hit on Amh.)

I started Blue to avoid server-transferring Amh. Not much more to say there!

By sheer luck, Amh picked up a halfway decent PvP set. I've dabbled in Battlegrounds with her.. and I'm quite enjoying it.

To start something new? I'm struggling with that. Going blindly in to a class doesn't appeal to me. My paladin and my shaman both lost their purposes; warlock was one of the ones I'd always wanted to try, so that's my SAN character.

If I had to start entirely fresh, losing everything I had? Druid, priest, and then likely either shaman or warlock in that order. I like what I have, I understand how to play the two that I have, and I love doing it.

Although.. I wouldn't be averse to a bloodelf priest/undead warlock, because I think they are awesome.
