Today I pushed my priest to 85 and geared her to tackle HoT Heroics. I already completed part one of LFR and am waiting on part two as I write this. At this point, I have 10 85s of all classes. I will make an attempt to finish part two of LFR tonight, thus giving all my toons the opportunity of beating Deathwing during this expansion.
Looking back now, I feel a sense of accomplishment as patch 5.0.4 nears for this Tuesday. The main accomplishments were to maximize my toons in terms of levels and professions. Although I doubt I’ll be able to finish gearing them all the way up, I do feel satisfied and confident that once the expansion comes out I’ll have a reasonable time getting through it since all my toons have decent gear.
Another major thing I felt I accomplished was getting the chance to play each class (but not each spec) to the max. It was a great opportunity to get to see each classes’ capabilities and push them to the end game. I know many people who never make it thus far and only make it to a certain point or drop off entirely. So for me it was a nice challenge.
More than likely, I’ll never have a chance to raid with my guild nor on my realm, Saurfang (except for the occasional BC ones). So for me LFR was the high point in this expansion. And getting to experience that aspect on each toon has been fun. I can appreciate each class a little better, despite having certain favorites overall.
I am not looking all that forward to the patch due to the change in talents and abilities. We’ll still have about a month before the new expansion is released so in the meantime, I’ll get used to the new abilities and see how they work with LFR, etc.
