Class: Multiple

So. Introduction, hmm? Sounds good to me.
I'm Alex, or Boris, or Draik, Daigeil, Arranath, Boi or Zulmaran, or variations thereof. If you've found your way here, you might already know me. You might not. If not, you're almost certainly searching for "WoW Blogs" or "WoW {insert your class her} Class" or some such; you get the picture. And I suppose that tells you what I'm bloggin' about. This is a WoW blog.

Herein lies a brief outline of my WoW experiences. Feel free to skip to the bottom if you don't care.

I've been playing WoW for about 4 years, and Draik was my first character - a Night Elf druid on Thunderhorn. At the time I was sharing an account wit' my sister, who I may or may not point you to blog-wise at some point. As a result, when she wanted that last character slot on Thunderhorn, I had to remake my character, and did, reaching the giddy heights of level 48 by the release of TBC. Slow, eh? 2 years, I believe it took me. I just about got my mount in time. Of course, to level that slowly I wasn't levelling Draik alone - I was also developing my warrior, thence-named Brioche, who reached level 60. I was part of a raiding guild and picked up a couple of epixxxxx. I also had a multitude of alts, and I had RPed sporadically on Thunderhorn with the few other roleplayers on there.

Come TBC, then, I had a level 60 tanking warrior, a level 48 feral druid and a level 15 troll rogue. These are the only characters who really mattered, and they have gone on to become my mains, for the most part. At TBC, I started focusing on Zulmaran, as one of my friends was levelling a BElf hunter along with so many others on SSL. Zul and said Belf hunter reached 70 after several months, long before any of my other characters. Brioche hit 63 and stopped. Draik was without hope of getting to 50. I had a Belf hunter at 48 on SSL. I then proceeded to raid with Zul, and acquired a full set of Kara/heroics epix, along with Netherblade panties from Gruul. Gruul was cool. Anyhoo.

At this point I realised SSL had died somewhere along the line. Noone RPed except within their guilds, it was on the tinytiny Battlegroup and so BGs were impossible, we were among the last to clear... everything, and it was basically empty. This was problematic, as all my precious epics were there. As a consequence, both Draik and Brioche transferred to Moonglade (Brioche changing to Daigeil along the way) and have since become my mains alongside Zul, although Zul sees much less play.

In recent times, I have reached 63 on Draik and Daigeil is now level 70, with TWO epix. Zul sees next-to-no play, and my hunter, Arranath, is my current interest, and I aim to reach at least 60 pre-Wrath, preferably higher.

End personal history. Resume interesting stuff.

Now that my personal WoW history is out of the way, I suppose you want to know what this blog will be. I intend to catalogue everything that I do, basically. Wrath exploration, talent experimentation, raiding. There may be class/spec guides, if I bother. Speaking of spec, Feral, Protection, Beast Mastery and Combat. There may be instance "guides", in the form of my experiences and discoveries of what works. So.. yeah. Feel free to browse through. Expect no coherency.
