I may have missed some of your earlier posts, so I'm not sure exactly why you are avoiding grouping up. [right][snapback]107381[/snapback][/right]

Thanks for the clarification, that sounds good indeed, seems I had not fully understood it.


As for the "solo" part, I don't avoid playing in groups at all, far from it. However, in part due to playing from another time zone, I tend to not be on as often when people DO group out (Lurkers at least) and I also like doing all the quests, reading all I come by and taking it generally slowly. I frequently group up with random people to complete a quest that is a bit tough or so though, but for longer playing, I tend to get a bit stressed when people rush through quests.

Due to not having played much instances at all, typically only the initial ones (both alliance and horde), up to, say Razorfen/Scarlet Monestary I feel I have not learned well how to play in them and have been reluctant to join pickup groups for the simple reason that I am not sure I would perform well. Yeah, silly, but that is one reason and the higher I got in level, the worse I have felt :) In addition, my character is quite set up for solo play and not playing for healing in instances (I play a Priest on the Horde side by the way, just reaching level 60!!). I am also looking for some good mod to help out with healing but the one I have, which is great in many aspects, typically get into problems every other patch or so.

Thanks!

I don't mind the travell between zones, I typically go and do other stuff while flying between areas. The problem in Fellwood is that it is a long *ride* that you have to do manually. IN part you have the same issue with the Plaguelands since the western part is accessible from Undercity and I hate that extra riding out of the toww. In other areas, the flight point is relatively close by (except Ungoro Crater perhaps).

The problem here is that the item race, as oposed to say in Diablo, is not much fun since it is basically completely non random and almost surgically clean of surprises or variation with every item follow a specific design formula for power and abilities with no variation.

I am having a great time and don't play so much that I am burned out (and took a two month mostly off arround Christmas anyway). There are still a lot of quests for me to do and catch up from earlier areas that I skiped earlier due to being too hard, some have great quest line and content and I enjoy them. I am also currently trying to get all my tradeskills up to max (tailoring and cooking is there, first Aid and Enchanting is getting there). I realise how gold is quite easy to get now that you don't need to spend in on new skills constantly so I guess I will work on getting my recipie collection for the tradeskills more complete as well. Basically I enjoy the game a lot.

I will also start doing all the instances I skiped and missed so far, that includes all the way down to Razorfen Downs I think even though in part one can solo some of the quests and I like the challenge of not being allowed misstakes in an instance since you can't just run away a bit for monsters to not follow you.



Thanks to all you other that commented too, I just can't reply to every single one of you but enjoy your comments and insight to the game.
There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
