It's not really that I miss anything in specific. It's just that my fingers have better muscle memory than my brain can remember :-) Last night I repeatedly found myself pressing "7" which used to be my one "hard hitting" attack but which is currently unassigned because I can only really fill 2-6 and 8 with attacks (and 8 has always been multishot ever since I first got it, so there is no way it will move anywhere else :-) > >- my pet dies. a lot.

Oh well, I've hotkeyed pet heal now and have become quite good at remembering pressing it every once in a while. > > [snippage about iLevel upgrades] > > Pretty good indeed for such a short time! If you want more I don't think I'll bother just for the level. I've finished all the normal quests (and a first batch of dailies) I could get on Thunder Isle and that was fun, but I won't start grinding in 7 days, rather I'll just have a look around a bit more. > go to the Timeless Isle, you've probably been given a quest to speak with > Chromie, if not, go up to the Lorewalkers building in the vale (above > Mogu'shan palace) and have a word with her Haven't gotten that quest yet. I'll give that I go just to see the place and see what the quests are like. > although be careful of the mobs, they *hurt* when you're lowgeared I'll keep that in mind, thanks. Some of the quest bosses on Thunder Isle hurt, too :-) > Hehe hope you have fun! So far I am. On the other hand, it's still clear that to really enjoy myself I would need to immerse myself fully and give the completionist in me free rein. That is not an option, so I'll just have a look around and enjoy the short stint.
