My Priest Hits Level 80

Swiit Hits Level 80My Priest, Swiit, hit level 80 over the weekend. As soon as I dinged in Sholazar Basin I headed to the good old Auction House in order to get some new swag.

Four thousand gold later I had pretty decent gear for my Holy spec and had managed to level my Tailoring profession above 440. I’m using a lot of crafted gear right now but I did throw down some money on new shoulders, a ring and a necklace.

Where I plan to go from here with this character is anyone’s guess. I’ve run a few battlegrounds with him using the Holy spec and it’s been a lot of fun. I was caught in a long-running game of Alterac Valley earlier today and I managed to do just over 1.6 million healing before it was all said and done.

I’m slowly losing interest with my Hunter so this is a nice opportunity, I suppose, to switch to something else. Since healing is such a totally different gameplay dynamic than the standard DPS situation you get with a Hunter this might be a lot of fun. Or a total disaster.

I thoroughly enjoyed healing instances in Outland when I was leveling up but after a few really, really rotten experiences in Utgarde Keep and the Nexus I pretty much swore off group healing while I finished the journey to level 80.

Regardless, don’t be surprised if you see some more posts about healing and Priest topics. My secondary spec right now is Shadow so I’ll probably be rambling on ignorantly about that and my Holy spec in the near future.

Congrats on 80! Glad to hear you’ve been enjoying your priesty. I guess he wouldn’t have got to 80 if you didn’t eh? :)

I am not done being a prot warrior just yet, but I plan on embarking onto the lands of DPS soon… I have been leveling my priest and find healing interesting for sure… I might just have to level the Shammy next, but having options is a great thing. Good luck with the healz
