Where Are You Now In The Game?

Since Cabriella hit level 70 I have found out quite a few things about my playing WOW. I do not play Cab very often. I only play her when:

* A guildie needs a run through of a dungeon or some help.
* A guildie needs an enchant.
* Our guild decides to run an old instance.
* I decide to run an old instance alone to collect some possible gear for one of my alts. and normally I find someone hanging out around an instance and they need help, I offer to run them through. NO CHARGE! and they get to collect all the loot. I do not mind helping and it makes me feel good about myself. I would feel badly to say ok, I ran you through you owe me!


I have not done any of the quests she has left in Outlands for the gold.

I have not ran any of the new instances nor have I done many of the old ones.
When Cab stopped getting XP, I pretty much stopped playing her. I have alot of quests left in Outlands for her to do when the expansion comes out and she can level again.

I have not done any of the dailies except maybe a few of the cooking/fishing ones for the recipes for her.

I have found that I like getting the xp. I did the Frostsaber mount rep grind, but there ya go, it was a reputation gain and almost like getting xp. I am not in the game for fabulous armor. Neither do I need alot of gold, nor do I want alot of gold. If I need gold on an alt, Cab can go grind for it, but mostly with all my alts I send all items and collected things to my bank alt and she sells them and she takes care of the money for the whole group.

I am not that competitive that I have to have great armor. I did do a few battlegrounds and got a few pieces for her, but that got old.

I AM a casual player. I know some folks say they are casual and maybe that means different things to different folks. But to me, casual means I play when I want to play, which alt I want to play and do what I want.

Stopping in the middle of what you are doing for a few minutes and it not being a problem is casual to me. In a dungeon, there is no stopping, you have to move on for the sake of the group and finish without dying if possible. I personally don't like dungeons. I can and will do them but I don't really like them. The ones my level 70 can blow through alone are fun to do but when I have to have a group I get a little antsy. My guild is great in groups, but we are hardly ever on at the same time and it is hard to get groups for a run in anything. I am not complaining just stating a fact. I love my guild and my guildies. They are a great bunch of people. I have managed to pass my altitus along to three more of them and they are leveling along with us. We are all about the same level right now, but my friend and I are gaining on them since they are on less often than we are.

I do not play alone. I have a good friend that plays with me every night. We quest together and have for a long time. His play style is very similar to mine. We are currently leveling our mage alts.

Playing a new character, learning its ins and outs, gaining levels, doing quests in a different area than before, is all like a whole new game. I guess after I have done it all, then I will have to find something new in the game to do. But, I have a long way to go to get to that point.

And that my friends is where I am in the game at this particular point!
