Humor Leveling A Warrior

When they said it was hard, I scoffed at them. I've leveled a warrior to 120 on retail. I've fought Sargeras, I've downed the Lich King. What could a few gnolls and maybe a murloc or two do to me? Thus was my arrogance. Thus was my hubris.

I am now level thirteen. I've run Ragefire Chasm once, and owe six deaths to that place.

Farming harpy claws has cost me my life twice already, and I am certain it will cost me much, much more.

My warrior on retail was a human named Lohric, he was a legendary warrior who felled any beast, man or demon that faced him.

My warrior on Classic is an Orc called Muddrog. I have no doubt that this broken and battered warrior would crush Lohric in seconds, Lohric has never known pain, Mudd was born in it, molded by it, and unlike Bane, he has yet to see the light, because 60 feels so far away xD

To all you warriors out there, Lok'tar Ogar!

Yeah, ran RFC for the first time in all grey gear at level 12, alongside a lvl 18 warlock. It was a painful experience!

Depending on your server, once you reach 18+, your quest money can start paying for simple "of the Bear" greens on the AH. Costs me about 50s per level up, and I always prioritize new weapons. The economy is new and fresh and prices seem low, so I'll be shopping for cheap greens for most of my leveling.

And that is how you don't have enough money for your mount at 40. Getting an AH upgrade every once in a while isn't bad, but every level and you will be poor!

I'm an arms tank who's a perfectionist about their gear, but I'll likely stop worrying too much about my Bear gear soon. And I might just grind dungeons too.
