Addicted to Heals

I "rolled" this blog when Ideale hit the 40s, mainly to document my progress, share some "noob" tips I ran across, and "infiltrate" enemy territory for kitties (and originally it was going to be entirely in-character, but I chickened out). And I've have a lot of fun with her and Cinnamon, getting to 70, figuring out what I liked to do in the game (not PVE), and generally having a good time.

But in the meantime, I leveled Ahami — and found my niche and my favorite role in the game, healing. I started out leveling resto just to see if I could do it, because all of the leveling guides said not to; and because healing did look fun and I wanted to try it out. And I fell in love with resto shamans and with healing in general. I still play my hunter, but mostly to hunt worms and rhinos or for the very occasional RP or PVP match — the vast majority of my time in game is being spent on Ahami or my other healers, and they're the ones I'm doing research for, doing new things with, and working on, while Ideale has stagnated somewhat.

My focus for the past several months has changed to reflect my in-game interests, and I was getting a little annoyed with: a.) the blog title being misleadingly hunter-centric; b.) Blogspot; c.) feeling guilty that I was not writing about my hunter in my hunter blog; d.) feeling guilty that I was not reading and linking to more hunter blogs.

After ignoring my better judgement and not only rerolling my priest to be a "real alt," but rolling shamans, druids, priests and paladins across several servers the past few weeks, and after reading this post on Sandwich Rations, I figured it was time to stop fooling myself and any potential readers who might be looking for a hunter blog.

So ... I rerolled, and I'm heading over to Addicted to Heals. There are still some changes inc — the template will be changing, as I've actually started knocking out one themed around (gasp) WoW. But I figured that at least most of the posts would line up with the blog title that way.

And now, the Kitty Collector is closed (although if I do collect more kitties, I will post about it, along with maybe a couple hunter stories now and then).
