Mahakeya Doubles up on Glaives

Mahakeya Doubles up on Glaives

Keya has been stalking elites at invasion sites since the moment she was released from her starting zone. She's lost track of how many invasions she's participated in or even the names of the elite monstrosities that stalk her in turn. Keya and Jocy, too, need to start taking the names and grabbing a photo of these bad guys for future posterity, although that could be a challenge given the mad frenzy of an invasion.

Keya's single-minded pursuit of these invasion monsters and the swag that can come with them has borne fruit for her. So far the most prized goodies from the invasions are the boxes of (usually) level i700 gear. There are large and small boxes, and can include every type of gear except for cloaks, necklaces, and rings. The most sought after item is Glaive of the Fallen, an i700 weapon that can be upgraded in six stages to i725. Additionally, Coalesced Fel (another rare drop) can be also be used to upgrade gear.

Keya has been very blessed with superior demon hunter gear. Both of her i700 blades are Glaive of the Fallen, and she's been able to upgrade one of them by Coalesced Fel to i710. I was going to include some pictures of Keya in her gear and her very cool ground mount. The black and silver coloring of the gear is truly awesome, but it doesn't come out looking very good in pictures. I'll try to find a location where it can be viewed in the best light.

On the "how could I forget" side with Keya, I totally forgot that she is a brand new toon. She hasn't even been invited into the guild! She tried to access the guild bank yesterday and no go. She had to plead with Chaitee to give her some bags for her bank, which Keya had never visited.  That's too bad, too, because the guild couldn't take any credit for all the work Keya has done. Some time when we're both in game I'd like to get Mahakeya into the guild.

Keya decided her best bet to get her leatherworking profession going is to cross over into Draenor. She did that through the Blasted Lands portal, completed the scenario and now has an "outpost" in Shadowmoon Valley. The site is not yet fully a garrison, but it gave her access to Draenor and to Ashran. Keya has been out skinning but has yet to get the Leatherworking scroll she needs to do any speed crafting. It's frustrating that she remains stymied even after going to all this work to establish a base in Draneor.

Cool Note: Keya can one shot just about anything she encounters in Draenor. Elites too? Yes, two or three hits and they're toast. In some of the large conflicts where elites roam Keya was a hero, slamming down elites to help other players get their quests done quickly. She is running quests out of the Lion's Den in Tanaan because she still needs to get upgrades for gear she can't get through the invasions.

Cool Note #2: Keya helped eight (eight!) players finish the Rumble in the Jungle last night. Keya herself still hasn't finished the Rumble, though. She still needs to kill the first boss, which she can solo, but I don't know what to do to "turn on" the match.

So much fun right now! Keya better enjoy it while it lasts.
