The Arathi Highlands Doubled

The Arathi Highlands Doubled

Keya has been getting bloodied and muddied. She was given six quests and sent out to collect at least 20 items from each list. This is not a world for solo work. But that is what Keya is doing. There may be a few guilds romping across the scenery and taking out groups of elites, but what Keya saw was mostly small, unafiliated bands of players. Sometimes Keya managed solo, sometimes she had random help, and other times she ran for her life. Every encounter included an elite or multiple elites, as well as the major ELITE to bring down or GROUPS of elites. Pick your desired bloodbath.

Keya has died three times now, and she considers that good progress. Despite being out there solo, she has helpers. Keya is not shy about pulling enemies and playing the temporary role of tank while still dealing damage. Sometimes she even gets heals. Sometimes she runs her tail off when she loses her help and sometimes she gets away . .  and other times she doesn't.

 Keya isn't stupid. She doesn't just run in to every fight. As always she checks the circumstances and makes a determination if this situation or that situation is worth engaging in. Sometimes she starts things herself when it seems safe to do so.

She still has two quests to finish in the Highlands. Her gear score is now i285. Her AP is Level 12 and is 82% toward the next level.

The above is yesterday's news. Keya is out of quests in the Arathi Highlands now. Early this morning she encountered an in progress battle with a powerful elite. The battle was already joined, the loose group of combatants wrestling the monster they fought. Keya literally leaped into the fray. The beast we fought had a knockback that made it hard to hit. Keya turned the tide by using her Infernal Strike to leap into the middle of the fight. Every time the beast threw her out, she leaped back in. The elite beast went down.
Zidormi's Bridge to the Old World

Keya's stats budged slightly, gaining a gear score of i287. Her AP is now Level 14, 11% toward the next level.

There are no more quests now in the Highlands. Keya roamed all the way to the great bridge and talked to Zidormi, who maintains the Highlands. Beyond the bridge is the original world of Azeroth. Keya wandered around, fascinated to see the world in it's original creation. But there was nothing to earn there, only memories.
