Goals

In January, Ratshag posted a list of goals for 2009. Ever since then he’s been working his way through the list and I think he’s managed to finish almost all of them. The idea of a list of WoW goals seems so good, I think I’m going to steal it. So here, in no particular order, is my list of goals. I don’t promise to finish any of them, or to finish them in any particular timeframe. But I do promise I’ll be thinking of them while I’m no doubt working on other things.

Level a priest to 80. I’ve been threatening to level a priest and I’ve decided it’s time I did it. What about the shaman? I tried to level him, but I found I missed my guild too much to level on another server. I might level an Alliance shaman after the priest. But I’m not making that a goal. I’m actually making some progress on this goal. I had a level 67 Draenei priest languishing in Nagrand and I’ve now managed to level her to 68, get her a hair cut, and move her to Northrend (Howling Fjord). I’m feeling pretty good about leveling her right now, so I think I might have a pretty good shot at getting her to 80.

Get a flying carpet. I’ve been wanting a flying carpet ever since they were introduced in Wrath of the Lich King. As it happens, Lyune is a tailor and since I’m planning to level her to 80 anyway, I hope to get a flying carpet along the way. Of course, I’m going to need to get Artisan Riding first, but that’s just money.

Heal one instance as a priest. This goal is far less attainable for me than you might think. I’m terrified of PUGs. And my guild is really bad about scheduling regular instance runs. So it’s kinda hit or miss. But I’m hoping I get at least one chance to try healing as a priest.

Become Exalted Argent Champion of the Alliance on at least one toon. Veleni actually has the best shot at this, although I’m going to be working on the AT dailies with Rubeola as well. It’s really just a matter of time, and sticking with the dailies. It’s completely attainable.

Get an albino drake. As I think I’ve said before, Rubeola is my best bet for getting an albino drake. I’m hoping to get one or more of the Argent Tournament mounts for her. And there’s the next goal that should help as well.

Have Rubeola craft a Mekgineer’s Chopper. Being able to craft the chopper will require dropping mining for engineering, and then leveling engineering to max level. I think I also need to be exalted with the Alliance Vanguard in order to learn the schematic. Fortunately, Rubeola is already 3/4 of the way through revered and I think she might get to exalted by the time she’s finished with the AT dailies.

And there you have it. Some goals. Ok. Instead of goals, maybe they are more of a wish list. I’ll report back if I manage to finish any of them.
