Ok, so i started to actually do quests in the Expansion, instead of just running around looking at the new zones. Leveing is no where near has hard as it has been lead to believe. Yes it will take time, no it will not take forever. I've managed to get 500k in about 2 hours, so figure 4-5 hours a level. This will also pick up as you learn where quests are and what you need to do. I spend alot of time reading the quest text to figure out where to go and then have to find it..

The new zones are Amazing. Alot to look and and alot of new mob's and such, my fav so far is Dragonblight, SOOO Many dragons in there. <3 Dragons.

A few things i've picked up on shaman, Flametouge Weapon Buff is +112 Spell damage right now at 70, in addition to the fire damage part. Totaly EPIC! I just learend the new Living Earth weapon buff that replaced Rock bitter, but haven't played with it yet.

Again Thunderstorm is free. YAY! 600 free mana every 45 sec. not bad even in a PvE setting. My Damage with it runs about 1200, Crits for 2000-2400. X5 is Brutal! Can't wait. Tho i've not used it for much Solo, other then an escape tool, i can see alot of potential for it, even if they remove the knock back.
