I purged about 70% of my addons yesterday as well. A lot of them were mostly fluff that I didn’t need. I still have the most important ones though, Bartender4, FuBar and Perl Classic.

I also got my flying mount for her as well, which is awful slow when you have the epic flyers on two other toons, even with Crusader Aura.

I’ve been running a lot of instances lately and have been amassing rep. I’m not going to bother trying to farm honor for any PvP gear since Wrath will be out on November 13th so I’ve been buying whatever reputation PvP gear I can get. The ret set is called Crusaders Scaled Battlegear. I’ve got two pieces so far, the legs (Crusader’s Scaled Legguards) and the hands (Crusader’s Scaled Gauntlets).

This pally is a lot of fun! Even with the post-3.0.2 nerfs, playing as ret is still much better than pre-3.0.2; we’re still op!

The major glyphs that I plan to get at level 70 are Glyph of Judgment, which increases damage from judgments by 10% and the a Glyph of Seal of Command, which increases the chance of proccing Seal of Command damage by 20% (takes it from 7 procs per minutes (ppm) to 8.4ppm).

The minor glyphs that I plan to get at level 70 are the Glyph of Lay on Hands, the Glyph of Blessing of Might and the Glyph of Blessing of Wisdom.

The Glyph of Lay on Hands increases the mana restored by your Lay on Hands spell by 20%. The Glyph of Blessing of Might increases the duration of your Blessing of Might by 20 minutes. The Glyph of Blessing of Wisdom increases the duration of your Blessing of Wisdom by 20 minutes. The last two glyphs of blessing (of might and wisdom) make those two 10 minute buffs into 30 minute buffs and that is very nice.  Currently, I’ve been using the Greater Blessing of Might and Greater Blessing of Wisdom group buffs so that I could avoid having to remember reapplying whichever buff I was using every 10 minutes. The greater blessings required reagents to use. The greater blessings also cost roughly twice the mana and the non-greater blessings.

The current glyphs suck, I hope they get better once WotLK comes out!

I’m in Nagrand at the moment after I flew threw Zangarmarsh and Terokkar Forest.  I barely finished the ring of blood quests in Nagrand. I was unlucky enough to be the only healing capable class in the party so once again, I healed as ret.  We wiped 3 times on the first boss and finally got to the 3rd before one of the party members had to leave. The tank grew tired of my lackluster healing and called in a 70 lock buddy of his and a 64 holy priest. Despite the help, we wiped once more and then finally finished up the quests. I got the Honed Voidaxe as my reward. This will soon be replaced by The Oathkeeper that I can equip at level 68. Speaking of which, I need to start looking for it in the AH!

Speaking of the AH, I finally replace my paladin’s netherweave bags with some imbued netherweave bags! Ideally, I’d like to have some primal mooncloth bags, but they are ridiculously expensive (300 gold-ish each x 4 = lots o’ gold).

I had one quest to turn in and that gave me 5800 xp and a very easy quest to burn some buildings near the Horde city in Nagrand.  So I ran over there and in the process of trying to burn the buildings and killing the mobs in the area, I actually dinged 67! Yay pally!
