Wow nice! Yeah, it does seem really fast nowadays, I haven't quested
in Northrend since the change but I'm fairly sure it was in when my bf
was levelling his rogue and my dk tagged along for a few instance
boosts - went from 77 to 80 in no time!

Hehe good luck :-) I'm still nervous about healing anything much, what
I have done was mostly fairly tricky, although perhaps I just hit bad
groups!
May as well add my weekly update onto this thread: well... lots of
event stuff, to the point where that's about all I did. Darkmoon, Love
Is In The Air, and some dailies on some alts too, and that took up so
much time I did almost nothing else.
One other thing I have been doing is levelling my ironman character -
lvl 19 troll rogue, currently, and still my first attempt - I've not
played him that much, hence the slowness, but at least no deaths. I'm
thinking I was lucky rolling a rogue, at higher lvls hunter will win
out with pets and feign death, but at present rogues are great,
stealth and sap avoid most potential problems. 5 lvls till vanish :-)
