Apparently my resolve not to boost lasted less than two days, when hubby boosted his Paladin I joined him and boosted my Templar. I felt guilty, incredibly guilty to be honest. I had almost caught up on AA and had a journal full of quests which were suddenly gray. I’m somewhat over the guilt but am still going back completing those gray quests when I can’t sleep.
Why do I feel guilty? Simple, behind on language quests, heritage and signature quests, faction, and story and lore. I can catch-up on most of it but I really wish they had included a cut-scene that caught the player up on the story. Since any player can boost, it is easy to have no clue what is going on in the story.
One of the first things we both did was get caught up on deity quests. Imagine my surprise when I get to the last step of my deity quest line and am confronted with the avatar of my god and he’s a GRAY. No seriously, my jaw dropped and I just sat there and stared for a good couple of minutes. I have relatively high faction with good old Rodcet Nife but still I am contemplating renouncing my faith and switching gods. It is very likely that I will be renouncing.
Hubby and I have been demolishing everything we come up against, separately and when paired up. The quest line for the Othmir prophet made me tear up and I found the quest chain very well written and thoughtful. We’ve moved on from the Great Divide but I’m sure we will run into the friendly Othmir again. We have been doing the Qeynos quest chains and heritage and signature quests, in fact we are on the last couple of steps for rescuing Lucan D’Lere. We are on hold until we reach level 90 and drag a couple of guildies along to Vasty Deep.
AA seems to be much easier to gain now than at lower levels, it may have more to do with the pressure being off to reach 280 AA by level 90. Hubby dinged 87 and I[m just shy of 87, we both have 290 AA each which is nice. We are having fun. We recently did the Erudin Library. It is beautiful and I wish they had made it a player housing option. I loved the bookcases and the stairs made from magical books. I loved the murder mystery to be solved and the overall feel of the Library. I didn’t get lost or turned around, unlike when we delved into The Hole earlier this week. All I can say, is thank heavens Hubby has a sense of direction and can read a map otherwise I’d still be lost in The Hole.

Overall, despite the guilt I don’t regret boosting. I will eventually catch-up on languages and quests. Having one character at max level will make it easier for other characters to gain AA as they level. There are so many beautiful zones and story lines waiting to discover I am looking forward to catching-up and figuring it all out.
