That although I like Anyada, I don't really have the thought process to comfortably play a shaman. It doesn't feel right, they don't fight in a way I'm used to, the magic doesn't 'do it' for me and so forth. I also have a hard time soloing on her. Combination of not as effective in fights the way I tend to fight with the preceeding statement of they don't 'feel' right. :/
I'm not sure what to do about that; whether I should just tough it out for a few more levels and see if I click with it any better, or reroll her as another class. I don't want to give up on it, but what's the point of having the character if I'm 'meh' about touching her because I don't like how she fights? There's also the fact that she's been wonderfully gifted...and I'd feel really weird shifting it to a new character, but also weird giving the stuff back to those who gifted me (no point in it going to waste if I retire shaman-version Anyada...).
I did roll a nelf druid tonight just for the heck of it, and I think I'll like them as much as I like the hunter class. Even though on the surface they seem very similar to shaman, I just click with the button/spell rotation better, and they seem to have a similar 'feel' as to how they fight in comaprison to hunters. Maybe that's what I should do with Anyada...?
I like the new pet tab. I managed to more or less rebuild Ari's talent tree the way it was before the patch, but I seem to be missing a point or two. :/ I also like having a talent tree for Elder--gives me more control over how I want him to function in battle.
Tried the barbershop on Ari (I can't figure out how to get my nelfs to Stormwind, so I'm going to have to go looking for a map in the next few days). I wound up doing nothing more exciting than giving her earrings on her upper ears. But...it looks good, so I'm happy.
