Bear and Critty Kitty have been leveling in Outlands at the speed of wtf. Despite my desperate attempts to do other things like fish and cook and level my Enchanting, I keep accidentally gaining levels. And as I did, Bear finally had nothing better to do and took Mangle.
It should be noted that I have been avoiding taking Mangle. The reason for this is that everyone has been telling me how important it is to all Feral existence, and as such, I dug my heels in and refused. “Eat your Mangle,” mom would say, “it’s good for you. There are starving gold farmers in China who would gladly take your Mangle.” And I threw myself on the floor, kicked madly in a ferocious tantrum, and took more Resto talents instead. But Resto talents are for dessert and soon my teeth rotted out and the collective WoW community got to say “I told you so.”
So, Bear took Mangle, posed as Critty Kitty, and promptly began slapping around all in his path with impunity. We’ve already discussed that Bear is a studly beast in his own right, but when he begins being a better cat than Critty, I realize I have to eat my pride and slink back to the respec button.
Moral: Take Mangle. Replace Claw. Don’t look back.
The great thing about leveling is you can really spec however you want. You’ll kill things faster or slower, but the only person who cares is you.
Nice to see you’re updating this :) Always a pleasure to read you.
