Level 80 – To Icecrown!
The Lich King awaits...
This has been a while in coming this post.
I hit 80.
About 3 weeks ago infact 
After months of playing, about 530 hours of lazily levelling and farting about, I finally saw the final yellow ding glow in Utgarde Pinnacle with my guildies running in a 5 man dungeon.
Since that I have managed to massively upgrade my gear, so much so that I think I'm about ready for the hardest and highest level raids in the entire game: Icecrown 10 and 25 man raids.
I also spunked 4,000 gold on epic flying, which really hurt my wallet, as all I had was 4,181 gold :p
But I made up 1,000 gold in a couple of days through selling my alchemy produce and grinding out quests, so back up to respectable levels, although each new piece of gear needs re-gemmed and re-enchanted, which runs into hundreds of gold per item.
So thought is being given to dumping Herbalism, especially as the ability to find Frost Lotus for Flask of the Frost Wyrm is extremely low and taking up mining again or maybe jewelcrafting, as alchemy will allow me to produce the raw gem through transmutation, which I can then cut and socket myself. Saving me thousands of gold potentially, especially if I'm going to level another character to 80 (which should be a lot faster this time round!).
So I'm finally at the level cap, at least until Cataclysm hits, which looks to be in November of this year.
