I now have my first.. EVER… Horde Level 80! Dinged just outside of pretty much the final quest in Zul’Drak, by just grinding XP.
I don’t know how I did it though. I was killing 76s and 77s, but wasn’t getting the XP I needed. So I tried doing that group quest that Benie soloed… I failed to. 🙁
Somehow though I was actually.. gaining XP, by failing. How?!
I tried this idea by killing these two guys, thinking if I get out of range, I won’t be attacked by those missiles the boss uses. I looked at my XP… and noticed I need one more fucking kill. Killed. DING 80!!! 😀
Now I have my first Horde Level 80, I can turn my focus on four things…
1. Getting my Skinning up to 400.
2. Roll a new Horde char, using the knowledge I have collected from leveling in Outland and Northrend. Maybe a Druid on the Horde side? Lol.. I’ll have a Hunter and Druid on both sides!
3… Hollow’s End (aka Halloween)! Doing the achievements I can do on the Horde side, then I’ll flip to Benie and do them on the Alliance side.
4. Nether Drake for Beefhunter? … HAHAHAHAHA.. no. I can at least give him a swift flying mount. Maybe get him to work on Wyrmrest Temple rep to get a Red Drake.

Speaking of Hallow’s End, I finally did what I didn’t do two years ago; killed the Headless Horseman! He’s actually pretty easy for an 80 Elite. I wonder if I can solo him on my own…
Wowhead really helped explaining what the boss does. He’s in SM’s graveyard. And you summon him using a Daily.
As for rolling a new Horde char.. I’m thinking of making my new Druid, a female. Just to see the reaction of people when they try to .. well, you know. I have yet to think of a good name for her.
