Of druids, and instances at level.

So, I recently started leveling a paladin and a druid on WoW. This will be my second paladin, and my first druid. My paladin hit level 14 last week, and my druid his 15 today. I'm trying to level them evenly.

So, the last time I ran an instance at level was back when I was leveling my horde pally. We ran Sunken Temple. Before that... Was probably back in BC or Vanilla.

So, my druid ran her first run through of Deadmines. I haven't been through Deadmines in YEARS. She dinged level 15 and queued for her first random dungeon. It was magical. It was hard, and exciting, and we wiped once. I wasn't annoyed, I wasn't pissed at band tanks or bad healers. I tanked my little level 15 bear butt off. I almost died several times, but the healer was awesome.

Even without the dungeon, I'm enjoying my druid. She will be a kitty, and then at 40, dual spec into a healer. Even though DPS wise, I only press one button, I have to keep track of stuff. I have to make sure I don't let myself die. With paladins, you just.. Don't die. You passively self heal, and only after you get into higher levels do you do any actual self healing. Still, it is few and far between. On my druid, I have to be a bear, jump out of bear, heal, be a bear, beat face. Its a new dynamic to the game that I haven't experienced. Having a main as a pure DPS class, its nice seeing how diverse a class can be.

Anywho, I need to finish my physics lab.
