I have 43 bag spaces free.
Will that be enough?
Over the weekend I cleaned out my bags and bank, De’d a lot of the epics I had won with blood sweat and tears, as well as old pvp gear.
Made myself a “Can’t live without’ bag and put all my essentials, food, flasks, Haunted Memento, Steamy Romance novel ( for long flights?) all in one bag. I have another bag and a bit of a healing set, and my pvp gear. Then all I need to do is make sure I am dressed in my Shadow form then away……
I might stock up on some thread for my cloth leg/cloak chants, as well as a shoulder and head chant spare for decent upgrades along the way, and maybe some mats for bracer/feet/hand chants – anything that makes it easier – if I have the gold and or mats. Why not?
And tonight, the last day before Cata hits. I shall lose my Precious Shadow Pvp Spec and go back to reality and Pve.
No more silence, no more horrify. I shall not be needing you while I level, but I promise when I am 85 and if I haven’t been roped into healing. I shall return.
I’m not really prepared but I think thats enough.
I would have asked for some time off from work for Cata, but I started my new job today – well same job – different location. Susssing out the local coffee joints and food courts so between job and cata. I might be a little quite.

I tend to use PvP-like builds for leveling, since so often circumstances do not fit the ideal for DPS. The extra tools often save my life.
Yeah, I actually think shadow pvp talents are more useful for leveling than not. Do I want Psychic Horror, Silence and all that stuff? HELL YES.
Agree with the other comments. I’m a lock myself, but keeping one spec pvp and the other raiding. Think a lot of the pvp talents will come in handy. Too bad Spriests dont have a Voidy.
Klepsacovic is right, PvP specs are better for leveling, especially if you are on a PvP server. I’d suggest to have PvE healing offspec to be able to dungeons (or not if you hate healing).
Also, 43 empty spaces? How? I mean I have more without any kind of preparation. You have a 16 slot backpack and 4×20 slot bags. That’s 96 slots. What are you keeping in the 53 filled slots?
Full set of pvp gear, engineering teleporter, consumables (which I plan to use while leveling), other teleporters, my Elune stone that I never leave home without.
Being able to silence in instances sounds tremendously useful – many tanks would kill to have it to help move casters towards the party. Quick thinking and a big toolbox often save more lives than 3% more dps.
Remember that Cataclysm content is still designed around the gear you’ll get while leveling – absolute pure DPS specs might not be needed until you hit a gear check boss in a raid.
