I know, I know… My excuse this time is that this guy was a fairly old character, originally started in a slow moment at work. I resurrected him in v2.3 as a more spell-slinging angle on Bjorn. Not that I've been doing much spell slinging so far; that'll come later. This is through the Downs, with one relic quest in the bag.

2008-08-15 10:08pm EDT
Done Orc Cave and the second relic quest, with the third pending. Still feels kinda fragile, but he's starting to sling some spells now, and that's progress. ;)

2009-01-19 11:52pm EST
Swept Mirkwood and the last three relic quests. Running about half and half bearform combat and spell slinging for now. Does pretty good damage in melee, but still uncomfortably fragile…
