59 is the funnest level, again

7 months after hitting level 59 with my original toon (human paladin), I finally got another one (undead warlock) to the same level. In between I had played a few others (dwarf priest to 30, NE hunter to 46). But I stayed with this character for the long haul because I played mostly with a friend who leveled his undead rogue at the same rate.

59 is still the funnest level. Last night I went from 59.0 to 59.7 by completing quests all over the world: a few turn-ins at Burning Steppes, an interesting set of kills at Blasted Lands, hearth back to Org, a turn-in at Felwood, a few kills and turn-in at Winterspring, hearth back to Org, a long flight to Tanaris, some killing in UC, and finally a few turn-ins at Silithus. Whew!

Now that I've played both factions and all of the professions, I'm ready to try something new. That would be a PvP server, where my friend wants to try out a NE hunter. I think I'll roll a NE druid for the following reasons:

1) tank/heal/DPS as needed, since the hunter doesn't really specialize in any of the above.
2) the awesome MOTW buff
3) Prowl in cat form for stealth (handy for PvP server)
4) being a healer will help us group for instances, which we largely avoided with these characters while soloing/duoing
