Welcome to Hammer Heals

Bandin relaxing on his Winged Guardian near the lake in Stormwind.

I've been playing World of Warcraft since just before the launch of the Icecrown raids. My very first character was a dwarven warrior by the name of Tierk who still exists out in the world of Azeroth somewhere but was not actually on my own account. Before getting to level 80 the first time I decided to re-roll a new warrior on an account in my own name. 

That warrior lasted a pretty long time, but then I discovered the Paladin class and Bandin was born. He's been through a lot over the past 14 months, changing back and forth from dwarf to draenei a few times, but he's finally settled into his rightful place as a dwarven beast of holy light. 

Over the time I've been playing I've rolled several characters of many different classes, but as of this past weekend I decided it was time to focus on my one true love, the Paladin. With the decision came the cleaning out of my character stable, leaving me with three level 85 characters; my main, Bandin; my main alt, Segovax; and a spritely shaman by the name of Alakavish.

This blog is going to focus mainly on Bandin and his many adventures through Azeroth. I'll update on what I've accomplished recently with him, discuss the mechanics of playing the paladin class, and muse on other things paladin related as well. Another main feature of this site will be to express my opinions and thoughts about World of Warcraft in general. It might be to state my opinion on an upcoming change, highlight something interesting I've recently discovered, or anything else game related.

From time to time alt characters will make appearances, but things will mostly be about paladins and the game in general. 

I would especially like to undertake a very detailed and comprehensive guide to each of the three paladin talent specializations starting from level 1 all the way up to level 85 (and beyond). Hopefully that will get started by the end of the month.

That's enough of an introduction for now, return tomorrow for more news of the paladin kind.
