I am a little shocked you're bored already too. But then, the grind slows a little bit around your level and then speeds up again at about 40.

Stranglethorn Vale is a jungle setting. I had the same problem as you. It does not appeal to many of us who came looking for a classical medieval-looking RPG. So I went to a different area for a time (Arathi Highlands iirc for that level) and had a blast. I finally came back to STV and discovered it actually is quite an interesting area as you do the quests.

Another of your problems is Paladin...you will constantly be challenged to find ways to escape the monotony of swinging, buffing every 5 mins, swinging, buffing (really only if you solo)...But stick with it! Team more at this level rather than solo as this will help to lighten the grind. Like SM said, at 40 you get plate and you get a free horsey!

Yes, GW is the same stuff as WoW and WoW has alot more content so I doubt trying another MMO will alleviate the prob for more than a week.

I am still loving this game. Battlegrounds is coming in the next 2 weeks so that's a whole new world to look forward too.
