Level 75: Windraiders are still the way to go

I just hit level 75, and Strafe is a beauty even when it’s currently half maxed. Windraiders are still perfect, so I will be saved hopefully from the 70′s pit hole. I really am starting to believe that Windraiders would substitute Squids and Gobies for my maple career until I get my Silver Hawk maxed and head to Jr.Newties, simply due to the fact that I believe Jr.Newties would be highly accessible for me once I reach to the level where my Hawk is maxed. Now, that I’m HP washing regularly, I am pretty much confident I’ll have to HP to survive Nest Golems touch damage (in case God forbid I bump into one F5) Anyways, here’s my current progress:
