Plan for the week

I'm still working on Loremaster as my primary task, as well as doing "The Oracles" dailies. I have finished "Icecrown: The Final Goal" which just leaves one more northrend zone to complete.

I'm currently working my way through the Ghostlands quests in eastern kingdom in order to get exalted with the blood elves and then I'll head to Undercity and Thunderbluff to finish off those reputations.

This seems like a strange way to approach Loremaster, but I feel that it's the most efficient route. I am putting a lot of effort into obtaining the portable bank/mailbox from the Argent Tournament before I start getting into heavy questing in the old world. Thsi will hopefully make questing easier, especially when it comes to things like storing lots of quest items or using an alt to buy things needed for quests from the AH.

After I get the Argent Pony, I'm going to work on Argent Crusade rep and then Timbermaw rep and THEN work fully on Loremaster. Again, this seems strange, but it's all about efficiency - the quests still give reputation at revered while killing mobs often doesn't. My goal is to kill enough mobs to hit revered and THEN do the appropriate quests. Make sense?

Remember to Share (300 Toys)!

This one has taken a while. I finally picked up 300 toys (and thus the mount for the achievement) after starting to seriously work on my Archaeology achievements for the first time. I've been doing the fortnightly Legion archaeology quests for a while (and thus had 800 skill) but I completely ignored this profession in earlier expansions as it seemed seriously boring. With some knowledge and a good addon, it's much better however. Some tips if you're just starting to work on archaeology: 1. Download the "Archy" addon. This addon does several things: first, it shows you the location and completion status of all digsites in the current continent. Second, it automatically sets the closes one as a waypoint for TomTom. Third, it indicates when it's possible to solve an artifact with and without a keystone, so you don't have to constantly check your archaeology screen. On top of that, the distance indicator shows when you are in the correct range from your ...

It probably won't make it to live. But check out this feat of strength from the beta:

A Song of Wind and Water

I've been working on Oracles and Ogri'la rep every day and have about four days to go. One thing I've noticed about these older daily quests is that there is little provision for high-level players that one-shot everything. Two quests in particular stand out as being annoying until you learn the high-level trick. The first is Banish More Demons in Blade's Edge. This involves placing a portal on the ground then killing demons within a few feet of the portal. The portal has a one-minute cooldown and you need fifteen demons. It was a slow exercise in frustration because kiting further-away demons was difficult sue to all my abilities one-shotting them before they got near. In the end, I learned to use the Shaman's "Purge" ability to aggro mobs without killing them and pull them close to the portal. The second, and more annoying, quest that isn't scaled for high-level players is the Ogri-la's Song of Wind and Water .  This involves weakening ...
