Grinding Argent Dawn, plus Netherwing and Jewelcrafting

I'm 14000/21000 argent dawn and I plan on getting exalted today (I'm running my wife's lowbie though UD strat).

I ditched mining and went jewelcrafting. I'm sitting at 421/450 util I get enough tokens to make a profitable meta cut and then I'll cap it out.

My enchanting scrolls auction system is going very well. Once I build up my cash reserves a little more, I should be at the point where I have two of every profitable enchanting scroll on the AH all of the time.

Doing all of this AH grinding has made me wonder if the skills are transferable to the real world. Because of WoW, I've recently started a web business with a heavy reliance on computerized automation. I think it could do very well, and the startup costs are almost nil. The simple act of planning out every step in a process and making it as efficient as possible (for AH gold generation) has really made me aware of places in the real world where similar strategies could work.

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 ...

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 ...
