Outland Raider!

I finally found a magtherion group. I've never done this fight at 80. It's so, so much easier. You can ignore all the clicking mechanics and just burn him down. Took all of 2 minutes.

Pilgrim!

I've mostly been grinding out dailies that I don't want to have to run in Cataclysm (Kalu'ak etc.) but I took time to finish up the Pilgrim achievement. Some tips: 1. Getting the four alliance cities is much harder now that the guards are all 85. I wound up having to use an invisibility potion to get there. 2. Killing 40 turkeys isn't hard, you just need to give it a bit of time. Don't kill the next one right away - wait until there are 5 seconds left or so to kill it. This maximizes respawn time. 3. For the "kill a rogue of each race" one, try looking in BG's. Ever since they got rid of Dalaran as a portal area, the place is dead. Just sort the player list by class and go hunting for any dwarf rogues you can find.

So, what have I been doing?

Sorry it's taken so long for an update. I kind of stalled out after hitting 8000. It looks like all achievements in 16 more days probably won't happen, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying. I'm simply goign to turn it into "all achievements as quickly as possible". It also stung a little that all of the Kalimdor quests were reset! I lost at least 100 points right there. I'm going to start working on the new cataclysm achievements today, but first, I'll fill you in on what has been going on. Firstly, I've been making gold. Almost all of my time has been spent on gold generation. I have a nice little business on both the alliance and horde side factions selling Heirloom enchants to all the new rerollers that are coming in for cataclysm. I have over 100 of every low level scroll right now and I'm making a solid 4000g a day with 30 minutes work (after a LOT of fixed setup costs). In addition to the scrolls, I've been tradi...

Assumptions about Heirloom enchants

8000 points

Realistically, I think I'll get the "Over 9000" feat in the next 40 days and not much more, but I'll keep plugging away - perhaps I'll finally get a non-fail TOGC and Ulduar hardmode group together...
