1000 Pets!

This turned out to be easier than expected. I used the addon PetTracker to view the locations of all pets that I had yet to collect. In addition, I already had a stupid amount of pets from earlier raiding and playing and from the SH. I confess that I simply bought all of the new Mists of Pandaria pets from the AH because most of them were 4000g each and it was far simpler to do that than to grind those older raids. I've also started working on the huge number of "Battle all X trainers in zone Y with a team of entirely Z type of pet." achievements. This is pretty simple, if somewhat time consuming - wowhead has a strategy for all the different trainers and types of pet so it's really just a case of flying to whichever trainer has a world quest up that day, checking which achievements I've completed with them, then moving on to the next one after winning. One difficult part is ensuring that I have enough level 25 rare pets to use as some of the strategies are particularly specific about the breed or type of pet used. As for other stuff, I'll still grinding out the daily quests that reward 1500 rep for four world quests to get everything to exalted and I check in on Legion Dalaran 1-2 times a day to complete the PVP quests that need 20 completions of each type - those are about 3/4 done now and I expect to have them all finished in a month.

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 ...
