Exalted with all BFA factions, Venomhide Ravasaur and more!

I'm now exalted with all BFA factions, meaning I can scale back on my world quest grind. I also picked up a new mount - the Venomhide Ravasaur from Ungoro Crater - it takes 20 days of flying out there to pick it up. Finally, as you can see, I finished one of the four Legion PVP objectives I've been working on twice a day. The others are close to 20 completions as well and it will be nice to finally get rid of these since it takes a lot of time travelling to different places in Legion twice a day... Oh, one last note on pet trainers - the BFA pet trainers are much easier to complete than I realized. It turns out that you don't need to do their quests to do the "Family" achievements related to them, and you can fight them as many times as you want. Therefore the best strategy is simply to fly to one and battle them once with a family of each type, then fly to the next. That's still 15 trainers times 12 family types, so 180 pet battles minimum, but the fact that these can all be done in one go is a huge relief. I still need to get serious about the same achievement for Legion but I think it will be fine, if slightly tedious. Again, after pets, I plan on working on the mount achievements (which involve a bit of everything) then a mix of archaeology and fishing thereafter. My next post will cover my setup and addons in more detail.

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 ...
