My current "check this daily" achievement list

A lot of achievements simply take a ton of time to complete. As a result I (like most achievement hunters) work on them slowly over time. I just use the stock WOW achievement tracker to do this. I recently finished the Venomhide Ravasaur mount dailies (20 days in Ungoro Crater) and I'm working on finishing up Free For All, More For Me which mostly involves hearthing to Dalaran and checking which PVP quest is up, then flying out there to complete it. The sticking point is The Darkbrul-oh which involves completing Darkbrul Arena twenty times. The main issue is that I'm seldom online when the quest is up, as it usually only appears late at night/ very early in the morning. The other long-term quest I'm working on is Wingmen which involves getting to max rep ("Personal Wingman") with all of the bodyguards for your faction. I just have one more to do - Aeda Brightdawn. This one is farmable but I still need a bunch of Garrison Invasion-related achievements so I'm just doing the daily with the appropriate bodyguard out. Interestingly, this achievement lists both horde and alliance bodyguards on it, but you only need one set of them. I think. Maybe. Damn, now I need to check...
The other stuff on the list are pet achievements, starting with some aquatic ones I still need to complete. I've decided to finish the rest of the "Family Brawler" achievements one family per week, since I still need to get one of the toys from the weekly What We've Been Training For... quest in Org. I've also set myself a reminder to go farm the stupid Vicious Broodling in Legion to finish off that achievement too. Some days I wish that I had a UI for my life that worked like this, with automatic tracking of goals.

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 ...

Beta update - best achievement EVER!

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 ...
