Magical Brawler - finally

The Family Brawler PVP Pet achievements can be fairly easy (mechanical and beast) or damn near impossible. I was on the latter. Getting ten wins with a set of magical pets took me easily seventy matches and the last one seemed to be a pity flee after I renamed my team "Please concede. Need achieve. Many thanks." I have a feeling that these achievements were much simpler to get before the PVP pet balancing/ matchmaking was put in place. Still, I'm getting along well with a variety of other things. I'm using All The Things to display uncompleted achievements in each area and it continues to be a truly fantastic addon. Achievement hunting is often so much about grinding that it's easy to forget how much fun the game still is. I want to complete all of the achievements in WoW because I want to experience the entire game and achievements are an excellent guide to the parts I've yet to explore. Finding hidden storylines and cool toys, new pets and mounts and obscure fish, all of these things show how much work was put into the world of Azeroth and how incredibly detailed the game actually is. All The Things helps with spontaneous achievement hunting and it's been a massive boon - I may well have given up the hunt without it to guide me.

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 ...

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 ...
