Underachiever: Every WoW Achievement

I'm finally done with Ogri'la and The Oracles! I really disliked both sets of dailies - they both felt like a grind because of the annoying mechanics for each of them as well as the lack of variety. The fact that there was NO reward at all for Oracles Exalted and only a tabbard for Ogri'la was kind of lame as well. As for the remaining ten reputations that I need to do: I've been keeping up with Hydraxian Waterlords each week and I'm at about 6.5K into revered. Using the guild banner and occasional 10% rep bonuses helps speed that along a little but it's still going to be many, many weeks before I hit exalted with them. Being able to teleport close to the entrance with Direbrew's Remote helps a lot with this one. For PVP, The Defilers and Warsong Gulch factions are going to take forever with normal BG queues. I've read the best way to deal with these is to wait for the appropriate "Brawl" to happen since the brawls allow for (say) ten fl...

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 ...

I've been playing WoW since the initial public beta of vanilla. I had a Tauren shaman and Plainsrunning was still a thing, although I neve hit a high enough level to use it before it was removed. In all that time, I've "known" that Gelkis and Magram clan centaur rep could never both reach exalted. It turns out I was completely wrong here and since 8.0, doing the Desolace quests gives exalted with BOTH factions! As a result, I have a plan to hit over 100 reputations without having to go for something like Bloodsail rep or something equally difficult. I'm currently working on things like Ogri'la rep that I failed to finish in the past, as well as Brood of Nozdormu, Scale of the sands and the four goblin factions (Booty Bay, Everlook etc.). I expect most of these to be finished in a week or two with the exception of Hydraxian Waterlords and the WSG and AB reps, all of which take an enormous amount of time to complete. Going back to the old content is...

I went through quite a few runs yesterday, including hitting exalted with the Ashtongue Deathsworn. I did Molten Core for the Hydraxian Waterlords rep (still a long way to go here) as well as AQ40 where I'm very close to hitting exalted. I also picked up five pieces of the class armor set from AQ40, useful for the transmog achievements. I paid 300,000g for a carry run to complete Mechagon hard mode (the one that rewards the mount). I normally don't pay for runs but it had been sitting there as uncomplete for a long time and was bothering me. The gear from the run took me all the way from 406 ilvl to 417 so it was worth it in terms of increased speed I'll have at killing mobs in the future. I forced myself to do Ogri'la dailies again. Being able to teleport to their zone helps, as did the "OgriLazy" addon to help with memorizing the order of red/green/blue/yellow flashes from one of the quests. I remember why I quit doing this rep in the past - I really dis...

With the advent of flying, I've managed to pick up a lot of the smaller exploration achievements. My personal favorite was the "sand surfing" one where I got to surf down sand dunes. Cool little minigame. As for what is next - I sometimes feel overwhelmed by everything still do do and so spend twenty minutes just dawdling instead of doing something more productive. As a result, I asked for suggestions in the achievements discord channel on what to work on next. The consensus was "400 Mounts". This is an interesting one because of all of the sub-tasks that it contains. To do it efficiently, I really need to also work on all of the achievements that reward a mount for completion, as well as things like exalted reputations that unlock mounts for purchase. Here is a breakdown of the mounts I have so far (from https://simplearmory.com/#/us/area%2052/deathspiral/collectable/mounts ) Lots missing, right? One thing to note is that there are MAJOR achievement...
