Gelkis and Magram Centaur Exalted - an unexpected bonus!

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 pretty fun - even Ogri'la has a certain charm despite how much I hated it previously. Doing Molten Core makes me wish I'd not lost my original account since I had 8/8 Earthfurt anormor set on that particular shaman as well as some things that are no longer in the game.

Onwards!

 8/4/24: [Into the Storm]! I FINALLY had this one pop after over a month of waiting. 8/21/24: Taivan! I finished this with less than a day before TWW came out. 8/28/24: Lots of TWW achievements. I got 80 after three days and maxed out enchanting and did the campaign up until it's blocked. 9/12/24: [Sojourner of Azj-Kahet]! This one took a fair bit of time but was generally fun to do. I'm going to work on the other ones now, zone by zone. 10/20/24: [Loremaster of Khaz Algar]!  

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 ...

[3,445 of 5,450] You Know How to Reach Me

 7/3/24: [Neltharion's Legacy] and [Legend of the Multiverse]! I picked this up from the weekly time vault. [Scroll Hunter]! This one I am happy to be done with. I thought it was going to be a lot harder - wowhead comments imply as much. In the end it probably took two hours of farming Froststone Vault with crystals. [Treasures of Thaldraszus]! 7/8/24: [Treasures of the Azure Span]! [Wake Me Up]! [Treasure Hunter of the Dragon Isles]! [Treasures of the Waking Shores]! I have no more treasures to find! This one promised to be a slog but actually was easy enough, I just picked up Disturbed Dirt and Expedition Packs while doing other things like hunts. 7/9/24: [Forbidden Spoils]! 7/11/24: [Hunt Master]! I finally figured out how hunts work and realized that they don't show up until you are actually in the zone. As a result I can finally work on [Disgruntled Hunter] [Under the Weather]! I just logged in every two hours and got all three I was missing in a row!   7/13/24: I've b...
