94/100 Exalted Reputations


I picked up The Unshackled exalted this morning. I'd been slacking on it as I don't really like the zone - the multi-level nature of it makes it hard to find things even with a flying mount and I keep accidentally aggroing mobs that are a real pain in the ass to kill.

The screenshot above is my current Steamwheedle Cartel rep. I did every quest in Winterspring and Stranglethron Vale (three new achievements there) and then I've mostly been grinding the pirates in Tanaris to get exalted. It's very slow going but a combination of the 15% bonus rep and the guild banner that also gives 15% rep makes now the best time to grind it. I'll try to have this completely finished in a week or so. One small thing that I noticed: you can't actually hit exalted with Gadgetzan while grinding these mobs - they stop at 20,999 revered. You'll need to kill pirates in Ratchet for the final point.

Other notable reps I picked up: The Oracles, The Ogri'la and The Scale of the Sands.

I've been slowly grinding my way through Hydraxian Waterlords as well. This is one of these reps that is simply going to take months and I'm resigned to it. At least I still need stuff from MC like my last Earthfury set piece.

To break up the grinding, I (with help from my talented, beautiful wife) ran through mythic Siege of Orgrimmar yesterday. Holy crap that was a lot of achievement points. This is what my "Raids and Dungeons" looked like before the run:


And this is it now:


I'm sure I did some other stuff over the last couple of weeks but the specifics escape me. I *did* do enough Alterac Valley to get all the 15 year anniversary stuff, including the mount.

One other thing I badly need to work on is getting a set of PVP gear that doesn't suck. Right now I'm blocked on getting Blood of the Enemy because I can never seem to find a group to do a PVP island expedition. I actually have rank two unlocked already, I just need a stupid island and I'll be set.

In terms of grinds, I'm alternating between the Tanaris pirates (to finish getting Steamwheedle rep) and then finishing off my Firelands rep. I also aim to do a battleground every day and at least one mythic ten each week just to keep my gear relevant. I don't raid right now - my plan is to raid hardcore in the next expansion, assuming I can get most of the PVP achievements this expansion.

Now back to Molten Core for this week's run...

[3,115 of 4,646] A whole lot of random.

 7/21/23: I started the day with some quests from the dragon hatchery and for Chromie. The Chromie one was fun - she turned me into a quest giver and had me hand out quests. After that, I did the Tempo quests near Chromie and picked up a cosmetic shades in the process. Next, I worked on the Daycare questline. I now have to wait until tomorrow before continuing. lAfter that, I worked on Loamen Niffen rep to get the 1500 for the weekly. The first quest I did however was for a 405 bracer that I upgraded to 411. (afternoon) I just learned that I can buy Vault keys for 50 Dragonscale Supplies each! [Every Door, Everywhere, All at Once] is mine! I also picked up An Odd Round Object, which is an item I needed to continue the "story" questline from Voraxian (this is an achievement I was working on a few days ago). 7/22/23: I noticed that Old Hatreds' mob was no longer evade bugged and so finally finished that questline, getting [A New Beginning]! Next up, Little Scales Daycare fo

[3,126 of 4,647] The Shadows Revealed!

 8/7/23: I picked up the Duskytooth Snooter by repeatedly resetting the Mechagon instance 18 times until it spawned! Next I did some more Little Scales Daycare quests and picked up two more pets from it. 1464 total now. Now to use my Ultrasafe Transporter and head back to Mechagon to get the last two pets I need. The first of which, Specimen 97, looks like it should be easy enough to catch as it's supposed to be unique but always up. The last one I needed was Yellow Junkhopper. I took the advice on wowhead and made a macro to target it, then repeatedly exited and re-entered the Mechagon instance in order to eventually have one pop up. I think I did this thirteen times or so before it worked (lockout is at 10, so it took an extra hour) and now I finally have [Mecha-Safari]!  I went after the Shadowlands pets next. I was missing four, including Clutch which is semi-rare so I went after that one first. The rest were easy and so now I have [Shadowlands Safari]]! 8/8/23: I spent a bit o
