Squirt Day Prep and Comp Stomp

Interesting mix of achievements today. First, I worked on Paku'al which was simply bugging me in All The Things. I then paid 115k for a mythic 10 run because I've realized having better gear helps me do just about everything - I'm now at 433 iLevel and I don't even do LFR normally.

Today I did the Deadmines pet battle to both finally clear it from my quest list (it had been there for what seemed like months) and to start the work on three bottlecaps for the Pocket Cannon pet that I need for Argus/ Broken isles.

It's pet battle week so I quickly did fifteen pet battles for the stone and the weekly (I know I only need ten, but I was winning and they count towards Deadly Pet Brawler). I'd honestly do more, until I found out today is Comp Stomp day.

Holy shit the rep! I'm now revered with the Defilers and I expect to get exalted. The 15% bonus rep from the event is just icing. Two minute queues and five minute matches mean that I'll hit exalted with the Defilers in just a few hours of this brawl.

Finally, hooray for Honor Level 10. Just 490 more honor levels to go... :(

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 ...
