 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]!  

[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...

[3,416 of 5,120] 500 mounts!

 5/26/24: Then usual stuff. I did more Time Rifts yesterday and picked up some achievements for that. Today I did a hunt and got another bakkar color (2 to go) and completed [Treasures of the Ohn'ahran Plains]! 5/29/24: [Can You Dig It?] - this one took a lot of weeks. Glad it's over with. 5/30/24: [Friend of Ooz] - thanks WQAchievements! 6/10/24: I've been doing MoP Remix. My druid is up to level 61 and I've picked up the Houlon mount for [Gonna Need a Bigger Bag]! I also picked up a whole bunch of Scenarios achievements. I'm also picking up several mobs for [Glorious!] which is fantastic. With the fast respawn rates, now is the time to do this achievement without spending hours looking for mobs to spawn. Scratch that, the achievement isn't account-wide so I'd need to find all 56 of them in MoP to get the achievement. Still possible but less awesome. 6/13/24: I'm picking up two toys for [Gonna Need a Bigger Bag] since they are both 1% drops and then I...

[3,339 of 5,120] Pandaria Remix

 4/11/24: So I'm working on The World Awoken before it goes away in the next xpac. It's possible it won't go away but still, it's a good focusing mechanism. The longest one to get looks like it's going to be https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=16543/tetrachromancer#comments [Tetrachromancer] - people have done hundreds of hunts and not gotten all the colors. It looks like the strategy is to get class trials and do the weekly hunt with them to get purple bags, since those have a higher chance of dropping the colors (once weekly). 4/11/24: [Whose a Good Bakar?] This one took forever. I finally had it show up after a bunch of attempts. 4/12/24: [Puzzle Performer]! Finally! This one took forever but WQAchievements saved the day and let me know that it was up today. I also picked up [Adventurer of Thaldrassus]! [Longhunter] too! I picked up the Friendsurge Defenders toy and so now I can get the pet from the Emerald Dream! 4/13/24: Finished up the Eon's Fringe dailies...

[3,304 of 4,970] Progress on A World Awoken

 4/3/24: I'm working on picking up the Noblegarden pet for 250 chocolates before it goes away, then I'm going to go back and work on the main meta achievement for the expac. 4/4/24: [Dream On]] and [Adventurer of the Emerald Dream]! I'm working on the dragon racing achievements for A World Awoken. They just need Bronze so they should be quick to get done. 4/5/24: [Emerald Dream Racing Completionist]!  [Zaralek Caverns Gold]! [Zaralek Caverns Racing Completionist]! [Now THIS is Dragon Raceing]! and a bunchy of others :) 4/6/24: [Treasures of Zaralek Cavern]! I'm really enjoying having a clear collection of achievements to work on (for the meta) - it makes the list so much more manageable. [How Did These Get Here]! 4/7/24: [Sandstorms in the Azure Span]! I followed a group of alliance that were killing mobs in the area. Made this quick. I also picked up [Stormed Off] and [To All the Squirrels Hidden Til Now]!

 3/16/24: Planning. 1. Do seasonal/ one-time things like AOTC, Hearthstone event etc. 2. Do WQs that pop up with WQAchievement. 3. Do things with a long timegating, like Loamm digsites (only 3 per week, need 50). 4. Do one-time things that need a group if there is a group active. 5. Do the monthly Trading Post. 6. Do the weekly quests if relevant. 7. Work on a specific section, like "pets" and try to complete 100% of that section. 8. Do other achievements when I am close to them (ATT)/ am bored. Aim for 3 achievements per day to get everything cleared in a year. 3 is a lot - I've averaged one per day so far.  3/17/24: More Heathstone events plus some work on pet achievements - various Aquatic, Beast, Critter etc. I also started working on [An Awfully Big Adventure] since I needed Trunks for one of the strats. I paid 140k for a 9/9 Heroic run:  I finished the Hearthstone achievement: 3/18/24: A quick WoD timewalking dungeon for the 500 Timewarped Badges and then I started ...

[3,273 of 4,955] Heathstone!

 2/28/24: [The Azure Span: Gold]! 3/8/24: Took a small break but back now. I picked up [There's No Place Like Loamm]!  This is the last of the dragon isles renkown reps and unlocks barter boulder trading, which I'm about to go do. Sadly I only have enough boulders (and resources) for 66 boulders. It's 85 for the mount and 249 for the hat so I have a long way to go. I did pick up the Niffen mount and a couple of pets though! 3/10/24: [To All The Squirrels Burried Beneath]! 3/11/24: I've been working on some of the Secrets for [Whodummit?]. I picked up the torch yesterday which let me do [Community Rumors] and [Community Rumor Mill]!    Next up is the Hearthstone week-long event. I got the mount from logging in to Hearthstone and I played a game of it: Not much else to say here. Currently waiting on the hourly event to get more cards. I need all of them for the achievement. 3/16/24: I've mostly been logging in to do the Hearthstone event every hour (and now every 30 m...

[3,259 of 4,954] Another level 50 - Highmountain

    1/30/24: I unlocked Old Stratholme!Unlocking the secret was actually a lot of fun - it FELT like something secret and hidden. I got vibes like the old Onyxia attunement quests which had a feeling of achivement behind them once complete - a new thing that you could do that others could not. I'm going to unlock Naxx soon enough once my wife is ready. Actually, this is part of why it was fun - my wife and I played together, first farming the toy solo until one of us got it, then doing the work to unlock the old version of the dungeon. MMOs are supposed to be played as a group - who knew? :) I also picked up a bunch of BFA Mythic raid achievements a couple of days ago. Not a lot to say here, other than some of them were tough to do with 2-3 total players. We hit some walls where some simply weren't possible with two people so I'll need to come back and do those later. Right now I'm trying to decide between getting all the old dungeon achievements that I'm missing, j...

[3,230 of 4,954]] WQAchievements rocks

 1/6/24: I worked on Treasures of the Emerald Dream as well as picking up a bunch of mounts from the area and killing some rares for Adventurer. 1/7/24: [Treasures of the Emerald Dream]! [Storming the Runway! 1/9/24: Usual weekly quests and rep-gaining. Also, I hit 20 renown for [Warden of the Dream]! 1/10/24: Timewalking dungeons and more world quests. WQAchievements also got me [Global Swarming]! 1/13/24: [Scavenge Like a Vulpera]! 1/18/24: [Reclamation of Gilneas]! 1/19/24: [Unbound Monstrosities] I also picked up [A Most Efficient Apocalypse]. I tried for the other WQ one in the area (kill 40 trolls) but started it too soon. 1/20/24: [By De Power of De Loa]]! Nice simple one here - just get the four totem debuffs and then keep them all active while killing 100 trolls. 1/24/24: [Sowing the Seeds] and [Joining the Community]!
