Almost finished with Argent Tournament

I have been slowly working my way through all of the "Champion of..." achievements, picking up one every 5 days. I got Undercity this morning and I'm due to get Silvermoon, my last and final one, by the 5th of January. I'll get my pony then as well, and I'll be sure to duel someone to finish up the entire event set of achievements.

I got lucky this morning and finally got the Delicious Chocolate Cake recipe. This is roughly a 1% drop from each of the two cooking dailies and is required for an achievement in its own right as well as for several meta achievements. I've heard stories of people not getting this recipe over the course of an entire year of dailies, so I was glad to get it after only a couple of weeks.

I started collecting other recipes to help with the Chef achievement and once again I'd like to stress how good the Ackis Recipe List mod is - it shows every recipe you are missing along with exactly where to find it. I'm almost at 100 now.

I hope to start running MC this weekend as it's possibly the longest rep grind in terms of real-world time. (It needs 26 weekly runs to get to exalted). I also plan on completing all of the Northrend quests tomorrow for Loremaster and getting started on the low-level oldworld quests.

Finally, I just want to mention that I picked up a Battered Hilt on Christmas Day (nice present!) from Forge of Souls. The questline is a lot of fun and it has a nice achievement at the end of it. Oh, yeah, and a 251 ilevel weapon...

 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 ...

[3,339 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...
