96/100 Reputations and I finally got my PVP essence

I found a group of two others to farm the pirates with in Tanaris. Total time to get the final two Steamwheedle Cartel reps was just over an hour of killing as quickly as possible. The 15% bonus rep from the event coupled with the 15% from the guild standard definitely helped here.

I now need to finish up Emperor Shaohao (currently 7,174/21,000), Shado-Pan Assault (13,158/21,000), Avengers of Hyjal (2,930/21,000) and one other out of The Defilers, Warsong Gulch and Hydraxian Waterlords, all of which are terrible grinds. I'm going to work on The Defilers for now since it's AB weekend and the bonus rep is pretty good. Apparently the best time to go it is when the AB Brawl weekend is up where you fight against computerized opponents but this is still a pretty good time.

Hydraxian waterlords is one of these things that I just have to do every week and I'll get there in about ten more weeks.

One other small thing: I finally got my PVP essence after I paid someone 30g to get me an Island PVP win. Paying is annoying, but there are never any groups available and I'm not in a PVP guild. It's looking like I'll need to join a PVP guild eventually to get all my RBGs and Arena wins but that can wait, possibly until the next expansion.

Speaking of PVP, a couple of those achievements seem utterly demoralizing - 2700 3's rating for example, or Honor Level 500. The 2700 in particular looks only feasible through cheating (win trading) since barely 1-2 teams get it in a season :(

 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...
