[2233 of 3346] Brawl'Gar Arena, Island Expeditions, Legendary Cloak and Mythic +15's.

 My default stance is that I usually don't bother getting a decent set of gear during the expansion because when a new patch comes out, it's all obsolete anyway. This strategy means that working on current-gen content seldom works out - I'm usually undergeared.

The main reason for this in the past has been that I don't have enough time in my day to devote to mythic raiding, but I realized that Mythic+ is still a perfectly fine way to gather gear and so for the last few weeks I've been trying to raise my ilevel here and there. I'm at 465 ilevel now, hardy spectacular but enough that I can enjoy most of the current content at least.

Because of this gear boost, I've decided to finally focus on completing the Brawler's Guild questline before the mount goes away for good in a month or two. I also plan on completing all +15 keys in time in order to get that achievement (and mount) as well as doing enough Island Expeditions to finish the vast majority of those achievements as well (on the assumption that people won't be grouping much for these in the future, especially for PVP).

I'm having fun playing. The Brawler's Guild especially - I've only been working on the questline for a day or so but I'm already past the trial stage, nearing the end of the whole questline. 

Anyway, I want to finish the questline this week, as well as making a serious dent in the other tasks. The cloak questline to level 15 is pretty poorly designed in my opinion - anyone who didn't rank up their cloak when it was cutting edge content is forced to scrounge for groups that are willing to take them, despite them having almost zero sanity protection. The only reason I've managed to hit rank 14 is due to the kindness of friends.

 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...
