6.2 Arrives!

Hi,

6.2 arrived last Tuesday, and with it, tons of features and changes that will really affect my Master Plan, and play overall.

I guess the biggest of these was the Nerf to Gold coming from Follower Missions. This was done in 3 different ways. Less Gold missions across multiple characters, less crates from salvage yard, and crates not being as valuable. To see the overall consequences of this, I've been running a test on Alliance, and it's detailed here:

us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/18194074007

It's looking like it's about a 50% nerf, which is not good for my aims of getting 1M gold on each character :(.

For other 6.2 stuff (Tanaan Jungle and Shipyards) I plunged in with my Alliance Hunter, hoping to get Felblight from skinning, and getting the necessary Reps to Revered for flying. Overall, I think that Tanaan Jungle is fine, with the quests and general layout, although the Felblight grind got old very quickly. I got 33 Felblight after a few days, did one Savage Upgrade and then decided to stop farming. I think I'd much rather farm gold and buy off the AH. The Reps are going OK, but are a bit grindy. But at least there are quests with some structure for 2 of the 3 reps.

Another thing was gear. I was getting tons of Baleful Items (650) and just vendoring them because Fengsui (my Hunter) had better gear. Then I stopped to look at a vendor in Lion's Pride and saw that they sold an item to upgrade Baleful to 695 for 20K Apexis. This is awesome. Having over 40K on Fengsui, I farmed some more Baleful items and got a couple of 695s.

On the Shipyard, I did the quests to set it up, got a Transport and 2 Destroyers and just stopped doing it. Best mission chance is 77% and I'm not risking it. Stupid design Blizzard, having your ships able to be destroyed. And what's with all the Oil missions on alts that I'm never doing shipyards on, too? Shipyards is a bust for me. Once I get the rep to get a Battleship, maybe things will change, who knows.

Other than Alliance, I've been making progress on my Horde. I've got most of my characters through most of Eastern Plaguelands and they're holed up in Light's Hope Chapel at level 43. They've been spending a lot of time with Fiona:

Hanging with Fiona in EPL
I did progress Shammy into Badlands, thinking I was going to break her away from the pack, but decided to get all others to 43 before doing more on her. I also played Beasty a bit, getting her to level 73. She's just been doing Borean Tundra and tons of Dungeons. She's now moving on to Dragonblight, and will move to Grizzly Hills at level 74.

On Priesty, I've been doing follower missions and the Mine and Garden each day, and doing the August Celestials dailies and Sunsong Ranch, and Timeless Isle too. Yesterday, she finally got to Exalted with August Celestials and now has the Royal Satchel pattern. Then, she did the quests to get Twilight Highlands opened up, and ran Bastion of Twilight and Grim Batol. She's starting to build up Embersilk Cloth, and will go to Uldum for Volatile Life, to start making Hyjal Exp Bags for all the Herbalists. In addition, with doing the Fishing Daily each day, she got Fishing to 700! She also did a couple of runs of LFR, and got some 645 bracers for her troubles.

That's about it, let's see what's going on with the Master Plan.

Everyone gets to level 40!

Hi,

I had a goal to get everyone completed with Western Plaguelands and get them all ready for Eastern Plaguelands. I did it. They are all now at least level 40, with Combat being the last to get there yesterday. This morning, I started Shammy in Eastern PL and she got to 43 ready to get to 44 and head to Badlands. I'll probably get them all to 43 next, then get them all to 49 etc. I do all the low level leveling in the mornings before work, when CRZ is not too bad.

In the evenings, I play Priesty, my Alliance, and and leveling up Beasty. Beasty finished off Outland, doing all the animal quests in Nagrand for skinning, before heading to Northrend at level 68:

Beasty arrives at Warsong Hold
She completed quite a few Borean Tundra quests, and did a few dungeons, and is now level 70. She is being leveled ahead of the pack, and I hope to get her to 100 in the next couple of weeks. Priesty needs the Sorcerous Earth that Leatherworking will give.

Priesty has been upgrading the Garrison, and doing mining and herbing, and doing the fishing daily, and just got started on the Midsummer Festival stuff. I hate Torch tossing though, so I'm not doing that part of it. The gold is starting to come in too. When all of my characters got to level 40, they send all the cloth, ore, herbs etc. to Priesty, and she auctions them off. She also auctions off True Iron Ore and Blackrock Ore, which sells rather well on Ghostlands.

Preisty also did the first Wing of LFR (with the Saurfang quest) and leveled up a bit more. No LFR drops, but follower missions and the result of the Saurfang quest have taken her to iLvL 621.

Priesty also continues to do the August Cel dailies for the Royal Satchel pattern, and is doing a bit of Timeless Isle too.

That's about it for this week. Let's see what's going on with the Master Plan:

Leveling: Get each one to 100. Counting 90-100. Out of 100.

Priesty got to 100. 10/100 10%

Gearing: Get each character to 675. Counting 600-675. Out of 750.

Priesty got to 621. 21/750 2.8%

So, next week. 6.2 drops tomorrow, and this will really put a dent into my Horde leveling. I'm planning on getting a Shipyard in Fengsui, and taking her into Tanaan Jungle. Hunter will be the easiest, and soloing those elites for some rep. Once Fengsui has the three reps to Revered, flying will be unlocked on all. Of course, I will do daily stuff on  Preisty, and the follower missions on Alliance too.

Cheers.

Beasty Moves Ahead!

Hi,

Yep. You know I said I was debating where to move 1 or 2 ahead, or level them all as a bunch. Well, I decided to get Beasty moving ahead of the others, and get her into Outland asap. Mission accomplished:

Beasty selfie in Shattrath
She did Eastern Plaguelands, got to 44 and then hit Badlands. Then Badlands and a bit of Searing Gorge to 49 before heading over to Felwood and Winterspring. Then back to Swamp of Sorrows and Badlands with a bit of Dungeoning to get to 60. She's now doing Zangamarsh quests and dungeoning in Outland, and is level 62.

I got all the others to 35 too. They all went to Northern Stranglehorn to get their gathering up to snuff, and then went to Cape of Stranglehorn to get to 35. Now i need to get them all to 40 in Western Plaguelands. I started on that this morning, and got Shammy to 40.

Priesty has continued to do follower missions and now has an army of 19 level 100 followers. She got a few armor upgrades too, and also crafted a Brilliant Cloak, so now she's above 600 iLvL. She's also been doing the fishing daily each day to move that along. And Cooking is moving along too.

Oh, I also took them all through DMF this week, just for the profession quests

Another thing I did this week was to play my Alliance toons a bit. When they announced Flying in Draenor, I looked on Flaying to see what was still needed. She still needed to complete some Apexis Dailies, and I just couldn't resist completing the follower missions for more gold. So, I decided to do just the follower missions on all my Alliance toons, to keep the gold ticking over. And, because they had all been dormant for so long, there were Highmaul and BRF missions waiting for them, which resulted in quite a few upgrades. Flaying also did a few more Treasures, and is now 72/100 needed.

Also, my friend, Eccentrica, seems to have stopped playing. So, I got a new friend (Samantha) off twitter. It makes the game more fun to be able to chat with someone, and to see what they're up to in the game.

OK, let's see what's going on with the Master Plan:

Leveling: Get each one to 100. Counting 90-100. Out of 100.

Priesty got to 100. 10/100 10%

Gearing: Get each character to 675. Counting 600-675. Out of 750.

My First Horde 100 (redux)!

Hi,

Yep, my first Horde 100 is Priestybrit the Undead Shadow Priest, with Herbalism and Tailoring. She got to 100 mid-week, and then tried to get the Garrison up and running. Uggghhh. A distinct lack of Garrison Resources was really holding her back. She bought the Treasure Map of Frostfire Ridge, but those didn't bring in many resources at all. So, after getting the Barn and Tavern set up, I finally decided to break down and replace the Tavern with a Trading Post. Now, the GRs are flowing more freely, and she upgraded the Mine and Garden to level 3, and is working on other buildings too. When the Garrison is really up and running, the Trading Post will be replaced with a Tavern for recruiting followers.

What else Priesty did was to completely complete other Draenor zones first. She did Gorgrond, Talador, and Spires of Arak, which netted tons of gold, some Garrison resources, and several followers. Only Nagrand to go now for her.

With my other characters, I made a big change to the zone order. After getting Shammy through Arathi Highlands, and 35 into Western Plaguelands, it became clear that some gathering prof grinding was needed before getting to WPL. So, I decided that all the others should go to Northern Stranglehorn, where I know there is tons of wildlife to skin, Tin Ore to mine, and Kingsblood to gather, for profs, before heading to Cape of Stangelhorn to level to 35. Note that I decided to level all gathering professions as I go along, but leave all the crafting ones until Draenor.

Here's one of them in Northern Stranglehorn:

Huntingbrit in Northern Stranglehorn
I got a few of them to 35, and got one to 40. I'm constantly changing my mind about how to level them all. Level them as a group, zone by zone? Have one of them zoom ahead, like Priesty did? I just can't decide. Leveling as a group will be the most efficient, because resting will build up on the first, once the last has got through. Who knows what I'll decided next week.

Oh, one other thing I did was start a toon on Lighbringer to help the Gold Queen (from Twitter) raise gold for a friend of hers (Mother of Autistic child who couldn't afford a sub). So, I did get a toon up to level 17 with 70 odd gold from auctions. But once I heard she'd already got 425K in donations on the server, I stopped that, as it wasn't needed any more. That was awesome of both the Gold Queen, and the players on Lighbringer who contributed.

OK, let's see what's going on with the Master Plan:

Leveling: Get each one to 100. Counting 90-100. Out of 100.

Priesty got to 100. 10/100 10%

Gearing: Get each character to 675. Counting 600-675. Out of 750.

Close, but nothing yet. 0%

Preisty crafted Hexweave Gloves. 1/180 0.5%

My first Horde 100!!

Hi,

A special midweek post to let you know that I got my first Horde 100. Preistybrit is now level 100. More details on Monday.

Also, a reminder that I have two guides on wowhead:

I very nearly quit..

Hi,

Yep, I very nearly stopped playing WoW for very silly reasons.

1. I've been selling low level mats gathered and they've been selling fine. Then, they stopped selling. I was looking at a full mailbox full of returned mats :(

2. About the 4th quest into Spires of Arak, you have to kill Sun Sage something. I got whacked hard there, dying without even getting it to 50%. What the hell? I never had this problem before. So, in a fit of rage, I left my character dead, logged out, and stopped playing.

I played other games for about a day, but decided to give WoW another try. I came back to life and then downed the Sun Sage with about 20% of my health remaining. Phew. So, I'm back. And I'll repost all the mats and hopefully sell them soon.

Yep, it was really silly. If I'm going to quit, I should at least make it over CRZ or no Flying.

So, before that, what was I up to.

It was mostly getting the lower level characters through Hillsbarad Forest, and then leveling Priesty into Draenor too. I got Priesty through Mists of Pandaria really quickly, as she was rocking the 1-90 Heirlooms. It lets you cut out so much content. I think she did most of Jade Forest, a tiny bit of Vally of the Four Winds, and a tiny bit of Kun-Lai and that was it :)

Leveling in Frostfire Ridge was a completely new experience. Because I didn't know about all the things there, Priesty did die quite a bit. When attacking a Rare that suddenly spawned 5 mobs, and other stuff like that. But she did manage to get all quests and bonus objectives done, for a Master Plan point. Gorgrond was much the same as Alliance, and it was good for Priesty as she needed all the Gorgrond Flytrap. The start of Talador is similar to Alliance, but sort of a mirror image of it. Really nice. Priesty got to 96 for the Garden, and now has the Mine and Garden at level 2.

Priesty's also been doing Timeless Isle, for a bit of extra gold, and to get gear for the others when they get to 90. Priesty had pretty rough early time in the start and early FFR quests, so 496 gear will come in handy for others.

For the other characters, most of them are now level 30 or 31 and through Hillsbarad Forest. Only 2 to go. The plan is then to get them to 35 in Arathi and move straight to Western Plaguelands. While they were leveling, they sent all the Ore, Herbs, Leather, and Cloth to Priesty, who has been auctioning it all off.

Let's see how the Master Plan is coming along.

Leveling: Get each one to 100. Counting 90-100. Out of 100.

Cheers.
