I spent some of the week doing high level stuff, and some of it leveling Fengsui and Unstable, looking to get my LW to 600. This really is the last thing I need to do before I transfer off The Venture Co. The bonus to skinning while in a level 25 guild is too much to give up.

Fengsui got almost all the way through Northrend LW on her own, and hardly had to rely on Unstable at all. That's because, at 400, you can make Fur Linings with Eternium Thread, and don't need any Borean Leather at all. Now it's DMF, and I'm trying to get through most of Cata before getting the +5.

The high level stuff I'm doing is mostly on Gnomey and Draeny. Gnomey for Celestial Cloth and Imperial Silk (for the Royal Satchel). She's grinding August Celestials to get to exalted to get the pattern. Also, farming up Windwool Cloth (on the farm) to get enough for the two cooldowns per day. Gnomey is also the main one going to Timeless Isle, and I've got 496 tokens coming out of my ears now. I'm starting to get lots of duplicates, so I might stop going there for a while.

Draeny has been making the Balanced Trillium Ingot, and also spent a little time on Timeless Isle. Boy, it's pretty tough on you at 450 odd iLvL before you get the buffs on the island. She stopped doing it after getting ganked by Horde a few times, which hardened my resolve to get off this PvP realm.

Here's the plan. Transfer the guild to one of the PVE connected realms. Transfer the characters 85 and up. Continue leveling the others on Venture Co., and only transfer when they get to 85. That way, I can level CRZ free.

My Horde got a tiny bit of play time. The Horde guild is now level 4 and 78%. The Alliance guild is level 25. Achievements have gone up to 3870 now, with the last two being Hemet Nesingwary: The Collected Quests and The Snows of Northrend (completed by Fengsui).

I didn't play as much this week because we went up to Tahoe for the weekend.

The plan for next week is to continue to level Fengsui and thus LW as well, and level Unstable probably so that she can help with Savage Leather. Play time will again be reduced though, because - I'm of to Blizzcon!!!

I'll report back on all the goings on at Blizzcon next week, or maybe have a special blog post from there before that.

Cheers.
