Sooo Bored and Frustrated, and thus....

Hi,

Yep, not enjoying myself in WoW any more. I'm getting increasingly bored and frustrated with it. I find myself messaging my friend so many more 'Yuck', 'Yikes', 'Dammit' messages than 'Yay', 'Sweet', etc. ones.

I'm bored with doing Garrison chores.
I'm bored with running Follower missions.
I'm bored with the Shipyard.
I'm bored with doing Tanaan Dailies.
I'm bored with killing Kazzak.
I'm bored with LFR.
I'm bored with grinding rep.
I'm bored with running old Raids.

I'm frustrated with the amount of Preserved Mining Picks I'm getting.
I'm frustrated with the amount of Felblight I get from Kazzak.
I'm frustrated with the crew I get on new ships at the Shipyard.
I'm frustrated with the queue times for LFR.
I'm frustrated that I need Proving Grounds to queue for Heriocs.

In other words, everything is just now boring or frustrating. I think I'm burnt out, and I think WoW is a game that has moved away from something that I can have fun with.

I used to have fun leveling tons of characters. But with CRZ that is horrible, and not something I want to contemplate. I used to have fun doing tons of dailies in MoP, and running Heroics. But now we have the bonus objective type dailies, and stupid Proving Grounds for Heroics.

I don't have guild mates or friends in the game (except for one Bnet friend). So, I've been treating the game as sort of a solo RPG mostly, with group content only occasionally. It seems that Blizzard doesn't really want you doing that in the game, and they've gradually pushed people like me into a corner, and are squeezing them out of the game.

Thus, I have decided that I'm going to stop playing WoW. In fact, I stopped yesterday. I really doubt if I'll be back for Legion either. More Bonus Objective stuff at end-game, not looking to get rid of CRZ any time soon, and more frustrating RNG on top of frustrating RNG.

Sorry folks, but that's the end of the blog. Maybe I should start up a new 'Phil's Gaming' blog or something, with the games I will be playing. Currently, that will be Civ BE Rising Tide. I also dabbled in Torchlight II for 10 minutes last night. I'll probably look for other single player Steam games, rather than look at MMOs any-more.

In fact, here's the new blog: http://philgamingmusic.blogspot.com/

So, in closing.  I just want to thank you all for viewing my blog and for making me feel good about the viewing numbers. I hope I've interested you, and kept you a bit entertained while doing this.

Cheers.

Really Gearing Up!

Hi,

The major focus for this week was trying to get all the characters to 690. I almost managed it, with only Magey and Combat now below 690. This was done by doing tons of Tanaan Jungle, and funneling loads of 695 upgrades to all the characters, if they couldn't get 20K Apexis themselves. One problem I found was that you can only have one Baleful Trinket. So Combat is left with a 615 one. She's been trying to get a drop in LFR or off Kazzak, but with no luck.

Hanging out in Tanaan Jungle
While we're talking about Kazzak, I did kill him on every single character again this week. This gave me upwards of 100 Felblight, and I was able to make quite a few Mighty Upgrades for my character's crafted gear. I have now upgraded all the pieces to level 5, except for two. I'll complete them this week. Then it's on to Savage Upgrades at 60 Felblight a pop. I need 1800 all told, minus 60 for the one Savage I've done so far. 1740 needed. Let's say we get 100 per week. That's 18 weeks :) Let's hope Legion isn't early :)

I tried to make Master Plan progress across the board this week. I took Elfy through Talador and Nagrand and got those completed. I also did 700 Cooking on Shammy and Elfy, and worked a bit on Priesty's Archeology, and Beasty's Fishing too. The only Rep stuff I did was the Tanaan Dailies. I'm sure that Hand of the Awakened will be one of the factions to Exalted on all my characters. It was a good week for gold. I completed a 6K ship mission successfully, and sold quite a lot of stuff on the AH.

Talking about Shipyards, I've now got them up and running on all 10 characters. 5 have the Oil Rig now, and the other 5 are working on it. I'm also trying to perfect the ships, decomissioning any Tauren, Orc, Blood Elf and Troll crew ones, and keeping any Goblin, Pandaren, or Undead ones (trying to get one Murloc Destroyer too :)). Once I have this sorted out, I'll perfect the counters they have, and have 10 efficient fleets to bring in tons of gold.

Apexis Bonus Time!

Hi,

Yep, it's the Apexis Bonus event this week. So? You might say. Getting bonus apexis off mobs is kind of meh. But, the weekly quest 'A Time to Strike', that you complete by doing 5 Apexis bonus areas, is the easiest of all the bonus event ones to complete. Just do the daily, and then 4 more, and bingo, 1000 Oil, 1000 GRs, 5000 Apexis, and 500 Valor. I started doing this on my lowest geared characters first, to get them better geared up.

As of now, I have completed on 6 out of 10 characters, and hope to finish on the other 4 by the end of today (because I have the day off for MLK day).

That's what I've mostly been doing this week. I've also done Kazzak on 6 out of 10 characters, but haven't had as much time to play as normal, as we've had friends staying with us for a few days.

So, it's really been about gearing up, and doing Tanaan this week. Other than that, it's been AHing stuff for gold, doing garrison chores, and to be honest, not much else. Magey and Combat did get their garrisons fully fleshed out and are now contributing to the gold total. Also, a couple of notable Gold things this week were two Bligtron missions for 4K each, and a 6K card on my scribe. A very good week for gold.

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

COMPLETED. 100/100 100%

Gearing: Get each character to 690. Counting 600-690. Out of 900.
 

Lots of upgrades this week. 857/900 95.2%

Crafted Gear: Get 3 pieces of fully upgraded gear on each character. Out of 180 (given 6.2).
 

A few more upgrades this week. 142/180 78.9%

Professions: Get 2 professions on each character to 700. Counting each profession. Out of 20.

 

Nothing new this week. 17/20 85% 

Secondary Profs: Get all 4 secondary profs on all to 700. Counting each prof. Out of 40.


Nothing new this week. 13/40 32.5%

Complete Draenor: Each zone complete and Bonus Objectives complete. Out of 50.
 
 
Nothing new this week. 30/50 60%

Shipyards are Back!

Hi,

Yep, Shipyards are back big time. With the recent quality of life improvements they made to them, they are definitely worth doing now. I recently expanded from 5 Shipyards to 8 shipyards (and will eventually run 10).

Priesty doing ship missions
My first three (Priesty, Beasty, and Shammy) have all got Voljin's Headhunters rep to revered and now have the Oil Rig. The first 5 have level 3 shipyards, and the other 3 are working on getting to level 2 and level 3. I've been looking on wowhead for the best mix of ships, and considering the best mix of ships for the gold missions. But what I've decided on now is a balance of ships and equipment to keep all the mission rewards rolling in, but to concentrating on getting crews that will really help. So, I'm going with:

3 Destroyers, 3 Battleships, 2 Subs, and 2 Carriers.

And I want Pandaren, Undead, or Goblin crew. For now, if I get Troll crew, it is OK (to get ship equipment for free), but they will eventually get swapped out. This means a lot of decommissioning of ships and re-rolling hoping to get the right crews. I did spend some time on Priesty getting the Ghostly Spyglass equipment blueprint (from a rare in a cave in South Tanaan), and will work on getting Priesty's whole fleet sorted out, before working on the others.

Other that shipyards, I spent a lot of time on lots of characters in Tanaan Jungle. They all did Kazzak this week, for lots of Felblight. They also did the daily a lot, to work on the rep. I was lucky to have Ironhold Harbor as the daily quite a few times. It's my favorite. Ironhold Harbor and Iron Front are my two favorites, with Zeth'gol next, then Fel Forge, and Temple of Sha'nar being my least favorite.

Priesty was the only one who did the Saurfang quest this week. That's because it was Black Gate (Archimonde!!). I'd never done this before, but plunged right in. We wiped the first time, as there were lots not hitting the adds. Second try was better, but we still failed. We finally downed it with 2 stacks of Determination. Nice cutscene to finish off too. I'd recommend doing it for the cutscene if you haven't done it before.

I also did a lot of gearing up. Between all the 20K Apexis upgrades I was getting, I also crafted a lot of 5/6 equipment, and upgraded a little bit with Valor too.

I did work on reps a bit, working on Priesty's Arrakoa and Frostwolf rep. Priesty did the regular garrison Skettis daily, and also did the FFR one when it was up.

Magey and Combat continued to work in lockstep, upgrading their garrisons, and are nearly maxed out and will contribute to gold soon.

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

COMPLETED. 100/100 100%

Gearing: Get each character to 690. Counting 600-690. Out of 900.

You're a mean one, Kazzak!

Hi,

He's very mean when he only hands out a few paltry Felblight. Which was the story for most of my characters this week.

Dancing with Kazzak
Anyway. First off. Happy New Year to everyone. I hope yours was a good one. Mine was good. We went away to a Cabin with friends and all saw the New Year in together. Good stuff.

What that means is that I wasn't playing as much as I thought I could between Christmas and now, but no matter, I still got a lot done.

I did do Kazzak on all my Horde 100s in the guild. Got quite a bit of Felblight, and a couple of them got gear from him too. So I guess he's not too mean :) I also did the Tanaan dailies on a lot of characters, getting tons of Baleful gear, and raising a lot up to 695. Gearing up is going very well indeed. I do realize though that I made a big mistake with my choice of crafting gear. On my last 5 characters, it was always Bracers and Shoulders, with one other (weapon, ring, etc.). This was all based on what you could get from Timewalking. But now, I'm not even using Timewalking, just Tanaan and Apexis, and Kazzak can drop Bracers too. It's too late to go back, but I really wish I'd done it differently, not based on Timewalking at all.

What else. I did LFR on most of them, doing the Saurfang daily whenever I could. A few of them upgraded gear with Valor too. I also worked on Professions a bit. Beasty advanced in Fishing, doing the Garrison daily most days. Trappy also got skinning to 700, grinding in Nagrand and then finishing the last 5 points in the DMF.

While the Winter Veil Dailies were still going on, I was doing them on all my characters. I got 12 Arms of the Frozen Hero, and upgraded 6 followers each on Magey and Combat to 650. I got 21 Medallions of the Legion. Beasty used 1 to get Voljin rep to Revered, for the Oil Rig. I'll use them all over time, about 2 per character. I have 16 Elixirs of the Rapid Mind, and will wait for them to go up in value before selling them.

Trappy finally got all buildings to level 3 and is doing Elite trapping now. So, she's bringing in gold too. Things are selling well on the AH, especially Savage Blood. So, we're continuing to bring in gold at the expected rate.

One other thing I did was start taking my characters through the zones they haven't fully completed. So, Shammy finished off Nagrand, and Elfy got Spires done.

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

COMPLETED. 100/100 100%

Gearing: Get each character to 690. Counting 600-690. Out of 900.

10 leveled Horde 100s!

Hi,

Yep, I got my final 2 to 100 yesterday. Leveling is now over until Legion. I can at last focus on the other parts of the Master Plan that need attention. Magey and Combat leveled in lockstep, until they did Spires of Arak. This was because Magey got the Treasure Map from a follower mission. She leveled much faster than Combat, collecting tons of treasures. She hit 100 on the first few quests of Nagrand, getting Lantressor as a follower. Combat had to delve much deeper into Nagrand, but was only had to do about 10 quests more.

There they are
When they got to 100, they had tons and tons of Baleful gear to open up. This brought Magey to 640 and Combat to 641. I'll concentrate on gearing them up more in the week to come.

What I was doing each morning (other than missions and trapping) was the Winter Veil dailies, as I described last week. I did them on all 8 100s, and did them on Magey and Combat too, this morning. I've now amassed tons of Medallions, Elixirs of Rapid Mind, and Frozen Arms. I'll probably use the Medallions and Frozen Arms, and try to sell the Elixirs after the event is well over.

I was good about doing Kazzak systematically. I did Kazzak on my first 5 characters last week. Maybe I can squeak in a couple more before the reset tomorrow. This netted quite a bunch of Felblight, and I made some level 5 gear upgrades this week.

Other than that, the Raid weekly was Slagworks, and I did that on a few characters. Priesty also farmed wolves for Sumptuous Fur, and funneled gold to Magey and Combat to help them get their garrisons set up.

Trappybrit finally got the 1200 GRs for the level 3 War Mill, and will soon replace the Trading Post with a Barn and will start trapping.

I was able to play a bit over Christmas, and the weekend, even though we had a lot going on. I hope you all had a great Christmas, and Happy new Year for later this week. Let's see how the Master Plan is going.
