End of April update

 Not quite the end of April but figured I'd get one out now cuz yeah, I'ma forget later. Gonna start with the good stuff of course then kinda drift off into the not so good stuff.

FIRST! Yeah! I got the Rasz skin. Long have I been farming this weekly, well since season 1, and a few weeks ago a guildie gave me his drop. I always make it known that I was trying for this for a long time and at the end of our Vault of the Incarnates practice run, a guildie whispers me saying that I'd get more out of this mount then he would. I was sooooo happy I was speechless a little while after and sooo greatful. YAY!!!!!

My next mount I was given was Midnight from Karazhan. Quantum Corsair drop from Rise. Shifty doesn't care about mounts so he gave it to me, but when I opened it and he saw what it was, LOL he was like wtf! that mount is so cool. I'm sure he regretted his decision to give it to me BUT! too late!
Actually I'm pretty positive if he opened it, it would have been something else cuz he doesn't have a lot of mounts so the available options for him is a whole lot more than mine. I really should go and farm this on Heroic just for a chance for the quantum mount drop. 

This month saw the Noblegarden event. So I'm really not too sure when they added a bunch of the mog, pets and toys, but I was missing like all of them. I only had 2 of the bunny ears, no pets, and none of the transmogs. The duck holiday boss was new I'm pretty sure. It dropped a carpet mount after turning in the daily kill quest and you get it out of the basket reward. I believe I got this to drop for me a couple days shy of the end of this event. I was getting so discouraged, mainly cuz I was not running this on my alts until a few days before that. So I was kicking myself for not taking advantage of that part. I was seeing this drop for everyone so I thought it was a sure bet, I'd just get it on my main. It actually dropped for Babyskully. Thank goodness! cuz I was gonna be super sad panda. At the end of the event, I got all the items! So happy panda I was.

This month's Trading post was not great in my opinion. I mean the Shark hat YES! I needed that as soon as I saw it. It's hilarious, I love it! But the rest was super meh. I bought 3 things only. The shark hat, turtle mount, and the purple sarong. I'm not a huge fan of the shoulder wraps. I don't know why. I think the fact that it does not sit flush on my undead shoulders has a lot to do with it. I wanna like it, but I just don't so I don't waste my tender on these garbage shoulders. j/k it's not garbage, its just junk. ;-P  

I already had the pirate ship from before, and I'm not a huge fan of the spring and pirate outfits. At the end of my purchases I've managed to hold onto 250 tender that I'll take to next month.

I did a craft and I was Bro the other day! made me laugh. I love these.

Alright so along with this being a fun April full of new things I got, achievements completed, and Season 4 coming out It also kinda ended with a slight reality check for me. When someone points out that I might be doing things because I like the attention really slapped me in the face. Not in a bad way really, it was just an eye opener. Like, I never play this game for attention let's just get that out there right now. I'm nice to everyone and might use too much /hug /love emotes.  It made me think, because although I might not be doing it intentionally, am I doing it for the attention subconsciously? if there's some part of me that is, I fuckin hate it and I'm gonna try to put a stop to that real quick. In the past, putting myself in my antisocial hole is really easy, I have no issues doing it. I cut everything off until I feel better. Because I play with other people now, do I really have that in me to do that again? I don't think I can completely cut off being social, but I can at least dial it back. Lay low and mind my own business. It just sparked my depression again and made me realize I need to focus on me and if that means cutting back on WoW for a bit, then I will. At least the social aspect of it. Just to prove to myself that I play this game for me and not because I crave the attention. 

YAY!!!!! Taivan!

Taivan!!!! you are mine now!!!! YAY!!!!!!

My Dragonflight grind for him is now done. I had huge help with some of these, and I know I would have gotten it done on my own, but the help made it so much faster. Truth and Potato keeping an eye on the Elemental Storms for me when I wasn't ingame was huge. I was sitting on the very last Thaldraszus Firestorm for about 2 days, waiting patiently(kinda) as I seen the same storms cycle over and over with no Fire in sight. And FINALLY last week Wednesday the right storm blew in. And I booked it there so fast, well I did run out of Dragon juice, but Invincible carried me the rest of the way up to Tyr Hold. Joined a farming group and started my slaughter. 

I was sooo happy and excited to ride on my new puppy. Like I mentioned in the previous post, I do know he is smaller then intended, so I wasn't surprised to see him the same size as any other normal mount.
BUT! It's only temporary, and I'm ok with that. Just means I have to make sure I take care of him and feed him so he can grow big and strong. Right now, he's just a puppy. I have to keep taking him out and feeding him all my enemies that I kill.

Well now, what shall I work on next?
I came across this one unintentionally. I was looking for cool mounts and found Zovaal's Soul Eater. Where the F does this come from?!?!?! by the looks of it, it must be from Shadowlands.
Ahhhh Fuck My Life! another meta achievement?!??!
Whyyyyyyy!!!!!

You know what, I really wouldn't mind it if I had more progress on this. But I have so much more to do. /cry. I will not be getting this one as fast as I did Taivan. I'm gonna shoot for completion before the next Expansion lol. I did notice I have a hard time trying to get multiple achievements at the same time. I pick one, do it and then move onto the next. Completely not productive in my progress, but oh wells. That's how I roll. 

I've been trying to work on Torghast stuff right now, I just finished the Flawless 16 achieve and unlocking all the tree things from the little box. I'm still not done in there tho.
However! with the season 4 just coming out today this might be put off for a lot longer then I planned. But on the other hand, I've been really just wanting to play by myself lately. Not feeling like playing with people. In another of my moods again I guess but oh wells. I'm sure my happy face will be put on again and I'll be fine.

Alright, now to end this, here are two other mounts I got along with Taivan. A pink Salamanther! so cute! his head looks an axolotl and being pink he more so looks like one then the other colors, I've always wanted one in RL! Now I have one ingame YAY!!
And the other is a Bruffalon, I got from doing all the Elemental Storms. He is the size Taivan should be. He's huge! his /mountspecial is super cute. He jumps up a couple times and bucks like he's super happy. I'll just pretend he's happy because he now belongs to MEEEEEEE!!!!!

Alrightee I'm done...
ok... ok bye!

Taivan... Soon my Good Boy, you will be mine!

I am Sooooooooooo close to getting Taivan!
Literally one more achievement. Sadly, this last achievement I need is all RNG. 
The Elemental Storms that spawn do not have a pattern from what I've read, and seen actually. There are 4 storms, and 4 zones to spawn in. They spawn every 3 hours. On occasion they can spawn in 2 places. I've seen a storm spawn back-to-back in the same damn zone. weaksawce! 1/16 chance for it to pop in the last zone I need.

The very first person to tell me about this was Stank. He sent me an ingame link to the achieve but I thought it was so far out of reach for me I never gave it a thought to even push for this. Next person to tell me about it was Truth. He sent me a video on it in Discord, same thing I never watched it, still haven't if I'm being honest, sorry Truth <3 Anyways, just sayin, if I pushed back then I'm sure I would have seen a Firestorm in Thaldraszus from the first mention of the achievement to me until now. For shame!
I don't know why it took someone helping me with collecting my mounts and pets and showing me Simplearmory.com to light that fire under my ass. 

Prolly because it shows you the ones you have and has empty spaces for the ones you don't have and I need to fill all the slots. 

Potato takes the time to look stuff up for me and tells me "let's go do this". Now mind you I'm usually a solo person when it comes to collecting things and getting my achievements. I don't like the feeling like they're taking the time out of doing stuff for themselves to come and help me. Or when Kreagr buys pets for me with Pet charms. Even if he can buy them with the charms and then sell them for a crap ton on the AH, he chooses to give them to me. I'm very greedy and I yes I want it all, BUT I also am someone who feels really bad about people doing things like this for me.  I never ask for them to, and I've told them not to but they still do and I am very grateful. Kreags has told me he doesn't care about the charms or gold he can get from selling the pets, and he knows I'll get more out of the pets then he will. They know I am a WoW psycho and they want to contribute to my addiction... They are huge enablers, lol. In a good way! <3 And Potato does the same. He has given me so many pets and some are not even duplicates for him. 
Ultimately, I feel guilty a lot of the time because like I said I am someone who plays solo and usually has my time booked with doing dailies or world quests. This Taivan push has got me occupied so much that I haven't been doing my gold, flying and pet battling WQs that I normally do. When people ask to run stuff I know I can say no, but usually I go out of obligation. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy playing with others, but just sayin', it's putting a wedge in my routine antisocial Skully mode of play.
Anywhos...
Here is a picture of the first and ONLY Taivan I've seen in the world. 
I talked to this person and he said the forbidden isle and the storms are the ones that took him/her the longest. And they were so nice, they wished me luck.

You will soon be mine Taivan. The Good boy Gentle Giant.

News Update: The size of Taivan has been temporarily nurfed because of bugs. People that have this are upset as the whole appeal was that he was a huge mount and now he just seems like just another normal bakar. Blizz said it's temporary, but we shall see. 

Hearthstone event

I am happy to say I have completed collecting all the Hearthstone Event items and Achievements.
I didn't know there were a lot of issues with this event until a day into it. I knew the spawn wasn't at a set time, or something like it was supposed to be but never worked out that way. So a little after the top of the hour I noticed was the spawn time when I did them. Mind you, I didn't read anything on the event prior, I just knew there was the horse mount when you logged into Hearthstone. So to my delighted surprise, there were other stuff to get. I mean I figured it would be as just like the Diablo event where there's drops from the portal spawning bosses. YES! more shit to add to my collection! happy days!

The first thing I got was the Hearthstone hearth toy which has a super cool animation. you drop the board and it opens up and cards start swirling around you while it channels. nice!

Along with that on the same drop I got the disc mount. Fuck you Tazavesh! I got a disc mount now!!!! just kidding I still want that one. The only reason why I don't farm that is cuz I think you still have to complete the Market first, and it's just too long and annoying. 

I got all the cards for the card collecting achievement yay! It was so nice cuz I sat at a table with a person I didn't know and we started to chat. They got all their cards and I needed a few. They were throwing matches to help me get the win and get all my cards. So nice! I wish I remembered their name.

With the little battle pet Sarge, it took me a while to get. Healsawce got the pet and gave it to me... It's sooo friggen cute! I named it Sawce. And funny enough I ended up getting like 5 of them after. Sadly I could not learn more than one, so I had to toss the rest :-(

Yes because I started this entry the day after the Hearthstone event, I don't friggen remember what all I wanted to write about it, like usual. So I'm super sure I missed a bunch of stuff. 
Till next time. Ok... ok bye!

Mid March update

Well poops!
I was gonna post this before Feb was done... ugh lol not a shocker though.
Anyways, I have screenshots attached already so I'll just write what I remember, and I might be all over the place cuz Im'a just type as things come to me. 
Pic to the right is of Babyskully's new mog I'll keep her in now. Twilight Witch mog with traders post staff and Maldraxxus covenant bone wings. I really love it, but I don't wanna change Deadskully's mog. If this was pink and black, I would love to put my main in it but it's purple so bleh.  

The Big Dig weekly gave me a pet Hap'he. cute! I think I got it as a drop from killing the event boss.
I've been doing these religiously due to the transmog that the vendors sell. I need it all! and I still have a bunch more to get >_< 
We did a Dawn of the Infinite Hard Mode No Death run for the achievement. Sadly, we didn't do it when it was actually hard so no Title, but at least we got a transmog outfit and the achievement. 

My boys have been running DotI with me and a couple of them have still been giving me their Quantum Courser mount things. I love them! Recently I got Deathcharger's reigns from Stratholm, The Crawg from Underrot, Mummified bone raptor from King's Rest. I think I talked about the other ones I've gotten so I'll leave them out.

I was really grinding for my 1200 pet achievement. To the point of going on the Auction house buying ones I didn't have and using my pet charms to buy them from vendors. Alas! I got my achievement!
WTF!?!?!?
Now I need to get 1400!?!?!!? are you fricken kidding me!???!
Heck NO! I'm not gonna push for this one for a looong time. I'll still going round collecting but not pushing to complete this.

Ok sooooo, This month's Traders post sucks!!!!
I only say it sucks because the amount of tender I have does not cover half the things I want. I was only able to buy 3 friggen things and now I'm broke. The Peacock mount was a given, it's very pretty, the teal back mog and the green parasol toy. So disappointed. We really do need a new way to get more tender, I might even use RL money to buy more tender from the Blizz store if they ever bring back that option, I think they did it only one month. Who am I kidding, of course I would. TAKE MY MONEY!!!!
This next one made me sad. I got a manuscript drop and I got so excited! Bronze and pink armor?!?!?! Holy cripes this is great!

I need to see this! I went to the Dragon changing room thing and was the most disappointed I have ever been in a mog (exaggerating a little). This is NOT PINK!!!! What the hell is this crap color!!?? 
I was so sad. I mean it is pink in all fairness, and I have no idea why I expected it to be a way brighter pink. UGH! such a letdown. Whatever, I'll stop complaining about something I would not even have moged anyways for that dragon with all the other full transform potions that model has. 
Alright and finally...
I joined an all-girl guild on my alt and raided with them a couple times. They are really nice and super supportive of everyone. I've never played with a bunch of ladies in game before and it was a completely different change of pace for me. I will be honest the conversations and chattiness, I'm not used to. The content of convos were different than what I'm used to. The pace at which they do/run things was different. When I say supportive, I really mean that. They take the time to teach the ones that want to learn that would otherwise be too timid and shy to dive into content with a guild full of, dare I say, guys that would find them to be a hinderance to their own progression. I have a good guild that welcomes people that want to learn and will help in a heartbeat, but at the same time, my guild has no patience for people that do not ask questions and do not ask for help and have no willingness to actually learn. It's hard, but I see it happen. I also think that some people think I do not like to play with other girls.... That is the farthest from the truth. I would love to find a chick friend that plays this game like me. Even if she doesn't raid or do dungeons, I just want a chick friend, I guess. If she plays as much as I do I would LOOOOOOVE that! She would be my new best friend. Unfortunately, every chick in the guild has a life, family, kids and go MIA for months at a time... I'm that sad, loser asshole here with no life and always playing WoW.
BUT! I'm ok with that. I just get annoyed when my boys point out that I don't like playing with other girls, 100% FALSE! 

I'm sure that is not all I've been up to in game, till next month...

ok... ok bye!

3K io... LETS GOOOOOO!!!!!

 

This just happened!

YAY!!!! super jazzed, yeah yeah I know, I said I wasn't gonna push after the 2800. But I love my boys so much they were all trying to get me to 3K, so really all the credit goes to them. I don't feel like it was a full on carry cuz I held my own for most of it. At least I think I did. Last week I should have pushed my low tyrannical keys cuz I could have gotten alot of io from those ones below 20. Next week's affixes are doodoo so I think no one is gonna really push next week, well so they say, but I have a feeling they'll still run them.
Anyways, just wanted to share my feat I thought I was never reach.  And I know for alot of people these 22-24s aren't even hard, but for someone who isn't very good at this game, I think this was a huge accomplishment and I'm proud of myself.

Truth, Shifty, Sawce, Stank, Lumi, Chris all helped me get this.

Love (heartbreak) update

Welp...
Another sad Love is in the Air event has passed and another thing to add to my heartbreak list.
First lets start with the positive report. Like the Lunar fest, I didn't have to run as much different toons as I thought I needed to to get all the tokens for the toys/pets/and mogs I still needed, I think I got them all in like 5 days running only 3 toons regularly with the dailies. So THAT part wasn't bad. 

I got an awesome toy, the Date Simulation Modifier, that changes the sky to four different ways. I love this so much! its sooo cool. I went to the places that I knew the sky does not change and set it down. The pic to the left is of Oribos. Sky never changes... but sure as shit does with this toy!!! Waaaay cool! I'm in the process of writing a story with this toy. If I actually finish it today or tomorrow, I'll put a link in here.

Two new achievements were added and I failed to get one of them. Feralas daily that you have to talk to people and give them gifts, I was not sure how to do them in the beginning and I should have read on it first. I really didn't think it was gonna be an RNG thing. Not only are the gifts you get random, but the Daily cycle for the quest are as well. and I think I missed one as I didn't check one day. I still needed to give 2 gifts to people at the end of the event. /sadness. Oh! and the achievement is not account bound so I HAD to do them all with my main.  Right is a pic of the Heartseeker Mana Ray you buy with 270 tokens. so yay I got that!

Bought two things in the Blizz store this month. The Twilight Pack.
Came with a Twilight Witch mog and the Twilight prowler. Both are the same models as the ones from the traders post this month, just purple versions. Also there was a murlock modifier toy. Makes you turn into a murlock... It was so funny! It sets out a monument and I believe others can click it as well. I might have to drop that in raids. 
Anywhos, for the Twilight pack, I originally saw it and thought nah I don't want it, but I bought one and sent it to a friend as a birthday gift and then thought fuck it! I need this too! I LOVE the color pink over purple, but I liked this mog better as it does have black in it. and I bought the matching staff in the traders post too so one of my toons will eventually be rockin this mog.... Just not my main. 

Alright NOW for the heartache...
No Love Armor Proto-Drake manuscript dropped for me.
18 toons
248 chances
= nothing
I saw 4 guildies get it and one of them got it twice (main and alt). The last day, I could have ran them all by 10am (the end of the event) but I really didn't feel like it. I felt so defeated by the end of this. Like always I will still try next year and hope for a drop, but until then I will stay salty as heck. Yeah yeah, I know I won't use it, but I'm a collector! I want EVERYTHING!
But really I hope this was not the case, but I was reading on Wowhead that people were saying that if you got the rocket already, it was bugged that the skin would not drop for you. I was trying to read if people had the rocket and still got the skin, but I got tired of scrolling. I really don't think this was an actual bug rather just people making up reasons for their shitty luck. Either way, I did not get it. Yet another person that religiously plays this game everyday, tries so hard and gets rewarded with disappointment and nothing to show for it. Such as life. Too bad, so sad.
Alright I'm done... I'm gonna go wipe away my tears. 
OK... ok bye!

___________________________________________________
Edit:
Finished my story. Enjoy!
Love Event Adventures

Feb randomness

Frick yes! Look at that carry IO I got there eh!
I'm kidding! I do my grey parse part in those keys. I've made the decision, I will not push to 3k. Ask me in a month tho ha! I think I'll only go as far as to get all 20 keys for Fortified and Tyrannical... thats good enough for me. I have a couple 18s and 19s left. Oh! and last night I did do my first 24 key!! Alright moving on...

This week saw my first full M+ slots filled with mythic gear options. part of me was hoping I wasn't gonna get anything that I needed because I do still need gem slots for my gear. But I did have myth pants in the vault so I grabbed those. Legs are not really part of my 4 piece, but I have seen some good Demo locks rockin tier legs so that made my decision for me. If they don't have the 5 piece, then they don't use gloves. I am really collecting gear to see what works for me.

Ohhh this made me so happy today!!!!! 
Garrosh finally gave it up!!!! I'm too lazy to log in and see how much kills this took me. I'ma guess less then 30. And I'm sure that even tho I'm taking this place off the list, I'll replace it with another mount I want from another old raid. Maybe Hellfire Citadel or Nighthold. Oh scratch that, I believe I've talked about the no skip for those yet, and I still have not gone to find out how to do those skips.

Next on my list of things to talk about... People posting things on the AH for less then what you can vendor them for. I feel like I've talked about this before, but I can't be sure. why? do they not see how much you can sell them for?, do they just want to help out others get the items just short of giving it to them? One will never know I guess.

I'm sure this next one is an issue with other people and not just me.
Crafting orders...
Why the fuck would I, or anyone for that matter, craft something that would cost us a shit ton of gold, for you to only put a 10g tip? are they hoping that people don't notice the crap tip, or are they just hoping for that nice person that will do it to help out a cheap bastard? When I was looking for my first craft for knowledge points, I wanna say I have done this. I'm more keen to help someone that tips crap but they have all the mats. as long as I have crafting charges, I'd usually do it. I love when I resource proc some expensive mats... dracothyst from crests, heck yeah! but yeah so I usually put the cheapos on my ignore list. Oh and speaking of ignore lists, I really need for Blizz to up the amount of people you put on the list. I'm always maxing out the list and then I have to delete and re-ignore everyone all over again. AND they should make the list account wide. I hate loggin into an alt and seeing the same fools that spam trade for their sell carries popping up on trade chat. 

This was funny. I've mentioned before about the people that assume everyone that plays this game is a dude... I got a "broski" the other day! I crafted something for this person and then answered a question he had. I never correct them, I just giggle to myself. I don't get upset like I've seen other chicks do. That annoys me that they get annoyed by it. Bitch just play your game and hush your mouth. Nobody cares that you don't have a penis. Oh boy I'd get so much shit from feminists eh? oh well!

And my last thing to talk about...
I have the best guildies! Well the ones that don't give a shit about mount collecting and just give me stuff! Lumi gave the Reigns of the Quantum Courser that dropped from Rise.  I opened it and I got the Mummified Raptor Skull that drops from BfA King's Rest! Holy shiiiit!!!!!
and Shifty had given me his before and that one gave the Swift Zulian Panther from Zul Gurub. I was super excited for that one cuz I've been farming for that one and Armored Razzashi Raptor from there. So I just go in there every so often for the raptor.

Alright I think thats about it for this one. I'm tired, and need go to sleep...
ok... ok bye!

February Holiday Events

Alrightee!
It's that time again, Love is in the air and the grind is back... /sigh
ok ok, I know it's a choice for me to do these till my fingers bleed and my heart breaks but it's what I enjoy so much... I'm always hopeful that I will get what I work so hard for. I'm trying to keep the Brewfest dragon skin grind out of my head right now and not get discouraged. I don't think I put all my effort into that one from the start though sooooo I'ma go with that being the reason I failed to get it. I believe I got all the toys tho sooo that Holiday event wasn't a total bust.

Anywhos! Lets get on with this.
The month of Feb has so much things for me to do. First, the trading post has a crap ton of things that I want and I'm a little peeved that I can't get all the stuff that I want. If Blizz sold traders tender again in the website, I'm pretty sure I'd go and spend RL money on it just to buy all my trading post shit.

Next, Lunarfest runs from Feb 3rd till the 17th. I didn't really do these last year as there was no more achieves to get and I didn't care to check on the toys and mogs. When I went there this year I saw soooo much mogs and some toys and I needs them all, along with a hearthstone toy. like I said, I'm not sure if they added it last year as I didn't check, at least I don't think I checked.  But yeah, I saw ALOT and I knew I was gonna have to get them on more than my main but I didn't calculate how much toons I'd have to go around collecting the Lunar coins with. Turns out no alot. As of writing I gotten all but 3 things! one toon can get like 4 or 5 things if I get all the coins in Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms/ Wrath and some dungeons. Well shit, this will go by fast. By the end of today I can get them all and not have to do anymore Lunarfest stuff, thank goodness!!!!

On to Love is in the Air!

This one runs from Feb 5th to the 19th.

Sooooooo, I completely forgot about the Dragon skin mog for this event! I was prepared to NOT have to run the holiday boss for a mount and get discouraged every time because last year I got my Pink Love Rocket!!!! Just for nostalgia reasons, at the end of this entry, I'll put several entries I wrote about this Holiday event from previous years.
But anyways, so this year, yes I have to run the holiday boss for the mog skin, I also have to consistently do the quests and dailies on several toons JUST to get the new mogs, toys, AND mount. Yes another mount, but this one like the Love bird, you buy with the tokens. 

Thank goodness. I rather grind for the tokens then have another thing to be disappointed in not having drop for me. Its ugly, but its pink, and of course, I still need it. I'm sure I'll ride it once, get my screenie and never ride it again. I like how they advertise for it by the vendor by having one tied to a post with a leash. There's a few love boats for sale too. I have seen one person in the wild riding on. I'm not sure if it's like the raft and the Tuskarr dinghy and you can fish on it, but I'm so ready to find out for myself. And also there's a bunch of rose mogs to get. those are cheap so I think I'll just have my alts that I'm not taking to do the quests daily to go and buy them. I WILL get everything this year... oh I will.

So the first couple days of this event I kinda messed up. I was dumb and I took most of my 50+ toons in the Holiday Boss. Weeeeeelllllll, for the ones that are not 60 yet, I wasted my time. I just read yesterday that the mog only drops for toons level 60+... oh for fuck sake! I mean 8 toons isn't too bad, It would have been more if I didn't read it. Makes sense since 60 is when you go to the Dragon Isle so I wasn't cranky or anything. Yes I am still tracking my runs and as of today (3 days into the event) I have ran this 51 times (not counting the 8 low toons) on 17 toons. I know the drop chance is better on the first run of the day, but I still try. And for my love tokens, I will need 1145 to get everything that I want. If I get them all early I will most likely just farm to get coins to buy the Love bird, hold it and sell it later in the year. I haven't done that in a while, but a guildie reminded me of it yesterday. 

Alright and FINALLY! This week is also Darkmoon Faire and yet another month is going by that I have not went down to fish up some fish heads. Sad times, well at least I've been not smelling all fishy lately. HA!

End mog for February's traders post.

Cave fishing for the Riding turtle

I would not have known this Turtle mount was achievable if someone didn't spam in trade about it. The mount is the Riding Turtle, a TCG mount, but blizz put it in the game as something that you can fish up in your Draenor Garrison if you have the rank 3 Fishing hut. 
The person making the group had a rank 3 fishing hut so anyone can get a chance at fishing it up. Mine is rank 3 however fishing in a group is greatly beneficial as the things we fish up and throw back to spawn a cavedweller that we kill and loot for the mount chance... sooo more people, more chances. 

So much dead cavedwellers in the water!
The group was really good and very supportive of others trying to get this mount. Some thought that this was the best place to catch another mount the Sea turtle in here. From what I read you do have a chance to get it here, but I don't think this was the best option to fish it up here.
I caught mine back in Wrath in Moa'ki Harbor in Dragonblight. It didn't take me long from what I remember. The person making the group was after this one as they already caught the Riding Turtle.

I caught my Riding turtle!!!! Sweet!!!!
However this was NOT the end of my time here fishing. I wanted to help others BUT I did have an ulterior motive... I still needed Nat coins to buy a mount from Nat. I really didn't think I would get this one cuz I've been trying to fish for coins since WoD and I've only got 20... the mount costs 100. But while I was fishing for the mount, I gathered 40 coins... I needed 40 more!!! so after I got the mount, I was willing to stay... to help others and to help myself of course! The group leader was done for the night but said he would post for another group the next day. I said I'd watch out for the group and help them (and myself) tomorrow.

Next day came and I looked for the group, joined and continued my fishing. Some others from the night before joined again as well, and I saw some of them get their mounts... YAY!!! I fished for my coins and finally collected my 100. Went to Nat and bought my Crimson water strider mount. Im so happy!!!! I'm officially done fishing in WoD! 
But still, as I do, stay and help others.  
Also may I note another dumb thing that made me smile...
I loved that the group called me "Skully" even tho they didn't know me. <3

Weekly stuff I do

Alright I think I've posted a checklist tracker before so I won't post the new one I use but I'll just explain what consumes most of my wow time. Actually no, scratch that, I guess I'll post it cuz I just looked back at the other one and it was totally different then what I keep track of now. That one was mainly around running all my alts through stuff, this one is all what my main toon does.
Maybe as I'm writing this, I'll think of more stuff I wanna add to my long list of things I already do on a weekly run/grind basis. I'll try to get some screenies in here as well to make it less boring then these already are ;-P
Alrightee lets get into this shit!
First is the Old raids I run. Blackrock Foundry and Siege of Orgrimmar needs to be ran on Mythic for the mount drop and thank goodness for the skips cuz until I found these out, I stopped running them a looong time ago. I was told Nighthold and Hellfire Citadel also have skips but I have yet to look those up so after I do, I might add them. Throne of Thunder and all difficulties for the 2 mounts I don't always do them. And Battle of Dazar'alor I go in there only to kill Opulence on LFR for my black crown mog. BUT! I know the G.M.O.D. mount can drop from all the difficulties, but I don't go that far. 
Next on that list is current Amirdrassil raid. My guild still runs it on Normal to have fun with guildies that wanna hang out, Heroic to help gear guildies and alts, and Next week dippin our toes into Mythic hopefully to down a couple bosses, I'ma have to add Mythic on the list. And Sometimes if I'm bored, I'll just go into LFR to practice roto or something. AAAAAAND! yes I still do the last wing of VotI LFR for my Rasz kill for the skin. My last group just went in there, no mechanics on either boss and still zerged the shit out of it with no wipes. I loved it! 

Moving down to my other weeklys. Hirukon in Zereth Mortis I obviously don't need anymore but I still go and get the lure in Maldraxxus and go back to ZM to fish up the Jelly for other people. Speaking as an achievement hunter this is a rare that you need to kill for an achievement and I like helping people that still need this. When I zone in I do announce in general that I'm fishing him up in a couple mins so anyone across the map has time to fly down. I love seeing people get the achievement after the kill... makes me feel like im doing a nice thing for others, and they have a small chance to get the mount themselves :-) Dreamsurge and Timerift I really don't do anymore. I've gotten all the cloth mogs and pets, but I still leave them on here cuz there is still some other gear mogs I need and for the BoA gear tokens for my alts. Researchers Under Fire I should just take this off cuz its been a hot minute since I've done one. Soup I do for the Flavor Pocket drop chance, they still sell for a lot. Superbloom for the weekly and the drake manuscripts that drop from the bags. 

The Dig because obviously its the latest community event to be added and I need a shit ton more fraggies to buy my stuff. Still need the mount from Oondasta on the Isle of Giants in Pandaland, and the two Mechagon rares Archanid Harvester and Rustfeather I camp and kill regularly. Recently changed my garrison building to the Inn and found out I can get a shit ton of followers by talking to the chick in there on the weekly. wtf! why did it take me this long to figure this out!

next sections is the easy daily dungeons for mounts. ZulGurub I got the panther but I still need the raptor and Vortex Pinnacle I need the drake. It pained me the couple times I saw people get the drake during keys... blah!

You know what, this is taking longer then I wanted so I'll try to speed it up. 
Ruby feast in Val I do for an achieve, I just need one more set of food to eat. Arathi basin I need one more mount. Dunegorger in Voldun for mount, Rezira in Argus for achieve and Skreeg kill for mount. Karokta for mount and the moth rare for a pet. BfA assult I still do for the Honorbound badges, I need pet and mogs left to buy, I got all the heirloom gear.
And FINALLY! World quests.

Most refresh halfway through the week I believe so I break this tracker in 2. My WQs for gold I must do. Only the high gold ones like over 600 gold. The Flying WQs because the purses can drop drake manuscripts and the diggin WQs because I'm still in need of fragments to buy my mount and mogs!
I didn't think of new ones I wanna run while writing this so that's a good thing cuz my list is long enough. I know other people who track their shit so I don't feel like too much of a loser that I do this. There's just so much to do and you know, sometimes I just dont wanna waste my time and go all the way down to some place to see if I did them. Or completely forget that I did them and end up doing them all over again for nothing. Well it really isn't for nothing... its WoW and it's all still fun to me. 

Ok im done... ok bye!
