Day 1208 - Mists of Pandarian Day 429

Shaping up to be a very frustrating day of LFR.  I tried Downfall twice on two different toons.  Both time got stucked at Garrosh.  Fortunately for me, one of them doesn't really that boss.  Just for giggle and grin, I took my rogue through normal Obsidium Sanctum 10 man normal.  The boss is seriously easier than the yagol elites on Timeless Isle.  Was working on Ruby Sanctum's last mini-boss before the LFR for Gate of Retribution pop.  Well, still haven't gotten to the final boss of that LFR yet.

Day 1207 - Mists of Pandarian Day 428

The Thanksgiving dinner at Universal Hilton is interesting.  Picture of the food below:

The picture didn't turn out as well as I would've hope.  I also really didn't finish that fudge cake at desert...

I had one run with the mage on Downfall.  The tanks's quality eroded as the week goes by, and today's tand was seriously on the no-countdown pull.  The boss is more than willing to wipe the raid, so why shouldn'twe oblige?

Day 1206 - Mists of Pandarian Day 427

Thanksgiving 2013.  Well, I didn't go to sleep until 1AM this morning thanks to some rather insistent clients in Hong Kong that think my group is responsible for their issue.  After that, I still awake at 5:30AM.  Not my usual time of waking up, but still, not good for me.

I took my hunter through another LFR, and came up empty handed.  The next toon I quque is my rogue.  I have to run two seperate LFR runs to get Downfall through.  I got a leg token piece that I don't need.  Now it's my mage's turn.

Day 1205 - Mists of Pandarian Day 426

For a change of strategy, I decided to ramp up one toon to Valor Point cap, so the rest of my character can reap the reward.  So I ran my warlock through the last 3 instances where there might be upgraded gear for me.  The only thing I did managed to get that is an upgrade is an offhand that my mage has, but this is a better fit for this toon.  I also ran my hunter through both weekly celestial as well as 2 LFR run.  The celestials did reward my patience with a normal iLevel tier leg piece, the first boss of Downfall gave me a new shoulder piece.  While the second boss of Downfall gave me a better bow for my spec.

Day 1204 - Mists of Pandarian Day 425

New raid week, also a shorten work week.  I managed take my monk through LFR.  I did get an upgraded trinket that works in my tanking set, but still no more tier set.

Day 1203 - Mists of Pandarian Day 424

In my LFR last night, my Boomkin druid finally got an upgraded trinket.  It's the trinket that all of my characters want to get from the final boss.  Now I have to get my 2 tank toon through LFR for this week.

As I run around in Timeless Isle, whenever some group formed up for the Weekly Celestials, I switch to toons that could still get loots from those bosses.  Today, my rogue actually got an upgraded leg piece (she previously have the LFR version).  The loot god is having some fun at my expense as the bonus roll also give me the exact same leg piece.

Send a couple of more toon through LFR again.  Warcraft open up their pet/mount store again, so I cannot resist getting the new Fey Dragon mount and the new beer pup.  Hey, some of that money goes to Make A Wish.

Day 1196 - Mists of Pandarian Day 417

Finally got enough Celestial Cloth to give my shadow priest the upgraded belt she needed.  She went from my poorest geared character to one of the most completely gear in this tier.  Meanwhile, I'm still trying to get my hunter her second tier piece.  Still not happening yet.

Finally got the second Tier 16 piece for my monk tank.  This breaks the 4 piece Tier 15 bonus, which is a bit hard to let go, but Tier 16 bonus is good on its own.  I just have to get used to not getting free Purifying Brew.

While looking through auction house, I noticed that the battle pet Kovok was up for sale for 18k gold.  It's simply too good of a deal for me to pass up.  So I gathered my money to a single character and buy the pet.  I've spend quality times on Dread Waste with that Kunchong, it's so nice to have him around me for all time.

Went to the orthopedic specialist today to get that toe nail looked at.  Much to my relief, it's only a subdermal bruise that the doctor lanced with a scapel and bandaged.  This means that my normally scheduled tasks that I was afraid I won't get to actually can be done.  Of course, I wasn't dressed correctly for the occasion, but  better to get to the cemetary than not going there.

I'm still getting nothing interesting from LFR, going mainly for Downfall segment, as it has most bang for the bucks for my limited time.

Day 1192 - Mists of Pandarian Day 413

Due to the time limitation, I only managed to get 1-2 toons through LFR per day.  However, due to my main character having a bit of racial bonus on reputation grind, I still have her do her daily quest on Timeless Isle to get to the exalted status.  It will be a very long grind.

Day 1191 - Mists of Pandarian Day 412

Unlike last week, where I was on vacation, my play time this week is quit limited.  It also didn't help that I'm getting my toe nail looked at today.  It has finally become uncomfortable enough to require getting a professional opinion on it.  Unfortunately for me, the doctor took one look at it and referred me to a specialist, as she thought the toe nail probably need to be removed.  Woe is me.

New raid week.  On these weekly reset, the first thing I usually tried to do is to get as many of the weekly Celestial kill down for the week early.  I managed to get 4 in today.  Nothing dropped.

Day 1189 - Mists of Pandarian Day 410

Last day of the raid week.  Since all of my characters are full up on the weekly allotment of valor point, I opted to spend time on my paladin main, joining a reputation farming group.  I managed to get about 2 thousand reputation point before going into Gate of Retribution LFR.  Nothing drop, of course.

The last day of my vacation.  It seems that I tends to take my vacation right after my on-call, which makes the weekend prior just as stressful.  Well, my next vacation is also right after my on-call.  Unfortunately, I still have a way to go to burn off enough accrued time.

Later on today, I'll go and get my monk to tank Downfall.  Lets hope it goes well.

Took my Paladin through LFR once more.  After 2 hours, I finally got through the final boss, and got the universal tier piece which I trade in a Shoulder piece.  The bonus is nice, and I'll probably ran her through a couple of more LFR, to make up for lost time.

Day 1186 - Mists of Pandarian Day 407

Unlike yesterday, I only have time to run 3 toons through LFR, my Druid, Hunter and Paladin.  The Druid got the same off hand that Shadow Priest got.  Since she already got a spirit hammer from the final boss, this goes fine.  Hunter didn't get anything useful, but did use the Burden of Eternity to make a cloak.

Finally got my Paladin through the final LFR.  I got through the first 2 boss fine, but the final boss did give me fit.  After the 4th wipe, I finally have to stop for the night and go to sleep.  Still, I think I got the mechanics down.

Day 1185 - Mists of Pandarian Day 406

I didn't go anywhere today, so I have time to do LFR on many of my toons.  Took Death Knight, Mage, Warlock, Shadow Priest and Rogue through LFR.  The mage did 2 LFR.  The Death Knight  got a tier 16 chest piece, completing the 4 piece bonus.  Mage got a non-Tier piece that isn't an upgrade.  The Warlock got 3 piece of gears she already got.  The Shadow Priest got a nice off hand.  I also took time to go get the matching belt and shoes for her.  She also got the staff that she doesn't need, but nice to have.   The Rogue also got gear she already own.  Well, that's loot chance.

More rep grinding on Timeless Isle.  Today is Shadow Priest, Balance Druid and Survival Hunter's turn. Though she's done with collecting Tier piece, the Shadow Priest still have gears that needs upgrade.  She got a LFR belt for her trouble.  The hunter got a weird trinket, and the druid got mainhand that doesn't provide upgrade until she gets the offhand.  Not a bad day, but not great.

Day 1183 - Mists of Pandarian Day 404

Surprisingly enough the weekly patch and reboot of Warcraft went faster than I anticipated, giving me more time to play.  I now spend time finishing up Timeless Isle daily on my Paladin and the toons that needs the reputation points to get the trinket to get me to Timeless Isle.  And then I go on my toons that's queueing up for the LFR.  Today, I managed to get Mage and Warlock through the system.  Didn't get a thing, but I did swap out the boots for Warlock to something a bit more appropriate using the Burden of Eternity.

Took 3 of my casters through Downfall, the final wing of the Siege LFR.  The Warlock only got to the final boss, and came away empty handed.  My Shadow Priest also only got the third boss, albeit, she did get an universal set piece token, which I exchange for a glove.  She now has her 4 piece bonus, not quit as game breaking as the mage's, but good none the less.  Finally my Balance Druid got her chance, and she actually got all of the boss for a change.  The group was less than perfect, and lots and lots of wipe ensued.  I also got an universal set piece token, for which I change it to a shoulder piece for the 4 piece bonus.  It's quit nice.

Tomorrow morning at 8AM, I'll start my vacation.  Can't wait.

Finally decided to go into the last leg of the LFR.  The first toon to go in is my mage.  When I did it, I was a wee bit drowsy, and almost fall asleep a couple of time.  The last time I queue, my warlock didn't get a good look at anything.  This time though, my mage took 1 wipe on the first boss, and actually one shotted the other 2 bosses.  I managed to get a ring off the second boss and the 4th piece of Tier 16 out of the final boss (he drops universal tier token).  Afterward, I was a wee bit short on Valor Point for upgrade, so I ran a couple of scenario and dungeon instance to get the points.  The 4 piece bonus is very nice when you have 40% critical strike chance.

Day 1179 - Mists of Pandarian Day 400

Took my Warlock, Shadow Priest and Rogue through LFR yesterday.  My shadow Priest struck out with no loot.  Warlock got a new non-tier glove from the extra loot bag, and the rogue got a slightly different dagger for main hand.  Not a great night, but not a lootless one either.
