Day 1927 - Warlords of Draenor Day 378

Learn something new today.  The fishing net used by my shipyard mission counts as fishing.  Thus I was able to fish up Sea Turtle mount.  That's another mount I don't have to worry about.

I did a couple of Mythic Dungeon with guild member to pickup some valor point as well as trying to get the trinket off the bosses.  No luck.

The elusive mount farming for Drake of the Northwind is over.  Not that I actually managed to farm it, but this time it comes up again in the Blackmarket Auction House.  And this time I babysit it, and it escalated into a bidding war.  I end up paying 201k gold for it.  Consider the amount of time my rogue wasted on it, I think it's well worth it.

I then went on two Mythic dungeon on my hunter.  Didn't get anything other than the valor point.  After that, while waiting for the daily heroic dungeon queue, I finish up the Tanaan Jungle mount farming by getting Tundra Icehoof off Rattling Iron Cage, which dropped off one of the 4 specific world boss in Tanaan.  I've gotten 6 cages, and 4 of them have identical mount.  Which means I was farming for the icehoof for a while.  2 mounts in one day is a new record for me, albeit, I bought one of them.

Day 1925 - Warlords of Draenor Day 376

I spend the day grinding out as much valor point as I can on my paladin and hunter via LFR as I can stomach.  For a change, there are chances that LFR will have well geared raiders looking to pick up easy valor point, thus making the raid run goes faster.

Day 1924 - Warlords of Draenor Day 375

With the holiday, we didn't get a whole lot of things done.  We ran lower HFC with my Death Knight tanking.  I did get 2 one hander (one of which I'll be using in my dps spec) and a good tanking trinket.  Still a good night of raiding all things considered.

Day 1923 - Warlords of Draenor Day 374

We actually have more people online for our second night of raiding than usual.  So we decided to do a near full clear of the heroic raid instance.  For the most part, I brought in my Death Knight to tank most of the instances, with the exception of the final 2 bosses.  I did get the heroic version of the Paladin tier chest piece off a bonus roll.  The DK got a helm to complete the 2 piece bonus as well as weapon for the off spec and a tanking trinket.

After the raid, I decided to spend a bit of time trying to get the weekly bonus event done, as it rewards 500 VP.

Day 1922 - Warlords of Draenor Day 373

New raid week.  With the valor point upgrade, our raid was able to get pass the first 2 boss without much difficulty.  We got the third boss down after 1 hour of solid work.  And we get to see the next boss for about 4 pulls.  All in all, a very good night.  The hunter got a Mythical tier head piece off a bonus roll.  Now she needs to run heroic Socrethar the Eternal to get the heroic version of the Tier glove to complete the look..

Day 1921 - Warlords of Draenor Day 372

I run as many of the Timewalker Dungeon event as I can.  No mount drops.  But I'm well on my way to buying the 2 additional mount with the badges.  The upcoming raid night will be interesting with the holidays and many people away.

Day 1920 - Warlords of Draenor Day 371

Just for completeness sake, I have to run my toons through Dragon Soul, Ulduar and Icecrown Citadel.  I didn't nearly have enough time to get most of my toons through Mogu'shan Vaults.  Oh well, there is next week.

One way of getting new valor point to get gear upgrade is doing daily heroic dungeon, weekly LFR.  So that's what I end up doing.  It's extremely tedious grind.  All the while I have to run my various characters with legendary ring through Archimonde on normal or heroic difficulty to get the upgrade.  This will only get more work up.

Day 1918 - Warlords of Draenor Day 369

With the weekend upon us, I finally got time to go and do the non-guild raiding stuff.  This means getting my other characters their ring token done.  The druid tank/dps is my current character.  She's about 9 tokens away from the ring.  I'm also trying to pick up gears for the rest of my toons.  It's going to be a slow process.

Day 1917 - Warlords of Draenor Day 368

In the optional clean up day, I took my warrior through most of the lower HFC heroic except the final boss there.  I didn't get anything out of the run.  My paladin came in for Gorefiend heroic and didn't get anything either.

Day 1916 - Warlords of Draenor Day 367

We spend the second raid night of the week learning Mythical Kormrok.  Our best attempt is 17%.  With the new valor point upgrade, our attempt should be much better.

Just before the raid, I went into Ulduar 10 naked on my paladin.  Took one last pull on the optional boss Razorscale to get Iron Dwarf, Medium Rare (10 players).  That's the last achievement I needed for Glory of Ulduar Raider (10 players) and Rusted Proto-Drake mount.  Now I can go back to just farm Yogg-Saron for that rare mount.

Day 1915 - Warlords of Draenor Day 366

New raid week also brought along new patch.  We're now on 6.2.3.  Valor points are back for gear upgrade.  Cataclysm Timewalker dungeon will start on Wednesday.  I actually took my paladin through my raid's weekly Mannoroth-Archimonde run.  While I didn't get the class trinket, I did get the second best dps trinket off Mannoroth off a bonus roll.  I also got a good shoulder off Archimonde as well as getting the Ahead of the Curve achievement.  After that, I spend a good 90 minutes rumping through a whole bunch of LFR to farm for valor points.  I got enough for 2 upgrades, but I'm going to hold off until I get something really useful to upgrade it with.

Oh, with the downing of Archimonde on Heroic mode, I got the Grove Warden mount (after minor difficulty with the quest itself):

Druid riding a Druid mount in Moonglade.

We also got the first 2 boss in Mythic down, giving us time to fully devote to the third boss in Mythic on our second raid day.

Day 1914 - Warlords of Draenor Day 365

On the last day of the raid week, I decided to do something differently.  I signed up the druid to tank Socrethar the Eternal.  I was the robot driver.  After a couple of wipes, we got him down.  Didn't get the tier token.

I then spend the rest of the evening tanking on the paladin on Mannoroth and Archimonde.  Mannoroth finally went down after 2 wipes, and we never did get Archimonde.  It didn't help that the times between pulls were over 15 minutes.

Tonight's bloody coin farming went a lot worse.  4 coins in 20 minutes.

Day 1913 - Warlords of Draenor Day 364

Today is my warrior's turn.  Ran the entire upper level of HFC normal with a guild group.  There was a lot of turnover as people join and leave.  I did get the third tier piece that I really cannot use right now.  I also got a tanking trinket, dps ring, transmog shield and a very good shoulder.  Most of all, I also got a class trinket, my first toon to get one.  It's kind of sad that my hunter doesn't need that trinket, and all of my other characters want it.

I also spend a good chunk of the time finish up my weekly mount farming.  Still nothing.  But on other note, I've decided to farm bot farmers for bloody coins from Timeless Isle.  It'll be a long grind as I can only kill them once every 10 minutes.  I got 20/500, so quit a ways to go.

I'm trying to get my druid through her long quest token collection phase of ring quest.  I ran the druid through 3 different normal HFC.  She got a whole bunch of nearly unnecessary staff that's good for transmog purpose.

Time for me to run my alts.  I managed to get on a very well run Mannoroth->Archimonde guild group and got the chest piece for my 2 piece bonus.  I'm not sure how good it is for both of my spec.  I also got DPS neck, and cloak.  Not bad for a night of raiding 2 bosses.

Day 1910 - Warlords of Draenor Day 361

We finished up lower level heroic.  I brought my Death Knight through all of it.  My DPS is quite low, so I have figure out how to fix it.  I did get a new helm, and a new necklace.

Later on, I tried to upgrade all of my rings.  My Paladin have to turn to tanking to finish the upgrade.  Still no trinket.  I also try to tanking on my warrior.  Got onto a group, but unfortunately the loot rule wasn't explain until Gorefiend and they mention the tier token is reserved for guild.  I left after that.

Day 1909 - Warlords of Draenor Day 360

Due to people late on getting on the game, we started the raid a bit late.  We managed to get through the Hellfire Assault encounter in about an hour, but Iron Reaver proves to be tougher this week than last.  There's always next week.

Day 1908 - Warlords of Draenor Day 359

We decided to mix things up a bit.  We finish up Mannoroth and Archimonde on heroic difficulty to get those 2 bosses out of the way.  Afterward, we switch over to Mythic difficulty and try the encounters anew.  We're short on some of our key healers, and it really shows.  While we have no trouble getting the require damage out of our DPS, we really don't have enough heal to carry us through.  After 90 minutes of wipes, we stop for the night and switch back to Heroic to gear up some new member.  We got past the Assault encounter easy enough, but wipe to Iron Reaver.  At which point, we call it a night.

Day 1907 - Warlords of Draenor Day 358

On the last day of the raid week, I finally got my warrior to finish tanking Mannoroth and Archimonde.  I got both an excellent dps trinket off Mannoroth and the best belt (until Heroic) off the same boss via bonus roll.  Archimonde in normal mode isn't that hard.

Went to see the doctor about my hypertension sensation and we agree to cut back on my caffeine intake and make sure I'm fully hydrated.  This will be tough.

Day 1906 - Warlords of Draenor Day 357

I took my paladin through 4 Mythic difficulty dungeons, which is this week's weekend bonus.  In Everbloom, I did 40% of the healing and 50% of the damage.  I was the only one alive quit a few times.  I also tried to take my druid through a couple of runs of HFC to get her gears and token.  Still very far away from the ring.

Day 1904 - Warlords of Draenor Day 355

Took my Paladin and Death Knight through normal Mannoroth and Archimonde to upgrade their ring.  The Death Knight did get a nice DPS cloak out of her trouble.

My blood pressure is still out of wack and I'm not feeling all that well.

Day 1903 - Warlords of Draenor Day 354

We ran the normal difficult raid for the third day of the raid week.  This week I took my warrior through the lower half of the instance.  I didn't get any loot, but I did finish the ring quest done.  My 4th character to have this done.

My blood pressure is gone a wee bit on the wacky side today and I got those old winter headache again.  Need to watch out.

After 4 wipes at the final boss of Brawler's Guild, I finally got the achievement, and I got the mount to prove it.

We also got the second boss of Mythical raid down, and the hunter shown here got the Mythic version of the agility trinket.

We one shot both final bosses in heroic difficulty.  I then switch over to my paladin and tank the rest of the instances that we did finish starting in upper half.  I got about 4 pieces of new gear, some upgrade, some not.  In all, a good night.

The rogue also finish the 333 crystal leg of the legendary rogue quest.  Unfortunately, the next leg needs 60 clusters, which means about 5 more weeks of farming.

On the last day of the raid week, I got almost nothing done.  One thing I did get done is to do the Day of the Dead event by going to Stormwind and buying all 5 toys for a total of 500g.  Money well spend.

I got the rest of my toons through their paces of doing the weekly raid mount run.  Just for kicks, I also send my rogue through 10 run of Vortex Pinnacle.   278 run and no mount.

Just to balance things out, I send my Paladin to Eye of Eternity to farm for the Azure Drake.  On the very first run, I managed to get the mount.  One less raid instance to farm for mount.  And if I get the Blazing Drake from Dragon Soul, I would complete the drake mount achievement and unlock one more mount.  I also decided to spend 50k on buying the Arroka faction's mount, one that I have missed.  I'm still quit a few mount away from 300 mount, but I'm working on them.
