Day 2929 - Battle for Azeroth Day 227

After the travel day, I didn't have much chance to do much of anything.  I should have more time to do the end of the raid week stuff today.

Travel day. 14.5 hours of flying can take a toll on the body. I only managed to get connected and do some dailies.

Day 2927 - Battle for Azeroth Day 225

I didn't have time to do much except crank out dailies that rewards 2000 gold and the one that rewards iLevel 385 gears.

Day 2926 - Battle for Azeroth Day 224

I help out guild member with their weekly using the Death Knight.  Afterward, I went ahead and done two more Mythic 0.

Day 2925 - Battle for Azeroth Day 223

We actually managed to finished the raid one hour prior to the end.  I got 3 piece of gear, with only belt being an upgrade for Retribution spec.

Day 2924 - Battle for Azeroth Day 222

I got a 415 leg out of the weekly box with a socket.  Really good upgrade for the main spec of Retribution.

Knowing that I can pretty much skip the whole instance, I went ahead and clear The Nighthold for another shot at the final boss mount there.  Still nothing.

We pass Conclave on the first night of raiding.  Afterward, I tank Freehold for 1/4 of the weekly quest.  It's now patched so we can't just do the final boss to claim credit.  But I've run Freehold so many times, it's now almost easy.

Day 2923 - Battle for Azeroth Day 221

I finally got in the Mythic 10 for the week.  Afterward, I help out a newly leveled guildmate by tanking a Mythic 4.  He even got gear from it.

In between all that, I also ran The Nighthold for the mount there.  It was only after I've clear the whole place that I realized that I could've skipped most of the instance if I only want the end boss.

Day 2922 - Battle for Azeroth Day 220

I spend quite a bit of time working on getting all of the main 12 characters' gear properly adjusted, gemmed and enchanted.  It took much longer than anticipated.  Afterward, I ran the emissary.

Day 2920 - Battle for Azeroth Day 218

I finished up the Trial of Style by running Mage, Druid and Hunter through their own run.  The mage actually win her competition, but still the point is to get enough of the reward tokens and get this season's transmog set.

Day 2919 - Battle for Azeroth Day 217

I decided to take it a bit easy and only got one additional Brawler's Guild boss.

Day 2918 - Battle for Azeroth Day 216

And we've complete Heroic Jaina after about 50 minutes.  I bonus rolled a head piece that currently have no use yet.  Afterward, we go ahead and reset the instance and clear up to Conclave.  I got a shield and a much better ring.

Before the raid start, I went into Trial of Style Season 4 and much to my surprise, I win it on a fairly bad transmog.  Since I only went there to buy this season's transmog, it works well enough for me.

Day 2917 - Battle for Azeroth Day 215

The raid from last week was extended, and we started at Stormwall Blockade, a boss that was only down once before.  We spend about 2/3 of the raid finishing it.  I got a 2 hander off it from bonus roll.

We didn't down Jaina, but that's to be expected, it is a much harder boss than normal mode.

After the raid, I queue up for the new Player vs AI battleground for the weekly event.  The AI isn't exactly up to snuff, and it's a fairly easy to do.

Day 2916 - Battle for Azeroth Day 214

I spend the last night of the raid week working mostly on the new Brawler's Guild for this expansion, Bruce.  Unlike previous expansion, you don't have to go all the way to the top to get the mount, you just have to go to level 6 (or spend a whole bunch of guild gold to buy into VIP lounge).  Fortunately for me, as a Goblin Engineer, I have a teleporter to Area 52 directly for one of the quest stop.  In all pretty fun quest chain.  Now I can take my time in getting to rank 8.

Day 2915 - Battle for Azeroth Day 213

The emissary are the Tortollan Seekers.  Unfortunately for me, the 3 closest quests are Beached, The Cycle of Life and Calligraphy.  Since the reward is a flat 2k gold, I have to run all of my characters through.  Fortunately, Calligraphy was a rather simple circle.  I found it funny that I run Beached to save the baby turtle, only to go to the next zone to help out the crab in return.

I also finished up the LFR/Pandaria raid for this week and start working on the Brawler's guild murder mystery.  I'm currently stuck on the Rumble portion of the chain.  I'll revisit it later.

The final boss of Mogu'Shan Vaults appears to be rather bugged as I've cycled more than a couple of characters through there to try getting the battle pet.  Oh well, I can go ahead and run the the whole instance except this boss.  Thankfully this encounter does not drop any of the tier set needed for the collections.

I have 3 more characters left after running through the Pandaria raids and LFR.

Day 2913 - Battle for Azeroth Day 211

The faction invasion cleared 2 emissary (Alliance War Effort, Proudmoore), so I have to get all of the characters through the effort.

After that, I went ahead and did 3 more characters through LFR for mount farming.  While waiting for the LFR queue, I clear Pandarian raids for battle pets.

At the end of the night, I'm 3 pets short.  Checking the auction house across 2 servers, I was able to get all of them for about 80k gold.  And now I'm done with the current round of Raiding with Leases.

Day 2912 - Battle for Azeroth Day 210

I actually got 3 of the 11 alts through LFR for the mount farming.  This is while doing Pandaria raid for the new pets that could drop from there.  I managed to get 3 new pets.  Still a long way from completing the achievement pet.

Day 2911 - Battle for Azeroth Day 209

We didn't down Stormwall Blockade, only manage Mekkatorque.  Next week, we'll extend the raid and go to the Blockade directly.

I also start doing the Pandaria raid to get the next raid battle pet drops.  I only managed to get one out of it.

Day 2910 - Battle for Azeroth Day 208

After the missing the weekly cache last week, I opted to get that out of the way as soon as possible this week.  I went ahead and tank Freeport +9 right away and actually beat the timer.  After the raid, I join Freeport +9 as a dps.  And we managed to beat that timer as well.  I got an upgraded belt out of that effort.

We have a bit of issue with the raid this week.  Boss that we one shotted took 2-3 attempts.  I did get an upgraded tanking weapon out of the raid.

Day 2909 - Battle for Azeroth Day 207

Last day of patch 8.1.  Unfortunately for me, whatever plan I had is out of the window as I spend 6 hours debugging work issue.  Oh well.

Day 2908 - Battle for Azeroth Day 206

I somehow managed to queue to the wrong queue for my mage.  Oh well, at least I managed to help out the Ulduar LFR raid.  I also managed to finished up all of the rest of the LFR and done the Dark Shore Warfront for all of my characters.  Surprisingly not all of them can actually use their guarantee iLevel 400 at their primary spec.

I put three characters through LFR in farming for the mount before I realized that the Dark Shore Warfront is up, thus making my wait through the LFR queue much more manageable.  My characters can also use the guarantee iLevel 400 gears from winning the first match of the cycle.  I managed to get 4 characters through Warfront and LFR and 3 characters through LFR itself.  No mounts.

Day 2905 - Battle for Azeroth Day 203

The emissary daily is iLevel 385 gear from 7th Legion.  Fortunately there's an invasion going on in Stormsong, which gave me a chance to rotate all 12 characters through it.  Unfortunately, no weapon on any of them yet.

122/86/60 91 mg/DL 246.8lb

Day 2904 - Battle for Azeroth Day 202

Despite attendance problem, we managed to down Stormwall Blockade after 1/2 way mark.  I managed to get a glove that's an upgrade for Protection and Holy spec.  We spend the rest of the night learning Heroic Jaina mechanics.

130/88/66 92 mg/DL 246.2lb

Day 2903 - Battle for Azeroth Day 201

As usual, we got pass Mekkatorque on our first night of raiding.  Unlike last week, I actually got quite a bit of loot from the raid: belt, chest, higher iLevel tanking crown.  The weekly chest also gotten me something to replace the iLevel 370 ring for a change.

Patch 8.1.5 will come out next week.  The game will lose quite a few portals.  Guess I'm going to have to get used to using Stormshield ones.

Day 2902 - Battle for Azeroth Day 200

I managed to finished up the last 3 characters through the LFR.  Not surprisingly when two of the characters arrived there, the raid was at the last boss.  No matter, the last boss is the one I was farming for the mount.  Next week.

127/89/72 90 mg/DL 246.2lb

Day 2901 - Battle for Azeroth Day 199

This time I got Rogue, Hunter, Druid and Priest through LFR.  While waiting for the queue to come up, I decided to run through both Blackrock Foundry and Emerald Nightmare for the transmog.

The Sha of Anger mount was up in Black Market Auction House.  Unfortunately, my limit is 2.1 million gold.  I didn't have enough to outbid the winning bid.

Now that third wing of LFR is open, it's time to go back and farm mount again.  This time it's the mount off Mekkatorque.  Except Blizzard have wisely change the boss that drop it from the first boss of the third wing to the last wing to prevent people for queueing up just for the mount.  I managed to got Demon Hunter, Shaman and Monk through LFR.
