In between doing gear grinding, Rogue went to Amirdrassil and finally got the last mount Anu'relos from there.  It was quite beautiful.  Learning the mount also drops druid flight form Feather of the Blazing Somnowl.  Finally it drops a book Cinder of Companionship which is required for Beastmaster Hunter to tame Nah'qi as hunter pet.  I had to park my hunter at the spawn point for ages to get the pet twice for bonus point.

Oh, I ran M+13 a couple of times, finally got the Puzzlebox from Academy and a shield out of there.

Day 5476 - Midnight Day 87

Was feeling bit off, only managed to do 2 rounds of delves.

116/85/73 87 mg/DL 256.6lb

Day 5475 - Midnight Day 86

Didn't get much done.  Rogue finish the Mythic Dungeon weekly but didn't get anything useful out of it.  Paladin tried two M+14, both failed.

113/81/75 94 mg/DL 254.8lb

Day 5474 - Midnight Day 85

Did two rounds of Delves on all level 90s.  Now that I have so many of them, it's taking a bit of time.

111/78/76 88 mg/DL 253.3lb

Day 5473 - Midnight Day 84

Found out that bonus roll now have a catch up mechanics which means my rogue now have many more than I have budgeted for.  Spend the night doing Prey to crank out the Beacon of Hope for Delves.  I took an extra beacon on Rogue and managed to get a Heroic Shoulder that allows for 5 tier pieces.  Now I can mix and match.  Only belt and rings left to be upgrade, after which I can go and craft two daggers.

The other character mostly got sidegrade gears from Great Vault, albeit my Paladin main have to settle for bonus roll.

Day 5472 - Midnight Day 83

Other than stepping into 1 Bountiful delve, it was full steam ahead on Ritual Sites 5+4.  Rogue can avoid most mobs while farming for the loot.  By the end of the night, I have more Hero crest than I have equipment upgrade.  Got the 4 piece tier bonus, which is quite powerful when I use it.

115/89/66 108 mg/DL 253.9lb

Day 5471 - Midnight Day 82

Clear Paladin's Windrunner Spire +14 key, barely.  Didn't get anything other than slight advancement of the seasonal score.

Meanwhile I'm going full steam ahead and farming Ritual Site 5+4 on Rogue.  I can average about 5 per hour.  Still hoping for the two remaining tier slot to be filled so I can convert them.

Finish leveling Rogue.  Her gear at the start of journey is 171.  I went ahead and run Prey and buy Champion track gear from vendor as I can find.  After 4 Delves, I was at 252.  I also run about 10 Ritual Sites.  Still cannot kill one of the rare that spawns in Daggerspine Point, but I cleared abut 127 currency per run, so it's 5 runs per Heroic gear.

Day 5470 - Midnight Day 81

Ran Ritual Site on Mage and Priest until they're fully upgraded at Hero track.  I also did a couple of runs of Algeth'ar Academy +12 on Paladin.  Didn't get the Puzzlebox via bonus roll.  So I went ahead and crafted a trinket that's actually good on all 3 specs.

110/74/70 102 mg/DL 255.2lb

Day 5469 - Midnight Day 80

I decided to do something about the Warlock's weapon and the rest of her sets.  So I went ahead and run Ritual Site (I did about 9) and upgrade the rest of her Hero track gear as well as doing enough of Delve 11 to fully upgrade her gears.  I still need a better trinket, but that can wait.

123/88/67 98 mg/Dl 256.3lb

Day 5468 - Midnight Day 79

Did another rounds of Delves on all level 90s.  I spend a bit of time with Hunter as she's still wearing Champion level belts.  After doing 5 Ritual Sites and not getting an upgraded belt, I ran another Delves and finally I was able to buy one on a vendor inside.  And with that, the Hunter graduated from Hero track gear using crafting bow.  The warlock should have enough crests to build her crafted weapon next week.

110/80/65 99 mg/DL 255lb

Day 5467 - Midnight Day 78

The Weekly reset brought about a significant change in so far as gear upgrade for me.  Blizzard finally removed the crest cap that leaves me with lower level crests that I have no use for.  With the cap removed, I was able to convert them to the version I needed, and managed to graduate 3 characters past Hero track gear.  Unfortunately for two of them, that will pretty much be it unless they do M+.

I have a Nexus Point M+13 key that I failed miserably at.  Regroup and tried again and managed to two chest it which brought the seasonal score up to 3027, and another mount with the achievement of Keystone Legend.

And I got all of my level 90 characters to at least finished their 3 weekly Prey quest to get the keys to do Bountiful Delves.  

112/82/74 98 mg/DL 254.1lb

Day 5466 - Midnight Day 77

Finish doing the Delves world tour on the remaining two characters.  Now I just have to finish their leveling via Prey and other tasks.

In the meantime, I managed to finish Seat of Triumvirate, Magister' Terrace and Pit of Saron on M+12.  This raises my score up to 2973.  I believe that if I finished Nexus-Point Xenas at M+12, I should be able to get to M+ score of 3000.

131/91/68 100 mg/DL 255lb

Day 5465 - Midnight Day 76

Finished Skyreach +13 with a tank that took his time.  Didn't wipe once (I died due to my own fault).  Managed to add 60 points towards the seasonal M+ score.

Found out that the Nemesis mount schematics from The War Within are now dropping from the bosses.  I was able to get Zekvir and Underpin with minimum attempts (2 and 6).  

Ky'veza at ?? difficulty still have too many instant kill mechanics to work through.  However I later found out that the schematics also drops from ? difficulty.  Took 65 attempts to be done with that.  

I also finished off getting the two remaining mounts from Horrific Vision, including the 8 Masks run.

Finally there are two Mythic Dungeon mounts from TWW that I haven't gotten yet.  Darkflame Cleft is significantly harder to do compare to The Stonevault.  Thankfully I was able to get Wick's Lead out of it.  Took 22 attempts (21 in the previous expansion).

So the only mount from there that still needs to be farm is the Stonevault Mechsuit.

Day 5463 - Midnight Day 74

Did two more rounds of Delve 11 on all remaining characters that still have keys.  With the first round, I have enough crystal for upgrade so I went ahead and crafted highest level of weapon on character that have enough Myth crest (Death Knight, Mage, Priest, Druid).  Warlock and Hunter will have to wait.  Warlock did buy a leg piece inside the Delve to convert to tier piece bringing her iLevel up to 266.

128/89/68 100 mg/DL 257lb

Day 5462 - Midnight Day 73

Finished getting the 5 shards to upgrade the crafted weapon.  I also ran a couple of more delves to farm shards for the rest of the characters.  Warlock managed to buy a hero tier helm that I converted to tier piece, which allows me to switch out the veteran track tier leg.  

Took me a while to figure out how to use the upgrade crystal.  Turns out I need to be next to the forge to do that.

For the end of the night, I went ahead and ran a Magistrate +12.  We didn't timed it, the healer was terrible.  But I did bonus rolled a Mythic track boot that I also convert for better stat.

132/89/70 102 mg/Dl 257lb

Day 5461 - Midnight Day 72

Did more runs of Delve 11.  Doesn't seem to reward the upgrade shards, or at least the rate is low.  I went ahead and did the 3 Nightmare Prey per remaining characters, since they will reward shards for the first two and still rewards key fragments for Delves.  I'm going to have to figure out a better farming solution for my non-mains.

130/81/70 97 mg/DL 255.2lb

Day 5460 - Midnight Day 71

The vault really didn't give my characters goo gears, but the big ticket item this week is the start of the grind for the direct gear upgrade beyond the previous limits.  But due to Blizzard's lack of QA, I won't be doing most of that until the hotfix later.  In the meantime, I ran all of my level 90 characters through the last DF raid.

125/84/64 94 mg/DL 255.7lb

Day 5459 - Midnight Day 70

Did another 5 Ritual Site at 5+4 for Warlock.  Did get a better stat boots.

I also timed Algeth'ar Academy +12.  Didn't get anything out of the end dungeon box and got a Mythic chest which I also convert.  I did a bit of upgrade on mythic gears so I finished with iLevel of 274.

125/82/74 99 mg/DL 256.1lb

Day 5458 - Midnight Day 69

I was able to run warlock through the 4 bountiful Delves 11 by going slowly.  Since I have more keys than bountiful Delves, I exhausted the bonus roll on them rather quickly.  I was having way more problem doing the Nightmare Prey, but I was able to get those done.  Surprisingly after clearing all of those contents and all of LFR (getting LFR iteration of leg tier piece), I started to farm Ritual Site.  By taking it slow, I was able to farm for enough currency to buy 1 box of Hero track gear.  Luckly it replaces an Adventurer track shoulder and I already have Hero track chest and glove.  And just like that, I got 4 piece tier done.  When warlock hits 90 and did her initial gearing from warbank her gear level was 221.  I ended the night at 262, significant upgrade.  I was not able to do world rare mobs at below 240.  At 262, it was much easier.

Did all Delves for the remaining characters.  With the bonus from Darkmoon Faire and the warband bonus, I was also able to level the Warlock to 90.  Now the hard part starts.  I'm not even going to start doing Nightmare Prey just yet as I don't have enough gear to even entertain that thought.

Day 5456 - Midnight Day 67

Got another round of delves done on all characters.  The Mage finally replaces the veteran track chest piece with Hero track one that I immediately convert to tier piece.  Significant upgrade that boosted the item level of the character from 264 to 269 after all of the upgrades are applied.

On my main, I managed to heal a normal Voidspire up to the final boss before the group fell apart.  I got a good group to finish Pit of Saron M+10 key.  The M+12 Seat of the Triumvirate is a bit rougher, but I managed to get that done, so now I have an M+13 key.  I did get a bonus roll of a Myth track helm that's not better than what I have right now.

120/93/76 91 mg/Dl 260.1lb

Day 5455 - Midnight Day 66

I spend a bit of time realm hopping on different character looking for one last pet in Silvermoon City.  After 4 realms, I found it.  Strange that it doesn't have the pet symbol on the mini map, but I was armed with a targeting macro.

I farmed Daggerspine Point for that last Ritual Site pet.  I realized that I can just run directly at the mob that drops the pet and I can easily do it on the lowest difficulty.  Another pet acquired.

137/95/71 100 mg/DL 260.3lb

Day 5454 - Midnight Day 65

Finished another two rounds of Delves.  Quite a few duplicated gears coming out of both bonus roll and the actual box.  Paladin did upgrade to hero track version of healing trinket.

126/63/80 94 mg/DL 259lb

Day 5453 - Midnight Day 64

Reset Vault yielded Mythic tier helm for Paladin, lots of rings, and Tier Legs for Priest that finished up her sets.  Hunter also got a Tier hand and a leg from Delve map, which also closed out her tier set.

I went ahead and did the weekly prey quest on 3 characters and then decided to knock out the bountiful map run with an easy delve in The Darkway.  Some duplicated loots.

Day 5452 - Midnight Day 63

Spend the last day of the raid week just collecting mana crystal for those characters that have not maxed out yet.  That's just for a chance to buy the correct gear after the restart of the raid week.

102/63/72 96 mg/DL 256.8lb

Day 5451 - Midnight Day 62

Took time out to finish starting the Delves world tour on the remaining characters starting with Rogue where I'm trying to learn how to play a new spec.

After about 8 runs, I was able to get the Ritual Site leatherworking recipe as well as the necessary material to start making the mount.  While doing all of that, I have enough currency to buy a Hero track gear, which turns out to be gloves that replaces Adventure track.  This allows the character to convert 3 spots to get 4 piece bonus for the season.

Leveling leatherworking from scratch is a bit of work, but at the end of the night, I got the mount made.

Took a while leveling the gears of Hunter, first through Delves and then Nightmare Prey as well as LFR.  Hunter did get a Veteran track tier leg.  I did bought a Hero track weapon.

Day 5448 - Midnight Day 59

Paladin tanked Algeth'ar Academy +10 because I got tired of waiting.  Now just Windrunner Spire remain for +10.

Did two rounds of Bountiful Delves, nothing of note in terms of loot.  I then decided to make a concerted effort of leveling Hunter.  Finish doing the world tour of the Delves and then run Void Assault as well as some normal Prey.  The gear went from iLevel 162 to 235 with just the hand me down gears.  Now the grind starts.
