I guess I've spent 1 year on farming that ach. 2000 killing blows. *sigh*
I'm happy it was reduced from 10.000 killing blows though. :)

Oh wow, congrats! I long ago filed that in the "too much effort" box
in my mind lol, probably farmable enough in a quiet corner using an
alt by now but still, it's a LOT of work! I've done a few big grinds
but those involving pvp are too much for me hehe.

My current target is the brutosaur mount before it's removed, think it
was early December they announced that, and I had 3 million gold
across my account (and was rather annoyed with myself for paying my
sub with gold through most of 2019, spent at least 1.5 million on
that); I now have 4.3 million, so should be safe to get it in time,
just takes consistent playing and trying to earn a reasonable amount
each day. The influx of people enjoying the levelling speed bonus has
caused a nice spike in glyph sales this week, which is a big help :-)

You should be able to make it with your bf unless your accounts are
linked somehow. Let him have a stripped char and you kill him over an
over again. I decided to do it the intended way though. :)
I'm on/off with wow. I returned a week ago after being away for 11-12
months. I haven't missed much I see. But when I farmed those bloody
coins I did around 4 BGs every day. One loss and one win in average.
0-5 killing blows every day. With this week's ashran brawl I have made
some higher numbers luckily.

Are you sure it won't last through the next expansion? Afaik they said
the same with the spider mount. But (another) afaik it's still available.

Ouch, that is a LOT of work, respect, I couldn't do that grind I
think. And I play healer, so... killing blows in a BG? No chance lol,
I don't even have shadow word death for sniping low health any ore
hehe.

Don't recall them saying that with the spider, but they definitely and
clearly said a few months back that the brutosaur will be removed with
patch 9.0. They might yet change their minds but I won't be counting
on it, way better to make sure I've got it beforehand! Had thought
it'd be too big a task but the progress I've made so far, it should be
fine, phew :-) Kinda fun learning how to make more money than I used
to tbh, I quite fancy that spider so might carry on afterwards, I'll
never be a really rich person but can make steady income anyway.

Say if you need gold. Please. I still have ~1M gold (I found another
400K on my druid this morning lol). I dont do the AH game anymore and I
have made like 50K gold just on questing the last 7-8 days. So I'm
definitely not in lack of gold. :)

Thanks :-) I don't think I'll need it though; the glyph market has

farming glyph recipes lately, even gems are selling a bit better, so
it's a good time for gold at present :-)

Same old ones we've had for ages, have to say I don't even use any on

Cool! This reminds of my time as the *glyph king* when I ruled the AH
back in wotlk and pandaria. Fun times. =)

I've made another 7K gold on dailies here and there + the usual 3-4
battlegrounds since yesterday. And I really dont know where I get all
the gold from besides selling grey items.

Hehe nice! I used to get a fair bit of money from it, haven't done a
lot the last few expansions but it's going nicely at present, helps
that many glyphs use Legion herbs and so are actually quite expensive
(and, amazingly, the sellers haven't crashed the glyphs down to below
herb value yet).

Lol yeah it adds up quite fast, I tend to get quite a lot from gold
emissaries and paragon chests particularly, cooking up feasts to sell
(requires a BoP ingredient from Mechagon, so are actually limited) is
also pretty nice. I had a target of 8-10k a day and hit that most
days, till I went over so much that now I really only need about 5k a
day and I'll be safe to get the brutosaur before 9.0. And that's with
an estimate of July for 9.0, which is categorically not happening now;
it's April tomorrow and we don't even have unencrypted alpha, and with
everyone having to work from home now, it'll be a slower development
I'd guess, hitting this year at all will be good going!

Thinking of resubbing my 2nd account now, with Legion getting the
legacy loot treatment (so raidbosses drop multiple items, not a chance
at a single one via personal loot), my bf is keen on some sets from
Legion so duoing raids will be fun, and I quite fancy the T6 lookalike
set for my druid (on the unsubbed account), so seems a good time with
the exp buff as well :-)

So I resubbed my 2nd account this weekend to have a go at Legion raids
for transmog now they added legacy loot (duoing with my bf, but
there's some really nice druid sets in that expansion so having him
tag along on follow), and discovered I had more gold on that account
than I knew about; I'd thought it was about 300k but it was 500k.
Combined with some really good gem sales thanks to warfront
contributions the past couple of days and I got myself a brutosaur
earlier tonight :-D I now have no gold lol, about 15k left spread
across my 6 highest lvl characters... so I guess the goldfarming will
have to continue for a bit until I feel slightly less broke, but
still, really happy to have hit such a big goal already!

Btw, was it you who suggested I try Comp Stomp brawl for Defilers rep
ages back? If so, thanks for the tip! I actually got around to it this
week and hit exalted a few minutes ago, today was a successful day :-)
It's a fun one, I'll probably do that a bit when it comes up in future
too, great way to get marks of honor.

Good to hear. :) I don't know if the WSG brawl still exists. But if it
does you should visit that one too once it pops. 3 flags in front of
each base. You need to cap them 10 times for a win and 1 flag gives 100
rep. A win in this brawl yields around 2000 rep if I'm not wrong. Skip
the moaning from the other players and focus 110% on flagruns all the
time. Even a loss gives a nice sack of reputation. :)

Oh that sounds good, will keep an eye out for it, though it'll take
pure luck for me to notice it as I rarely pay much attention to what's
going on in PVP lol, will probably find out it was on a few days after
it ends! Enjoyed Comp Stomp though, suits me nicely, although I do
wish the bots didn't focus fire so effectively, most unrealistic AI

I just restarted my mount farm again. I realized I was 18 mounts behind
the 350 mounts ach. So I spent ~100k on 3 mounts on AH and another 150K
on 2 rep mounts. That's 337/350 mounts so far. But I'm not gonna park
8-10 chars outside a raid entrance anymore like I did a few years ago.
That is simple too tedious. :)
But I also checked my guild banks a few days ago. I still have 2 guild
banks stocked with gear from the crates in WoD + a lot more on 2 chars.
Plenty of gear that doesn't exists in the game anymore which TSM values
quite high.
But I also found the plans for Dirge on one char. It's a very very very
very very very rare worlddrop like many other plans and recipes in TBC.
So I hope I can make a few coins on it. ;)

Oh nice, good luck! Had to login to check my progress lol, I stopped
checking after I hit 300, figuring I was miles off, but apparently
it's.... 349. Lol, I guess I'll start farming something then! I
finally got the white raptor from Arathi today, been wanting that for
ages, I'm down to just the one to farm there now, thank goodness. If
that doesn't drop from my 4 other 120 alts this week I guess I'll get
back into farming Army of the Light rep for paragon caches; I normally
just do it on WQ bonus week but tbh it'll be a cache every 2nd day
even outside bonus week so probably one of the easier chances. Think I
never got the ZG panther yet either, so I can park an alt outside that
place too, one run per day is enough though.

Ooh nice. Although take care; I had some that didn't drop any more,
but other items have same appearance... they might be listed high but
they never sell lol. However some have unique appearances and those
must be worth tons!

Oh wow nice! Again, caution with selling rates, as I've been trying to
sell a rareish recipe for 6 months without success... but mine's for
an engineering trinket, not a desirable transmog, yours should have a

Do you have the mail muncher from the horrific vision? It should be a
guaranteed 100% drop if you loot one of the mailboxes.
I looted a mailbox a week ago and fought something. No mount though. I
guess I had to loot the corpse. :)

after 6-8 attempts. 339/350. Plus the lasso dropped from one of the
mogus this morning. Now I just have to find the ivory cloud serpent.

Oh nice! I'm nowhere near that but as I've resubbed my 2nd account and
my bf is currently subbed, we can do islands again (I *hate* forced
pugging of something I'm perfectly capable of soloing/duoing so just
don't do them unless we can supply all 3 accounts between us), so I'll
start saving doubloons and see how it goes, currently picking up the
vendor pets but mount will follow, maybe I should save for the mount
with my main and use alts for the pets which need fewer, probably more
efficient!

I have a strong feeling that nobody is going to miss the warfront
scenarios if Blizzard decides to not include them in shadowlands.
I did the heroic Darkshore a single time on my mage (430ish at that
time) and it was almost just as easy as the original warfront. They
have a litte more health and they smash you a little harder. But
nothing special imho. The worse part are all the moaners. Luckily the
badboy addon has an excellent extension (Ccleaner) for those as it's
able to filter on "noobs", "nabs", "retards" etc.
I cant remember if you get 445 or 460 gear from hc darkshore. Hc arathi
highlands only drops 430 ifair.

rumble a lot of them as I have been busy with other things in the game

A tip for the islands: dont loot chests or boxes. Just bodypull a few
groups while mounted up and nuke them down. it goes quicker with that
method.

I certainly wouldn't. However, a friend of mine who plays WoW far more
than I does them every time they are up.

They seemed popular the few times I've done them (that is, getting a

If you were 430 when you did the non-heroic you should have noticed a
HUGE difference. But I mostly did Arathi as Darkshore is super dull.

At leas the boss invading the Keep is a decent fight and takes some
coordination. Some.

Darkshore is 460; it was bugged the first 2 months and credited you
for the heroic quest if you did normal... I didn't do it the first
time as I figured obvious bug/exploit, bt the 2nd time I figured
theyleft it in this long, so it must be ok - and got a 460 for the

become un-crossrealmed on RP realms (My DH exists purely for
open-world rare hunting; I rolled her on the quietest RP realm I could
find after I heard they're not crossrealmed lol - they *are*
crossrealmed in current content, but only with other RP realms, in old
content it's lovely and qiet... except for other people who had the
same idea as me, anyway)

neither Rarity or All the Things are mentioning that to me, lets go

drop as I don't even remember getting it, not like the Voldunai who
took 13 caches to give me their toy, and the Tortollans who I'm still
trying after 15... I'd hoped Blizz would learn after Legion to put bad
luck protection on paragon caches but I guess not.

I need to get round to rep farming on my alliance DH for the paragon
rewards from their factions too... that'll be a right pain if Blizz
don't extend the rep buff like they did the exp one, I'm only
honoured/revered with all those factions. Still, maybe I might manage
to finish the storylines when I get round to that character, as gear
by now should make the dungeons fairly manageable (at least if I can
get my bf to go in with me for the bosses with unsoloable mechanics,
Waycrest Manor is a pain lol, mind control or chain stun... because it
has the anchor weed quest it's the dungeon I've done most, too, sigh)

PvP is heavily affected by rng as corruptions aren't disabled in
battlegrounds and arenas. There is a nonstop rageparty on the pvp scene
as an unskilled pvp player can easily nuke a 2800 rated pvp'er if the
pve'er has the right corruptions and they proc fast.

I'd hoped Blizz would learn after Legion to put bad luck protection on
paragon caches but I guess not.

Blizzard is under the impression that the RNG is "fun", and has said so
many times.

To a certain point, I agree, I *like* the paragon caches if it was
likely to get everything I wanted within the first few. I don't so
much like taking 30+ attempts to get a mount, at 10k rep per try. The
"will I get it?" is fun the first few times, for me, but there needs
to be an end to it, that doesn't involve still farming rep a year into
the next expansion... middle ground, basically!

349/350. Malevolent drone just dropped after probably 10 attempts. And
I'm 112 seafarer's dubloon from my 350th mount. :)

That's a lot of mounts.

I stopped collecting awhile ago as I realized there were only about 8
mounts I liked using anyway.

Lol, yep, I'm not thinking of that one till next expansion, way too
far away at present :-) Grats though, always feels good to hit the
milestones!

Mail muncher dropped for me last night. When I did my full clear, got
to the reward room and opened chests I also got a pet. Unbelievable. I
have started lurking in Mechagon for mounts as well. But I have to run
out of luck and that island is the perfect place. :)

Btw. The visions are way easier around rank 10-13 compared to rank 1-9.
Last night I had plenty of time to search for more boxes due to the
talent tree and my cloak's 65% corruption resistance. And I still need
to tick the last box in the talent tree. It feels weird.

Congrats! Still trying for that muncher, maybe one day! Mechagon is
pretty good, I got the one from Rustfeather a while back which is
good, as the rare for the other one does a zonewide yell on spawn, so
as long as I'm in fairly quick flying range I don't need to actively
camp the spawn, can usually get there in time (well, when people don't
nuke it to the max so it dies in 10 seconds flat...)

Yep! Really liked the feeling of progress as the improved cloak made
it easier. Hit a bit of a wall now I've maxed the cloak and talents
though, can do 2 masks comfortably with my bf, and 1 mask ok solo
(mostly comfortable except just 2 particularly hard mobs which often
"kill" me and blow my emergency res...), but any more isn't happening
so far. Might have another try at 3 masks with my bf this week, as
that awful madness that traps you in a circle isn't up this week -
it's that one which gets me killed, trapping me on top of things I
really need to move out of!

The big problem is gearing; because they removed warforging I'm just
stuck, feel like I need better gear to progress, but can't get better
gear without being able to do higher difficulty visions (and even then
I'll never get better than 445 weapon/ring/trinket). Feels harsh that
content meant to be soloed (as an option, at least) really needs gear
from non-solo content to be able to progress further, I'm hoping that
Torghast in Shadowlands will be an improvement on that and have its
in-zone buffs be strong enough to offset gearing issues, as I really
love the concept, just don't love hitting a brick wall with my
progress.

I just restarted my mount farm again. I realized I was 18 mounts behind
the 350 mounts ach. So I spent ~100k on 3 mounts on AH and another 150K
on 2 rep mounts. That's 337/350 mounts so far. But I'm not gonna park
8-10 chars outside a raid entrance anymore like I did a few years ago.
That is simple too tedious. :)

Oh nice, good luck! Had to login to check my progress lol, I stopped
checking after I hit 300, figuring I was miles off, but apparently
it's.... 349.

So with all the Legion mounts I was going for (2 paragon and 2 drops
in Argus)... Corpse Eater in Uldum dropped his mount first! Nice to
have some luck anyway, now to hope some of the Legion mounts drop
too...

So you got the ach? :) Corpse eater is on my farm list too.

Yep! :-) Wasn't even specifically aiming for it, just a lucky result
of doing the assault and figuring lets kill the mount rare while he's
up!
