What We've Been Doing:

Constraxx
Rocking and rolling on Emissaries for reputation and for Artifact research to Level 25, 3 characters so far at max research, possibly level some other things prior to launch, Goblin on earthen ring has just passed level 10.
Different Queue for when you’re in a hurry, a level lower and a buff to difficulty by removing tank from group might change the tuning of a 5 man dungeon. I really miss the good old scenarios from Pandaria where you actually got to learn something when you went there and it only had the Hard difficulty setting or no entry.

7.2 is coming on tuesday.
Blizzard will bring back Scenarios as part of the new Broken Isles version of the Legion invasion events, having them be the final of 3 stages.
Patch 7.2 adds the first pet battle dungeon, a solo scenario entitled Wailing Critters.
Preparing for the Dungeon
- Once inside the scenario, you cannot leave or you'll have to start over.
- The scenario is somewhat time-consuming, so be prepared to spend at least a half hour inside.
- Most battles are against Beast type pets, so Mechanical pets will have a clear advantage.
- You should bring an Aquatic pet for the final boss, Budding Everliving Spore, due to his Elemental type.
Consider adding these pets to your team:
- Iron Starlette, Darkmoon Tonk or Darkmoon Zeppelin - All solid mechanical pets with excellent movesets.
- Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling - A great Mechanical pet that will be useful versus the Growing Ectoplasm, which uses Magic type moves and is weak to Dragonkin moves.
- Anubisath Idol - This pet's dominant stall strategy with a decent Mechanical attack is effective against most pets.
- Emerald Proto-Whelp - It can outlast pretty much any other pet.
- Zandalari Anklerender - Its Black Claw + Swarm combo is effective against most low-quality pets, but the Anklerender may struggle against Son of Skum.
- Pandaren Water Spirit - A great pick for its high aquatic damage and valuable stun versus the final boss, Budding Everliving Spore.
Getting to the Dungeon
- Visit Breanni’s Magical Menagerie in Dalaran (Broken Isles) and speak with either Lio the Lioness (Alliance) or Serr’ah (Horde).
- Pick up A Call from the Caverns and head to the skull-shaped rock above Wailing Caverns to find Muyani.
- Alliance players can get to Ratchet by taking the portal in Dalaran to the Shrine of the Seven Stars and then speaking to Gleep Chatterswitch (and paying her 10g). She is located outside on the Summer Terrace, near a teleporter.
- Once you’ve arrived at Wailing Caverns, fly up into the left eye of the dungeon's skull. Talk to Muyani, Disciple of Naralex and accept Wailing Critters.
- Speak with her again to be teleported into the scenario. You will not be able to start the scenario by zoning in to Wailing Caverns.
- It challenges players to complete eleven pet battles, including a final battle versus a Legendary foe.
- All enemies are Level 25 pets of increasing quality that are classified as either Elite or Boss.
- There are two different scenarios: a one-time scenario and a weekly challenge scenario.
Requirements
One-Time Scenario
- Requires Level 110 and one Level 25 pet, but it's recommended you have at least three max level pets.
- Pets can be healed and revived between battles.
Weekly Challenge Scenario
- Requires Level 110 and at least fifteen Level 25 pets.
- Pets cannot be healed or revived between battles.
Rewards
One-Time Scenario
Weekly Challenge Scenario
- Awards Damp Pet Supplies, which has a chance to contain: Cavern Moccasin, Everliving Spore, or Young Venomfang.
Dungeon Stages
- Each battle will require you to defeat three pets.
- The primary pet will always be accompanied by two Common-quality pets randomly selected from the Deviate pets battled in Stage 1.
- Stage 1 - Defeat Deviate Smallclaw (Beast, Common), Deviate Chomper (Aquatic, Common), Deviate Flapper (Flying, Common), and their teams.
- Stage 7 - Defeat the Budding Everliving Spore (Elemental, Legendary, Boss). His Acid Rain + Dreadful Breath combination will do a high amount of damage if the fight goes on too long. Acid Rain will also cause Aquatic abilities to do more damage, so with a quality Aquatic pet you’ll be able to dispatch him relatively quickly.
- With the successful defeat of the Budding Everliving Spore, return to Muyani to turn in the quest and receive your reward: Ultimate Battle Training Stone.
My little Monk, Tìan, has reached level 80 now, almost made it with a 2h buff run for 10 character levels until 60, then it slowed down, but it’s still running the better part of the way, getting 7 levels from the 2h buff, including wait time between dungeons.
Being in Stratholme and being
Looking forward to seeing how it’s gonna work when the exp gain slows down starting on Cataclysm dungeons.
No new legendary items for 2 weeks now !!
Have a great day! 😄

Each week GrandNagus takes a closer look at some of the most useful World of Warcraft addons out there.
This means what it’s saying, if you are using the Addon FollowerLocationInfo, it’s used to locate the followers in Warlords of Draenor, uninstall it, because it’s not working anymore.
You can find GrandNagus on Twitter @GrandNagus1, or by email at towerofcommerce@gmail.com
