AH woes! The reputable paragon caches.  

Cooking recipes 3 star, 250 Resources, 500 Resources, 2500 Azerite power, and 3874 Gold. Proudmoor Admiralty, StormWake, Tortollan, and 7Th Legion all hit paragon this week.

Landing the big fish with 5 quests for Incursions, you need a bit of luck for 7th legion to be up, the zone to be your emissary, and several alts to do it on, and you can wrap up quests in 5 minute each, you score 1000 rep split in zone and 7th legion, +1500 rep for the zone if you do on 3 alts you get 2500 rep per alt so that’s ¾ ofa paragon cache for my 3 alts for 40 minutes of questing.

Doing Warfront now has a failsafe, you will tipycally get a different 385 reward for a slot that is not upgraded yet, if all your slots are upgraded, there is a chance to proc 390 or higher, there is also the chance to loot a 370 weapon or warforge higher on the weapon.

Many 3 star recipes dropping around the clock, requirements loosened to 22 hour window easier during the holidays to max out stuff.

Engineering gets no reward from tortollans at revered, sadly.

Multi-flgithpath + cross-faction for 7th Legion or honorbound, cost 95 gold, can be mailed to an alt.  Can buy +5% to mission chance for 200 Resource.

Leveling Alts when you dont have killing Power, bringing in second account with Murderous class.

Checking out AH from opposite faction, Warmode is a flat 30% buff to Azerite, gold and Resources.  Improved reward from questing on leveling toons.

PvP reward if you do Incursion with Warmode enabled.  Occasionally you run into a Raid.

Goblin Goldcast ideas for how to do a few more things.

Grand Nagus

Fa-la-la-la-la-Orgri’la Complete the daily quest “Bomb Them Again!” while  mounted on a flying reindeer during the Feast of Winter Veil

I stood in Orgrimmar after opening my presents on Trelane,  and a trade window opened form a blood elf mage named Rhydian, and he traded me Green Ribboned Holiday Gift, just like that!  I opened it and in it there was a Direhorn Runt pet. Such a nice gesture, thanks again Rhydian.
I created a new Gnome Warlock. She’s level 43 at the moment.
My new little Warlock, Seska, on Zangarmarch, was herbing on the Stranglethorn coast, and a Druid came and gathered the herb just before me and flew off, then when i got to the next herb, that same Druid was there, gathering just before me, and flying off, and with the next herb, same story. That Druid waited for me to catch up with them before gathering, so i would be able to pick it too before it would despawn for me! What a nice Druid! Thank you very much, Auyia from the Azshara server.

PvP Brawl and 4 Random Battlegrounds.
Punishment worth The ReWards. Lag, increased Damage, mashing buttons, Healing that is appropriate and fitting, the downside of the pity locker, Arathi Blizzard is a fair fight for the most part.

5000 World Quests, Really?!?

Auction house Woes, the winners and Loosers this weekend.  Cloth is good, Enchanting is bad, Plates is So-So; Weapons are always a winner.

Earning Revered Reputation with 7th Legion on Alliance has become easier with Incursions, split reputation with the zone you are in and the 7th Legion on completion of zone’s 4 quest.

Gearing the Alts, cuz free loot is Free. 385 gear.

Incursions, Meh, 28k Exp at level 113 insufficient to make much of a dent in leveling. 20% buff nerfed to 10% shortly after starting to kill things.

Reactivating second account soon, hoping for sale on upgrade to Battle for Azeroth.

Partfinder part 2? Coming to us Soon, real Soon.

Is there a 32 slot bag in the game? Drop from Naga near Seeker’s Vista in Stormsong Valley.

Grand Nagus

Starting the slow grind for 20,000 Sightless Eyes to finally buy the rat mount (6,500) so far.

Achievements:

Finally got Zandalari Cook, 150 skill points in the Zandalari cooking category.
Meat Marauder Owner of the Meat Wagon mount from the Warcraft III: Reforged promotion.
Finished some Island expeditions achievements:
Finished 3 Island Expeditions to finish up my weekly Azerite bar to get the new item
Mysterious Treasure Map, a item that starts a (random) lucrative treasure map mission on your mission table. Mine is Treasure Map: Under the Ruins, and it rewards some currency.
On other, non-Blizzard news, i’ve been playing some House Flipper. Really like the game, it’s casual and you don’t have to farm stuff, just renovate a house as a job for the owners or buy one, then renovate it, and sell it for a profit.

Addon(s) of the week: HandyNotes: WorldMapButton
This Addon was created to work with the "Default" Woldmap but i've tested with the following AddOns to work with:
  • Mapster
  • ElvUI
It also might work with all other Addons that does not significantly change the Worldmap itself.
