Tedrah
Did flex raid Friday night with Unbroken guild on Sisters of Elune. We downed the first two bosses and made good progress on third.  I got new boots - yay loot. Saturday I tried the proving grounds. Managed to complete the bronze level - took two tries.  Silver is definitely more challenging. I’m not a very good player so going to take some practice.

Control-Alt-WoW Gang!
Hail and well met!
So, the Timeless Isle.  Well, I have to say, they’ve done a very interesting job with this one.  I think the quests are …ok. The discovery type quests aren’t as fun as I thought they might be, to my point of view.  Now that we’re into the second week, we get to recycle some of the quests from the first week and kill more stuff for stones and such.  Plus, there’s that Rep Grind with the Emporeror…5 ot 6 or 11 rep points a mob kill. Wow.  It did go much, much faster in a group of five random folks from AIE.  It was uplifting, by the way, to get a random invite from a guildie just because of the tag over my head.  (The funny part was, at one point there were two AIE groups in the area working, and it was one of those ‘Slay them all, let Ordos sort them out..” moments.) I’m also very pleasantly surprised to see Clan of Darkness folks here and there on the Isle!
What has the Isle done for me? Well, in the week before the patch dropped, I actually got a second character to 90.  So, now both Wolfbrother my Paladin and Eranth my Hunter are 90. I ground out the most of the last 5 levels by dungeon, and doing quests while waiting for a dungeon queue.  That said, Wolfbrother went to the isle first, collected a bunch of Timeless Mail armor pieces and sent them to Eranth.  So, Eranth hit the ground running with all purples save his rings, trinkets, neck piece and weapon.  Since then I’ve been collecting lots of leather with Eranth, picked up a ring and neck piece, and upgraded my weapon to the one you can buy with Timeless Coins.  That gets him to about iLevel 488.  About the only thing I see useful for Wolfbrother on the Timeless Isle is for him to collect Timeless Coins so he can get enough to buy those curio’s that upgrade a Timeless Isle armor piece to 533, since most of his gear is in the 502 or 522 range.
I’ve noticed that a number of those wonderful chests that you find about the isle (not the Moss Covered ones), will respawn for you each week to re-loot!  I don’t think I’ve seen any gear from them, but there’s gold, coins and so forth.
I anticipate that the leather market will make a huge decline, since there’s more leather available for skinners there than should be legal.  I was surprised to wake up to find my mailbox full of gold from leather auctions that sold.
There was some hope that we’d see some interesting patterns drop for leatherworkers on the Isle, but I have yet to see one.  Being a fresh 90 still, I don’t have much more than PvP blues that I can make as far as leatherworking gear.  I hope that changes sooner than later.
I’m a bit amazed by how well the phasing is working on the Isle.  The zones that you’re phasing in can’t be more than 50 or 60 meters/yards across.  Mounted up  you can see a bit of lag in the zoning if the Isle is busy on the server(s) you’re on have lots of folks in the zones you’re moving through.  However, the lag hasn’t ever been enough to really cause a problem.
With all these things going on with the Timeless Isle, I still have to work Eranth through the Legendary quests with the Black Prince! I need to queue for more LFR, I suppose.
I’m looking forward to the show.
“Be well…”
