What We've Been Doing:



Aprillian



Constraxx



Eye of N’zoth, on my forehead, rid of in an hour and a half, via Brother Pike.


Did an expedition to the Shrine of Storms to get  a uber-Blessed thing, which is soulbound to make a hammer which i’m not even sure I can ever manage, it sounds like a legendary thing.


Daprishnah is now 111 thanks to a few Legion invasions, he has only 1 full transmog Set, the Warsong Outrider Garb from Draenor.


An incursion somehow dropped a small weapon which turned out to be best in slot. :D
Constraxx : the axeman!


Several Levels on my Discipline priest, with encouragement toward push to the finish, doubled my levels in a short time. (Pandaren)  Plenty of Archeology from all expansions, consumed, still not maxed out. Several shouts related to StarCraft and emperor Palpatine.


Cooking is at 150 has maxed. Two sailor pies for the tortollans, 150 gold for some small briny flesh, was not paying 39 gold a  piece for briny flesh. NO idea how to work the AH anymore.


Working hard on Inscription and Herbalism.


Grand Nagus

Heritage Armor for Lightforged 113
Blacksmithing skilling continues
Challenge Greenman Forsaken Rogue lvl 17 atm
Stress Test just before showtime Forsaken Warlock
Forsaken Rogue, Troll Hunter.
Hunter difference classic vs retail Troll +damage vs beasts and LV skinning
And bow skill bonus, perfect hunter for that profession, imo.

Hello everyone!


Hope you all had a great holiday break in the US.  It was really nice having the extra day off, and I did something that I haven't done in a very very long time:  I was up all night gaming! When the sun started to rise around 5am I figured I probably should go to bed. Good times!  I haven't done something like that in years.


Today's Blast from the Past is from episode 372.  Enjoy!

Hello CAW!

The end of the school year approaches.  Students are checking out, teachers wish they could check out, and it feels like I care a lot more about my students' grades than they do themselves.  Arrg!!

My WoW time was spent doing more odds and ends.  Played around with the Argent Tournament, did some leveling with another alt in Hillsbrad Foothills, and did a handful of current content quests.  

Here's today's Blast from the Past all the way from episode 371.  Enjoy!

Hello everyone,

Nothing too exciting on my end this week, just a playing a little of this and that, trying to find which character will be the next shiny object to grab my attention.  This week's blast from the past is from episode 370 titled "Honor points - WTF?". Enjoy!

Each week GrandNagus takes a closer look at some of the most useful World of Warcraft addons out there.
Addon of the week: WorldBoss Timers

WorldBossTimers

This addon creates timers for world bosses that drop rare mounts. It provides exact spawn timers when possible, otherwise approximate timers with min-max times.
Features
- Persistent countdown timers
- Shareable timers
- Timer announcing
- Alerts on aggro and on (or before) spawn:
   - Sound alert
   - Flash game icon
Timers
There are two ways to create timers:
1. Witness a kill
2. Enable "Request mode" and just go close to someone with a timer, and you will get it automatically
All timers are account wide. However, to reduce the risk of sharing incorrect data, the sharing is sometimes disabled (e.g. if you are in a group, which means that you might have switched servers).
