Shared Topic: So, your raid got canceled?

-
OK, I just got the kids to bed, wife tucked away and logon to get a few late night hours of Warcraft in. Based on all my plans, there's this raid progression tonight and I am hoping to continue filling my spot. Darn, well, technical issues aside, I finally logon and well they didn't wait. Too many open seats and they've decided to fill my spot with an actually guildie (who probably didn't show last night because he didn't really care to play the first few bosses anyway).

Now what to do? (also what I do when no raid is planned).
  1. Queue up for the Random Dungeon
  2. Take a run around Dalaran, see what quirky people are on tonight
  3. Stop by Marcia Chase, pickup fishing daily (if it's not that dreaded ghost fish).
  4. Do Fishing daily, often get back before spot in random dungeon.
  5. Turn in fishing quest, port to orgrimmar to check out auction house.
  6. Buy up all the underperforming items and flip my gems.
  7. Accept dungeon invite, then go back in front of queue as someone went afk
  8. Hearth back to Dalaran, wish I could queue for daily pvp at same time.
  9. Accept another dungeon invite, run CoS in record 15 minutes, with another bronze proto drake drops, and no one takes, cuz we all have one.
  10. Port out, queue for daily pvp.
  11. See that Wintergrasp is a few minutes away, fly to portal and wait for fun.
  12. Do VOA if you win...
  13. Lose another round of PVP, attempting to get those coveted arena tokens.
  14. Log off around midnight, and go watch the Final, Cataclysmic Season of Lost.
Individual results may differ.

Profession Opinions

IMHO, spend your first points for herbalism or mining in 40 into [ botany ] or 35 into [ mining process ] so that you can gather while mounted.  I hate that the skinning trainer is standing immediately behind one of the leatherworking tables. I am constantly clicking on them.  I 100% agree with everyone that says the fishing profession needs a hat slot. We may need a secondary equipment slot for toons with a fishing ring.  I wish the crafting orders system worked 'better'. To complete "# of (profession) crafting orders" quests, my default is to go to my bank toon, and order low-level items. Gimme 3 bolts of cloth, or 2 handfuls of bolts, or 3 'profession equipment'. I sort of wish that when I specify a personal order, I could see their available recipes. Oh, look my hunter can make ___, lets's order 3 of those? My bank toon could order profitable items, not just garbage fillers.  Leveling engineering is dreadful. Creating 1 middle-level item, requires 1 ra...

My first Dragon Flight update. Tuesday routine:  Check Great vault for my M+ item.   Pick up Catalyst quest  Pick up fill-the-bar 'aiding the accord' quest. Pick up weekly event quest (as long as not pvp, or pet battles).  Pick up profession quests (there are about 4), 2 from trainers, 2 from the Artisan's Consortium(?) Pick up and turn in mettle quest. Pick up 2 rep relic quests (turn in titan relics while there) Pick up the elemental shard quest Find and kill the world boss See if Storm's event is going on (this week world boss is in the primal future so 2-fer). Check timing on the 'fill-the-bar' community item (hunt this week), while flying out to say hi to Sabellian (already buds with Wrathion). Farm key fragments for 1 key. Turn in any totems, titan relics, etc that were saved from last week. Immediately closing that fill-the-bar quest. Repeat with alt, and the catalyst quest will complete.  Refresh a contract for free 100 rep!? None of my characters a...
