Elkagorasa is Closing in on 500!

-
6 4 years ago when I started this blog to track my warlocks "Adventures in Azeroth", I never really thought it would have lasted this long. It was a passing fancy to work on while at the office. Sort of a mental not of things to do when I get back online. As of this post, I'll be a short 4 posts away from 500 blog posts. 


Ok, to be honest, it's not like I can came to compete against my warlock compatriots who love to write. I have been know to do the 10 word post that includes an interesting screenshot. All I have to say is 'thanks for coming back'. 

Love the Transmorg? Tired of the turban, I wanted a "gentleman's" look
to go with my fancy hat! (too cheap poor to buy the top hat)
On other 500 news, Elk now has a 499 gear score. Not 'bad' considering back in January, Elk was sporting 460s. While out working on the new 'Battlefield: Barrens', I picked up an interesting random drop, Latent Kor'kron Spaulders. Combine this drop with the Radical Mojo from the new 'weekly', and I'll get something mildly (i483 vs i489?) better than the warlock tier set that I have already. I found a random group was killing commanders. No need to invite, just whack at it how ever you got. When done, you'll be able to loot somewhere around 30-40 of all 4 resources your are gathering. I had all 150 within an hour (skipped raid invite when it popped). I now have a Perjurious Mantle of Unerring.   I'd hoped they would be more like a 500 level item! Make the 'weekly' work worth breaking my set bonus for.

So, can I gain only one ilevel in 4 posts? We'll see.. AMR suggested upgrades (#2 would add .5 an ilevel) could be small enough to push me over to 500.!

    Another way to obtain a Deathmist look-alike set!

    3 upgrades (2x main hand, 1x trinket2) later and still haven't hit 500 ilevel. My calculations say I should be at 499.875 so?? Guess it's not an average, but absolute. Looks like I need 1 more upgrade should push me over the 500 limit.

Legion's Mythic+ Dungeon Final Impressions

Yesterday, Ythisens  posted a question on the WoW forums asking for final impressions on the Mythic+ dungeons. With Legion coming to a close we thought we might try something a little different and collect some specific feedback on things. While we normally are reading tons of posts you guys make and sharing the details internally, we want to try collecting focused feedback to ensure your opinions are being heard. We're still doing our usual methods but want to see if this can be something we use going forward.    For the first one we're going to try one focused on Mythic+! We want to hear everything you guys have on this feature we introduced in Legion. What you think it does well, what you think it doesn't, ways you'd like to see it go, how did it work throughout the course of the expansion, etc.    Also a friendly note that just because you see it here doesn't mean it will be changed or added - and this topic is not an indication of future feature developm

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
