2 Weeks Remain and Still So Much Ground to Cover

-
Is that a chicken in his right hand? 
Over the last few weeks, I have been actively trying to recruit some of my fellow co-workers (from the Horde Guild) to come back to Warcraft. The problem being that there's just so many, many options out there that they aren't taking the bait. They're playing Shadow of Mordor, they're playing Borderlands Pre-Sequel, they're playing anything that doesn't require a subscription... I've seen where Blizzard has waived some game time to attempt to get them hooked again, but for some it's just not enough. With only a few active players in guild it's going to be a quite expansion.

On my recently minted Alliance druid, I've reached level 72. Since reaching Wrath, she's started questing in Borean Tundra and ran the same dungeon three times, Utgarde Keep. I've been trying to make sure I keep the Wickerman +10% XP bonus up for a total bonus of 55%  (45% gear - head 10%, shoulders 10%, back 5%, chest 10%, legs 10%). I equipped the Stormwind tabard so that I am exalted with them. This means only 4000 gold and I can train into Artisan flying (and swift flight form).

This gold shortage, got me rethinking my auction house strategies. I've even started watching Elvine, but I am not sure his strategy works for me. First off, there appears to be a transmog'r already on the AH. Lots of variety of various helms available. There could be a niche for me to start making gold, but it will take a lot of market research.. I know in Wrath, I made my big bucks selling gem transmutes on my alchemist, but this druid is alliance (not horde) and on a different realm. (/sigh) More questing for me.

Hallow's End, curse you. I've tried 8 days, 3 times each, to get the Horseman's mount. If I give up on hoping it will it drop, will it drop?

I have not got back into the revamped UBRS again since the first try. The warlock has been in one or two times more because DPS is just so darn easy. Plus with the cloak, I have lots of AOE damage. Salt's has a great discussion on talents and I should really look into redoing them. I really would like some nice gear upgrades on all my alts. Here's Salt's UBRS video.

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
