I’ve been saying that I didn’t want to post a written “to do” list until Warlords was at least in beta. Now, even though there’s still no sign of a beta, we have that “on or before 20 December but hopefully by sometime in the fall” pseudo-release date. Furthermore, I’m currently applying for full-time academic jobs. Should I actually get one of them, the job itself would probably begin in late August, and I’d be busy with the associated moving during late July or early August. So I suppose I might as well make a small list of the things I most want to accomplish in WoW before the end of summer.
Alts still needing to reach 90
Warlock (currently 62)
Rogue (currently 46)
Pet Battling Monk (currently 82)
Any Alliance character — doesn’t have to be the Dwarf Shaman (currently 27), anymore, because I want to play her all the way through several zones for the stories, and either the Human Mage (currently 86) or the Draenei Mage (currently 73) could more easily rush to 90 in LFD
Male Tauren Warrior (currently 22) to 60+, will then be boosted to 90
Things to do at 90
Get shinies for Transmogrification from Mists LFR for Paladin, Priest, Pet Battling Monk
Complete Kamalia’s Pandaren, Mogu, and Mantid archaeology museums
Systematically queue for Scenarios until I have run each Scenario at least once — I don’t run Scenarios very often, and there are a few that I have not yet seen
Start Warlock on Green Fire quest chain
Level enough pets of each family to be able to obtain the Tamer title and the safari hat and do the Celestial Tournament.
Level Male Tauren Warrior’s Engineering at least high enough to specialize as Gnomish and acquire necessary recipes & mats for specialization quest before using free boost to 90
At least you’re organized with yours – I have so many alts that I hate to think of how this is going to work out, plus, adding the boosted characters has really filled my plate worse than Thanksgiving.
Well, sort-of organized, at any rate. Other characters have a tendency to disrupt my best-laid plans 😛
Good luck with getting all of your alts sorted!
I have a nebulous swarm of random things I want to do before WoD, but every time I try to give it form, I get overwhelmed and just go back to whatever I was doing! lol. Great list; here’s to getting all the things accomplished!
TY! Well, I often end up doing whatever is at the top of my head, despite my list 😛
You make an excellent point about factoring in what’s coming up in the future as a reason for whipping up a ‘to-do’ list. I still need to decide on a main and get her ready, preferably before WildStar releases and we move house. Oh, and there’s the whole having a baby in August thing to consider as well!
Yep, looks like I’ll be adding a “WoW to-do list” to my, err, to do list. Thanks 😛
Yeah, I probably wouldn’t have published my WoW “to do” list — which I have had in my head ever since Blizzcon — until the beta actually HAD started without the Real Life factors that appeared to compress the amount of time in which I will be free to play WoW whenever I want.
Good luck with your move and your new baby! 😀
