I’ve completed ALL dungeons in WoD! Happy for that. Got several upgrades. Also got Khadgar’s ilvl 640 ring. Go me, doing things I said I wasn’t, for the sake of actually doing things!
\nAnd also, not one time was I kicked out of the group for shit DPS! \ud83d\ude00 Now THAT is a shocker.<\/p>\n
I did the following;

Let’s get to it…<\/p>\n
The Everbloom<\/strong> UBRS v2<\/strong> . I’ve considered going on and starting my soloing runs, having completed all WoD dungeons. Other than that, I dunno. There is Ashran, and talk about how I can just kill NPCs to get the pieces I need for one of the five things, for the AH bot in your Trading Post. Yet, I’ll need to find a group that will… understand I fucking hate PvP so much and just want the pieces as they’re outrageous on the AH. How<\/em>, exactly? How is the Garrison going to play a role in future content? That’s a question only Blizzard can answer. I did have one theory, of some scenario of your Garrison versus Grommash, and it’s you with all of your followers. Perhaps, your Garrison gets badly damaged and you got to do a raid, maybe, against Grom and the entire might of the Iron Horde, while others go back to repair your Garrison. I’m really curious where Blizzard’s going to take this expansion. It’s like nothing seen before. I’ve completed ALL dungeons in WoD! Happy for that. Got several upgrades.

\nDifferent than I pictured it. Lots of plants. The tank was a pretty good “teacher”, showing how to avoid trash and stating to “remember this path come Heroic”. I really didn’t want to pass all that trash, but whatever.
\nHardest part was the final boss. I have skimmed through the dungeon journal before I even queued and somewhat knew the fight. The tank helped refresh my memory of what to do. Though we still wiped a few times, we got it done. At the end, the tank was all “our Guild is recruiting if you’re interested”, already knowing I was in a fake Guild.
\nTold him I wasn’t interested. He was OK with it, then stated how he had an alt to gear up, followed by “We can do the same for you too.”
\nI thought about it for a bit after I left the dungeon and got back to my Garrison, and wondered if I should consider hanging up being a soloer….. NAH! I’ve been fine for YEARS without a true Guild, and gotten my own gear. I don’t need help. I got my followers.<\/p>\n
\nDungeon design was similar to UBRS when it was soloable. Only major changes is The Rookery, getting to where you engage the waves of mobs, and the final boss. There’s a new wing for her. And.. ugh. Wiped four (4) times on her, to the point I actually had to go back to my Garrison to repair.
\nThen I end up forgetting how to get back to the dungeon.. *facepalm* I had thought the “pop back into dungeon” button was on the left, and it’s actually the icon that shows the status of the group. After help, I got in.
\nWe went though so many Healers too, some having never been to UBRS in their lives (even when it was Level 60).
\nAs I was saying, the last boss….. I think could nearly rival soloing Spine of Deathwing. Stage 2, is when it gets really chaotic. You got two dragons breathing fire on the platform. There’s not much room to maneuver, especially when the adds are pulling you with their chains into the fire, and the boss has this axestorm ability that targets a random player.
\nBut, finally got her down, and my last dungeon as well. Again, that was a very tough fight. Constantly on the move. Constantly having to check where the dragons are, adds, and the boss at all times with the GTFO addon alerting me when I’m fucking up.
\nThat addon and DBM have been very awesome for me with their alerts. Telling me to move when an AoE attack is about to hit, and stuff like that.<\/p>\n
\nMy total ilvl increase, went from 600 to 608. Still not ‘qualified’ to do Heroics yet (even though I wanna wait ’till I’m 630-640 before I do).
\nSo, what is there left to do? I still got my Stables dailies, and follower missions. I’m still getting missions to give me gear if they succeed. Not to mention I now have a second Level 100 follower (and soon a 3rd if the mission is successful tomorrow morning).<\/p>\n
\nAll I do know, is I feel this expansion has ‘changed’ me. I don’t know what to<\/em>, exactly. Just, the vibe of the expansion. Before, my rest after the main content was done, was in my house. Now, it’s a Garrison. A Garrison I have to lead my followers against the Iron Horde.<\/p>\n
\nSomewhere, you’re going to lose your Garrison. That would be the best way for Blizzard to not have to worry about making Garrison content for the next expansion.
\nYet there’s also the Burning Legion. Can’t forget about them, as they’re the ones that made TBC possible. They aren’t going to like not seeing the Orcs being their slaves.<\/p>\n
\nAnyway, I’m also considering getting a Hunter addon to help me achieve good DPS. I’ve been kind of sloppy in my dungeon runs, using my old soloing technique. Yet that’s not going to work for Heroics, nor even Raiding. Why I need something to help me that isn’t another person. Besides, even Bellular uses something that helps him with DPS.
\nThere’s also my Worgen Warlock, and Tauren Hunter to get to 100. Though their purpose is pretty bleak in my mind, when they both hit Level 100 (yet it’s been like that in the past). Since Garrisons aren’t account-bound, when they hit 100, I’ll probably just leave them alone like I did my Rogue. Except my Rogue has a point; lockbox unlocker. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
