A couple weeks ago, I completed one of the items on my bucket list to complete before Cataclysm ships. I got the Loremaster achievement on my Druid (this means I completed a crazy number of quests across all of Azeroth). Along the way, I also got the Seeker title (for completing 3,000 quests).

Along the way, I managed to collect a harem.

Mavdyn's Harem

Well, I also had a bear I tamed following me around, but I thought that might be a bit strange to mix types in the screenshot.

One more item for the Cataclysm Bucket List.

I win

And here was the final dps. (I’m actually a bit annoyed that my dps was so low.)

Hrm, I think I shoulda done better

Though our Warlock was taking the fight off, just lounging around (she died early on, a couple times).

I’m probably crazy…ok, so, I know I’m crazy. I’ve been playing since 2006 (I think), and the 9 months or so before a major update have been, well, boring. Warcraft is mostly a game of grinding–doing the same thing over and over again, whether it be raiding, leveling characters, gaining reputation and so on.

So in the months leading up to the release of Cataclysm, I’ve come up with an informal bucket list.

• Completed: Get both of my level 80 characters geared for end-game raiding
• Completed: Complete the Loremaster achievement and get the Seeker title on my Druid.
• On my Druid, achive exalted reputations with:
  • Cenarion Expedition
  • Frenzyheart (I really should have done this a long time ago)
  • Argent Dawn (this should be relatively easy, I’ve already done quite a bit of the grind, and I haven’t completed the 3 dungeons that award rep for Argent Dawn)

I mean to post something similar to this when I got this pet on my other Warcraft character. But better late than never.

Aw, it's my own...venomhide raptor...how cute!

I wish this were true, it’d be easier to just stop.
