Jocy's New Plan for the Draenor Pathfinder Achievement

Jocy's New Plan for the Draenor Pathfinder Achievement

Note: Some of the information below has been mentioned in previous posts, but much of it was wrong or had to be fixed.

Assuming that the gods of WoW will allow it, Jocy is going to make a concerted effort to complete the Draenor Pathfinder achievement and earn the right to fly in Draenor. Understand that even after earning the achievement, a new patch is required to turn the feature on. There are five sub-achievements that Jocy has to complete:

(1) Explore Draenor. Mission: Visit every area of all five zones. Wild completed this achievement but it didn't carry over to Jocy. Jocy, on her own, completed Frostfire Ridge and had worked through much of Nagrand. As of this morning, though, Jocy has been given full credit for exploring all six zones: Frostfire Ridge, Gorgrond, Spires of Arak, Shadowmoon Valley, and Nagrand. I guess it took some time for the achievement to be recognized. One sub-achievement down, four to go.

(2) Securing Draenor. Mission: Complete twelve Assault quests. Wild had already lost patience by this time and turned the mess over to Jocy. She originally did two of the twelve quests, but was only given credit for one. The quest not given credit for was a daily she picked up at Vol'Mar. The quest she did get credit for was purchased (with 200 garrison resources) at her garrison from Sergeant Grimshaw. The quest is called a Missive, and all twelve Assault quests can be purchased in this way. I've given up trying to understand why the same quest can be completed by either method, but only one way (the Missive) grants the achievement. Jocy has since completed a second Missive and got credit, so that is the method Jocy is using to complete the rest. She can do the quests are her leisure and they can be done in any order.
Completed Assaults:
    "Assault on Stonefury Cliffs" done 7/26/15 (took a long time, a grind)
    "Assault on the Broken Precipice" done on 7/27/15 (18 min and done - ogres)

(3) Tanaan Diplomat. Mission: Earn Revered reputation with three factions. It appears that the faction grind must be done by a single character (ie, it isn't account bound). There are daily quests and other means to earn reputation for each faction. From what Jocy has seen so far, it's mostly endless killing.
    Voljin's Headhunters:        Friendly, 3700/6000 to Honored
    Order of the Awakened:    Neutral, 1500/3000 to Friendly
    The Saberstalkers:        Not yet encountered

(4) Loremaster of Draenor. Mission: Complete five Loremaster achievements. Four of them are already listed as completed. However, within each of the quest achievements there are individual quests that are incomplete, so I'm not sure how much work there is here yet.

(5) Expert Treasure Hunter. Mission: Discover 50 treasures of Draenor (excluding Tanaan Jungle). Tally: five so far, but I don't know how I got them. There may be more to this than the 50 treasures, too. There is a Jungle Treasure Hunter achievement for Tanaan that may or may not be included as part of the mission.

I will update progress as Jocy works through them.
