Five Garrisons Open For Business

Five Garrisons Open For Business

The World of Draenor opened on 13 November, 2014, fourteen long months ago. During that time five family members leveled from 90 to 100 and took on the challenge of the Tannan Jungle. Ever wondered how long it took for each of them to reach their goal? Check the chart below.


13 Nov 2014 - WoD Opened

20 Nov 2014 - Wild, Jocy, and Fist began leveling

18 Jan 2015 - Wild reached Level 100. It took 59 days.
    This is about Wild's expected leveling speed. Steady progress.

01 Jun 2015 - Jocy reached Level 100. It took 193 days (134 actual leveling days).
    If anyone should be embarrased, it's Jocy. Lazy ass. Kudo's are warranted for Jocy completing the mammoth Pathfinder Achievement, though.

20 Oct 2015 - Tiphaine reached Level 100 in - wait for it - SIX DAYS
    I had to check this twice to make sure. The six day rush to level 100 is correct.

09 Nov 2015 - Fist reached Level 100. It took 354 days (102 actual leveling days).
    Cut some slack for Fist, who went to the back of the bus while both Wild and Jocy were leveling. She started at the same time as Wild and Jocy, but got very little time until both Wild and Jocy were done. If you subtracted all the days that Fist had to wait on the other two, her leveling time drops down to 102 days.

11 Jan 2016 - JB reached Level 100.  It took - another wait for it - FOURTEEN DAYS
    JB, benefiting from all the help and support (not to mention a flying mount), swept through Dreanor and reached her goal in an amazing fourteen days.

Now that she's level 100, JB's plan is to gather garrison recources any way she can to improve her garrison. After talking things over with Tiphaine, JB built a Trading Post. A good omen is that the first item that her Trading Post offered for trade is crescent saberfish. Spend an afternoon fishing, turn in the meat, and get garrison resources in return! Of course, JB can't pick them up until later. In the meantime, JB is heading to Nagrand to hunt down treasures.

FINALLY, JB scrabbled together just enough garrison resources to get her Level 3 Great Hall. That opened the spigot. JB has the plans in hand to build Level 2 to the Trading Post, which cost only a little gold. With the last of her resources, she ordered a Storehouse. She's been carrying all her worldy goods in her bags. At last, she'll have somewhere to store her stuff. With only 16 garrison resources left, she had to call it a day.
