Playing Catch-Up

Keya took advantage of the last of her research upgrades (at least for now). She used the last of her AP to slot two ranks of Embrace the Pain. Her next rank will cost 105K AP.

Keya's world quests are averaging 14K AP apiece and the Broken Shores can barely deliver 2-3 quests a day. It will take 8-9 quests to get enough AP for the next rank, and Keya knows the next rank after that will be even more expensive. Keya is getting further behind, with each rank taking longer to collect.

Saturday night Keya checked the Broken Shores and there were no quests available. None, other than the raid. Too bad she can't use the Fel Cannon on an elite quest.

Keya has nine ranks to go. My guess is that it will take two million (2,000,000) more artifact power to reach that goal. I don't even want to compute how many world quests that will take at 14K AP per quest (although Erik will probably tell me anyway  :P ).

Chaitee has been pretty quiet all week. Bags are not selling well. In fact, not much is selling, period. Just one of those things. Chaitee continues to work, but she is mostly just treading water.

Sista tried her luck on the AH without getting advice from Chaitee. She did well with the purchase of a new cloak and belt, both nice upgrades. She fell into the trap many players fall into with the necklace she bought. It was a Mage Class only item. She may luck out, anyway. She bought the thing for 4300 gold, but it's the only mage necklace for sale. Sista bumped up the price to 5198 gold and put it back on the AH. Maybe she'll get lucky. If she isn't lucky, Chaitee isn't going to pay for it. The reality of gear purchases on the AH boils down to rings, trinkets, and slightly lesser necklaces. Those sell at very high prices even on low level items.

I ran across an article from 2016 talking about how great patch 7.2 will be. We know now that it pretty much sucks and is already boring boring boring. The tease is that patch 7.3 will be Argus (the world of the Draenei). What I gleaned from it is that we will do Legion all over again, only this time on Draenei. The planet is the main base of Legion power and presumably the seat of Sargeras himself.

That isn't exactly getting me excited. Just the opposite. Couldn't we take a break from the Legion and do something NEW for a change?
