Keya Gets First Look at Argus

Keya Gets First Look at Argus

Keya took the portal to Stormwind harbor, boarded the waiting boat, and was soon on her way across the ether to the Legion world of Argus. For those who want to be picky, Argus looks a whole lot like the Broken Shores. Battles were already in progress, coached by various characters. The killing started shortly after that. Keya wondered if the new demons were any tougher than the old ones. Her assessment is that they are a bit tougher, but then Keya picked up some upgrades that evened the field. She took down five special elites, all solo. This early in the day there wasn't many players out. More on the weapon upgrades later.

Keya was kept very busy for nearly an hour before she took a break. In fact, a break was built into the flow of the battles, which Keya appreciated. It gave her time to explore her ship, called Vindicaar, and locate a Dalaran Portal should she need to return to Dalaran. A weird looking portal also appeared at Dalaran that almost tries to bite you when you port back to Argus.

Keya, meanwhile, made a stupendous find! Her third relic is now ACTIVE! Keya slotted the third relic as soon as she got back to Mardum. She still isn't sure if she can use her AP (now over 3.5 billion) to upgrade or buy additional traits, which is unchanged at 52. But she was encouraged that her 40 reseach Artifact knowledge (AK) shows 41 AK, which I hope means that every week she'll get a new AK as a result of the new patch. It was stuck at 40 until today.

Her blades are now at i893, up from i884. Her overall gear score is now at i895, up from i889. She has yet to find an enemy, or groups of enemies, who can defeat her. But Keya is sure that somewhere out there are things that can kill her.

So, some things have been fixed because of the patch, but there are still issues. Keya is focusing on the positives. She is really thrilled with the patch so far.

One area she knows is not fixed is Order Advancement. Maybe some day she'll find a way to finish the Champions of Legionfall achievement. Keya also has to keep up her work on Pathfinder while also finding time to go deeper into the Legion homeworld. And she can't forget to keep up with her Missions.

Around 11pm Tuesday night Keya ran out of quests on Argus. She has one open quest called "Essence of the Light Mother" but no clue what to do with it.

OOPs!  Keya was wandering about on the Mardum and opened her warblades and rank structure to admire her THREE relics. She's tired and prone to giggles this late and still has bits of blood and gore smattered about. She was running one hand along the lines and ranks she has gathered. She playfully tapped the Concordance. There was a little "woosh." Her 3.5 billion was suddenly only 2.8 billion. Keya's jaw dropped. Her ranks went from 52 to 53. The dang thing works. Now she'll be off to Icy Veins to see what ranks she should be getting.

Keya hasn't let Sista know yet that there is a new cloth now available, lightweave cloth. Not sure what its use is, but Sista will want some action the moment she finds out about it. Keya also got a new crafting item, fiendish leather. Privately, Keya shudders at the thought of Sista going onto the battlefield. You think Keya is a slow fighter, Sista is molasses in winter slow.
