Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
I'm sure we'll have one for Legion, but I'm curious to see if people are planning to set up for things pre-patch as well. What are your plans for the day the servers go down? What are your plans for the moment/day the servers go back up in the new, shiny (demon-invaded) world?
For myself, before the world goes down, I intend to first take most of my characters out of their Garrisons *and* out of Stormwind. That way, the massive influx of people who are logging in in their garrisons and Stormwind, and breaking (or at least super-stressing) those world servers may not affect me. As long as my characters are in a city where there is access to a bank, I'll be fine. *Especially* my main bank character; I already know where he's going to be put to make sure I get as much chance as possible to be in a non-crashing location.
When the servers come up, I'll be logging in my characters one by one and adding transmog stuff, not to mention emptying their banks while I'm at it. My disenchanters will be busy dissing everything for the goodies, while everyone else will be hitting up vendors; I'll only be keeping stuff that I have an attachment to (which, admittedly, is quite a few things).
My only other plan is alternating between getting enough shards for the unique stuff, and grinding dungeons for some more sets.
Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
Then I'll try some fights I know fairly well, to see how much worse my damage/survivability is on each of my characters.
Then invasion event.
Then a gnome hunter.

2. Set up my mains (Warrior and Hunter) in all 3 specs
3. Do Broken Shores on all 12 characters
4. Farm the invasions for all transmog/pets
Optional;
1. Tame a Arrachea, if it spawns.
2. Cry because I have no idea what to use my 100 boost on

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
After that, probably go around taming pets.
I no longer main my Hunter; Legion changes have unfortunately put me off from the class. However I still plan to stick around for the community here ^^

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
Same as WerebearGuy I'll be getting on all my 100's and cleaning out their bags /bank /vault yadda yadda yadda. So so much gear to log.
Maybe tame stuff.
Have not decided beyond all the mog.

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
My first stop will be picking up Cadmus, my yak from the MoP beta, in the Valley of the Four Winds. He's the only tame I have planned immediately.
Then I'll start going through all my transmog gear and clearing out bag space. Whether I only do that on Kalli before diving into the Legion stuff or if I do the alts too is up in the air. (Probably Kalli, Legion, then alts. I have way too many alts to do that up front. But who knows? I might feel organized.)
Beyond that, I'm basically already set to go. I've got my preferred talent choices picked out on the PTR, so I can be up and running in BM spec immediately. I'll probably want to mess with the others a bit more on live before settling in, but that's not a big deal, since I know what spec/pets I'm sticking with. (It's so nice not being practical for a change!)

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
I may also run a few dungeons or do quests for transmog. And try to level my undead hunter with engineering.
I may make a gnome/goblin hunter the day of the patch. I probably won't log into any of my lv80+ alts the day of the patch just to avoid glitches.
After that I'll be running around for the new tameables I want, fussing with my action bars, and doing the invasion stuff for loot.
A week or two after the wardrobe is in, I'll start deleting alts I don't want any more but kept around due to them having bop holiday gear. I'll also start clearing out the gear I no longer need to save for transmog. Not doing that right away incase it glitches.
Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
Same for me, I'm ready to go for my BM come live. I also already farmed some decent polearms for my alt-spec SV Hunter.Kalliope wrote: Beyond that, I'm basically already set to go.

My last plans will be making sure I finish my questing achievements on old-world stuff, so I can make sure to get my armor that may have been long-since deleted. Also to clear out my regent bank, on main and alts, and get rid of any materials I won't need for leveling (Keeping some stuff tho because there's always those higher end recipes that are still yellow/orange at the beginning of the expansion).
On patch day, I'm going to first do a log in spam, to make sure all my transmog looks are in place, then make sure to vendor everything once they're in. It'll be the first time since I've started WoW that I'll actually have bank space. XD

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
Bank and bag cleaning.
Then, see about making my demon hunter and gnome hunter characters.
Assess damage to my BM hunter main and assess damage to my Shammy Healer.

Just hand out panacea to everyone so you can go home early.zedxrgal wrote:Sadly I'll probably be working on 08/30. Hospital doesn't shut down just cause it's expansion launch.
Be wary, I don't know if they've worked out the kinks, or intended it, but deleting the only source character for an xmog might remove the item from your tab.mpd_84 wrote: A week or two after the wardrobe is in, I'll start deleting alts I don't want any more but kept around due to them having bop holiday gear.

Also, I remembered I have to do pet farming pre-prepatch. I still am missing the seaborne spore from Tanaan, and could stand to have more pet charms. Before the Pandaren Water Spirit combo is nerfed.

2. Logging into all my 35+ characters for Xmog appearences and Action Bars.
3. Try Legion Invasions out, may or may not do them tbh.
4. Create my Puntress
5. Level my Tauren Surv Hunter until Demon Hunters are playable. If I get her to 100 before Legion, I'll level my new Gnome.
6. Felf it up
Until then, playing my main Beast Mastery hunter a lot before the spec changes.

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
But on the day of the patch, like most of you I'll be logging into all of my characters to add all of the new transmog appearances, toys and fix up their action bars, then go try out invasions. I already main MM for raiding, so I'll probably stick with that due to the sorry state of BM but we'll see.

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
On actual patch day I'll probably start by making my Gnome hunter, the survival hunter and possibly a Demon Hunter if they are available for pre-orders already. Then it's off to sort everyone's banks to get rid of the transmog things I've been hoarding for a while now. I hate having cluttered storage so it will be a real relief to get them out. Next I'll tame new pets on appropriate hunters and finally I'll go through each character and probably run an instance or two on all of them to get a feel for the new playstyles.

Re: Last And First Thing On Pre-Patch Day Plans?
I must follow the crowd and lemming up and move all my girls out of their garrisons, major cities etc.
THEN I'll muck with trasmog stuffs
I'll probably stop resisting the temptation to make my gnome huntress and boost her.
Shoot. I need to start running old dungeons /raids and get whatever remaining gear for mog sets.
I am not going to much with demon hunters till the hype dies down a little.
Aren't we getting one new character slot too?
