5.2 things to do..

Unread post by Derax »

When new patches come out there is usually a lot of content I forget stuff or miss stuff, So I was wondering if anyone can help clarify some stuff I should be doing so far it consists of.

1.) Went to isle of Giants, Got new Dino pet.
(Is there anything I should of done there? What is this place actually for?)

2.) Thunder land doing the dailies there which as far as I know consists of:
* Getting on the boat - Picking up the dailies.
* Porting to the bones area and getting/completing those.
* Doing the other 2 daily quest hub areas which consist of 4 dailies each.
(Is there anything else on those dailies I am missing quest mobs that drop quest items a hub I am missing)?

3.) Setting a champion faction so my heroic, scenario and raid count towards rep for it.
4.) Buy the farm.
5.) Get all 3 spirit beasts.
6.) Do ToT raid.

Am I missing anything else minus PvP stuff?

Grind the dinos. The bones they drop can be turned into to a dead troll in the cave. For varying amounts of bones, he gives you gold, motes of harmony, pets or a unique mount. The dinos by themselves can drop an egg that hatches (possibly) into another mount.

This ^ But it should probably mentioned that the mount requires 9,999 bones to buy and the dinos pack a punch. Also, it looks like the egg has a good drop chance off of the adults direhorns so I highly recommend finding a farming buddy to help speed things up because the mobs here are a pain in the butt.
This is literally the island of endless farming- it has no other purpose other than making you farm elites for vanity items.

On a side note, I recommend finding a hunting party so you can kill some Warbringers. They spawn all over panda land and they have a chance to drop 1 in three mounts. They also drop blue and green bags of crafting mats and 3-4 different rep tokens that are bound to account and grant 1k rep upon use. Nice way to get alts through the annoying grind. They have a short respawn and there is always a few players teaming up to take them down. (It is possible for some classes to solo as well.)
