Northrend Safari
6Lately, I’ve been spending quite a bit of time in Northrend. Mainly to collect some of the pets I was missing and to defeat the Master Tamers for Northrend. In fact, I had a go at the Grand Master today but I didn’t have much luck with him. I should have it in the next day or two hopefully so I can write up the post for Cataclysm.
Today it finally snowed in Storm Peaks giving me a chance at getting the last pet I needed – the Arctic Fox Kit. I’d also like to go back and get a better quality Scourged Whelping since I’ve only seen one on live. At least it’s close to the Grand Master so it won’t be much of a detour.
I currently have three level 25 pets and even tried a few of the PVP battles the other day. Although I plan on levelling up a few of my other pets before I try it again. I’m loving all the Pandarian backdrops being used in the queued battles though and I don’t think I’ve seen the same one yet. At least I didn’t die when I started the match like in my first battle in the beta but when I came out of one a few nights ago, the Lost treasure I was camping had finally spawned so it worked out well :)
At the moment the Baby Ape and Jade Oozeling are still missing from my collection though.

Zen Master Archaeologist
8It should come as no surprise that Archaeology is probably my favourite profession in WoW, especially with all my Cymre Jones adventures. I admit that I took it kind of slow on live, only because I had experienced a lot of it on the beta so I was in no rush. But tonight I managed to max out the profession making me a Zen Master Archaeologist with a couple of other achievements – Documents of a Dark History and The Three Brew Fathers.
As I neared the 600 mark, I was excited to discover one of the rare items of Pandaria – the Umbrella of Chi-Ji. To complement the off-hand, Cool and I completed the Arena of Annihilation as the quest item gave us both a decent weapon upgrade.
I forgot how easy it is to get achievements in the scenarios :)
Oh and remember what I said I had in my farming patch yesterday? :D
I’ve never been so eager to harvest a crop before :P
