This week in world content
Did my Torghast, renown quests and the campaign unlock. Not really that interested so have partially forgotten what the campaign was even about.
Korthia is not intrusive, it's pretty, but everything is so... forgettable?
Except the Necrolord assault in the maw, which was so dull and buggy on Wutteät I skipped it on this character and fell behind on cinders.
This week in m+
The week started really slow and the other only known tank was off for the entire reset it looked like. So I just did some low pugs to get some score and better than normal raid vault stuff. However, on friday one tank appeared (Grongle) and on saturday one more (Muffin) started dabbling in keys. So got to play hunter more than expected.
Scoring runs of the week
Sanguine Depths +12 (+)
Since Halls fell from grace, this is now my favorite dungeon in the expansion. But had to do Muffin dirty to get him there :)
Spires of Ascension +11 (+)
Did not drop my weapon :(
Plaguefall +8 (++)
Did not get into a higher one in a pug, and the one run I did had none of my stuff.
Halls of Atonement +12 (+)
Perhaps not much of a proof screenshot, but hey, top dps and top on EH, so something.
Theater of Pain +11 (+)
My one "high" pug this week. Only thing I remember was hands despawning when I had rip soul on the liche boss.
Mists of Tirna Scithe +10 (+)
Actually, this was also a pug and my first Tormented run. Someone did the usual skip and was gonna open the buff mushroom area and bodypulled the first tormented mob that way, leading to clearing that pack we have skipped for half a year. Think killing that pack on tyrannical is a good idea now, but not sure there's enough CDs to do it on fortified weeks...
De Other Side +6 (++)
The Necrotic Wake +11 (+)
Did not have a screenshot of either of these.
Overall I ended up with 1191 rating with the new scoring system, which was a bit surprising. Not much left before being able to upgrade loot with valor to an ilevel over heroic raiding.
This week in raiding
Did not raid on this character.
This week in crafting
Reached rank 2 for crafting cloaks on Navarim. But crafting work is not really a prio during season opening.
This week in alt leveling
Release of season and getting progress on alt leveling does not work well together. Hollowfury, my alliance Death Knight, went through the maw, picked covenant (Venthyr) and picked up the barfilling meta quests. Not exactly sure if I am gonna do the old dungeon spam leveling or simply level through gathering.
Thought of the week
Before the patch, I was about worried about Torghast being something you had to rush. But it somehow ended up the opposite; it's essentially a 100% speedrun with weird bonus scoring. If you do any% speedrun you are never getting 4 stars it seems. The affixes and such weren't as annoying as feared, but considering we only have layer 10 this week, it might be a different experience on layer 12 in 2 weeks.
Lesson of the week
No screenshot, but I picked up a trick from somewhere for the Manastorms fight in De Other King's Rest. The tank can do do the bombs by spamclicking the area near the boss when Millicent does the cast. It was not foolproof but should save some healer/dps frustration.
