Achievements and Raids and World Events, Oh Boy!
Big Bear Butt Blogger — ... explorers, I gots Loremasters doing quests like crazy… it goes on and on. It does keep them out of trouble, though. The best part? Everybody is so keen on Achievement hunting, that I can herb and mine ore whenever I feel like it, and get a whopping amount. Considering peeps were so bored this time last week that no herbs or ore were ever to be found… WOOT! Score! I am personally pursuing two Achievements. I am going for 50 Pets to get my own cute little Skunk. As of last night, when I logged out I had ...

A Wee Bit Too Much? - Patch 3.0.2 Personal Roundup
/hug — ... Of course, 7gold+ seems a bit steep for getting someone to tie your hair back! Achievements Stuff Whilst I will write an extended post on my thoughts on later, I was quite pleased to have achieved one particular goal not long after the patch: Ambassador of the Alliance Of course, I’m equally saddened that I didn’t quite get: Shop Smart, Shop Pet Smart 48 pets… and probably hours ...

Five Things I Love About 3.0.2
Banana Shoulders — ... I do have a couple of quibbles about the system - mainly that there’s not enough distinction between meaningless achievements (like using a toothpick) and achievements that require some effort (like reading every book on the ‘Well Read‘ list, which requires a couple of instance runs to finish). However, I love the system and I love its rewards - I’ve already scored myself the Ambassador, Diplomat, and Guardian of Cenarius titles, and Stinker the Skunk pet. Now There’s A Name I’ve Not Heard ...

Plenty of money to be made on the Neutral Auction Houses
Armaggedon's coming — ... Plenty of money to be made on the Neutral Auction Houses Only got 40 silver to your name? Want to convert that to a quick 10, 20, 30 gold? Buy moths, cats, rabbits, snakes or any other faction specific non-combat pets, hit the neutral AH and help the war effort and your back pocket by gouging the enemies desire to get a pet skunk via the Shop Smart, Shop Pet…Smart achievement.

Minipet Mania
Aspect of the Hare — ... Then I realized that when you get 50 minipets, they not only send you an adorable skunk in the mail, but you also get an achievement that includes wording which is suspiciously similar to my current ...

Five old world vanity pets you may have missed
WoW.com — ... , and even an achievement series especially for us. If you're new to the world of pet collecting, or have just dabbled in it so far though, you may be struggling a bit to get those last few pets for the achievement. In the spirit of helping out my fellow pet enthusiasts, here's a few rarer or lesser known old world pets that you might have overlooked, especially if you started the game after Burning Crusade. ...

Forget Level 80.
Aspect of the Hare — This one’s better: Heck yeah. D’awww! And for the not-so-minipet-inclined, have a screenshot that was taken in live game with no graphical glitches or anything. It’s an actual place and camera angle you can get– fairly easily, too, if you have an “I wonder if you can go in there” type of mind. Any crazy guesses or need me to drop hints? =P (Oh, and in case anyone’s curious… I’ll be dinging 79 tomorrow. Go go Aspect of the ...

The Top 5 Achievements I Will Be Getting (Plus One)
DrainingSouls.net — ... XP, and the more quests you have left over at 80 the more you can do just to get the gold reward. Plus I’m really enjoying the story lines so far in WotLK. I’ve cleared out Howling Fjord (beautiful zone!), Borean Tundra (loved the DEHTA quests) and I’m currently about halfway through Dragonblight. At this rate, I’ll probably ding 80 in Grizzly Hills, or Zul’drak at the latest. That will give me 3 or 4 whole zones for pure profit. Shop Smart, Shop Pet-Smart I’ve always enjoyed ...

Back from my holidays
Chain Trap - Musings of a Survival Hunter — ... me to focus on some of the more solo-friendly aspects of the game, and achievements (and indeed Achievements) have been coming pretty thick and fast. Some highlights follow: I found my last couple of magic books, and am now the proud owner of a Kirin Tor Familiar. This put me at 49 non-combat pets, so a jaunt to Hinterlands to find the last distress beacon, followed by a quick escort,  netted me an OOX of my own, and in turn allowed the completion of Shop Smart, Shop Pet… Smart. Some work for the Oracles netted me revered, a new ...

WoW.com — ... If you're a serious noncombat pet collector, by now you probably have the Shop Smart, Shop Pet...Smart achievement, which rewards a ...

Cheesecake.
Mend Pet — ... But after much poking from a friend, I gave in and decided to give it a try again.  The original reason for this guy was to help me pick up the Alliance-only pets for my [Shop Smart, Shop Pet... Smart] achievement.  It was only after I spent much time getting to and subsequently dying at level 11 trying to get to Booty Bay’s AH that I realized it would have made a lot more sense to use a Death Knight… but ah well. ...

The OverAchiever: Lil' Game Hunter
WoW.com — ... went live with 3.0.8, I started looking at my options to get to 75 pets. Most people shouldn't have too much difficulty reaching 50 (Shop Smart, Shop Pet...Smart), but 75 is a little unnerving. I don't have any of the Collector's Edition, Trading Card Game, or fan event pets, and I also play Horde. That leaves me without access to the ...

Quais são seus 3 Achievements preferidos?
WoW Girl — ... for Mount Hyjal Esse veio um tempo depois do outro anterior, mas foi beeem antes daquele patch que nerfou todo o conteúdo da TBC. Se procurar por Archimonde, deve achar uma penca de posts sobre ele aqui no blog. Ele literalmente farmou a gente. Foram milhões de tentativas, e não dá pra explicar a sensação de nervoso no dia que finalmente parecia que iamos conseguir. Sem dúvidas, pra mim, foi o momento mais emocionante de todo esses anos de WoW. Shop Smart, Shop Pet…Smart Tá, esse não tem muita ...
