1 Thing i have always been surprised they havent added to the TBC Timewalking vendor is the Dreadfang Venom Sac and the Dampscale Basilisk Eye which lets you swap from one to the other. Those are items that a person has to farm and i feel we ‘Farm’ the Timewalking badge’s so why cant we use the BAdge’s to get those items to let you swap from one to the other.
If you’ve never farmed the items and switched factions from Aldor to Scryer, then you’ll understand why.
I have and i’ll never do that grind again.
I support that idea. I’ve done the grind twice (because I’m an OCD weirdo) and something like that for timewalking wouldn’t be a bad thing to have.
I have some of those. Do I need them?
The real shocker is that Blizz never added a “Hero of Shattrath” title for doing it.
Just if you plan on swapping from Aldor/Scryer and getting the Hero of Shattrath achieve.
when the TBC Content was current im sure those spiders were current you also had tons of people farming both the Spiders and the Basiliscs so was easier to go to the AH to buy the extras the others had where now not to many people are farming them and those who do are few and far between to where at times youd have to check the AH at the right time to buy them off it before someone else does or they just decide that vendoring them would be better the nposting them up again. Which is where grinding out the Timewalking Badges would come in, granted you wont be doing it solo but it would still be a grind and youd have to know how much each cost and how many of the badges youd need in total to get what you need so in the other hand its still a farm it just be that the farm for them changed and allowed the current players to get what they need to swap between Aldor/Scryer. It could also be said can be just as tough or Hard since TBC timewalking is only around once every couple of months or so, atleast at this point in the game till they decide to change how many come up at once or how quickly they come up.
Wow, that’s quite the wall of text!
Here’s some handy tips for you:
Sentence
noun
Grammar. a grammatical unit of one or more words that expresses an independent statement, question, request, command, exclamation, etc., and that typically has a subject as well as a predicate, as in John is here. or Is John here?

its a forum post not a Resume
Can’t you get these items all the time by killing mobs in the TBC zones?
Yes, just there spread out a bit and would most likely take HOURS of farming to get enough to swap between Scryers to aldor. Probably close to the amount of farming of the Junkboxes for the Ravenholdt Rep.
Wouldn’t it just be easier for them to add Aldor and Scryer commendations?
Just make sure to note in the tooltip 'using this commendation will reduce your rep with (other faction) by 1,000.
it’s also entirely irrelevant.
achievements didn’t exist when the content was current.
Im trying to work on repachievements
Yeah but forums are for communication, and walls of text are bad at communicating things because I’m too old to ruin my vision picking through that mess.
Wimp.
If it was an agonizing, soul-crushing, time-consuming grind for me, it should be for everyone.
Im doing the grid back to Aldor again because I forgot to buy the BS patterns. Commendations from TW should not be added to a vender because this game is suppose to be a massive time sink not a log in for 30 min a day and get handed everything. It’s also one of the very few grinds that have not been removed and made trivial.
