I know you’re all still having fun in vanilla, but this is really just TBC waiting room for me!
When it comes to MMOs and RPGs, I like to “complete” everything that could be considered a task, so that the rest of my free time can be spent doing various shenanigans, wPVP, arena, battlegrounds, etc that don’t have a finite completion goal.
I tried coming up with every task in TBC that would put my character in a well progressed position outside of things like raid BIS and list them out in the rough order I would be completing them in.
As for the shenaningans: Stuff like catching Mr. Pinchy, playing around with twink alts (Level 10 haste bear anyone?), and helping lower level players with dungeons (one of my favorite things to do), or just leveling alts the slow way instead of rushing
I’ve posted the list below (that somewhat assumes previous experience with TBC). Perhaps someone could have a look over it and either gain a resource for their own use, or point out something I’ve mistaken or missed!
Cheers
