To be fair, I’m like 700/1000 without having intentionally done a single thing for it, and I only really got to play 2/3 days this week. I absolutely like the design of it self completing by doing basically any form of content, but the requirements feel a bit undertuned at this current rate, or at least those easy/passive ones do. It doesn’t need to take a whole month to actually complete, but maybe closer to a week’s worth of activities?

Imagine wanting more grinds in wow when you already spend way to much time playing go away.

I still don’t have the cat yet c: I’m happy this trading post doesn’t take a long time so I can just knock it out with my week end play session and not have to dedicate hours upon hours to it.

This, completely this. Not everything has to be a long and drawn out affair, this is a small amount of content with some fun and excitement.

The trading post is not content. It is a reward station. Rewards are not content. They are what you get for doing content.

It’s the type of carrot on a stick I love, what can I say?
Short and various activities for great rewards. Of course I’m going to consume this fast. What’s the alternative here? Grinding Renown to 21 to unlock a mount scale color?
Sounds like you rushed it instead of letting it happen organically

People like the OP are going to screw around and get the amount of points we can get per task nerf’d into oblivion.
And Blizzard will happily do it too, just to up their “time played” metrics.

Ok Soomer?
I think it only takes that long if you purposely do the objectives or do a large variety of content in wow.
The reason it had so many objectives is so you can earn it your own way through solo, pvp, raiding etc.
The only way to make it last longer either loses that, adds time gating, or would require a ridiculous amount of objectives to grind.
Remember they’ve added it near the end of a patch cycle this time. Imagine they did make it take longer and you’re trying to do mythics, pvp, raid, gear grind and do the trading post grind for a month.
The way it’s implemented gives more room for more systems that reward the time you put into the game without competing with current ones or future ones.
What will make players unique rewards matter from the trading post is what they choose to purchase each month. Over time you’ll have more and more outfits unique to your choices that you might have spent an entire year investing into.
We might not see anything in the shop right now again for months to come.
Choose wisely.

So I completed the Traveler’s Log but there are still things I wish to collect currency for. Does this mean I can no longer purchase anything? I looked at my log and the currency value for each item is gone now. How do I know I will still receive currency/credit after completing the remaining items.
Update: I just finished one of the listed items for currency. Though it gave me a completion credit, it did not reward currency. SO basically I feel like I am stall for some of the other items because now I want to be able to earn currency. And the Holiday Items haven’t even been scheduled yet!
I completed it fast, and am happy it wasn’t an annoying grind.
What a concept.

You mean like the DarkMoon Faire?
Oh I bet there will be nerfs coming, there always is.
Get ready to kill 8 raid bosses for 20 points and doing 20 world quests for 5.
Fun detected, monkey paw engaged.
So did many others, because it’s easy garbage.
Once your log says you completed it, you’re done. You don’t have to do everything on the list.
Just enough to get the max amount of tender for the month.
Next month it starts all over again with different stuff in the TP to choose from.
then it’s dead.
majority will not bother.
I finished the 1000 points of tasks the first night, but that’s because this stuff is my jam. I hardcore noscope 360 blasted that casual solo content.
I’m not sad that it’s done, it was neat to get rewarded for a variety of tasks in what felt like meaningful ways (for me) and I continue to get the little serotonin bloops as objectives continue to complete and give me a little popup even if it doesn’t give me anything extra.
Mythic raiders shouldn’t get irritated when open world content comes out that they can blast through. Likewise, I don’t get irritated when I blaze through new solo casual content. It’s where I’m a viking, while my friends and other people might plink at it through the month. It’s all good!

I did that. It was fun.
It was also kind of like going on a shopping spree in a way. I haven’t done that in years so it scratched that itch.
Next time though, I’ll take my time.
