Going to have to do that myself some time too. Blizzard REALLY excelled on the RP side to questing as well, not only with better quests in general. Really looking forward to how this expansions plays out, such a high bar to begin with. Those cutscenes made questing feel extremely rewarding. Somehow a friend of mine managed to miss both the shattrath and the nagrand quest leading to the cutscene.
I guess the honeymoon phase with the addon isn't over yet but as far as I can say I still love my pokemon followers but I don't like the profession system too much. Started to bench my epic followers so I can level all the green ones. Got my first follower with a healer spell yesterday finishing the first zone. I bet there are more but it seems I missed all of them : )
Yesterday the group we threw together in a hurry failed to beat the 2nd boss in Syreach Challenge Mode. We were too low on the dps side and it was a fun experience. I'm looking forward to trying it again. Specced BM for a few tries but the loss of single target dps from mm to bm hunter was ridiculous. Maybe I'm just shit at the spec. I'm still not used to the number crunch. What kind of dps increase can you expect going from a 620 ilvl weapon to a 630 one? 12 weapon dps or whatever the difference is sounds like nothing.

Arch mage? In Arak you get the cat shaman, goblin rogue from the quest line in the south, arakkoa shadow priest, benjamin gibb from the ghost garrison and dark ranger velonara or weirdo robot ziri'ak depending on your outpost choice, but can't remember any archmages being there :D Also Bony Xuk wins the award for the best npc of WoD  I finally found a big flaw in WoD that really bothers me - reputation grinds. While you can get some reputation with frostwolves and arrakoa during quests the only way to get it is mindless grind. The worst is Laughing Skull, you start at friendly and the only way to raise it is killing mobs in a certain area until you get 39k rep points. Which is really annoying cause I'm all about collecting followers, but need revered with those factions to buy them  And 3 exalted reps to get level 3 trading post. The resto shaman is in Arak sorry the Arch mage you have to collect 4 items from all over draenor. Sorry for the confusion it is the way i type things xD Arch Mage is level 100, you find his ring,staff,robes and boots. Then you take them to legendary quest place Khaggar is it in Talador he is level 100 reason i wanted him. Resto shaman is in a cave at top of mountain in Spires in the middle part of the map. You just rescue him from inside cave and he comes at level 97. I wanted the healer for eventually level 100 raid missions i send my followers on i will need him i think. I have the ele shaman you're on about though and benjy gibb because he is the only follower in game with scribe trait. (well one you can find, i know you can ask your "inn" to find you followers with specific traits) That is why this addon is good, you can see all the level 100 followers you can get around Draenor to add to your team as well as others for specific moves or traits.
I got that resto shaman from the cave too. Going to take ages to get reputation with him but if you get him to level 3 affection thing he'll be a mobile war table to manage missions from the field.
Favourite follower has to be Alexi + Show Spoiler + Barov.

There is a huge jump from BM aoe to shocking single target dps it is not you. If you ever need someone for CM shout me i need to do the daily cmodes and i don't have any tank friends that are any use to me or healers TT and pugging it isn't an option for me lol.
Yeah leveling the followers and "gearing them up" is very important to try and get your hands on epic gear from eventual raid missions. I didn't think i would like the Garrison as much as i am haha, it's very RP but so fun :D
Could do alot with it as well, more customization options and such. Would like it being more "red" for horde as well and then blue for alliance etc. But still very fun. Only thing i hate is the way it destroyed mining for me as a profession. Not only has everyone got access to ore which i can deal with to an extent but wtf i can't even smelt the bars? All i can do with mining is mine nodes in Draenor and nothing else. Unless i am missing something i can't smelt shit, you need blacksmithing to smelt the bars which is stupid :s
Alexi Barov :o What is he? He sounds cool xD

If you have a Lumber Mill you will randomly find him underneath a (large) log.

The only thing I care about this expansion is the "Warlord" Title. I've completed Orcs so far for the 500, working on Pandas now. It's going to be a long grind for those two. Sitting at like.. 4k? Bones as of this morning. I've done far too much ashran, I completely forgot they redid Brawlers Guild for level 100, So I will probably go get to rank 5 and get my follower for that.

Yeah meatball is it that follower he is awesome has sick traits. I play on Draenor and went into brawlers guild at 2am UK (3am server time) and was 17th in the queue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was like w t f so i gave up on that lol.
Oh thanks Kipsate, my lumber mill is only level 1 i only used it to farm resources early and was going to get rid eventually to replace with trading post again i think. Hmmm

Hmmm Leaving it at one isn't the worst choice if you aren't interested in the achievement and play every day. I don't understand the decision to not increase the work order output of the lumbermill. Upgrading is only a quality of life decision. As soon as I get the 100 work order achievement I'll most likely switch to the trading post.

Yeah think i will do it one at a time, it is a great resource collection rate plus if you level to 2 and 3 for medium and large trees you pretty much get open field as not many people have it that level. Will probably do that just to get Alexi Barov as that name is just op :D Everyone needs a hard Russian tree cutter as a follower :3

The best thing about Alexi is the way you find him, other than that he is nothing special (unless you luck out and get epic version, havin 2 traits on followers is esential for hard level 100 missions, and getting them from green to purple takes 180k xp ). There is also another follower from Lumber Mill when you have it at lvl 3, but I changed mine into Tavern instead, so don't know the details on obtaining it

And now he's not our archenemy but an undead capitalist. That's what I like about him. When you play him enough he'll be epic one day. (Followers level up at lvl 100 going to rare and epic after earning huge amounts of xp. Going to take some time.)

Ok so now that we are a couple weeks in My thoughts are that Wod is pretty good, Very different. The Garrison changes everything about the game. I feel that mining is pretty much a dead profession that this point. My non miner has over 500 of each ore and Ore is pretty much only used in daily crafting and work orders.
I hate Getting all my followers to lvl 100, the missions at lvl 100 are so long and you have way fewer missions. Making my scrap yard almost useless had to activate some of my lower level Followers just to get that mission flood again.
Finally started getting invasions after a few hours of grinding on orcs. They are a lot of fun I love the invasions. Got my ilevel to 634 and find that There are way to many pieces of gear that you can get. 6 different chests from the same boss for the same loot spec. All trying to get that sweet piece that has the perfect stats really isn't fun glad the raids aren't like this.
MC was a fucking blast. Took 2 hours and I enjoyed every minute. I was lucky enough to have cleared MC In vanilla and this experience was great. The corehound mount is really amazing and huge!
Ready for some new content on Dec 2nd.

Nice, if anyone else is interested in Horde EU CMs, pm or drop your battle tag and we see what we can do together. I'll eventually have tank gear enough for CMs too and i can tank for us. Remember with the daily CM you get random 540 epic. Also you don't need to complete in a certain time, just complete it. Might take an hour or so but is do able.

What comes out next in WoW, and when? Also, when does MC go away? I tried queuing for MC yesterday, but the queue literally popped after over 3 hours and 15 minutes, so I did not have time to join.

Just boosted a hunter to 90 because they're one of the few classes I've never played before. BM seems to be the leveling spec. Any tips?
