    I'm LOVING the expansion. Thee is so much to do I haven't even bothered with tackling heroics or raiding yet, and I'm an ex-hardcore realm first raider, work that out lol.

    But for you, you might just want to stay quit, there are pandas everywhere, bl you don't like them

    Once the Pandas are geared up.. they just look like big fat things running around. They have to be naked to look "cute and cuddly" lol! But as Val said.. there is almost too much to do, if thats possible! I find it difficult on a normal day ( non-weekend or day off ) to get everything done I would "like" to get done. After i do my two factions worth of dailies.. and one dungeon run.. i'm beat. On the weekend, when i can play all day. I get things done that i cant durning the week. Like mining and gathering herbs for example. I actually can't wait until I don't "have" to do dailies anymore, so i can do other things. Also, when i do not "have" to do something.. i enjoy it more.

    I got my 5 man team through to 90 around 1-2 weeks after the rest of my guild, questing is very very grindy with lots of little sparkly things to pick up off the ground, usually a couple of those quests were enough to make me rage log for a hour or two. I was so relieved to hit 90, and then the full of impact of the dailies were revealed to me lol.

    I am focusing on getting the Tillers to exalted on the team, which opens up the full 16 slot farms, only a couple of days off now. Once that is done I will start on the Golden Lotus dailies or the Dragon serpent guys as I keep my 5 farms turning over every day.

    I got one of my toons into LFR last night which was pretty cool, LFR is boxable and getting my other toons in there is another thing I am aiming for.

    I'm getting the itch to level another team, if I do it will be through bgs and grinding skin able mobs.

    I still do all my dailies, but I skip any that are collection. I'd rather be late to exalted then burn myself finishing in a month. Outside of profession recipes, there is not a whole lot the team gets from dailies. Bgs are in a strange place with all the aoe CC, but with a little pvp gear you can crush people in bgs so...

    Exactly this. Do heaps of dailies, but only the easy ones, you don't HAVE to be exalted with every faction within 3 weeks of MoP release. Most of them are just for fun anyway :P

    I've been having fun. It's still WoW, though. More of the same (plus panda's).

    Thanks for the feedback!

    Like I said... having the itch...

    I think we all get it now and then. Something like the 8th time i've comeback now. Atleast I didnt kiss everyone goodbye and claim I'd never be back last time!

    So far I would have to say that I am enjoying this expansion more than Cat. There have been a few issues that I have run into that I am sure not everyone else has. For example, I hit level 90 at the start of Kun-Lai. While this was ok as now all the quests give big gold rewards. I had to go online and dig up the information on how to get flight. I was surprised at how much I still had to do to unlock the big hub city, and I am not looking forward to doing this with more alts.

    The biggest ball drop so far at 90 is the inability to run random dungeons. I don't have the iLevel for heroics and the main source of JP and gear from normal dungeons is unavailable. It's supposed to get fixed, but its pretty damn lame my 85 shaman can get 70jp for a random and my level 90 can't do any randoms at all.

    I do like the gear vendors. For around 1,000 gold you can totally gear a fresh 85 and steamroll dungeons out of the gate. You can do this again at 87 and 88 and upgrade anything you might have missed. It makes it nice for alts, but it's also a bit counter productive with some of the other short falls like having to re-quest and unlock everything like the hub city, dailies and such.

    However I will say my favorite part is my Prot Paladin feels strong again. In Wrath he was a god. Cat came out and Holy Power just turned him into a half ass DK with half of the abilities I had in Wrath. Now with 5 holy power instead of 3 and the return of some core abilities he is kicking ass again. Oh and 500k health pools to stack Vengeance and hitting 120k dps is pretty sweet too.

    I would give this expansion an 7.5 out of 10. It looses a point on some of the polish issues I already stated and another point for Lore. Everything is too new and unknown and I am still not keen on the idea of an expansion based around an old April fools joke panda class. The aspects are gone, the burning leigon should be knocking on Azaroth's door.

    I capped JP/HP prior to MOP, and damn am I lucky I did, with the Dread Wastes quest 450 gear (3 pieces) plus the 3 or so pieces I could buy with JP (they lowered the requirements to friendly faction pretty early). I didn't have problems getting in.

    Heroics aren't faceroll to box early on, but they are honestly quite doable compared to Cata, I would really put them in the same class as WoTLK for sure. And like a lot of other people... I literally have like a checklist of things I try to do (non-weekend, day off) and it's basically do my crafting CD's, two factions worth of dailies and one Random Heroic, or 2 scenarios (tank runs through with other 4, two separate groups). On weekends I have extra time to try out heroics that have been giving me problems (last boss in the Gate of Setting Sun??... huge Bug). Hands down though my three favorite heroics so far, are the two SH and the Scholo... they wrecked it for boosting but I like it.

    My one wishlist thing... they somehow incorporate a Caverns of Time instance in one of the upcoming content packs, but not in the crappy Cata way... I feel like they could totally redeem themselves... Durnholde, Stratholme and Dark Portal were great. Maybe some backstory deal with Garrosh and Cairn?? or something, those Cata CoT instances left a bad taste in my mouth Ooor... and this isn't a spoiler cuz I have no clue but some backstory instance to do with the Black Dragon flight... some tie in with Wrathion.
