Neutral Pandaren Pandemia Reaches Level 100 with Just Herbalism and Mining

Recommended Posts

Following in the footsteps of Doubleagent, who has reached Level 120 without leaving Wandering Isle, here's Pandémia, who wants to achieve the same feat before Shadowlands goes live because the new expansion will decrease experience gains from gathering professions, making the grind even harder!

On August 5, we posted an article on Pandémia reaching Level 85, and today, the player has now reached Level 100, so there are just 20 levels left to reach the current BfA cap of Level 120.

Shadowlands makes it harder for Neutrals with around 60% less XP from gathering, so I need to hurry. Lvl 100! from r/wow

Blizzard is reducing experience gains from gathering professions by 60% in the Shadowlands, so the goal is really simple: Reach Level 120 with just Herbalism and Mining before the new expansion goes live.

That would have been impressive if it was not for the fact that DoubleAgent did it long before him and without exp buff.

It's still impressive, just imagine the hours of grinding behind it without going crazy.

I didn't realise that. That sucks. Gathering currently feels worthwhile for your XP bar, which in turn makes professions feel doable because you're not slowing yourself down dramatically by stopping for nodes. Perhaps the quicker level pace will make up for it.

Without taking anything away from it, because that dude is indeed insane, this is actually the sort of grinding I find easier. Normally you might have background music while playing, but here you have foreground music and background grinding.

Still insane.

Never see the point to people doing this, but each to their own i guess, it just seems so pointless to me.

Because they can. I don't see it as any different than the "no sphere grid wakka only" guides for FFX

It is in some respect, but it's not newsworthy until he reaches cap imo, and even then it's a quick gz and back to the world of the sane. Someone already did it, and without an exp buff.

It's a goal, I suppose. Something to guide you. Might be satisfying to work towards. Sometimes I set my eyes on random things ingame and then feel lost once I achieve them. 

Also something that few other people can claim to have done. Maybe that's cool too? I mean sure, Doubleagent did it already. It's not 'first'. But in a game of however many million players being able to say 'I'm one of only two people who've done this' is preeeeetty rare.

Yup. I used to do speed runs in vanilla and TBC out of admiration for Joana, whenever a new server was launched. I was actually the first 70 on Cairne because of this. Doesn't mean anything, was just something fun to do because I could and I had the time to do so.

Another unnecessary post just to generate website traffic... Why would anyone care for this? Next time: "Guy creates lvl1 character to do xyz in the distant future. Stay tuned."

Yeah except there's at least 2 who have done it, he's racing someone else doing it now, and there's more already doing it just not to the same speed.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
