Over Achiever?

So, with the announcement of the Cataclysm expansion, I've been giving a lot of thought to getting some achievements out of the way.

I've already took the time to finally complete my Explorer Achievement and now I'm all titled up. My first title by the way! I was so happy to finally BE SOMEBODY!

Well now, thanks to a certain overzealous friend of mine who shall remain nameless...

(cough..cough...Majesty...cough...cough)

I'm seriously pondering going after my Loremaster title. Now mind you, the undertaking is, for lack of a better term, insane! Just to give you an idea, I currently have only 378 quests completed in the Eastern Kingdoms. Kalimdor comes in at around 230. In order to nail this achievement, you need to complete 700 quests in the Eastern Kingdoms, 700 quests in Kalimdor and a shit ton of quests in both Outland and Northrend totaling somewhere in the number of 3,000 quests completed!

LOLWUT? Is Blizzard freaking serious? The only thing that is making me consider this title is the fact that Aurendar (or Razor) doesn't really do that much in the game anyway. Why not hang out in some classic zones (before they are all destroyed) and have a good time? It actually sounds kind of fun!

So, this afternoon I decided to head off to Dun Murough and get my questing on. I chose Dun Murough due to the fact that as a Night Elf, I leveled that range out in Teldrassil. I've never quested with Aur out there at all so I pretty much have free pickins when it comes to quests there.

To make a long story short, I finished two lowbie quests before I was pulling my hair out. At least my Eastern Kingdom quest count is now 380! It's going to be tough but you know what? I'm going to tough it out and see where this goes.

Maybe if I can find a questing friend, it won't be as monotonous. You know, I should really move to Moon Guard. I know a lot of folks over there that would love to come keep me company! Also, making journal entries on my progress might make this a pretty fun adventure. Oh also, I can take snapshots of the zones as I visit them. I'm wanting to create my own virtual "scrapbook" of the locales to reflect on once the great Cataclysm is upon us!

There will be more on the Loremaster front as I make progress!
