The Usual Patch Day Fun

Well as usual Patch day had its share of issues. It took much longer than anticipated in order to get the servers up (as usual) and once they were up they were fairly unstable (as usual), but those of us who expect the issues are not disappointed
In between crashes I did manage to get on and buy my signet upgrade, and buy dual spec. I even managed to get the second spec configured, but I haven’t done my glyphs yet. I was saddened to find out that the Penance Glyph is one of the dropped ones
I managed to go around and get the rest of my badge DPS gear, and after that was done I was only 3 short from getting the badge mount
It was a while before the server was stable so it was really time for bed by the time it was. I stayed up though to do my first Fishing Daily! The first one sent you after a sucker fish to discover its secret which happens to be it turns you invisible. You really have to pay attention to because after you fish it you only have 60 seconds before it disappears.
I also had to do the cooking daily and after completed that I debated about the chef hat. It looks awesome, and well I am a big cook. I had the tokens for it too, but still wasn’t sure. Then I thought well I should buy it now so it is documented I had the tokens to buy it on the day it was available. Well the damn server registered the date for that achievement for the 15th instead of the 14th, curse them! Anyways I got the achievement and the nifty hat. I only need to aquire one more cooking recipe to have all the cooking achievements
I had a lot of addons that were still quite broken. I’m hoping that the sites will have some fixes tomorrow so that perhaps I will be able to truely get some play time in. I’m hoping to try to get in a 10 man Uldar group this weekend. During the rest of the week I will probably try to test out my new Disc abilities and practice being shadow
Hope everyone else had a wonderful patch day! It is possible on some smaller population servers you may not have had any issues at all!
