Bella - The Diplomat!


I have been going through my incomplete achievements and looking for ones i might be able to knock off relatively quickly, and that i started and never finished. One i have always wanted to complete but kept forgetting about, or expecting a long grind for is The Diplomat.
I'd already gotten Exalted with Sporeggar back in TBC for the mini pet and tabard, but i was still Revered with Timbermaw Hold and the Kurenai. So, i set out for Timbermaw Hold in Felwood as my first stop.

Obviously as a level 90 i was one shotting mobs, and by the time something died and i ran to the next my ranged cooldowns were up which made for consistent grinding. I set my pace collecting headress feathers, and had a couple of quests to do too which certainly helped. Less than 25 min later, i was Exalted. Definitely the easiest rep grind i have done in ages. It helped that i am in a level 25 guild which gives bonus rep.
While grinding i saw a couple of other players, but they were doing other things, like fishing.
I came across a little Log House which I've never seen before, and it was very cute and homely, so i stopped for a moment to enjoy the warmth and scent of a freshly brewed stew.

Furbolg Home - I don't want to know what's cooking...!
After getting Exalted with Timbermaw hold (and purchasing the wand that turns you into one!) i headed off to Nagrand and Started on the Kurenai. I did a couple of quest chains which gave me a decent amount of rep, and farmed war beads to hand in for rep after that. I also ran into my friend from a different realm who happened to be farming rep too!
Some really nice greens dropped for me which will be great for transmog (i will probably sell them) including a mail chest piece, cloth robe, and a shield.


After becoming Exalted (Took about an hour in total over 2 days), first thing i did was look up where the quartermaster was and purchased the Riding Talbuk's (8 in total). They look lovely and once again, i've wanted these mounts for a long time but just didn't put in the effort until now to get them. Maybe the 150 Mount Achievement isnt as unobtainable as i thought? ;)
