Nice, only 646 here but then I've not done normal at all so getting
this high is decent so quickly; only one blue item remaining, garrison
missions just refuse to give me a chestpiece, despite many
shoulders/necks/trinkets from them! If one doesn't drop from LFR this
week I'll craft one, since I manage to replace my crafted shoulders
with a 655 from the Highmaul garrison mission, I've got a free crafted
item slot again (using trinket+ring at present) - getting my tailor
and scribe through to the garrison stage was a good decision for
gearing, I think :-)

I stopped bothered with wing 1 when I got most loot from it, but still
do wing 2 as that actually offers a bit of challenge to a healer, much
more fun :-) Having read a guide to the final boss on normal mode, I'm
kinda hoping that's toned down a bit for LFR, it sounds quite
complicated for an uncoordinated pug!

2 years and they've still not fixed the bugs, that doesn't surprise me
:-P Bugs were why I stopped playing, since it was very hard to really
get far, although if you start a new city each time it's much better
lol. I kept finding advanced stuff was bugged out and broke my city,
and the traffic, oh dear the traffic was bad, I do hope that has been
improved!

Heh SC2000, that sounds old! I had SC3000 as my first SimCity game and
even that refused to work on more modern PCs several years back so
2000 must've needed quite a bit of work on it to make it actually
function! I'll pick that up if I remember :-)

Talking of SimCity reminds me of another game I played a year or so
ago, need to get back to it: Banished - citybuilding, but starting
from scratch in an uninhabited land, needing to find food and ways to
keep warm in winter, was pretty fun :-)
