Yep, all of a sudden I'm realising there's quite a lot of things I
thought I had months left to do and I don't have so much time at all
:-) Oh well I've got ~200 salvage crates saved up on each of my 4 lvl
100s, so hopefully a decent chunk of transmog gear from them -
existing crates will be fine as of 7.0 but any earned after that won't
contain items, so I've been stockpiling them for a while! 

Word of warning to everyone with collections of follower upgrade
tokens - currently they vendor for nice gold; they're down to copper
after 7.0, so it's worth vendoring them before the patch hits! Which
will be fun to reconcile with the inventory mangement issues of
opening ~200 crates... I'll TRY to do the opening the night before the
patch so I can vendor the tokens then but might have to abandon it
when I run out of space lol.

I also really, really need to actually do LFR and finish my legendary
ring that I've been procrastinating over forever lol, it seemed like I
had ages to do it in, so it didn't matter... now I still need 17 tomes
and don't have so long; it's still available after 7.0 hits for people
already on it but even so, oops, better get down to that one :-P

Looking forward to: making my adorable gnome hunter and taming a
devilsaur hehe, also mass running dungeons and old raids for transmog
gear - I'm predicting a return of good old "Additional instances
cannot be deployed" on patch day, as I think a few people might be
likeminded there. I haven't even done any old content in months
because I didn't want to have to vendor stuff that I'd want for
transmog, and I don't have enough bank space to hold everything (oh
yeah, I'm REALLY looking forward to getting my banks back, even the
guildbank has 2 tabs entirely full of boes waiting for my wardrobe :-P
)

And for anyone logging in and wondering a) what happened to a lot of
useful interface options that you can't set how you like them, and b)
where the stats on the character page are, the following addons can
help (grabbed off MMO-C frontpage, there may be better alternatives
but these are what I'll try first):

http://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/advancedinterfaceoptions
http://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/dejacharacterstats

Both are IMO downgrades, a shame as I like what I've seen of the rest
of Legion, but these "streamlinings" just did a lot of harm IMO,
customisation is never a bad thing, and while I admit it was getting a
bit complex, surely an "advanced mode" was all that was required, hide
the less-used stuff behind that and job done! At least they put back
some of the most annoying options during the course of beta, including
my most hated changes, but there's still a few things missing.

Other than that, I'm looking forward to it, much more good than bad in
the changes overall I think :-)
