This last week I have put an additional ten hours into the game. During this play time I have done some things that increase my chances at a drop and some things that didn't increase my drop rate. I have been working on my "Pathfinder" achievement for Legion which allows flying in the current expansion. The achievement requires you to explore all zones by foot, complete 100 different types of world quest, raise all expansion base reputations to revered, and fully complete the story line in every zone within the expansion. Once this is complete you acquire a faster ground mount speed and the chance to earn "Pathfinder Part II" which does allow flying.
You may be wondering why flying would be important in a legendary seeking experiment. Well some of the drop chances are tied to world bosses, world quests, and Legion invasions. These activities are spread all over the questing zones which makes a lot of your playtime spent traveling around the map, flying just seeds the travel time up just enough to cut yor daily playtime by a few minutes. And we all know that every minute counts when time is limited. These reasons are why I am choosing to grind towards completion of all zones this expansion, it is time to finally see what the game has to offer.
As far as activities spent working towards s a legendary drop this week, I had already cleared the highest tier raid so I was forced to do other activities. I capped my rated player vs player conquest for the item level 915 drop, during which I opened around 5 battle chests. I also completed 5 world quest chains and 2 legion invasions. These activities took my drop chances up to 62, with a zero drop so far.
Legendary 1: 0/62 or 0% drop rate.
Next week we will look at some of the other achievements in the game as well as give another update to how this experiment is going.
