Wrath Of The Lich King Is Here! (But Not For All Of Us)

While innocently playing earlier, I knew that the Wrath of the Lich King expansion was truly here when I saw some of my friejnds who never used to play so late log on to quietly make their way to the Undercity, then to Tirisfal Glades and next thing you know they’re in the Borean Tundra or the Howling Fjord. I’m was quietly tracking their location on the friends list and as soon as they reached Tirisfal Glades, I knew what they were up to. As for poor expansion-less me, I was trying to pass the time doing other things to try to take my mind off my crappy situation. While doing this, I realized that there were a lot more people like me in the same situation. I quickly thought about the topic to do below.

Things To Do If You Don’t have The Expansion Yet

Do daily quests

A friend told that the quests he’s done in the expansion so far don’t give gold. He advised me to get as much gold as I can by doing dailies since I don’t have the expansion yet. Even if you eventually do get the gold later on from quests, more gold is not a bad thing!

Deal With Professions That Need Work

Some of you may have 70’s that still need to work on their professions. Inscription comes to mind but it could be any other profession. While waiting for your copy of the expansion, you can spend your time online productively by getting these professions up some more.

Dust Off That non-70 Alt And Play It

If you really don’t have much to do on your 70’s aside from do the dailies, then maybe you can turn your attention to that alt that’s been sitting in your virtual closet for quite a while now. In my case, it’s my warlock who’s currently level 61. I’m not sure if I’ll pay too much attention to it when the expansion comes out but at playing it gives me something to do.

Empty Your Bags/Bank Of Stuff You Won’t Need In The Expansion

Get rid of the stuff you won’t need that’s cluttering your bags and bank. Vendor them. Put them in the Auction House. Do whatever to get more space for the new stuff you’ll be getting when you get your copy of the game.

Complete Quests But Don’t Turn Them In Yet

Might as well turn your situation into something that will benefit you when you do get your copy of the expansion. You can complete as many quests as you can (If you’re a pretty fresh 70, you probably have tons of quests you still haven’t done) but don’t turn them in yet. When you get the expansion, turn them in for some pretty nice XP!

These are the stuff I thought off but I’m sure there’s more to do. Maybe you could go do TBC dungeons with other people who don’t have the expansion yet. This is a perfect time to do your own personal last minute TBC tribute. Whatever you do, try not to be too sad about the situation. When you do get the expansion, I’m sure it’s going to be worth the wait!
