How to get to Tol Dagor

How Many Pet Charms? 10k?
The new Shadowlands patch, 9.1, is now on the PTR and we have a list of some new battle pets which will be coming in that patch. There are 45 listed so far in the journal and the most notable of these is the Flawless Amethyst Baubleworm which is listed as costing 10,000 Polished Pet Charms. That is A LOT! I am sure I have never even collected that many in total before. The pet looks quite cool but my goodness it costs a lot, and it's not even unique. There are three other Baubleworms listed, Turquoise Baubleworm, Topaz Baubleworm and Ruby Baubleworm. These three pets are listed as costing three different grey items each, which some people have commented will mean they have to turn off their automatic junk selling addons :) All four Baubleworms will be sold by a vendor in Oribos.
In preparation, I thought I would try and get the 10,000 pet charms before patch 9.1 arrives. You can get the pet charms from Shadowlands pet world quests, Shadowlands command table, BFA pet world quests and the BFA mission table. I didn't think that you could do the world quests on multiple characters but looking at it again today you can, although some of my alts do not seem to have them unlocked in BFA and only three are levelled for Shadowlands. I will not be able to do every quest every day but time allowing, lets see how long it takes.
I will also have a look at the grey items required for the other three baubleworms and see if can also acquire them. They are:

Snapback Scuttler part 1
Undersea Usurper - Complete the Nazjatar Achievements listed below
I have only played in Nazjatar in order to get reputation for Pathfinder Part II, back then without flying it was a nightmare to navigate and I only did the bare minimum required. The zone looks great and once you can fly, getting around is a lot better, although there are still times where I couldn't work out where to find something as it was maybe in a cave or on another layer of the scenery.

| Nazjatar |
The six achievements I have done so far are:
The Unshackled - earn exhalted with the Unshackled.
Unfathomable - complete the Nazjatar storyline.
Mrrl's Secret Stash - obtain one of Mrrl's Secret Stash.
Terror of the Tadpoles - shoo away 100 Bloodfin Tadpoles in Nazjatar.
Time to keep working on this. Some of the achievements just take time and some will take a little more work.

PVP noob to PVP not quite such a noob

| Most of this honor was from Legion PVP World Quests while doing almost no actual PVP |
Our next challenge is up try and get the PVP mount, Vicious White Bonesteed. This is rewarded after winning arena matches with a rating above 1400. So far we are at 61% but the end is looming. The PVP season ends with the prepatch for Shadowlands and that is coming on 13th October.

The Perfect Transmog
Having got the Vestments of the Eternal Traveler, from the Shadowlands preorder, me and a guildy were trying to find the perfect transmog weapon to go with it. At first as a DK I used the Gravewalker's Runeblade, a 2H sword which looks pretty good especially with added Winter's Grasp enchantment, but then we found it, the perfect weapon.

And it looks really really nice!!
As an added bonus I also dropped the mount from that raid Antoran Charhound, while we were farming. This is a flying felstalker that had been imbued with shadow and flame by Sargaras.

BfA Mage Portal Trainer
Speak to him and he will teach you any portals you do not already know including Portal: Dazar'alor and Teleport: Dazar'alor. This will be very useful for my mage in getting around the new zones.
I do not have an alliance mage character but if you do the Portal Trainer, Yvia Wavebound, is also located in the portal room Sanctum of the Sages, in Boralus, Kul Tiras (71:16).

Nice Mount Day from Islands
This lucky week the boxes available were:
Crestfall Salvage (175 Dubloons)
Jorundall Salvage (175 Dubloons)
Verdant Wilds Salvage (120 Dubloons)
I had some Dublooms saved up so I bought a few boxes. The boxes can contain pets, mounts and transmog rewards which usually drop from the islands. From my first box, Crestfall Salvage, I got four items Old Jon's Left Hand (Fist Weapon), Plundered Pirate Admiral's Bicorne (transmog), Leatherwing Screecher (pet) and 2x Island Flosam (rep tokens)

| Squawks (mount) "Guess why he's called that? It's not because he's a nice quiet pet." |
Also whilst running a few islands with my friends I got Surf Jelly. Initially when I saw this drop I thought it was a pet and didn't really look at it until later when I checked my bags and realised it was a mount. This is a mount that only works in water. If you jump near the surface it will despawn which is a little annoying however, you can use it in Nazjatar.

Getting The Frightened Kodo
The Frightened Kodo nuzzled my hand, it wanted to come with me, so I clicked on it and the mount was mine. Another player did arrive just after I got it but he was nice and congratulated me. April 9, 2020
Welcome to Zandalar: Part #1
- Speak to Warchief Sylvanas Windrunner.
- Meet your team.
Lady Sylvanas Windrunner "I require the services of one whom I can trust completely. To win this war, the Horde needs allies. The boy king has something that does not belong to him. I want it back. You are to infiltrate Stormwind and liberate a political prisoner. One who could change the course of the war... in our favor. Are you up to the task?"
Sylvanas has assembled a team for you. Go and meet your team – they are in the Inn, The Broken Tusk, Orgrimmar
The ramparts are above the front gate of Orgrimmar.
Lasan Skyhorn "These war eagles will carry us to our destination. Ready to go? Then climb aboard!" Climb aboard a Skyhorn Eagle, this starts the scenario.
Scenario - The Stormwind Extraction
Nathanos Blightcaller "Listen closely. We will not be in contact once we've entered Stormwind. You Thalyssra and Rokhan will infiltrate the Stockades and extract the prisoners. Our scouts have located a hidden entrance. The tauren and I will cover your escape. I have supplied each of you will an easy death. if you find yourself out of options, use it. There's our way out. Get to that ship once you have the prisoners."
Rokhan "You not be comin' wit' us?"
High Overlord Saurfang "We both know you are not here for me. Those you seek are down the hall."
First Arcanist Thalyssra "I see... If you are certain High Overlord."
High Overlord Saurfang "I am Lok'tar"
Princess Talanji "Hmm... Thank you. My prophet tells me you are allies."
Rokhan "Hahaha, naw naw naw, mon. I be knowin' you. You be dat snake dat--"
First Arcanist Thalyssra "We have come on behalf of the Horde. I am Thalyssra, and this is Rokhan."
There is a shout from Mage-Commander Lyra "Lock it down!" A nullification field appears silencing all spells you can't escape. Zul the Prophet shows the way you must escape on foot, at the end room you face the Alliance Commander.
Mage-Commander Lyra "You will go no further! No one catches the 7th Legion unawares. Die, Horde filth! Someone... Stop them..."
Defeat her and make your escape by clicking the trapdoor into the unpleasant smell below.
Crier Goodman "Horde infiltrators have breached the Stockades! Civilians are to remain in their homes until the threat has been subdued!"
Move around the city towards the docks as you cross a bridge Zul the Prophet suddenly tells you to jump off the bridge.
Zul the Prophet "Jump off de bridge. Now."
Rokhan "Eh?"
Zul the Prophet "NOW"
Rokhan "A little more warnin' woulda been nice."
Go up the steps out of the water, you need to speed it up a bit speak to Rokhan again to continue.
At Cathedral Square you get attacked by Gilnean Maulers led by Genn Greymane. Defend yourselves but you need to get out of there. You see Lady Jaina Proudmoore.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore "I have known the Horde to be cruel and heartless. Ruthless in its pursuit of victory, but this... this is folly. You will die here, and an unmarked grave will be all you have to show for it."
Genn Greymane "Look at them flee, tails between their legs!"
First Arcanist Thalyssra "We cannot fight her. Run!"
Zul the prophet sets a fire, continue to the harbor and meet up with Nathanos Blightcaller
Nathanos Blightcaller "Well this is a fine mess we're in."
Rokhan "Don't be actin' like you not happy to see us."
Nathanos Blightcaller "Delighted. Truly. Now, let's move. On your mark."
Speak to Nathanos to continue.
Nathanos Blightcaller "Watch your step. It seems the Alliance's consummate diplomat will not be taking prisoners this time."
Lady Jaina Proudmoore "That is far enough!"
Jaina puts an ice barrier to block your escape, break it down.
Lady Jaine Proudmoore "You will not harm another soul in this city! Die, Horde scum!"
Princess Talanji creates a defensive barrier.
First Arcanist Thalyssra "Are they not pursuing us?"
Nathanos Blightcaller "No... but I think I know why. Look."
Lady Jaine Proudmoore is infront of you blocking the way to the boat.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore "You have slain many innocents to get this far. But your little jailbreak is over. Surrender, and I will return you to the Stockades where you belong. There, you will await the king's justice."
Nathanos Blightcaller "Respectfully, we have a boat to catch."
During the escape Zul the Prophet had been setting many fires. He tells Jaina that although she could beat them should she not be helping save Stormwind.
Lady Jaine Proudmoore "This is not over."
You can board the ship.
Princess Talanji "Regardless of what your warchief wants I must return to my people. We are going to Zuldazar, as dis is my ship and dis is your only way out of Stormwind, Do you have a problem with dat?"
Me "Not at all"
The Alliance begin chasing the ship but Princess Talanji summons a large dinosaur who boosts the Zandalari ship away and they arrive at the fleet who had destroy most of the Alliance.
We have arrived at Zandalar!

Mail Muncher Mount
Clicking a mailbox will summon a mob which is either an Angry Mailemental or there is thought to be a 1-5% chance of it being the Mail Muncher. Both mobs are fairly easy to defeat. If you spawn the Mail Muncher the mount is 100% drop.

New Helm with Tentacles
I just wanted to post a picture because it looks funny. When I move the tentacles jiggle about. I'm not sure if I am going to keep this look but it would be nice to get the whole set.

Mechagon: Scrappy's Best Friend
Scrappy's Best Friend - Revive Scrappy in Rustbolt and feed him a Mechano-Treat.
The Mechano-Treat is a tasty treat that small robots might enjoy and can be made by Pascal-K1N6 once you have uploaded the blueprint into his database. This blueprint I got from Bonepicker, but it also drops from The Scrap King, Ol' Big Tusk and Gorged Gear-Cruncher. It costs 100 spare parts to make 5 treats which are soulbound so you unfortunately cannot buy or sell them on the auction house. There are no comments about these having any effect on other pets and I tried feeding them to some of my mechanical battle pets but it just said invalid target.
Use 1 Energy Cell to revive Scrappy who will jump up, bark happily and nuzzle your leg. Then feed him a Mechano-Treat and you will get the achievement.

First views of Nazjatar and Mechagon
First Pet Drops
First up Nazjatar. Deep inside the Darkwater Cavern in the south of the zone is Blindlight (37:82) the Necrofin Chieftain. He dropped the pet Necrofin Tadpole which is a humanoid pet and is really cute with a yellow fin and glowing green eyes.

This made me think there may be multiple colours of other pet drops too, let me know in the comments if you come across any and also what were your thoughts of Mechagon and Nazjatar initially and if your views have changed now its a few weeks on. Happy pet hunting.
