I’m a casual WoW player and I’ve always kind of found my own goals in the game. I don’t raid much, don’t do mythic dungeons, but I do like having a goal to work towards.

I haven’t had much time to play DragonFlight but I do love the isles, flying, and how rich the quests are.

My current goal is maxing out renown.

I’ve ground rep before, getting flying in every expansion for example, but this seems like a lot. I didn’t finish the rep grind in Shadowlands, because I just lost interest in that world.

What other goals are there in DragonFlight that might be rewarding the same way? Just something fun that’s worth working towards. Could be a dumb engineering toy, or title, for example.

(Yeah this is kind of a contrived first kbin post, but it’s also a real question). Thanks.

    Renown is absolutely a goal you can set for yourself. There’s events that grant a large portion of reputation all the time, and most of the weekly quests center around getting that. There’s a lot of cosmetic rewards and dragonflying tweaks!

    Getting Loremaster and finishing all the side quests could also be a worthy goal. There’s a lot of side stories in the Isles that they put a lot of work into for story line that fleshes out the world.

    For that matter, going back to the first point, renown also unlocks some of the major follow on story beats. The one that takes you out to the Emerald Dragonshrine was very good.

    Professions are kind of a mixed bag. Leveling them up to 50 is easy. Beyond that it is expensive and tedious. There’s a decent chance that someone who has done nothing else but level their profession will be able to craft better than you can for those hard to get points later on, but there’s some fun things in there you can make for yourself if you are an engineer.

    You’ve probably already done this, but getting all the dragonflying upgrades is a worthy side task.

    You could work on doing all the races forwards and backwards.

    Hope that helps!

      I haven’t gotten the dragonflying upgrades - I’m taking a casual approach to that, chasing them down when I run across them but not actively seeking them out. I have enough upgrades now that I get around fine.

      Races is a good one, I’ve done a few of those but definitely not all.

      Only thing I really grinned professions for was Blingtron and there isn’t one this time (yet?) so I’ll leave that for later.

      Thanks!
