The third official expansion pack for World of Warcraft is on the way and should be here by the end of the year. So, understandably, there are players everywhere trying to prepare for the new content by putting together lists of things to get done before the expansion launches. Here are three that every good player should consider.

1.    Your Achievements – There are plenty of achievements that will become feats of strength soon, so get in there and complete them while you still can. Almost all of the questing and exploration achievements in Azeroth are expected to be backed up a bit when the game makes the leap forward (no confirmation on this), and many raid accomplishments may be nerfed soon.

2.    Stop Farming – When we get within 2-3 months of Cataclysm, farming for gold will be a tricky business. As more info comes out about Cataclysm and what will be nerfed (pretty much everything), the value of those items will drop sharply, as it did before Wrath. Stop farming old world ores, gems, herbs, and skins unless you specifically need them. Don’t stockpile anything that cannot be immediately used or you’ll only be wasting valuable game time.

3.    Old World Leveling – If you’ve never levelled up an Orc or a Human now is the time to do it. For that matter, any race you’ve yet to play should be run through – at least up to level 15 or so, to get an idea of what the old world levelling was originally built as. Soon, those levelling sequences and starting areas will be completely overhauled as the game is rebuilt from the ground up.

Cataclysm will bring a lot of changes and only those that are truly ready will be able to take full advantage of them. If you create a nice list of tasks to complete and properly prepare to complete them all, you’ll be well on your way to dominating the content that so many other players will be struggling through on launch day.
