Higher Learning
One of our bloggers previously mentioned the achievement Higher Learning, which comes with an adorable NC pet. Today I wanted to share a resource I've been using to remind me when books are available to read. Its an addon called called Dalaran University. It used to be a companion to the Higher Learning addon which is no longer supported. This addon works best if many people on your server have it installed, because it doesn't remember information after you've logged off. When you long on however the addon will sync spawn times with other users letting you know when you need to return to Dalaran and wait.
One confusing aspect to the addon, is that it is never accurate when you are in a dungeon. The new LFG system combined with the change in servers for the 5-mans means you can't trust the spawn times when you are doing your daily heroic. I've found popping back to Dalaran between dungeons helps me keep track of how long I have until I need to sit on the spawn point.
The addon has 3 bar colors to let you know what to expect. Red means that the book could spawn at any time. Yellow means that it could spawn and someone is sitting in Dalaran watching it (Someone who has the addon and is within a certain radius of spawn point). Green means the book spawned, and is on cool down. If you hover over a specific book's bar it will tell you how long you have in its current color. If there is no color, that means no one has observed the book spawn, so the addon doesn't have any information to predict when it will return. (This is why getting many people on the server to download the add-on is helpful)
The text also lets you know what books you need to read (white text), and which books you've already read (gray). This saves you time if you have alts who each have read and not read different books.
So try out the addon and see if it makes getting Higher Learning a little bit easier for you. And if you are on my server just download it to help me out ;D.
Every Thursday Eiseldora will write a post with tips and links to resources you can use to help you reach your achievement goals. This segment will be called Achievement Toolbox.
