For completing The Traveler’s Diary in January, you will receive the Green Clockwork Contraptions set. This batch of mechanical weapons looks great and is a great selection of items to add to your collection. If you prefer a sunnier color scheme, you can purchase all weapons separately in the Tendera store. There’s also an outfit available to match both color schemes, though you probably won’t be able to afford it all if you don’t collect deals. And let’s be real; none of us are that robust.

The fastest way to complete this month’s adventure journal

In most cases, you’ll earn plenty of points toward your goal of 1,000 just by playing normally. If you want to blast through them as quickly as possible to get those shiny fresh rewards, we understand. That’s why we’ve prepared a list of the best ways to earn these points. Timewalking offers quick and simple points whenever it is available. And since Turbulent Timeways is currently ongoing, there will be a different Time Travel event every week for the next few months. Knocking them out every week for simple points shouldn’t be a problem. Swap Pandaria for Draenor for next week and so on.

  • Defeat the bosses on the Mermaid Islands – 100 points – This is something you should probably be doing anyway to get all the bonuses on Siren Isle, such as high-level gear and fresh mounts.
  • Open 5 Runic Storm stashes – 70 points – Similarly, they are very simple to find on a petite island. While hiking, you will see a golden trail that will lead you to one of them.
  • Time Walk: Complete 15 quests in Pandaria – 100 points – Until January 14, you can complete simple tasks in Pandaria or Pandaria Dungeons to earn an simple 100 points.
  • Timewalking: Defeat 5 Mists of Pandaria raid bosses – 100 points – By January 14, defeat several elderly raid bosses with max level characters. Great for breeding elderly transmogs and mounts.
  • A Walk Through Time: Collect herbs, ores, skins and fish in Pandaria – 100 points – Until January 14, collecting resources in Pandaria can get you a quick stack of points. Level up some elderly competitions along the way!
  • Timewalking: Complete 1 Mists of Pandaria Timewalking dungeon – 25 points – Progressing through any dungeon over time is very simple. Additionally, complete another 4 dungeons to earn 100 points.
  • Defeat 25 dungeon bosses – 100 points – If you complete 5 Pandaria dungeons via time travel, you’re mostly done with this. Go and polish a few more dungeons and be done with it. Note: These don’t have to be levels within a level, so you can just for fun go into the elderly dungeons solo to get them.
  • Defeat 5 raid bosses – 50 points – For these you can easily complete older raids yourself. This is a great way to acquire elderly transmogs and earn points. If you defeat 20 raid bosses, you will receive 100 more points!
  • Darkmoon Fair: Balloon + Pony = Fun – 50 points – Hold the balloon and ride Darkmoon the pony around the fair. A stupid goal for a few quick points!
  • Darkmoon Fair: Eat some breaded corn sausage after the ride – 25 points – Buy groceries from a retailer and find a ride. It’s easier than chasing a corndog after a real ride.
