Except for raids, I have hardly played my druid lately. I'll log on to make some bags or disenchant some greens for resale, run a circle in Dalaran, post my guild recruiting macro, think about doing the daily heroic, realize I don't need any more badges, and log off.
Theoretically there are things I could do but none of them really interest me. I could do battlegrounds, but healing battlegrounds without at least one heavily armored buddy is frustrating and thankless--and my usual battleground buddies seem to hardly be on any more. Arena would require constant re-specs and rebinding my keys, and is generally frustrating. At this point in the game, Arena players fall into two categories: the very experienced and those who "just want 10 games". Last time I tried to get into Arena I couldn't find partners that were close to my level of skill who also wanted to get better and who weren't jerks.
I could do old quests, but doing quests I out level doesn't capture my imagination (and I keep thinking that I could do it on an alt and actually gain something by it).
There is only one achievement I care about right now and it's Starcaller. It seems hard to find people to do that with, and I don't have the key for Algalon, so to do it I'd have to first gather a group to do the hardmodes and get keyed. I'm not sure if I care that much.
My shaman, too, doesn't have much to do outside of raids. I try to run the daily heroic on her to slowly build up for a 4-piece, but since she's not my main my patience for rudeness or stupidity is pretty low. I run Heroic Halls of Reflection for the snowflake trinket when I have the will to roll the dice on that instance. It's 50/50 whether it will bring out the best or the worst in players. Smart play, learning from mistakes and heroic perseverance or ingrained stupidity and horrible rudeness?
Thus, most of my /played has been on my priest in the last couple of weeks. I've been deliberately trying to quest through zones that I haven't played through before. That will have its own post, possibly with screenshots, soon.
