FINALLY! Lost in the Deeps Daily in Deepholm

Deep Into Deepholm Completed: 115/125

Finally, almost two weeks since Cataclysm drops, I finally get the Lost in the Deeps daily in Deepholm. What's weird is I thought I had some kind of quest or achievement bug. I got the Deep Into Deepholm achievement, but it says that I have completed 125 quests in Deepholm. Well, clicking on it, it says I have completed 115/125, though it does say that I finished this 12/9/10.

Being a good player, I put in a ticket. I also worried and searched for the missing 10 quests with no results. In frustration, I asked other players if they got the achievement, and everyone had similar stories: they have the achievement, but with 115-117 quests. Turns out the extra couple quests are from Jewelcrafting recipe quests that drop from random mobs. One of these quests becomes a very nice trinket that tanks would be definitely interested in.

Pebbles and I take out a Gyreworm.

Bubbling with giddiness that I am not, in fact, Lost In the Deeps challenged, I picked up all the Therazane dailies and headed down to the Crumbling Depths. Going around as normal, and half-heartedly killing gyreworms and picking up my Painite Motes. I was too excited to really waste time. I found Pebbles on a ledge, green swirly light swirling down around him. Speaking with him, he happily follows behind me.

I admit, I gave it the old college try and attempted to kill a couple gyreworms. Pebbles pitched in too, and the gyreworms attacked him. Fearful of my little friend, I decided to just skip all pretense and finish the quest. I mean, I'm exalted already and I don't need the extra reputation.

Now, I have been running the dailies for eight days now. I have mastered the center ring by easily finding the small ramp to get over that rocky hump with my mount. But this time, I was either too cocky or too slow. The worm caught me.

Pyrite Stonetender, The Lost In The Deeps

Despite reports of losing Pebbles when you reach the big gyreworm that tosses you around in the front center circle, I did not lose Pebbles even though I did get Consumption. When I was dropped off near the entrance, Pebbles was there with me. Mounting on my ZG Tiger Mount, I headed to the cave entrance where Pebbles found freedom.

One Lost In The Deeps daily down, nine more to go, then I would have made the Rock Lover achievement and got the super cute Pebbles pet!
