How is your Garrison doing, how many max followers?

    I haven't gotten too far with my garrison unfortunately since I used resources to level my character asap. Now that I've capped, I'm going back to build it up better and to get my followers up to speed.

    It really is an addicting little side game, thankfully it slows down a bit. For the first few weeks, you are doing mostly 30 minute to 2 hour type missions, which means if you are a bit OCD, you are constantly logging back in to send your followers on new missions. But once you get all of your followers to lvl 100, it slows down and most of your missions are 12 hours and even then there aren“t many you need to do.

    I have a full 645 follower garrison on one of my characters. Thanks to masterplan addon, I just log in, post missions and come back after 12hours. So far it's the best character in terms of gear and I seem to get an average of 1/2 epics per week. Also the gold is pretty sweet as a passive income.

    My mission queues are nuts because I've neglected the garrison in favor of leveling haha. It's good know that they slow down considerably after reaching cap. I wish that I could build more facilities in the garrison since it seems rather limited, but I guess they did that on purpose to make players level up alts.

    Yeah, I am stuck now also. I want to do some stuff with alts, but you have to level them up to unlock the bigger garrison and higher level buildings.

    I pretty much have an end game garrison and there is not much to do to be honest. I just log on the char, send followers and logout.

    I'm not as interested in the garrisons as everyone else. I dabble with it on a regular basis, but I don't really pay that much attention to it.

    I'm more interested in the mounts/pets that they offer than the other stuff. It's still a nifty addition, just wish they would make it more interactive. Welp gotta work on those alts to get what I want. @_@;

    I haven't opened the pet menagerie yet. Worth it? I have almost every other building at max level though.

    The pet menagerie is ok for a short amount of time ( a few weeks) because you can get like 8 pets from it once it is lvl 3. But once you have those 8 pets, which you will get in a week or two of dailies, it is pretty worthless if you did any pet battling in MoP. If you are new to pets, then it will give you a lot of buff foods for pet exp, but most of use as swarmed with that stuff from last expansion.

    Ah that's good to know because I missed all of MoP. Wasn't into the whole panda thing and whatnot.

    I have been loving the garrison dynamic in this expansion. Right now I have 20/20 followers and 14 of them are level 100. I'm trying to work on getting their ilevels up so they can loot me some epic gear. I just found out about the masterplan add-on and its amazing because it skips those rewards animations on your follower missions. I'm trying to get my buildings all to level 3 but its a slow process. I can't wait to get new mounts from my stables and I think that the side quests from Frostwall tavern are pretty neat. One of them gave me the "Oralius Whispering Crystal" which increases all my stats by 200 for one hour with only a 15 minute cooldown. You definitely get a ton of perks from the garrison if you use it properly.. I just wish I could auto-mine.

    On my main I've got all of my followers maxed and epic'ed. I have a few more max level characters that are still working on their garrisons. I have to say on the toon that has all the maxed followers, my garrison has gotten pretty boring, unfortunately.

    Yeah, the missions are a bit undynamic.. so you make sure you have a set team that can handle all the important missions, then you just wait for one to pop up. I think the followers mini-game is basically already over.. they will add more top level missions, but it will just be arranging your guys right.. nothing really interseting.

    The boss spawns in garrison are pretty neat, but other than that, most of the gameplay has died as it relates to garrisons.

    I think they just made a bit mistake by making each mission static. You never have to think after the first time.. you set up a team and go. And since they allowed add-ons that basically tell you what team to use, it really is just signing in, pushing a button an signing out.. there is no thinking or gameplay involved.
