I didn't use QH until this add-on. I actually find it annoying, but I'm not sure if it is just that I haven't figured it out quite yet, or it is just a PITA.
And I guess I need to run Nexus a few time to get the Green hat for the Winter Veil accomplishment. This is turning out to be an annoying World Event because I didn't skill up my cooking (or fishing) but to make the "Hot Apple Cider" I need to get my cooking skill to 325.
And apparently I need a new computer. I've always had brutal frame rates in Shat/Dal or any city where it gets busy. Yesterday I was in a group that tried to raid Ogrimarr (the "For the Alliance" achievement) and it was like trying to play using a slide show.
Charge!
Follow the group
Enter the city
Notice things have gotten REALLY bad, check latency/Framrate. 178 (good)/ 4 (very bad)
Stay in middle of group
Stay in middle of group
Where did the group go, and why am I falling?
OK, so I rode off the cliff and now alone in the middle of Ogrimarr.
Cast Invis, get to a safe spot.
Try to figure out where the heck I'm supposed to go.
Make a run for it.
Mana Shield - Frost Nova - Blink - Nova - Mana shield - die
Start run back to corpse.
Note all people in raid chat asking why they can't see anyone else
Note all the cursing in raid chat that those people are on a phased quest chain
Note all the people not understanding why they still can't see anyone even though it has been explained many, many of times
Finally get back to body, find safe place to rez.

Wait a minute while realizing raid has fallen apart.
Teleport to Theramore.
Watch people quit raid as raid leader curses all the "Quitters"
Watch as the raid quit/add becomes 2/1, 3/1, 4/0
Leave the party.
