Herb Gathering in Northrend.

Well for those of you that are gathering herbs for either alchemy, inscription or just for profit. Here are 2 maps showing the spots for the most abundant of the herbs for the northrend zone.  I do these to exclusively as they both provide the most herbs in the shortest amount of time.

Essentially you could stay around the water in Sholazar and find herbs continously but sometimes they do become a little scarce, this is why I head up along the west side and come back to the water. Here you will find, Adder's Tongue, Goldclover, tiger's lily and on gathering any of those you have a chance to get Deadnettle's.

 

In Storm peaks the area that I love to hit is just slightly west of Dun Niffelem and alot to the east and north of there.  Here you come across Lichbloom and Icethron.

Both places your gather will give you a chance to get a Frost lotus, which you have a 0.04% chance in Sholazar and 0.05% chance to get in Storm Peaks.

I don't have any hard data on how many stacks I get per hour yet, but will when the gf is out I will hop on my druid the do an hours run in each area,  suffice to say my guild gets a little sick of my spamming Gatherer info to them when I am either zones.  

I'll also break it down to how many Frost Lotus's I end up also will get a break down on what amount i could possibly make in the ah, but then again those would be my ah pricing which might be different then yours.

Till then,  Later.

A wee break

Took a few days off from playing Wow to play some old skool EQ. There is a group of people out there that set up their own server. Called project 1999, this server has only the first eq available. They will be adding 2 other expansion's, Ruins of Kunark and Scars of Velius, and leave it at that.

Great thing is is that they didn't change much from those time lines. They did add a serverwide /ooc, as it can get someone lonley in some zone. There are about 400 people or so that play there with an average of 200 people on most times.

I going to be popping back and forth between wow and eq, as I am leveling the shaman with my gf's warrior and when she isn't logged on I'll be in eq.

Later all.

Making gold in Wow, the easy way.

So you're wanting to make some gold in WoW?  Well I'll give you some tips free of charge.

Some of the stuff that I am going to go over is covered in the gold guides as they are just providing you with imformation that is available to anyone that can think.

The best professions to get to make money easy and fast are the Gathering Prof's.  These would be Herbalism, Mining and Skinning.  Although fishing is also regarded as gathering it is a secondary prof that anyone can learn but people still buy the fish to help level up cooking.

In regards to gathering the best 2 are Herbalism and Mining.  The reason is simple. There are 3 prof's that rely on Mining and 2 that rely on Herbalism.  This means that you are supplying mats for 5 professions giving you a bigger selling market to work with.

You can get these prof's at level 5 and from there you can make some nice gold as you level.  In the begining depending on your market stacks of copper ore, peacebloom and silverleaf will sell for about 50s - 2g  a stack however when you go higher the stacks will start selling for more. 

I would suggest getting Auctioneer addon as this can help you see what the market is like.  Help you undercut the competition and keep track of prices. You can post mutiple listings with just one click instead of one at a time as wow's AH interface works.

I would also suggest keep all the Linen cloth and especially the wool cloth, put all this in the AH. Wool cloth is used to get rep with individual cities and can sell for 5-9g in the AH depending on how flooded it is.

Any green items that drop that your class can't use should go into the AH, with auctioneer you will have a rough idea on what the base price should be and depending how many are in there you can gauge on if you should mark it up from there or drop it.

For those wanting help in where to go to get your profession skills up I would suggest Wow Professions web site.  Easy to use and shows the easiest and cheapest way to level all the prof's.

What bugs me most in Game.

What really bugs me to no end is gold sellers and their spam/whispers wanting us to visit such and such a site to buy gold for use in game.


Most times the scam is you visit the site to buy some gold. When you get there a keylogger is now on your computer. So you now pay x amount of real life dollars for x amount of pixel gold.


After a while you find that your account has been hacked and you've lost the crap you bought with the gold you bought. All of your characters are now broke, and you spend a god awful amount of time waiting for Blizzard to get you your characters back.


I laugh and will not show any pitty on some twit that lost their account this way. Although none have the balls to admit that they were stupid fools and deserved this.


So save yourself some time, grief and money and just ignore any site or in game message stating that they are selling gold. It is just not worth the headache.


Also I would suggest anyone and everyone get an Authenticator, this thing is golden and will protect your account from unauthorized access. As a bonus you get this companion.

The End!

Not Really the End, just a note to hold over until I get things organized.
