Otherwise you can go to lower jade forest and just head out to the land mass you see in the distance. Do not worry about fatigue, you should reach it before you have any issues. I had to do that my first time back because I forgot to pick up the flight path.<br /><br />Be careful not to land in the horde camp. That can be painful. I've done that too. The alliance camp is near the bottom of the map, safer to aim there when flying.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-52271339043456056662014-01-29T13:03:46.882-05:002014-01-29T13:03:46.882-05:00ok, now to find this timeless island. thanks agai...ok, now to find this timeless island. thanks again,<br /><br />-roo-abhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14899567485973250660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-3319630885513535242014-01-29T07:56:35.858-05:002014-01-29T07:56:35.858-05:00I'll see if I can find a short list.

Also treasure chests all over. So getting enough is just a matter of spending the time.<br /><br />When facing shao, the guy that gives you the kill 20 elites quest, the person that sells the weapons is on the left of him.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-35567674551358769352014-01-28T18:20:26.967-05:002014-01-28T18:20:26.967-05:00inscription bop.

I'd get an average of 1 a week across ALL toons with a decent amount of killing going on. I'm hoping it continues, too... does seem to be the point in the expansion where they can ramp something like that up a bit.Rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-91030431154407426342014-01-23T15:43:29.891-05:002014-01-23T15:43:29.891-05:00I wish I had that luck.

Went on my paladin (my only character under 515 sitting at 499) and figured I would get a few pieces for it so went burden hunting.<br /><br />Joined with 2 guild mates, both over 560 so they do not need burdens. Over the course of some grinding and rare killing one got 2 the other got 3 and my paladin that needed them gets none.<br /><br />So I do not see an increased drop rate, at least for the characters that actually can use them.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-16001711852122852782014-01-23T12:49:05.453-05:002014-01-23T12:49:05.453-05:00Speaking of drop rates, I've seen a ridiculous...Speaking of drop rates, I've seen a ridiculous uptick in Burden drops this week across all toons (one toon got 3 in 4 kills and I've picked up at least 9 this week so far)... anyone else seeing that or should I just enjoy the brief RNG burst?

I still need a lot of them including a lot of the tradable ones and you are talking to someone that has one character with over 400K coins and 4 others with over 100K coins, so it is not like I have not killed an entire universe of mobs.<br /><br />TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-57906007909599248322014-01-21T12:27:50.768-05:002014-01-21T12:27:50.768-05:00Oh hell yeah, so selling the patterns or the glyph...Oh hell yeah, so selling the patterns or the glyphs will be a winner all around.

The DMF turn-in items were good to me earlier in the expansion (I'd buy for 20-50g at the end of the DMF and sell at the start of the next one for 5-10x that), holiday pets are always good for that (although that market has dried up a lot since pets went account-wide, by now most people have them), expansion-specific pets (first I can recall taking advantage of personally were the ones from the Oracles egg in Wrath), etc.<br /><br />Crafted mounts and pets are going to be interesting going forward... thinking specifically about the recent engineering ones (Sky Golem, etc). Are people still going to do the daily Eng cooldown in WoD? Where will the Living Steel come from, assuming that's on the same CD with whatever xmute shows up in WoD (as it is currently with Living Elements, that's still on the current shared CD)? Will Blizz take that off the CD or will the price on Living Steel jack up significantly (and supply dry up, most likely)? I'm considering stockpiling Sky Golems that others put up, I could easily see the price on those doubling or more in WoD *IF* Blizzard doesn't make them more easily craftable.<br /><br />I find those types of markets interesting to play in... I can also afford to be wrong, which helps. :)<br /><br />Those TI pets are another obvious candidate, yep. To this point I'm still generally selling them when I get them (the prices are high enough for farmable items, IMO) but at some point, especially if the prices drop, I can see becoming a buyer for those.<br /><br />The glyphs I'm not so sure about, on a server with an active glyph market where selling them is a positive experience rather than my typical "why the hell do I keep wasting my time with this shit?" experience, stockpiling might be worthwhile. Me, I'll probably just wait until later in the expansion, buy all the cheapish recipes that I don't have and buy out any glyphs I need, by then the prices should have stabilized at something reasonable. Buy once, have forever. Stupid profession model, that.Rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-84802100717315503122014-01-21T10:52:39.853-05:002014-01-21T10:52:39.853-05:00re the Glyphs. there will definitely be a bumper m...re the Glyphs. there will definitely be a bumper market for them with all the new lvl 90 characters that are going to appearThunder Blufferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00799475738271920399noreply@blogger.com
