I wish the griffon hatchling didn't have an alliance shield on its chest, but I love it to death anyway. :ninja: If I buy anything, that will probably be it right now. I love that it's not only a pet, but you get an actual plushie. *oozes with cuteness*

As for the Alliance vs. the Horde... I agree with Arkkath, to a point. I play on both sides though, and love my guilds on either side. Both sides have trolls, and both sides have "honorable" players. Alliance does tend to have a reputation, though.

I did it!!

I finally got the Lore master Achievement. My bf was on when it happened too. He was like congrats baby...I still think your crazy for doing that. He's very casual. Still at 84 on our horde server. But he's a good player.

I've been tempted a few times to buy those pets in the blizzard store. I always snap out of it though when I go to the "buy it now" cart and decide not to. Make I'll get the charity one though.

Wow, that's an awesome one. Congrats!

I'll admit, I'm sort of a WoW newb. About five years ago, I played it obsessively for a while, got up to level fifty or so, and ran out of money. D:

But I'm really getting into it again, to the point that I forget I'm leaving my friends in the dust when I level. xD

yeah, then there's my sister...she leveled her warlock from 80-85 on purely archaeology then wondered why she felt burnt out on wow after hitting 85. Silly girl.

I had problems going threw and levelling Archaeology at all. Very grindy even for wow. But I guess that because we had all those levels to catch up on since we didn't have it fro the beginning.

You know, I haven't started on Archeology at all! D: I probably should soon. My Cooking and Fishing are pretty low, too. My First Aid is as high as I can get it at my level, and my Blacksmithing and Mining are nearly there.

I maxed out all my professions on my main. My alts are scattered everywhere. I don't really work on the secondary professions for the alts but The main ones I do. it helps support my other professions.

Oh wow grats on Loremaster!

When working on professions, I find it so hard to level them while still leveling my character.
I'm a altaholic, so I've leveled lots of toons and now how to get through it pretty quickly. If I'm trying to run around and pick herbs or whatever, it just slows me down.
I like to wait until I'm max level and I can just fly around, collecting the mats I need.
As long as there aren't other people out farming the more rare mats, I can easily level a profession to 525 in a day.

Archaeology is pretty interesting. If you go at it long enough, you can get some pretty awesome things.
I'm still trying to get my Qiraji Battle Tank mount.

Thank-you. It was pretty cool. :D I think it's the one tittle I'm going to stick with. I have a lot of them from rep grinds and annual events to choose from. However, since it took so long I think Loremaster will stick. But who knows.

I wonder if they'll upgrade Loremaster in some how next expansion when more quests come out. O.o Uber Loremaster? Seasoned Loremaster? Or maybe add the names they have for professions in front of them. What are they Master, Grand Master ect. ect. (not sure of the order) Though...Master Loremaster sound odd. Maybe colours or gem stones? Since the Tabard is called "colours of the LoreMaster".... Emerald Loremaster would be perfect for an Emerald dream expansion. It is kinda long though. Hmm.

I do want to get all the pets and new mounts from Archaeology too but I hate flying from place to place. And I keep seeing Night elf stuff from some reason. It takes SO long to travel even with my maxed out flight speed and mount. Then again now that I have Loremaster I'll have nothing better to do till the fire festival. . .so what the heck. My new mission has been stated!

I've been pretty slack on my alts secondary proofs. I'll the the dailies for gold and get a skill up that way but have never went on a fishing trip or meat hunt for them yet. First aid is easy to get stuff for though so it levels up as I do. My characters and profs are:

Nephila the 85 Forsaken Priestess: 525/525 Tailoring/mining (minging cuz of the cha ching) Maxed secondaries
Nephzilla the 85 Orcish Warrior: 525/525 Jewelcrafting/mining secondaries not past 300
Blixie the 78 Goblin Rogue: 479/525 Alchemy 459/525 herbilism secondaries around 450
Scarabi the 49 Troll Druid: Not over 300 Herbalism/mining to support my other professions and make extra money

Seeing how close Blixie is to 85 makes me want to level her more now. lol. I wonder if she could handle Cata zones...

Does anyone have a good suggestion on how to speed up leveling Enchanting? It was suggested to me by a guildie to compliment tailoring but dear lord it is a pain to level!

Tailoring does go with enchanting very well.
As you level tailoring, you can disenchant the things you make.

Another method, although more time consuming, is to be leveling multiple characters and whenever you come across a green or higher that's BoE, just send it to your enchanter.

If you're doing dungeons, make sure you select the greed option on items you don't need as an upgrade, rather than the disenchant option. That option doesn't give you a skill up if it gets disenchanted and the mats might go to someone else, so you're better off greeding it then disenchanting it yourself.

All in all, it is one of the harder professions to level, but you can make some nice gold with it at max level. That along with jewelcrafting.

yup tailoring would probably be best for it.

Only a week or so left to the fire festival. *squee* I can't wait to finally have that meta achievement. I'm trying to get a lot of the art I want to do this month done before then so I can concentrate on it.

Hmm I want a smoothie though. I think we have strawberries too. *scampers off*

The fire festival is pretty fun, but by far Brewfest and Hallow's End are my favourites.

Aww that sucks D:
You might want to do some searching for a late night guild.
You might even have to change servers if you really want to find one.

I would have done that already if it weren't for the fact that the only reason my bf rolled on that server was because of me. I'd feel bad saying...honey we need to move servers this one sucks. Hmmm unless of course I paid for his transfer. But then with all four of my girls and his 1... What is that $125 American. OUCH. I think cost is what's keeping me.

I guess the next major thing I'll be doing is grinding out the 10 000 fishing thing and cooking 5000 recipes. Our guild is at 1200ish for fishing and 2500 ish for cooking. It'll be the only thing left for me other than critter killer. Till 4.2 anyway, but that doesn't seem very casual friendly other than a new faction to grinds dailies on (big deal)

So it's either that or what you said...either would be better than complaining about on Mene. XD How nub of me. XD


All I can do is hold out and hope our guild will be back for 4.3 I was made an officer, So I suppose I could try inviting more people too. Heck I could say it's a late night guild when I invite them. I just feel weird doing it because I think it's only temporary for when the main guild leaders are back from doing whatever.

However, it's to the Art desk with me till the bf is home.

Yikes $125 would definitely make it very hard for me to change servers too.
If you really want to get the most out of WoW, you can't really be playing it casually lol. There's a ton of stuff to do end game both is pve and pvp.

What you could do is maybe start a late night group within your guild. That way you could stay on your server and in your guild and potentially start some late night activity.

I use the term "casual" very loosely and only because I don't like raiding. Sure I like to do dungeons here and there but getting 10-25 people that all know what they're doing is stressful and not fun. At least grinding dailies I get the mindless detachment I need from my day.

I play it every-other day, just about for 2-3 hours. I know people that play it all day everyday like 5-8 hour (in my bfs alliance guild) I just don't find doing the same bosses with different skins fun any more.

I'm currently looking into some "out" options. That are *kinda* like wow but fresh and new. I know they just re-did the whole of Azeroth...but I've done the new 1-60 on 2.5 toons already (horde and alliance). It doesn't take long to get old for an altaholic. XD(I'm sure you know)

I think they need mini games...like if Archeoplogy was more of a mini game. Than a grind feast it would have been amazing. Maybe the "Dance Studio" will a mini game...when ever they add that. Like with DDR type <V>^ to learn them. Though I think the dances might end up being the new mounts. since I can't really see them putting in an even faster mount speed...they might but who knows. I know lots of people that would by the female NE dance for their male Orcs for the Lulz. I could see like 1000g to learn a dance from some goblin/be dance instructor.

Or they could flesh crafting out instead of the bear bone system we have now and add guild housing. *drool* Guild achievements we a step in the right direction though. Blah I guess it's a "stay tunned" kinda game.

I'm a cata-baby and that whole Silverpine quest line got me addicted. I was disappointed with the blood elf quests, they were boring compared to the undead ones and didn't have those quests you could turn in without walking back. I got over it though, I felt like I was kinda spoiled with the awesome undead quests. My first character was an undead hunter, got her to lvl 62 and left her alone since. But I've tried a lot of things over the 7 months I've been playing. My only character I got to 85 was a blood elf paladin because I found tanking so much more fun and challenging than other roles. But I just started leveling a feral (lvl 67 atm) and like bear tanking so much more. Plus the forms are cute, especially for trolls. And I love how agi is a nice all-in-one stat. Although I have people say I "ninja" on stuff saying I need str (useless since 4.2) and stam more. Even without heirlooms I could pull aggro off of anyone doing too much dps. I just got heirlooms for my bear though, everything but the trinkets. But I'll get the trinkets soon since I'm working on getting valor for that new pally dress anyway.

Does anyone else play Lightning's Blade (Horde)? You can find me on Alearie (my paladin) mostly. Kya is my druid.

Sorry Sammie I'm on Hellscream. I'm glad your enjoying tanking and the game in-general. A lot of people jump to the "ninja" thing when they loss a fair roll. I wouldn't put to much thought into it. I used to love healing for people, now I find it annoying. I mostly play as shadow now. I've been around since the beta. while the game has changed a lot since then i'm not really one to complain about it. Archaeology could be a bit less grindy though... lol

The reason for the quests is because the original 1-60 were redone in Cata. The Blood Elf and Draenei starting zones were added in The Burning Crusade expansion and are still out of date. I'm sure in time, those quests along with Outland and eventually Northrend too will be redone and updated.

I play on Thunderlord. My guild just downed Shannox in Firelands last night and We're going to attempt Beth'Tilac tonight.
