    Happy: Awesome new weapon is awesome!

    Sad: We still suck at passing around the DPS buffs on Hodir. DPS was something like 7k, 6k, 6k, 5k, 5k, 3k, 3k. :(

    Silver and Gold: I started this alt on a new server, with no imported heirlooms or gear or gold. To be self-sufficient, I've been profiting through mining, mostly Bronze Bars, but I noticed the prices of Silver Ore, collected a stack, and just sold it.

    One stack of silver ore is worth over 25% of the total gold I'd made off auctions up to that point.

    I am leveling up a Tauren Hunter, had leveled my cooking past stringy wolf meat and decided to sell a stack in the AH. I was stunned when I saw it was in the AH for more then 16g a stack. I decided to stick with the market price and was very pleased the next day when I had 16g waiting for me in the mail.

    Did you do the dungeon set 2 chain? It's pricy, but it's also a quick way to bang out 20 or so quests. You remembered the new Draenei settlement in Ashenvale near the green dragon, yeah? Also, Desolace.

    The sad thing is the .5 armour quests aka dungeon set 2 don't count as quests for the 3k or loremaster achievement or they did not when I was working on them with my warlock


    My blood elf ret paladin and priest now are in outland but I just go around farming metal for profit on them

    They're vulnerable to aoe as well. I suggest a can of *hairspray and a lighter.

    Hate: Random dcs are being more rampant. I got disconnected 2 days ago just as I was about to pull anub, I was being a joker and pulling with Starfire, and I wasn't sure if the cast had gone off or not.
    Last night one of the best healers in mah guild was disconnecting randomly, and when he DC's I always tend to die in some terrible way. I think Blizzard /randoms and disconnects 1-2 people in our 25m H TOCs just to make it harder.

    Anyone else having similar results?

    Meh: Tried the WG trick mentioned earlier for levelling weaponskill. It certainly does work to an extent, however I had trouble finding more than one mob total out of the 4 graveyards that was in range of my warrior's gun. This may have been because horde owned wg so I couldn't try the guards at the southern workshops.

    Meh: I have ZG down to a science now as far as killing Bloodlord, the raptors, and Thekal to farm the mounts and the raptor pet, but I honestly think I'd hit exalted with Zandalar before I see any of them (I'm at around 9k through honored, but I haven't turned in the armor quests yet, and have a ton of coins and bijous saved up).

    I pulled aggro about 30-40 seconds into the fight and had to use shatter then - no pallies in the raid, our MT used to be a warrior, so vigilance helped a lot, but he switched his main to his DK so none of that for me.

    I'm so glad I switched my main tank from a Paladin to a Warrior so I can Vig the hunters in our raids. =) Our other tank is a Paladin so he's got the hand of salv ready. The only person I've seen get over 10k on our 10 man Hodir is a combat rogue though. Unfortunately my alt is the best geared lock in our guild. =/

    Zuluhed. Backwoods fucking server. There was actually another guild that had done Yogg and was pretty well progressed through hard modes, but they all transferred to another server. I don't remember which one, but it's a big enough one that they'll be pretty mediocre. There's an alliance guild that I think has done Yogg 25, but of the top 5 guilds on Zulu, 4 are horde.

    Happy: Dragged my 10 man kicking and screaming at hodir, thorim and steelbreaker. I switched to my pally, and the rogue switched to his pally to give melee buffs before relogging.

    Results? Missed Hodir by 2 seconds, Thorim, tanks didn't transition on near 10% and got gibbed, at 5% the second died due to gib (they arent especially well geared) and I lightening bolt spammed our way to the achievement. Steel breaker went considerably better.

    Sad: They really need to release 3.2.2.2.2.2.2.2 sooner, I have like 120 triumph badges sitting on my resto shaman... I mean cmon, the resto tier gear is bleh at best and I want my bracers :(
