Twenty Days Of WoW - Day 2: Why You Decided To Start A Blog

19:25 | Posted by | Edit Post
I decided to start my blog as at the time, I was doing a lot of gold making, and I thought it would be great to share my tips and tricks with friends, and have a log of how things proceeded.

 Somehow though, my blog has evolved from being a primarily WoW gold related blog, to one that contains some real life rants and moans. The content probably isn't that interesting, but if I inspire just one person, or help just one person get started in gold making, then I shall be happy.

 I tried blogging in the past, and it didnt work out so well for me. It felt strange writing about me on the internet. This time however, since I chose a subject that was gameplay related rather than personal, it seems to be going much better.

Farming Favourites: Green Belt - Wetlands

09:30 | Posted by | Edit Post
Today's Farming Favourite is the Green belt in the Wetlands region of Eastern Kingdoms. The Green Belt is located near to the road up towards Grim Batol and is easily identifiable by the Orc's and Dragon type mobs battling together.

The black box is the approximate area we will be farming in.
Mobs:
  • Dragonmaw Whelpstealers
  • Ebon Slavehunters
Drops:
  • Greens
  • Linen Cloth
  • Wool Cloth
  • Silk Cloth
  • Recipes
  • World Drop Blue BoE
  • Vendor greys and whites
  • Gold
Pros:
  • Fast respawns
  • Easy to AoE down at higher levels
  • Gold can be doubled if you farm here using a skinner
Cons:
  • Many Alliance bases in the region so a slight Horde disadvantage.
  • Bags fill fast so regular vendoring or banking may be needed
As always, for Farming Favourites, I spent a specified period of time farming and at the end of that period, took a final count. I made sure that I monitored the gold earned carefully even though I had to use my vendor mount to empty my bags of the trash grey and white drops but this is reflected in the final figure.

I used a character with skinning and leatherworking to farm at the Green Belt.

Farming Time: 1 Hour

Gold:
  • Looted: 7g 21s 42c
  • Vendor gold: 5g 9s 72c
  • Total gold: 12g 31s 14c
Drops:
  • 1 BoE Blue - Feet of the Lynx (Good Twink Item)
  • 1 Transmog Green
  • 16 Vendor/DE Greens
  • 1 Shadowgem
  • 2 Moss Agate
  • 424 Linen Cloth
  • 53 Silk Cloth
  • 328 Wool Cloth
  • 1 Recipe: Elixir of Ogres Strength
Profession Related Loot:
  • 18 Light Hide
  • 15 Medium Hide
  • 1 Rugged Leather
  • 2 Thick Leather
  • 236 Light Leather
  • 214 Medium Leather
The green items disenchanted to:
  • 41 Strange Dust
  • 4 Greater Astral Essence
  • 1 Small Glimmering Shard
  • 4 Soul Dust
  • 3 Lesser Astral Essence.
Whilst the gold certainly isn't plentiful in hard coin drops at this location, the items you loot from the mobs certainly make up for this. Feet of the Lynx can sell for anywhere between 500g to 1500g depending on realm and demand. The cloth (and leathers if you farm on a skinner) can bring in a pretty penny too, with some realms seeing wool cloth sell for 30g-50g per stack.

Twenty Days of Wow - Day 1: Introduce Yourself

09:30 | Posted by | Edit Post
I am Cazmia, also known as Caz or Cazzy. I live in South East Scotland and I have been playing World of Warcraft since November 2009.

When I'm not playing World Of Warcraft, I can often be found playing MineCraft, Call of Duty or other assorted video games.

 Apart from video gaming, I enjoy reading books, watching films and chatting to friends.

 Things I enjoy doing on WoW range from farming old instances, the occasional run through LFR as my health permits, and playing the auction house. 

 In real life, I suffer from Pernicious Anaemia and other things, so WoW is my distraction where I can be free to do what I want without any of the restrictions that my stupid body can often give me.

 Well, thats all I can think to write about me, so Enjoy.
