Grats, man. How long does it take to get exalted with Netherwing? I've been working on mount reps with my Death Knight. So far, I'm honored with Skyguard, exalted with Orgrimmar, revered with Darkspear Trolls, and honored with the rest of the horde city reps.

How can people have so many mounts? I'm level 60 and I've only had 1. What's the point of having a lot? They all go the same speed (60% or 100%).

How does a flying mount work? You can fly to any flightmaster, any location on the entire game?

When you spend a lot of time traveling on a mount, using the same one over and over gets boring really quick. Having more adds variety and can be an epeen contest to show off rare mounts.

I use an addon off curse that will pick a random flyer or regular depending on which zone I'm in. You can also set each mount's "weight" so it has a higher chance to be picked in the randomization. I use this so my cooler mounts pop up more often than the crappy ones.

50 mounts nets you the Albino Drake.

100 mounts nets you the Red Dragonhawk or Blue Dragonhawk depending on your faction.

I did Netherwing off and on when I got epic training back in BC. I hit revered a week or so before LK drop'd and never bothered to finish it till now. It took me about 4 days doing just the quests and 1-3 eggs a day. The last day I did all dailies then got 6 eggs to hit exalted. It's not a bad grind, espeically at 80. You more or less one-3 shot everything (prot warrior need rage to one shot :p) and in the mines you can grab a group of 10 and kill 'em all without losing 3k health. It's super easy, and hardly anyone is out there, so there's hardly any competition and farming eggs to get you rep is even easier as no one else is doing it.

This may seem like a bad place to ask but someone else talked about it here.

Does anyone know a legit gold selling site? I have no jobs level'd and have no way of making gold. It's only $20 for 1k gold which is practically nothing, I'll just buy it and have it for a long long time.

Theres no legit sites.

Expect keyloggers or worse. Please I dont want to go into the many reasons not to buy gold least of all its against your t.o.s. But needless to say its frowned upon by most of the folk in this thread and indeed the comunity in general.

Spend a few days lvln a proff or go grind up Relics of Ulduar if your lvl80 and AH them all. You,ll make a **** tonne

If you buy gold, just do everyone a favor and quit the game.

Leveling mining, herbing or even skinning to 450 doesn't take long, and the huge amount of dailies found throughout the game can easily provide a steady 200g+ a day. Gold shouldn't be an isssue for anyone, unless you have sever time restainents but then you need to ask yourself why are you playing an MMO? I'm sorry I hate anyone that wants anything to do with gold buying/selling. Gold isn't hard to come by, not at all.

Small tip wanna make huge gold, level mining, and while you are at it level up JCing. Once you start prospecting Saronite, gold will flow via selling gems on AH.

I had 5000 gold in three days after I hit 80. Dailies, finishing Northrend quests that I didn't do while leveling, etc. And this was a DK, and I was too lazy to level any profession, so I wasn't selling any mats. I just had a goal (artisan riding) and I went for it. It really wasn't hard at all.

Alright, I understand what you're saying. In my old game Silkroad, if you didn't buy gold you were ****ed. Everyone bought the good gear and weapons etc. It just seems so tedious leveling these jobs now I'm 60 I'll have to go back to the beginner areas and click flowers.

I want to do dailies, but don't know how. Are they only available on BC? (which I'm leaving to buy right after I post this)

Only reason I want gold is for my mount, no idea how much it'll cost. Just the regular 100% one I mean.

Alright Bawx lets touch on gear.

Do not worry about buying ANY gear until you are 80, plan and simple, you will replace gear about every 2-3 levels, with new quest gear that comes so easy you do not need to worry about gear at all... Even at 80, you do heroics and regular instances which gives you the gear, so no reason to buy anything with gold. Same goes with weapons.

Dailies you can do from 60-80 but please do not worry about dailies yet, level level level... I can't stress that enough.. When you get through BC and on to WoTLK you will make money, good money, and the faster you are 80, the more money you will make.

100% speed mount, yes, you need to buy it as quickly as you can.

Journeyman riding skill (150) costs 600 for training and an additional 100 for the mount, both reduced by the appropriate reputation discount. Epic ground mounts increase movement speed by 100%.

So all you need to worry about is getting up 700g. Do not buy gear, do not buy mats, do not buy anything and just get 700g to buy this mount.

Once you are 70 do not buy a flying mount. You will only be able to use it while in the outlands, and its not worth the 900g yet. Once you hit Northrend, you will not be able to even use a flying mount until level 77 when you get cold weather flying, so save your cash until 77 to buy it all.

Damn I just dropped 100g for a new staff. It was my first purple and way better than my current staff so I bought it. Thanks for that though, it makes sense, I'll do exactly that.

I'm installing BC right now. I think I'm going to the Outlands and follow this guide 'cause I level really fast with it. (James' Alliance Leveling Guide).

Should I put things on the auction or just NPC everything? I made 30g this morning off random drops I threw on AH. I would have made like 5g if I NPC'd them.

Heh, don't worry about it. I made the same mistakes my first time around. Sometimes I still splurge on the AH if the item is just that good.

The problem with putting everything on the AH in Outland is that there is no AH in Outland. You have to go to Shattrath, port to a major city, and then go to the AH. Then you have to either port or hearth back. If you're a mage, it's no problem; otherwise, it's kind of tedious.

Vendoring everything generally nets you a good amount anyway. But, as you said, you can get quite a bit more if they sell on the AH. If I'm in the mood to go back to Azeroth and do it, I usually post stuff on the AH once and then vendor whatever doesn't sell the first time.

If you want to do that sure do it. Can make a good amount of money if you use/play the AH. Also on a side note, one of my alts only had 100G going into BC and by the time I hit 64, I had enough gold to buy Epic Ground and by the time I dinged 70, I had enough money to buy normal flying from just questing/vendoring.

yeah on the AH vs Vendoring items. It's kinda iffy. The biggest thing is people are now starting to buy greens to DE to get the infinite dust from them.. Considering infinite dusk sells for a crap load right now, they can get a better deal out of buying the cheap greens to DE to get a chance at 5xinfinite dust.

Problem being its only lvl 69+ items.

If I'm not mistaken you said your character is only level 60 now? Once you start questing in outland and then northrend your income will increase dramatically. Don't take the chance of losing your entire account buying gold.

Here's what I do, create a level 1 character, load him up with some nice bags, and then just mail things you want to AH to him. That way you don't need to travel back and for. The cost of mailing things is so low it's almost pointless to even have it. It's faster to log out on character then back into another than to travel back and forth.

Edit: Doh...I should have combined my two posts.

    • A 13 billion year old secret about our Universe's origin was revealed

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      A 13 billion year old secret about our Universe's origin was revealed by Sayan Sen Image by Pascal Küffer via Pexels Researchers at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik (MPIK) in Heidelberg had recreated a key chemical reaction from the early universe, producing results that could change scientists' understanding of how the first stars formed. The study focused on the helium hydride ion (HeH⁺), which is widely regarded as the first molecule to form in the universe. Scientists believe HeH⁺ appeared around 380,000 years after the Big Bang, when the universe had cooled enough for electrons and atomic nuclei to combine into neutral atoms in a period known as recombination. This marked the beginning of chemistry in the cosmos. Immediately after the Big Bang about 13.8 billion years ago, the universe was extremely hot and dense. As it expanded and cooled, hydrogen and helium became the dominant elements. Once neutral helium atoms formed, they could react with ionised hydrogen nuclei, or protons, to create helium hydride ions. Although simple in structure, HeH⁺ played an important role in the young universe. It was the first step in a chain of reactions that eventually produced molecular hydrogen (H₂), a molecule made up of two hydrogen atoms and now the most abundant molecule in the universe. Molecular hydrogen later became a key ingredient in the formation of the first stars. At the time, the universe had entered a phase often called the cosmological "dark age." Matter had become transparent to light following recombination, but there were still no stars or galaxies producing visible light. Several hundred million years would pass before the first stars appeared. For those first stars to form, large clouds of gas had to collapse under their own gravity. To do that, the gas needed to cool by releasing energy. While hydrogen atoms can help with this process at high temperatures, they become less effective below about 10,000 degrees Celsius. Molecules can continue the cooling process by releasing energy through rotational and vibrational motions. Scientists have long considered HeH⁺ a potentially important coolant because of its comparatively large dipole moment, a property that describes how electric charge is distributed within a molecule and allows it to release energy efficiently. The amount of helium hydride present in the early universe may therefore have influenced how easily the first stars could form. At the same time, HeH⁺ was constantly being destroyed. Under primordial conditions, its main destruction mechanisms were recombination with free electrons and chemical reactions with hydrogen atoms. These reactions ultimately helped produce molecular hydrogen, linking the formation and destruction of HeH⁺ to the chemistry that shaped the early universe. For many years, theoretical studies suggested that reactions between HeH⁺ and hydrogen atoms would become much slower at low temperatures. Scientists believed there was an energy barrier along the reaction pathway that reduced the chances of the reaction taking place in the cold conditions of the early universe. The new study suggests otherwise. To investigate the process, researchers recreated a closely related reaction using deuterium, a naturally occurring isotope of hydrogen that contains one proton and one neutron in its nucleus. When HeH⁺ collides with deuterium, it forms an HD⁺ ion and a neutral helium atom. This allows scientists to study the reaction in a controlled way while closely mimicking the behaviour of the original reaction involving hydrogen. The experiments were carried out at the Cryogenic Storage Ring (CSR) at MPIK, a specialised facility designed to recreate conditions similar to those found in space. Researchers stored HeH⁺ ions in the 35-metre storage ring for up to 60 seconds at temperatures just a few kelvins above absolute zero and merged them with a beam of neutral deuterium atoms. By adjusting the speeds of the two particle beams, the team measured how the reaction rate changed with collision energy, which is directly related to temperature. The researchers found that the reaction rate remains almost constant as temperatures decrease. In other words, the reaction does not slow down at low temperatures as earlier models predicted. “Previous theories predicted a significant decrease in the reaction probability at low temperatures, but we were unable to verify this in either the experiment or new theoretical calculations by our colleagues,” explained Dr Holger Kreckel of MPIK. “The reactions of HeH⁺ with neutral hydrogen and deuterium therefore appear to have been far more important for chemistry in the early universe than previously assumed,” he continued. According to the researchers, the reaction appears to be barrierless, meaning there is no energy obstacle preventing it from taking place efficiently even at very low temperatures. The findings support recent theoretical work led by physicist Yohann Scribano, whose group identified an error in a widely used potential energy surface, a mathematical model used to describe how the energy of a system changes during a chemical reaction. The error appears to have caused previous studies to significantly underestimate reaction rates under primordial conditions. The new calculations closely match the experimental results. Together, they suggest that helium chemistry in the early universe may need to be re-evaluated. Because molecules such as HeH⁺ and molecular hydrogen played an important role in cooling primordial gas clouds, the findings could help scientists build more accurate models of how the first stars formed. By showing that helium hydride was likely destroyed more efficiently than previously thought, the study offers new insight into the chemical processes that shaped the universe during its earliest stages and helped set the conditions for the emergence of the first stars.

      It could EASILY be 70 for the base game BUT + lots of FOMO to make it up to 100-120, like a few days Early Access, online money, pre-order bonus cars, weapons, missions, clothing, avatars or profile stuff, etc... And still WAY TOO MANY people would buy those and make Rockstar insane money.
