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.

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.

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.

    • Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 changelog: Add RISC-V 64 support to UEFI:NTFS Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Improve progress reporting for compressed image extraction Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta 2 | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Tixati 3.43 by Razvan Serea Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS. Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder. It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.) When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive. Tixati has the following features: detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads peer connection encryption for added security full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress 100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available Tixati 3.43 changelog: Several major DHT improvements Added several screening heuristics to filter malicious DHT nodes, prevent Sybil floods Rewrote DHT search algorithms to add support for multi-path lookups Improved DHT logging, more details in several error messages Extended timeout lengths for outgoing queries over I2P Added incoming query / response per second to DHT table status display Updated Regex engine to PCRE2 Faster Search function, scans channel user profiles in much less time Fixed problems with file name parsing and date handling in RSS Faster and more accurate RSS filtering and episode number detection Several optimizations to global text processing functions, such as UTF-8 cleaning, line splitting, and token parsing Complete update of port-mapping UPNP/NAT-PMP engine, added PCP support, mapping over VPN support, and more Several refinements to default gateway detection on Windows / Android, which is used for port-mapping Support for IPv6 interface-scoped addresses, which is sometimes needed for IPv6 gateway detection and port mapping Full support for PCP port remapping, added backup zero-port query in case requested port is rejected New UPNP/NAT-PMP Monitor in Help > Diagnostics New reflected local port/location tracker that analyzes DHT replies to detect true port/location and NAT mapping type New TCP/UDP Ports monitor in Help > Diagnostics, with several statistic and information tabs, and a detailed event log Calculated/reflected local port is now used for port parameter in tracker queries and peer handshake Fixed several problems with Linux Wayland compatibility Completely replaced tray icon functions in Linux, new SNI implementation is now the default with GSI backup Implemented full DBus-Menu server to be used by new SNI tray icon implementation Replaced Linux tray balloon notification DBus client Rewrote auto-shutdown DBus interface for Linux Rewrote sleep inhibit DBus interface for Linux Dropped deprecated Linux dbus-glib dependencies Completely new Windows asynchronous file handling, now using IOCP model with several block-alignment optimizations Better handling of system network resets and interface down/up cycles Added option to fully clear configuration in Settings > Import/Export Remember last option checkboxes when using Import/Export Fixed minor I2P incoming connection routing problems Much faster I2P vanity host name finder Much faster channel user vanity key finder Raised length limit for torrent tracker remote failure messages to 120 from 64 Fixed problems setting download location on a torrent before the meta info is resolved Added location/MOC paths to category pane tooltips Several minor Web Interface fixes Refinements to static and scrolling ellipsizing layout routines Several fixes and improvements to single and multi-line text edit controls Many other minor fixes throughout the user interface A major overhaul of the Android framework has also been done: API target raised to 35, page alignment set to 16K Rewrote all inset processing routines

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.
