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.

    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.

    • Owing to the nature of Windows feature enablement updates, it was distributed over Windows Update services as a complete system upgrade rather than as an ordinary cumulative update
    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release by Usama Jawad Windows 11 typically follows an annual update cycle, but Microsoft recently broke that tradition a bit by releasing a "26H1" version in the first half of this year as a "scoped" build for select new silicon PCs only. This version was not available for customers using 24H2 and 25H2 builds, as Microsoft is busy preparing version 26H2 for them, confirmed officially for the first time. In a Windows IT Pro blog, Microsoft has urged IT admins to prepare for the upcoming release of Windows 11 version 26H2. The company has confirmed that this will be a small enablement package (eKB) that will simply light up certain disabled features that are already present in the operating system's code base. This means that the "refined" Windows update and deployment experience will be simpler and quicker, with minimal disruptions, as the feature update will simply toggle a few flags rather than performing a complete replacement. Microsoft has explained that this is all possible because the standard Windows 11 releases share the same servicing branch and hence, the same source code. However, this also means that Windows 11 26H1 users won't be able to upgrade to 26H2 as that is a different branch, but this is something we have known for a while now. Similar to previous annual feature updates, Windows 11 26H2 will offer the following support cycles: 24 months of support for Home, Pro, Pro EDU, and Pro for Workstations editions 36 months of support for Enterprise, Education, IoT Enterprise, and Enterprise Multi-session editions Microsoft has not confirmed a concrete release date for Windows 11 26H2, but noted that it is "coming soon". If we go by the ongoing release cadence, we can expect it to begin rolling out in early October 2026. As such, IT admins have been encouraged to begin validating Windows Insider releases in the Experimental Channel, plan rollout rings, and strategize the utilization of their existing deployment tools.
