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.

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.

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.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026 by Aditya Tiwari Google Gemini has been around for over three years. The AI chatbot started its journey back in 2023 (as Bard) when ChatGPT was already a talk of the town. However, it quickly attracted criticism after misrepresenting facts about the James Webb Space Telescope. The search giant spent a year fine-tuning Bard before rebranding the chatbot and its underlying generative AI model to Gemini, drawing inspiration from NASA's first human spaceflight program. Note that Bard was initially powered by LaMDA and PaLM 2; Google has since added several new features and integrations to Gemini. That said, there is scope for improvement and a gap for new features. I have been using Gemini for a while now and have realized that the chatbot lacks several features, making it harder for me to research across topics. These are mostly function-over-form updates that can improve the overall experience. Delete individual messages from a conversation Image via DepositPhotos.com One good thing about Gemini is that it can maintain context throughout the conversation. But things might get chaotic when you want to ask a related question, but don't want it to be part of your conversation in the long run. You can't ask that related question in a fresh chat because Gemini will lose the active conversation context of what you're trying to research. If Google allowed you to delete individual question/answer pairs, you could simply ask about a sub-topic and remove it from the conversation to create a smooth flow of important stuff. Offline mode Image via DepositPhotos.com A big pain of using Gemini daily is that everything loads from the cloud. It takes time for your chats to appear, and you can't view your conversation history while offline. To get a better idea, you can open the Gemini app and see how it looks without an internet connection. While Gemini models run in the cloud, it wouldn't hurt if Google could store chats (at least the text part) on the device so we can refer to them when offline. Google can also offer a lightweight version of its AI model to help with basic drafting, summarization, and other tasks. It has the Gemini Nano model, which can perform on-device processing on Google Pixel, Samsung, and some other Android brands, but it's a system feature and not related to the cloud-based Gemini app. Make temporary chats permanent I can't thank Google enough for taking the time and effort to add incognito mode or temporary chat mode to the Gemini app. It lets you have conversations without worrying that the topics will end up in your chat history or used for model training (at least on paper). Google claims that it doesn't use your temporary chats to "personalize your Gemini experience or train Google’s AI models." However, the data is stored "up to 72 hours to respond to you and to process any feedback you choose to provide." That said, I often start researching something in a temporary chat, only to realize the chatbot's answer is good enough to refer to later. Sadly, Gemini doesn't have an option to make such temporary chats permanent. In other words, I won't be able to follow up on it if I close the temporary chat. I'm left with alternatives like copying the answers into notes or another app. My digital life will get a lot better if Gemini gets a button to make temporary chats permanent. Collapse answers for a cleaner view You're heavily invested in your research game and suddenly feel the need to go up in the chat to recall something. This is when the conversation thread starts to feel like an overwhelming, unending wall of questions and answers. What if Google added a way to collapse Q&A pairs in the Gemini chat thread? It would look quite clean and easy to navigate. You'll quickly get an overview of everything you have discussed with the chatbot. Add buttons to jump between messages Suggested mockup of the feature. This reminds me of a small but useful Gemini feature that Google could add to its chatbot: the ability to hop between prompts in a conversation. Just add simple up- and down-arrow buttons, similar to YouTube Shorts, so people can quickly scroll through the messages. A table of contents or Chat Overview It's hard to get a bird's-eye view of everything you have discussed with the chatbot during a lengthy conversation. This is where a table of contents, or Chat Overview, displayed at the top of the screen, possibly in a drop-down button, might come in handy. You'll be able to get an overview of the chat and jump between messages, serving as an alternative to the up/down arrow buttons. Temporary mode for Gemini Live Image: Google You can use Gemini Live to have real-time conversations with the chatbot, which feels like you're talking to someone in the same room. However, a downside is that Gemini Live doesn't work in Temporary Chat mode, so all your conversations end up in the chat history. Google should consider expanding the temporary chat mode to include Gemini Live. Default to a specific chat One thing that feels somewhat annoying to me is that Gemini always opens in a new chat, whether on web or mobile. Sometimes, you want to return to your last chat. Google can take cues from web browsers, which let you choose whether you want to go to a new tab or a specific web page(s). Gemini can also have options to default to a specific chat when reopened. That said, generative AI chatbots have endless possibilities given the vagueness of their work. You can mold them the way you want by attaching different connectors, adding custom instructions, and including source files. It remains to be seen what Google has in store for future updates and whether anything from this wishlist gets the green light. The search giant released a stream of new Gemini updates in recent months, including Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini Omni Spark, adding that it now has 13 products with more than a billion users each. What do you want to see in the Gemini app? Tell us in the comments.
    • Thank you for the post. Just a FYI that links to an outside site or promoting specific software is considered spamming here. Asking general questions is fine.
    • I have been thinking about AI detector tools as a software workflow rather than a single "AI score" widget. When someone pastes text or uploads a document, the UI can return a report with a probability-style score, sentence highlights, reliability notes, and limitations. The useful part is that it can point a reviewer toward passages worth reading again. The risky part is that a polished score can look more certain than it really is. For people who build or review web apps, what should happen before the user copies or exports that kind of report? The minimum I would expect is: A clear input boundary for pasted text versus document files. Limits shown near the workflow, including minimum text length and maximum file size. A report label that says the result is a signal, not proof of who wrote the text. Sentence highlights and evidence notes alongside the global score. Reliability notes when the sample is too short or lacks enough sentence variety. False-positive and false-negative caveats that remain visible in copied/exported summaries. I am trying to avoid the pattern where a clean report card becomes the whole product story. For AI detection, "review this evidence in context" seems more honest than "trust this score." Would you keep the warning text visible on every report, or make it collapsible so the main result stays easier to scan? Disclosure: I work on a small AI detector/reporting workflow, but I am intentionally not linking it here. I am asking about software and report design, not promoting a site.
