Yes I do have a skinning knife, and my skill is 100+. The thing is that I don't even get the skinning icon when I mouse over the critters (sheep, rabbits, cows, dears). Like they were never meant to be skin-able.

You can't skin critters.

Meaning, this is a change in the newest patch, right? (because, I was able to skin dears/cows/rabbits before)

If that is so, thanks for the clarification. :)

I think that not skinning critters has always been the case or else you would level up skinning rather quickly at lower levels, there a millions of critters in the starting areas.

Not true, you were always able to skin them up until very recently. I always started out skinning rabbits, deer, sheep and cows. They die with one hit and as you say you could skill up very quickly. I imagine that is why they changed it.

Started my Shammy alt, not so happy i have to level again, but i don't have WoTLK so i can't level my priest. Where can i find the level 70 pvp gear btw, i searched in Honor Hold and couldn't find it in the quartermasters.

You Try Stormwind or Orgimmar (belive thats where the Horde one is)?

After farming badges for like a week straight, I finally have all the heirloom gear for my shaman. He's currently sitting at 29 I believe. I'm leveling enhancement (I've always thought enhance shamans were totally bad ass), so I just started off with the leather rogue gear I used to level my druid as feral along with the 2h mace. I've gotten the chest & shoulders for enhancement shamans (and hunters, I think), and yesterday I finally got the second mace (2 x Venerable Mass of McGowan). I can't wait to hit 40. Everything's just going to blow up :D

Also, after talking with a friend about Diablo 2 necros & WoW warlocks, I want to do a warlock again. Last time I leveled one, I got to mid-30s I believe. But now this means I need to farm another 145 badges for his set :rofl:

Level 70 PvP gear can be found in Stormwind, since you're alliance. It'll be in the Old Town, in the Champion's Hall.

They are BoA so if you already have a cloth set on another toon just mail them to the new one.

Oh, I know. I don't have another set. I only have the PvP cloth shoulders, but I'd rather not waste stats on resilience when I never PvP. So I need a whole set.

Nono, i'm talking about for my undead priest, i checked all the pvp gear vendors in Orgrimmar but for the life of me i coulden't find the level 70 gear, only the level 60 and level 80 stuff.

You used to be able to skin the deer, sheep, cows, and rabbits. As of a recent patch, I could no longer skin the rabbit or deer. Would have to double check the cows and sheep, but I doubt it.

And yes, you could easily level up your skinning early on that way.

Thanks for the answer. :)

Should be there, but I don't play Horde anymore. Sorry. :/

@IanPete, just guessing, but he's probably using QuestHelper, Carbonite, or Lightheaded.

A combination of Carbonite, Everyquest, Lightheaded, and TomTom.

lol, don't forget the Redbull drinks needed to keep you awake through your boring adventure. :laugh:

Are you using TomTom for EveryQuest or Lightheaded? Because with Carbonite, you can just click next the quests to track them. Alt+Right-Clicking the same orb also brings it up in the quest log as well, which is nice being able to jump right to the quest you want to look at.

Both, sometimes Everyquest doesn't bring up destinations.. and lightheaded is a nice backup.

I also forgot to mention I'm using Jame's Leveling Guide addon, which guides you around from 1 to 80, but, I'm going through all the old content picking up the stuff I didn't get because I'm a death knight.

Use the Drop Down to show Quest givers for your faction. That's how I did it. Used Questhelper to keep me pointed in the right direciton once I picked 'em up. Just keep switching zones, skipping the ones you remember leveling in and hopefully you get the achievement. If you don't then the time consuming part of going through all the zones you recall leveling in and finding the drops you need to start quests/where you left all on chains start. That's the annoying part, everything else was easy.

And start in starter zones and work up. Can do several quest chains that way. And not all quests in a chain count towards your continent you want. So use WoWhead to browse a lengthy chain to see if it is worth it.

3.3 - Thrall puts orcs in the UC. Cata - Garosh apparently forces an attack against the Worgen. Likely threatening Sylvanas with genocide if she doesn't agree (look what he'll do to Cairne).

You really think a multi million dollar company doesn't have a clue what it's doing?

To put it simply, if Sylvanas left the Horde, she'd surely have the Alliance and quite possibly the Horde on her ass well. Parting does not prove to be a viable solution for herself in terms of survivability. She wants everything dead, but she's certainly not going to risk having herself and her own kind destroyed as well.

As for the Horde, if she left, there'd be a simple question of... do they attack or do nothing? Fighting against her would only take up resources, and doing nothing still leaves them with lower numbers which would seem to hurt them with the Alliance still sitting strong...

Thus, it'd only be mutual to stay allied together.

Sure, there may be a lack of trust, but unless one or the other actually has some cards to play that really give them a true upperhand without so much risk, they're not going to go through with it. Sylvanas would need a really big card to play to go through with her intentions. As for the Horde, they'd need someone with an army as powerful as Sylvanas' to make up for her absence, in the fight to put her to an end. Even then, that'd still put them with lower numbers than they'd want. On top of that, I'm sure the Horde would surely want Sylvanas on their side even if they had such a powerful hand. Sylvanas too would also be interested in helping the mightier Horde to wipe out the alliance first, as it agrees with her intentions anyhow.

I'm not sure how much further you're trying to think this through, judging by the post you have going on the WoW forums, but this isn't rocket science here. It's a matter of priorities and where they are placed. How Blizzard has "painted themselves in a corner" is beyond me.

Edited by dead.cell

I'm going to have to agree with Spookie, dead.cell, and basically all the replies in that thread. Blizzard may have messed with the lore a bit during WoW's lifetime, but they know what they're doing and have the foresight to not screw themselves over with this.

    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram by Aditya Tiwari Meta announced that its Instagram for TV app has arrived on Samsung TVs in the US as part of its latest expansion, giving users one more way to scroll through Reels. The social media giant often comes under scrutiny for the "addictiveness" of its features, which leads people to spend excessive time on the platform. Interestingly, Instagram boss Adam Mosseri described spending 16 hours on the platform as "problematic use" but not "clinical addiction." Mosseri also compared scrolling on Instagram to binge-watching a show on Netflix. Instagram for TV is now available on Samsung TV models released in 2020 or later. The app is already available on Amazon Fire TV and Google TV in the US, which together account for the majority of connected TV devices. The company said it will test several new features to improve the living room and family experience while using Instagram on the big screen. Watching vertical videos on a big screen isn't something many would be excited about. Probably that's why Meta is testing a dedicated home for horizontal videos. Creators will get the opportunity to design content for TV screens and get more ways to reach audiences, according to Meta. If you found an interesting Reel while doomscrolling on your phone, you'll be able to cast it to your TV. The feature is available for testing on Instagram for TV on Google TV and Amazon Fire TV, and it will also support videos from the Saved tab. Instagram for TV will be testing Channels organized around user interests, across genres such as comedy and sports, as well as content from favorite creators. Moreover, you can watch Stories on your TV. While Instagram is known for short-form videos, it's knocking on more doors to keep the audience hooked. The company said it's exploring new content formats for the big screen, including long-form creator content to cover topics in detail, episodic series to build suspense across multiple episodes, and creator live sessions on TV. All of the new updates put Instagram in competition with established giants like YouTube (and Netflix), which already have a robust presence on the big screen. In recent updates, Instagram added the ability to write an individual caption for each carousel image, manually re-order posts, and a paid version of the app.
    • I know RAM and storage prices are high right now, but I think it would have been better to have 1TB as the base level storage, especially as it's supposed to be for gaming. Plus a 2.5gbe ethernet port rather than only 1gbe.
    • I have installed the debloated version of Windows 11 25H2 Pro. I obtained the apps from store.rg-adguard.net. The size of the Photos app window is quite problematic for me; it consistently displays in a 16:9 aspect ratio, resembling a movie theatre screen, and cant remeber its last size and position. The Snipping Tool cannot capture the taskbar. When I select "Window" in capture mode, it allows me to capture menus or individual windows, but I am unable to capture just the taskbar. This functionality was available in version 24! I am on the same version numbers (latesst).
    • I'm already seeing my steam library, still swallowing the 16 Gb of RAM, then looking at the SD storage expansion and saying "what?".
