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.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
