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.

http://www.wowhead.com/?zone=36#npcs

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.

    • Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.

With its intuitive interface, Subtitle Edit provides a variety of features such as waveform audio display, spell-check, subtitle synchronization, and real-time video preview, making it an ideal choice for both beginners and professionals. The software also includes powerful tools for batch processing, translating subtitles, and converting between different subtitle formats.

Subtitle Edit 5.0.0 changelog: Subtitle Edit 5 is a major new release and a big step for the project. For the first time, Subtitle Edit runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux from a single, modern, cross-platform codebase. The builds are self-contained, so no separate .NET installation is required, and on macOS and Linux the needed media components (mpv/ffmpeg) are bundled in. Please read before upgrading: Subtitle Edit 5 is a new application, not just an update of Subtitle Edit 4. It has been rebuilt from the ground up to be cross-platform, so: It is not 100% the same app. The look, layout, and some workflows have changed. Some things are in different places, and a few behave differently than in SE4. Not every SE4 feature exists in SE5 yet. SE5 covers all the core editing, conversion, sync, video playback, OCR, and online services, but some of the more specialized SE4 tools are not available yet. Features will continue to be added. If you rely on a specific SE4 feature that is missing, please keep SE4 installed alongside SE5. The easiest way to run both side by side is to use the Portable versions of SE4 and SE5, which keep their settings separate and do not interfere with each other. Which version should I use? Subtitle Edit 5: recommended for most users on Windows 10 (22H2) or newer, macOS 12+, and Linux. Subtitle Edit 4: please continue to use SE4 if you are on an older Windows version (Windows 7/8), or on older / slower computers where SE5 may not run well. SE4 remains available and is the right choice in those cases. To run SE4 and SE5 at the same time, use the Portable versions - you can try SE5 while keeping SE4 as a fallback.

    • Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect by Hamid Ganji Google Pixel 10 series In recent years, Google has successfully turned its Pixel devices into worthy contenders in the smartphone market. The search giant is now preparing to launch the Pixel 11 series in just a few months, and many Pixel fans are likely wondering what Google has in store for them this year. The next lineup of Google smartphones includes four devices: the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. This year, we don’t expect Google to bring revolutionary upgrades to its handsets, and the Pixel 11 series is likely to receive modest hardware improvements alongside a slew of AI-powered features. Here are the rumored specifications of the Google Pixel 11 series ahead of its official debut: When will the new Pixel phones be unveiled? The last two generations of Google Pixel phones (Pixel 9 series and Pixel 10 series) were launched in August, unlike the previous three generations that debuted in October. With that in mind, we expect Google to unveil the Pixel 11 series sometime in August 2026. The exact launch date has yet to be confirmed. Google Pixel 11 CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines How much will the Pixel 11 series cost? Predicting the final price of upcoming smartphones has become increasingly difficult. As you may know, RAM and memory prices are rising sharply, leading to significant increases in the cost of consumer electronics. Recently, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that price increases for some future Apple products are unavoidable, suggesting that the iPhone 18 series could become more expensive. Google has remained tight-lipped about any potential price increases for the Pixel 11 series. If the company manages to maintain last year’s pricing structure, here’s what the lineup could cost: Pixel 11: $799 Pixel 11 Pro: $999 Pixel 11 Pro XL: $1,199 Pixel 11 Pro Fold: $1,799 Given current market conditions, it may be difficult for Google to avoid raising prices unless it adopts cost-saving measures, such as equipping the base model with 8GB of RAM. Google Pixel 11 series anticipated specs: We expect the Google Pixel 11 series to debut with a new Tensor G6 processor as well as an upgraded camera system. The overall design, however, is expected to remain largely unchanged across the lineup. Specifications Pixel 11 Pixel 11 Pro Pixel 11 Pro XL Pixel 11 Pro Fold Display 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED / 120Hz refresh rate / up to 3100 nits of brightness 6.3-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 6.8-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 8-inch inner screen and 6.4-inch outer display, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness RAM & Processor Tensor G6 / 8-12GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 16GB of RAM Storage options 128GB or 256GB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB Camera 50MP main sensor, 13MP ultra-wide, 10.8MP 5x telephoto, 10.5MP front camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 10.5MP ultra-wide camera, 10.8MP telephoto camera, 10MP front camera, 10MP inner camera Battery 4,840 mAh 4,707 mAh 5,000 mAh 4,658 mAh Software Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 The Pixel 11 series won’t be a major departure from its predecessor, with Google instead focusing on subtle improvements and AI additions such as Gemini Intelligence. However, a patent filed by Google suggests the company is working on a removable battery for its smartphones, and we could see this feature make its way to the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Given that nearly all smartphones today lack removable batteries, such a feature would be a welcome addition to future Pixel devices. That said, it may not arrive with this year’s lineup after all, and the final decision is yet to be made by Google. The Pixel 11 series could also face an uphill battle in the market. In the Android segment, Samsung is performing well with the Galaxy S26 series, while the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup is also expected to launch next month. On the other hand, Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max in September alongside its first foldable iPhone.
