Herbs Galore

So there's a bug, or a working as intended, but lacking in the patch notes change with 4.0.6.  Herbs in both uldum and deepholm are instantly respawning whenever another is picked in that zone.  this is allowing those with herbalism to get tons of herbs very quickly.  I was at between 40-50 stacks an hour in uldum on a tauren druid being able to avoid killing mobs and only farm the delta area in uldum. 

Back in Black

Ret is back baby, I finally get to play my ret paladin again now that they can pull comparable numbers.  The best part is, I ended up getting the mace off magmaw last night which was the first time it's dropped for our guild. It's also BiS for ret atm with all that sexy sexy mastery on it.

HOLY JESUS BATMAN

So when to Tauren druids get their flying cow form?  I love the new Troll Bat form, it's HOOGE, like xbox huge. I'm pretty sure Blizzards intention was for us to be able to ride troll druids around orgrimmar in their flying form it's just that epic.

Meta Day

Tomorrow is meta day.  The patch is coming and that means three new metas that are supposed to actually work and be viable best in slots for every dps class. If you're lucky enough to get one of these patterns in the first few hours/days of the patch you may want to sell it for a cool 50k or so if it's not super common.  If you're a JC and you've stockpiled metas for this day, i applaud you, and enjoy your 1k per metas while it lasts, provided you can get a pattern.

Fish food

Fishing in a game where you slay dragons and kill monsters seems like such a small insignificant thing that it shouldn't even be included in a game of such epic proportions like wow, yet one of the best food buffs for each class comes from fishing as well as the greatest title ever imagined by blizzard...Salty. I really would love to be salty sieger but alas, i can't manage to get a rare fish and since blizzard didn't add any rare fish to the list in cata the one that didn't get away really did. I'm forced to go back to Howling Fjord and farm these herrings and turn them into pickled herring, so if anyone is hungry and enjoys pickled fish...hit me up.

Mood Rings

It's funny really, how you can kill two progression bosses in one night and have someone rage quit because of that very raid.  It probably doesn't help that certain members may have berated the said rage quitter multiple times during the raid, but it's all in good fun as it always is.  Our guild is the one that swears curses and uses racial epithets more often then we should. We don't really have a GM or a raid leader at any set time and our most moody person isn't the 15 year old high school student, in fact we don't have any of those.  It's the 30 year old that gets angry when we tell him how to do his job.  We always forgive, never forget.  In fact, I'm fairly sure the next time someone runs off the elevator in BWD it will be referred to in my guild as pulling a sieger...I died to that elevator a grand total of 3 times tonight making it more deadly than omnitron and magmaw combined, almost as deadly as bastion trash and slightly less deadly than Halfus, V&T, and Twilight Council.

Also if any tanks on Grizzly Hills horde side are looking to have fun on Nefarion, we might need one next week. PST Sieger, Siegur, Barackhobama or Orrak  for more info and keep on having fun, after all whats wow without a little guild drama.

I like totems, totems are cool

I began leveling a dwarf shaman on Tichondrious a few days ago to play around with.  With no gold, no bags, no BoA gear, and no totems i set off into the great unknown.  It's refreshing to start anew on a server overrun with people.  The old rules of my run down low pop server didn't apply anymore.  Xp from both dungeons and questing is great, and the xp from gathering isn't a total let down.  At least we're not doing our gathering profs with no reward but the satisfaction of feeding your gathering profession or putting it on the AH to sell for pennies.

Rule number 1: everything sells.

I sold linen cloth at 4gold a stack, green boes from random mobs for 5-10gold apiece.  Multiple quests give you 8 slot bags now so you don't have to worry about the dread of running around with just your back pack any longer.  I'm sitting on about 50g with my normal mount and 2-shotting mobs is pretty fun for a shaman.  oh and my UI is prostar, don't deny it.
