Herbalism Upgrade in 4.1

-
Withering potted Azshara's veil?
Coming with the content release, Blizzard is making an exciting change to Herbalism. This change is going to make grinding for those plants less tedious, maybe.

For starters, you go out and pick herbs. Instead of simply throwing the herbs into a herb bag, you will be given the option of placing that herb clipping into a pot. Luckily you'll be able to store the pots (sorry no stacking) into your existing herb bags. With these potted plants you will need to care for them regularly. Water and feed them using items you will buy from the Herbalism trainers. I imagine there may even be a series of poop related options in Stranglethorn vale. "Raptor poop makes the best plant food!".



Once you have 20 different pots going, go back to the Herb trainer in Orgrimmar and pickup the breadcrumb quest. This will have you go out to Hillsbrad and work on your faction's farm. This earn rep with the local farms faction.

Upon reaching exalted, you will have the option to purchase the farm. 20k gold, so not a little drop in the bucket, but the dividends will pay off immensely. Now the plants you harvest are yours. Imagine having an immediate supply of hundreds of Azshara's Veil available. Int flasks anyone?? :)

The process for running the farm is very simple. Regularly log on, and click on a plot of land to place 1 plant. You'll start off with 4x4 farm, so 16 clicks. In a few days, come back and click each plot to harvest your plants. Repeat this a number of times, you'll be able to purchase (yes more gold) a larger plot. Even resources that you can use to store...







April Fools!!

Legion's Mythic+ Dungeon Final Impressions

Yesterday, Ythisens  posted a question on the WoW forums asking for final impressions on the Mythic+ dungeons. With Legion coming to a close we thought we might try something a little different and collect some specific feedback on things. While we normally are reading tons of posts you guys make and sharing the details internally, we want to try collecting focused feedback to ensure your opinions are being heard. We're still doing our usual methods but want to see if this can be something we use going forward.    For the first one we're going to try one focused on Mythic+! We want to hear everything you guys have on this feature we introduced in Legion. What you think it does well, what you think it doesn't, ways you'd like to see it go, how did it work throughout the course of the expansion, etc.    Also a friendly note that just because you see it here doesn't mean it will be changed or added - and this topic is not an indication of future feature deve...

Profession Opinions

IMHO, spend your first points for herbalism or mining in 40 into [ botany ] or 35 into [ mining process ] so that you can gather while mounted.  I hate that the skinning trainer is standing immediately behind one of the leatherworking tables. I am constantly clicking on them.  I 100% agree with everyone that says the fishing profession needs a hat slot. We may need a secondary equipment slot for toons with a fishing ring.  I wish the crafting orders system worked 'better'. To complete "# of (profession) crafting orders" quests, my default is to go to my bank toon, and order low-level items. Gimme 3 bolts of cloth, or 2 handfuls of bolts, or 3 'profession equipment'. I sort of wish that when I specify a personal order, I could see their available recipes. Oh, look my hunter can make ___, lets's order 3 of those? My bank toon could order profitable items, not just garbage fillers.  Leveling engineering is dreadful. Creating 1 middle-level item, requires 1 ra...
