2 birds with one stone

I recently had the urge to level my alt 65 Undead Rogue. I set her up with the boa chest, shoulders, 1h sword and 1h dagger. Coming from an Ally Nelf rogue, I knew the class very well in pvp and pve. After grinding out 12 levels I decided to try my luck at Alterac Valley.

To my suprise, there are many like minded players in the same situation. Gaining honor while gaining exp, is a popular addition these days. There are 2 ways I discovered that yeild the most exp per. Heading North to the first General, either Balinda or Galv (faction depending) will give you 20k exp upon their death. From here you have options. You could rush right to the opposite faction boss or you could capture a mine. Either way you'll be awarded both honor and moderate exp. Horde is awful in my battlegroup, we end up losing 90% of the time. I was able to gain one level (76 - 77)and 15k honor in about 20 matches.

My suggestion is to rest your alt, bg when your faction does NOT have Wintergrasp (for the extra 5% exp bonus) and camp out in AV.

Curbing the trolls

Ever have those trolls on your server who constantly eat up your trade fonts? Dont you wish for one moment that Blizz would add more queue's to your ignore list? I found an easy way to deal with these trolls that will enrage them even more than you could imagine.

Find the spot they camp in your major city. Orgrimmar is the spot on my server, sitting on the barrels outside next to the nearest mailbox. /say random things that attack said troll on a personal level. My fav is " _____ is a fat greasy little 13 year old who needs to log off and go outside", then run out of /say range for their response. 9 out of 10 times they will instantly pst you with some nerd rage response.

I actually had a troll defending what he did all day as if it was productive. To each is own. If you want to spend 15 a month trolling, send me the money and I'll send you naked pics at least.

Add on alert

 Market Watcher

This addon helps me keep a detailed ongoing list of items that I regularly buy. My threshold on my server varies per item, this add on enables me the one click power to see what people are listing them as. It can be used while batch posting items with Auctioneer, I highly recommend it.

Opening day

Learning from the pro's is always key. There are phenominal bloggers out there such as Kevmar @My auctionhouse banker, My 2 copper and Gevlon @ Greedy Goblin.

I wanted to join the ranks and give you guys another pro blog to read while you batch post 150+ glyphs. As we progress through gaining that gold, Ill be here giving you tips and tricks I find useful.
