Mining leveling guide - http://wow.thenoobschool.com/power-leve ... uide-1-375

It'd be boring following it just to lvl but it gives you an idea of some good places to look, if you happen to be in those zones.

I'm finding it fairly easy to lvl mining myself. There seems to be a certain amount of common sense in where the nodes are located, ie. the rock areas like Thousand Needles seem to be rich, also caves. And doing quests in these areas yields some nice ores as you wander.

Hopefully it'll get easier for me in another 10 levels then.

I could do with a metric shitload of copper if anyone has any spare, need to get blacksmithing from about 80 to 110ish

For some reason* it shows the yellow value - ie the level at which it goes from orange to yellow and you get less XP. The left column shows 130, 155, 180 - which I assume are the earliest level, the yellow level and either the green or grey level.

There are some good plugins around which help gathering professions, as the spawn spots of things like ore and flowers tend to be in the same places. I see a lot of silver deposits in the caves, but that might be because I don't really notice them in the open.

It's probably there to prevent farming, but it's kind of annoying that you have to level up you character in order to progress your profession - in other games like Final Fantasy XI and LoTRO it's possible to make a living and become a master in your craft without ever leaving the start areas, which I kind of liked for a change of pace.

*Probably as they don't have reliable data on orange.

Runecloth and possibly felcloth would be aces, please.

Think I've got some Runecloth knocking about - I'll get it posted over to you.

Mingemage requires wool if anyone has some please.

As well as Deadly Blunderbuss, Zipperfish can now make Advanced Target Dummies. Soncho can make Strong Troll's Blood potions. All of these are used for quests, but some materials might need to be suppled, especially for the dummies.

Can any engies make a Gyrochronatom? I need one for a quest and can't find one anywhere.

Yup, I can make them pretty easily.

For anyone who's still kicking their heals in what was a remarkably short lived 5punkraft phenomenon and hasn't been sucked in by the Conaids; if you ever get to 60+ and need gems I can now cut most of the simple ones.

I'm still paying my subscription. Warcraft has one or two advantages over Colon - it'll run on my laptop with no issues at all (Colon probably will too, but I doubt I have the hard drive space), and it has relatively few bugs. I'm not giving up on it yet.

Given that I'll be spending 5 hours on a train with free wireless today, I was wishing I had a laptop that runs Colon to pass the time. As it is, it won't run CoX or Morrowind (first one at all, latter is unplayable), I think I'll just be sticking with the PSP for now. Certainly the more portable option!

Oof, sorry Lat. I'd hoped when I sold it you that it might be able to run some semblance of CoH.

No problem mate, I bought it as a browser and word processor, any gaming capacity was not expected and would have been purely a bonus. Just cancelled my CoX subscription as of next week now anyway. It does run Monkey Island though!

On the cusp of doing so, mainly since Eve is at a stage both politically (too many superpowers) and economically (I'm rich enough it's no longer a challenge) that I need to take a break for a while. I'm actually really enjoying the end game in WoW atm tho, and will probably wait for Conaids to mature a bit before jumping in.

Not such a bad idea, it's still very buggy at the moment.

I conker. There's also flat spots at late 30's, mid 40's, 50-60 and apparently around 65 too. The grind on some is easy but some of them have you fedexing across entire maps, and with a travel system that needs serious fixing it's a bit of a 'mare.

Still, I reckon I'll have my 1st lvl 80 by the time my first month runs out.

Thirded, quite buggy, content gaps, but still fucking awesome.

For everyone's reference, Soncho's Pantry stocks all your cooking needs - fish, more Zesty Clam Meat than the combined output of every restaurant in Booty Bay, and various bits of other animals.

So if anyone's trying to level cooking give me a shout, 'cos it's taking up most of my bank (and starting to smell).
