While leveling in Zul’drak just now, I discovered something interesting. If you’ve invested the two points in Blood for Butchery (grants runic power when you kill a target that gives xp/honor) and you’re doing the quest “This Just In: Fire Still Hot!” from Light’s Breach, you can fill your runic power bar in a very short amount of time without ever entering combat.

Simply put out the fires as per the quest. Each one you put out is treated as if you’d just killed an enemy yielding xp/honor. This will also trigger Swift Hand of Justice (Confirmed, I use two of them and they both proc on this. Vendetta from the blood tree also procs with these, so I’m getting 10% of my max hp for putting out a fire!). I’m 99% certain that anything with an effect that triggers on killing an enemy will work here.

I’m aware that the area of use this particular exploit has is highly limited, but it does carry the potential to save your life if you pull one too many trolls or if you have competition of the opposite faction on a pvp server.

Everyone who has been 80 for awhile knows the pain of the oracles item Mysterious Egg, which after 7 days has only a SMALL chance at hatching a green protodrake mount. I just transfered servers from horde Rivendare to horde Kel’Thuzad and noticed something CRAZY. The unique quality from Mysterious Egg was no longer present! This meant I was able to go to the Oracles quartermaster and purchase another egg!

For those of you trying to replicate this (which by all means do so and get that mount faster then waiting 2 months + for) here are the variables that may or may not come into play.

The server maintenance was about to occur when I put in the request to server xfer.

I was logged out in dalaran.

Server xfer was completed prior to Kel’Thuzad coming offline.

So we were on Yogg tonight, still havent killed him. Yes i know we suck. And a wipe was called, so 1 of our rets DI’d a boomkin i the brain room. Induce madness finished casting, Boomkin didnt get MC’d. Removed DI, continued dpsing brain.

Basically what i’m trying to say is, DI a dps in the brain room at 5 seconds left on induce madness, wait til induce madness finishes casting, and remove the DI, and you’re free to dps until the next induce madness cast.

You can also soulstone the paladin that di’s so he can insta res once he’s thrown out.

Okey first of all, this works different from server to server.

I will now line up some things you can do to earn some gold without farming (which becomes pretty boring after 1-2 hours).

1. Check the abyss prices daily on the AH, if you detect some who are cheaper than normally, buy them/it and resell them/it for a higher price (profit).

2. If you’re an enchanter or know an enchanter, check if there is any 76-80 greens/blues below 10g on AH (do it daily). If you find some, buy them and disenchant them (nearly always profit, if mats isn’t to cheap on your server).

3. If you’re an enchanter / Jewelcrafter or know anyone who are, check the prices on infinite and greater cosmic. If they aren’t to low, check the prices for saronite ores and eternal earth. If you find saronite ore stacks cheap then buy them all and some eternal earth/crystallized earth and get your prospecting mate (or you self) to prospect all the stacks. All the blue raw gems should be crafted into something which sells for much and the greenies should be crafted into rings (the lvl 70 once) togheter with the crystallized earth. When all the rings are crafted you will have to disenchant them all into infinites/lesser cosmics/small dreamshards.

The main source of income in this guide will be infinite dust, which is always in high demand and sells for about 4g each.

The item you want to make with LW is Arctic Boots.

The mats to make this are only 8 Borean Leather.

Recently the prices for leather have declined, and on my server can be bought at roughly 8g a stack.

Note : This is ONLY for Dalaran Sewers.

When you’re in the sewers and you first come out against most teams my DK will run strait across to go beat up one of their players.
EVERY Shaman hates totem stomping locks/dk’s so the idea is to drop a tremor/grounding totem INSIDE the middle where the falling water comes down, the pets can’t get in the middle to stomp you

We just beat a Pally/Lock (counter) because they couldn’t get fears off. as long as you’re up top(and some on bottom) you can always get reached by tremor even though its best to hug it.

Good luck.

How to duel vs the different classes:

Warrior:

Arms and Fury
In your opener, you must assure that the warrior wont shout you out of stealth.
To avoid this, simply let him use his rage generating ability(like most warrior does) and stay away until all his rage is gone.
Some warriors start out in defensive stance, which makes them take alot less damage, but it really shouldn’t be a problem bursting through it.
To assure that you will get the opener without him destealthing you first, I suggest that you avoid sapping him first, and just going straight for him and opening with cheapshot.

After starting out with Cheapshot / Mut / Mut / Kidneyshot / Dismantle, the warrior will be free, and he will most likely use bladestorm – Therefor I suggest that you use Evasion + Feint + CLoS(if you have CLoS glyph) and just tank it, while you burst him with Mut/Evisc.. If he trinkets any of the stuns, simply counter it by Blinding him and reopen with Cheapshot, but watch out for the bleed effect – Avoid being destealthed by physical DoTs by stealthing right after a tick.

The Deadzone:

The deadzone, is a small space inbetween you and the warrior where the warrior cant melee you, nor cant he charge you.
Kiting him around in the deadzone with Crippling poison will give you the oppotuny to regenrate Energy while he looses some rage – and in rare cases you might even restealth. Except the warrior to Demo shout you, while your walking in the deadzone. If your able to, vanish and reopen after a few seconds, and burst – watch out for bleed effects though.
