Tricks and Tips.

[Thrash'Nak]

I saw this post on a different guild i was in once, and i kinda miss having it here! So basicly, as the title might clue you, this is here you can post all thosse useful tricks or tips you may have. Be it about a game, computers, real life tricks. Anything. So here's my few tricks i can think of on the top of my head!

Below are pictures.

World of Warcraft:

Placing a fire, -where you want it-.: Turn you camera up, so you're looking down. Then add a little dot on the screen, in your head. And aim, this dot will need to be at 10 o' clock of your character. And this is how you place a fire like i do.

The shadowstep trick. This trick requires practice, shadowstep and therefor being a rogue. The trick is, you jump down an edge, and when the person who's hunting you jumps after, you shadowstep in that exact moment, and vola. You'll be on the edge, and he's falling instead of you.

Google chrome:

Ctrl+T opens a new tap, ctrl+W, closes taps. It's something probably everyone knows, but some might not, and it's mighty useful. ^^

Need volatile air? Head to uldum, and enter the vortex pinacle on normal! You'll obviousely have to be able to solo it, but this is by all means, the best way to get your volatile air!

Need wind wool cloth? Head to the auction house, and pick up a luck potion. Now head to the krassang wilds, Nayea lagoon. Kill all the ugly oookers there and you'll quickly get enough cloth! And with the potion of luck, you will also get small chests of extra loot!

Another great spot for exactly this, along with an extremely good way to make gold, however very popular too, so you might get alot of competition, is the camp, right behind the anglers, you will find alot of raiders there, which you kill, whilst having the luck potion buff! I personally made a staggering 2 thousand gold, for an hour there. If you should be interested, i suggest during it early in the morning.

Having gold problems? Look at your proffesions, most proffesions by now, has something which alot of people will play -alot- of gold for, usually this will take days to make, take for example the skyshredder! It's currently going for 30 thousand and above! That's -alot- of gold. Here's a list on the top of my mind, that you should watch out for:

Blacksmith: All of the epic 550 ilvl pieces, usually take 20ish days to make, and will make you somewhere between 5 thousand to 12 thousand, if you're lucky.

Enchanting: How, Grogona? How? You can make a sha crystal everyday, what?! Yeah, that's right, you have a cooldown as an enchanter, which allows you to make a sha crystal a day, 10 days later, and you can make a dacing steel, how much does dancing steel go for? 1500 to a staggering 3 thousand gold!

Alchemy: Living steel is used for a long list of things, for example belt buckles and weapon chains, and as an alchemist, you can make one a day. But hey, if you go ahead, and spend abit gold, you'll have a chance to get up 5 living steel a day, that's already 1 thousand gold a day? Every day! Of course, this is rare, and you usually get only one!

Engineering: Engineering, is -the- king of patient gold makers. The sky-golem, takes an entire 30 days to make, along with 4200 ghost iron ore, now don't get nervouse, it's not -that- much. Farming this, will usually take 5 days, using a few hours a day.

Now, there's plenty of things other than that, but if i'd list it here, it'd be a small book!

That is all for this weeks update of tips and tricks!

Remember if you have questions, ask me! The 5 years i've been playing wow, i've gathered all sorts of tricks, and i'm happy to share. Most of which most people don't even know! Which is crazy, since it's right there to get!

Some good info here thanks Grogona.

I find that the low level farming stuff goes for silly prices.
Maybe because people in a rush to get high level in a profession.

In this week! I'll cover some addons that i feel is almost a must. And most of these addons, are light weight, unnoticeable, but makes your life a ton easier. And surprisingly, not very many uses them.

Light weight and unnoticable addons:

Autopvp

This addon has been discontinued, so you can't download it anymore, but it's still very fully functional, and you can download it -right- here, on this very post.
What the addon does, is enabling pvp, when it's off. Basicly, when you go into a sanctuary, like say Dalaran or Shattrath, pvp is by default, taken off. So this addon will put pvp back on. It's also very handy, since no one will ever tell you to put pvp on again.

Postal:    http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/postal

Postal enables you to open all your mail, quickly and easily. It enables you to quickly send mail, to players you've previousely sent too. All around, this is a light weight addon, you won't notice, but the functionality of it, improves the game.

SaySapped:   http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/saysapped

We play on a PvP server, so it's very useful to know when someone gets sapped. This addon will simply make you /say * Sapped * That's it, nothing else too it. But this addon has allowed me to save some of your butts before.

Scrap:   http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/scrap

This addon sells all your junk item, when you talk to a vendor. It won't sell any white items, so all your roleplay items are safe. Should you have grey items, like a pipe you like to link into your emotes, that can be "Blacklisted" So it won't sell said item. But all around, this addon just keeps your inventory clean.


Addons i personally like alot, that you might like as well:

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/altoholic Allows you to see all your characters inventory, and it will also show you if one of your characters has said item, on tooltips, aka, the box that pops up when you mouse over something.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/bagnon This merges all your bags into one.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/battlegroundtargets  If we ever do rbgs again, this addon is a must have.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/Elephant Gives you a chat log, going back something like 5000 lines. and you can copy them too.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/gladiatorlossa This is probably my favourite addon. High priority cooldowns are announced, when enemy players use them. For example touch of karma, Bladestorm, Spirit link, ect.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/gladius-v3 -VERY- useful arena addon. Shows their trinkets, major cooldowns, health and mana into small moveable unit frames.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/quartz This replaces the standard casting bars, with coloured and easy to see ones. They are sizeable, moveable, recolourable, everything. Plain and simply awesome.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/Tellmewhen This addon is abit more advanced, but so useful, and if you need help, i'll help with it in-game. You can make it show icons on your screen, for -your- buffs, but also the buffs and debuffs on your target. This is extremely useful for both pvp and pve, especially for any class that needs to keep dots up.

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/wim-3 If you, like me, get alot of whispers, this is such a must have. It opens up windows instead, unclugging your chat.

http://solidice.com/addons/wow/oqueue: This is another really great AddOn. A group finder, which allows you to find premades for various things.
