How to Level Mining in World of Warcraft
As I stated in a previous post, I just finished leveling Jewelcrafting to 600 (thanks to this site HERE) and that wasn’t very much fun. The frowns were caused mostly due to the fact that I couldn’t get the lower level materials. This meant two things – one, I needed a gatherer, and two, I could make some decent gold if I had a gatherer. I decided that I would start a new toon who would just be my gathering mule.
Gaining levels would be easy, so I’d have to make sure I kept my profession skills up to date. Luckily Tarou recently updated his profession videos. The man makes some great video guides. Check out his site HERE, and his mining video THERE (and by THERE I mean below).
Isle of Thunder – Patch 5.2
I’m a little slow. There I said it.
Patch 5.2 has been out for, well, a little while now but I’ve been busy doing mostly non-Patch5.2 stuff. Specifically I have been leveling Jewelcrafting on Herculano the DK. Seemed like the thing to do, since I was Exalted with the Cloud Serpent people which gave me access to the cool JC Panther mounts.
Like Power Rangers, but without the stupid giant bosses in ugly suits.
Leveling Jewelcrafting on a low pop server sucks so much ass. You can’t find low level mats, not even ore to prospect. And when you don’t have a miner to help with the process, well you just want to find a way to kick yourself in the balls and do it repeatedly, knowing it would be more fun than profession leveling. But perseverance (and server transferring a character with Mining) paid off, and Herc hit 600 JC.
Success!
So what’s with the Isle of Thunder that I’ve heard so much about…
I think I got the original quest at some point, the one that prompts you to go to the Isle of Thunder. But something got bugged somewhere, and the quest didn’t show up in my Quest log. Therefore I had no idea how to find the Isle of Thunder. As luck would have it, I found a Youtube video that showed me the way. Here it is, for those of you like me who are just a little behind. So watch, learn, and I’ll be back with some Death Knight updates soon!
