Update on multy gatherer

So as mentioned I started a death knight to be my gatherer character. How is it going? Since starting I have gone from 1500 to 4500 gold in the space of a couple of weeks. The best thing was the initial setup of routes and gathermate and then just selling evrything in sight. Hem has discovered the Darkmoon Fayre so we have agreed that she will keep the low quantity items from there and I have my Netherstorm ones.

As an aside hem needed some nightmare vine and being 78 means I do not get aggro even up close - I flew over to Shadowmoon Valley and had the starnge experience of being ignored - very odd.

To sum up should you do multiple gathering - yes most definitely.

She's a nightmare

Well the vine anyway. So tonite was my first venture to Shadowmoon Valley. My what a depressing place all fire and brimstone. However it is very good for herbing and being 78 I get ignored by mobs.

The black temple is more green but I couldn't get into it. Money is still going up nicely

Plant or stone

So which should I do... mining or herbalism.

Well the answer was both; with gathermate, gathermate data and routes I now herb and mine at the same time. With some mining gloves which give +5 mining I am well on the way.


I had an evening of mining etc and am up to 155 mining (see mining ding above) and 110 herbalism; I mined 23 silver which is quite good. The only thing I need to do now is learn AOE on my DK so quickly get rid of mobs.

On Death Knights

So I finally re-did my death knight and worked my way through the starting area and out to Stormwind. It was a good ride and very enjoyable - would I do it again... not sure. It compares quite well with the Wrathgate but maybe because I did both so close together the Death Knight was not as epic as I was told. Don't get me wrong though it was fun but it could have been "funner"

So the reason for this character - gold

I had the idea of getting mining and herbage but recently read an article to do mining and engineering to be able to collect eternals from gas clouds.... ooOOOooo what an interesting idea. There were lots of add-ons to get so will have to spend some time setting it up and will need to level a bit as well but should be fun.

... to the copper.......

update.. (later that day after reading up on engineering) too much like hard work... herbing and mining instead....
