Paladin offers gold for public service

Posted by : kimjone

"WoW players have been known to spend quite a bit time donating to charity. Salahdin of Underscore on Lothar has come up with a unique way to encourage that public service. Though he doesn't outright say he's suffering from pre-expansion burnout, Salahdin does say that he doesn't play like he used to. And, he's got extra gold sitting around. With that in mind, Salahdin found a unique thing to do with it. He challenges folks to get a picture of themselves doing charitable service to others. If you can't get a picture, write a 100 word essay about what you did. Post it to the forum, and he'll reward you 100 gold in game. His premise is that instead of grinding gold for an hour, he's paying you to do something good for the world. It's a dang impressive idea, and I wish I had the extra cash around to do it myself. While the cynic in me worries that this might not be for real, the starry-eyed optimist is grateful to see a little goodness from this little corner of the world. I hope he gets a lot of people taking him up on his offer" "Eyonix made a lot of players happy the other day by announcing the start of Season 4. It's something that a lot of players have been waiting for, even planning for. Some players will be making the mad rush to accumulate Arena and Honor points. Within the first week of the new season, players who have stashed away the maximum 5,000 Arena points will be able to purchase anywhere from two to three pieces of Brutal Gladiator gear, provided they achieve the required personal ratings. For other players such as those who have only recently dinged 70 or those new to the PvP scene, the 75,000 maximum Honor -- or whatever Honor they have stashed away -- will likely be used to purchase Merciless Gladiator gear when it goes on sale.


More seasoned players will use the Honor to purchase Guardian gear to round out their equipment slots. wow gold When Season 4 starts, players will be strutting around Azeroth in brand spanking new gear. For a select few, these players will look like walking piles of Gold. New Arena seasons flood the community with enchant-worthy, gem-hungry gear like no other event. Enchanting Enchanters should have a field day when Season 4 finally arrives, as virtually all players will be eager to purchase their gear the moment servers go up on that day. wow gold This means a throng of people crowding the vendors in the Hall of Legends in Orgrimmar or the Champion's Hall in Stormwind City. Players purchasing their Arena gear will likely head to the Ring of Trials, as it is nearest Shattrath City. Eager enchanters should set up a cozy spot on top of the Orgrimmar bank or the bridge in front of the Auction House in Ironforge. wow power leveling You can also sidle up to A'dal to wait for players with shiny new Brutal Gladiator gear. Because the Brutal Gladiator gloves can be obtained without needing to play any Season 4 games, these might be among the first purchases for many players. It might be prudent for Enchanters to complete their gloves enchant recipes, in particular the Major Spellpower, Spell Strike, and Major Healing. These three recipes come from reputation vendors, with the Major Spellpower formula available at Honored from the Keepers of Time, the Spell Strike formula from Cenarion Expedition at Revered, and the Major Healing formula can be bought from the Sha'tar at Honored. mp3 players The popular melee-oriented enchantments, Major Strength and Assault, can be learned from the trainer. Many players will also be purchasing weapons, from the Honor-purchasable Merciless Gladiator weapons to discounted Vengeful Gladiator weapons.
It will take a while before we see players sporting Season 4 weapons, given the restrictive 2050 personal rating requirement, but weapons from Season 2 and, to a lesser degree, Season 3 will be disseminated to the player base. Most weapon enchant formulas are (usually BoP) drops, so unless you've lucked out in Karazhan, Zul'Aman, the Level 70 5-mans, or even the Auction House, you'll have to settle for the vendor-bought Greater Agility and Major Striking. wow gold Unfortunately, the former is often passed over in favor of Mongoose (which drops of Moroes) and the latter for Savagery (from the Shattered Halls) or Executioner (from Zul'Aman). Enchant Weapon - Major Healing will also see a lot of customers, and is easily obtained with Sha'tari Revered. Even if it will take some time for most of the Brutal Gladiator gear to spread through the player base, since Season 2 rewards become purchasable with Honor points, there will be plenty of gear to enchant. Other players will not pursue Season 4 rewards but instead purchase the personal ratings-free Season 3 items, including the more accessible weapons and relatively attainable shoulder pieces. wow gold As nice an upgrade as the Brutal Gladiator items are, many players have a disdain for mismatched gear. Enchanters have less than two weeks to farm or buy popular PvP enchants such as Enchant Chest - Major Resilience. "
