Powered by Wowhead

Wowhead recently updated their Powered by page with a guide to adding gems, enchants and set bonuses that will show up within item tooltips.

I have been levelling my hunter. He is level 75 so far, and mostly in blues, which is fun.

My priest got her [Emblem of Frost] cloak, [Volde's Cloak of the Night Sky]. And my mage finally got a robe upgrade, [Ancient Polar Bear Hide].

Achievement-wise, during the Noblegarden holiday, I decided to complete the achievements and get the title, the Noble, as well as achieve more towards What a Long, Strange Trip; which will eventually reward me with the [Violet Proto-Drake].

Speaking of 310% mounts, in Cataclysm, we will be able to purchase 310% mount speed -- possibly titled Master Riding. Not much detail has been released regarding this, but hopefully it will not be restricted to having a 310% mount before it is available.

There are many things I am looking forward to in Cataclysm. The recent Developer Chat on Twitter addressed a lot of things.

And a couple of weeks ago we started hearing a lot more about changes coming to all of the classes in the class previews, compiled together here. Exciting. ;)

Peace.

Trial of the Warrior

Ensidia wins the game

Zlaenya is now level 79 and motoring through Icecrown. I also tweaked her talents to set her up for my desired level 80 build. I ran Utgarde Pinnacle a couple of times, aiming for Ancient Royal Legguards but I only walked away with Vestige of Haldor. Running instances for specific gear is something I want to avoid, due to the randomness of drops. This is why I will probably end up gearing her up in mostly Savage Saronite Battlegear before repeatedly running Trial of the Champion on normal (iLevel 200 epics, such as Breastplate of the Imperial Joust).

When patch 3.3 hits, running instances will be a whole lot easier. The new dungeon tool will make it very easy to find groups. Once I have a few iLevel 200 pieces of gear, I will run random heroics as often as I possibly can for Emblems of Triumph, to trade in for iLevel 245 gear (and 2x Emblems of Frost per day, to be traded in for Tier 10!).

This is my current aim for pre-Heroic gear.

Peace.
