Are you Insane Alto? Instant Respawns for Rep Grinding...

Hey folks!I got an email a few days back stating that there is an instant respawn location near the Gurubashi Arena, so I decided to check it out (thanks Gillian!). They are level 30'ish mobs, they are tightly placed, and they basically have an instant spawn rate.A video? Okay. I am still learning about vid's, so bear with me. No sound, no special effects, and of course, I didn't add an ending.

4.0.6 Update: Tiny Treasure Chest Droprate

I have some new droprate information for you all since the patch and recent hotfixes, as I am sure that you have been wondering if it's worth spending 250g on a Potion of Treasure Finding or not. I went to my time honored mob spot (Hyjal) and I timed an hour (ok, 1 sec short on my last loot) and here are the results:122g 54s 29c: Gold Looted52g 78s 40c : Random Greys, vendored85g 38s 83c : (10)

Another Farming "Quick Spawn" in Hyjal- We are Talking Volatile Air

Hey all! I hope you had a chance to listen to JMTCs Vent this evening, there was some great information tossed around, and I am sure that Mageshadow is going to be putting out some great content from it. Anyone that stuck around long enough won't soon forget the "Staying Alive" story. Wow. And then we found out the gold hero of the night is not only a "guru of gold", but also parlays as an

Friday's Farmings- Update with Drops and GPH from Guest Post at JMTC

Friday's Farmings, Hump Day Herbing, Mining Mondays. Hmmm. That might work. Good idea? Let me know what you think....Now for the post:This last week, I was fortunate enough to be asked for a guest posting at Just My Two Copper, and I wrote about a farming spot that I enjoy visiting since Cata. You can view my post here. I had an hour to kill last night, so I hit the area again, chugging a Potion

What Do Tuesdays Mean to You? Are You Prepared?

So what do you do to get prepared for Tuesday Patch/Hotfix day? The list below is in no particular order, but do not hesitate to see the importance of each of them as if they were all 1st on the list (however I must admit, that #1 is the most important in Alto's eyes).Do you:1. Read Alto's Hotfix/Patch Notes? (self plug there..) I do my best to read through Blizzards posted notes for you and

Everyone's Cata Vacation is over....Get ready for the Weekend NOW!

Whats that? More screenies? Ok. Here's yesterdays "The Openings"I am still selling ALOT of uncut gems, ores, herbs, runescrolls, glyphs, inks, you name it, they are selling. Remember, you do not need to spend every minute checking the AH, I do it one time in the morning, once at night. If available, I will post noonish (midday). So I only hit the AH three times/day. I do however scan each time,

Crusader Enchant Farming- Screenshot or it didn't happen......

As an update to a previous post on Crusader Enchant, here is a pic from 35 minutes farming (three "circuits") in Tyr's hand. If you have tried this area, then you know the Archmages are the only mobs that carry the chant, and they are easily picked out by the faint green glow from their staff, so if you just want to farm them, go right ahead. I recommend a full clear, as the respawns are random,

So you like to stand out in a crowd? Screenshot or it didn't happen.....

So, you like to stand out in a crowd?

Now this isn't exactly one of my "usual" farm spots (due to the fact that it drops from "rare" mobs, and as you know, they have a random spawn- in this case, 4- 8 hours from what I can tell), but it is however a place I used to have one of my toons staged for the Orb of Deception drop (I cannot take credit for this one, one of my past guildies that told me about Tyr's told me about farming the "

Farming Winterspring Recipies/Formulas for Profits

Here we go again, I am telling you about more of my "old school" farming habits. Yes, we are back on the Enchanting Formula.....this time Icy Chill. Yeah, this is one that used to be 10g (and if you got that back then, you were waaaay happy) but due to the economy, I am selling these for 300-450g depending, and there hasn't been any competition lately (for a month or so, I haven't seen anyone

Skinners Paradise....

Ok, here's we go all. Got a hotspot for [almost] continuous farming (when you do a cycle of the area, respawns are already there) for borean leather (scraps on the "pups") and arctic fur, and for a TON of Chilled Meat and Rhino Meat. Why this spot you ask? Because there is NOONE ever there. No issues, ever. Got a few more spots, don't sweat it if you are asking "wtf? why waste time farming scraps

Crusader Enchant Farming

So, I have been farming the crusader formula for years now, and it is always a great money machine when I am feeling broke. I am sure that you all remember the Scarlet Apprentices' up in the tower in plaguelands (if you dont, you must be "new" to the game, read on young grasshopper). Yeah, I too spent many a day (and /played) over there, and got a handful of the formula back in the day (and if
