“Most Popular” Rankings Debut!

July 1, 2009 by kaliope

As some of you may know, we’ve been experimenting with information from the WoWPopular folks with the idea of creating ‘Top Ten’ lists for our crafters.  I’m happy to say that we’ve completed our work and we’ve launched the lists on our web site.  For those of you who haven’t already stumbled across it yet, you can see our new “Most Popular” rankings here:

Epic Gem Changes Already

June 30, 2009 by kaliope

So there was a Blue post on Monday indicating more changes to the epic gem transmutes that were just discovered last week.  Most importantly to all Alchemists is the addition of a cooldown: Read the rest of this entry »

How to Make a Wormhole

June 30, 2009 by kaliope

First, I want to thank all you guys who left comments about the new Engineering changes that were published yesterday.  I spent most of Monday at airports and on planes, so I was unaware that new tradeskill changes had occurred.  From what I’ve seen, Engineers are rejoicing at all the new toys coming their way and I certainly don’t blame them.  Patch 3.2 looks to be the patch that us tinkers were waiting for :)

Vacation Notice!

June 29, 2009 by kaliope

Just want to let you all know that I am going out of town today and not returning for two weeks (7/13).  I am taking a small netbook with me and will be checking in when I can.  I also have the Test Realm software installed and I’ll do my best to stay on top of PTR updates.  Posts may be sporadic though, just wanted you guys know what’s up :)

Other craftables in Patch 3.2

June 28, 2009 by kaliope

I wasn’t able to find enough data for some of the other tradeskills on the 3.2 Test Realm, so I’m just going to combine this information into one post.  Here are some screenshots I took of new recipes in Leatherworking, Inscription and Engineering, plus a couple of items for Alchemy and Jewelcrafting: Read the rest of this entry »

Titanium Prospecting Results (Patch 3.2)

June 26, 2009 by kaliope

I brought two stacks of Titanium with me and farmed a third stack on the PTR yesterday.  So I had 3 stacks of ore to test prospecting with – I know it’s not a huge sample.  As soon as the character copies open up again I’m going to send more ore across to expand on this list.

New Alchemy Recipes from Patch 3.2

June 25, 2009 by kaliope

So I popped into the Test Realm this morning and found new Alchemy recipes on the trainer in Dalaran.  They weren’t there yesterday when I checked, but they brought the server down around suppertime so perhaps that’s when they were added.  Anyway, these are the new recipes from the Alchemy trainer.  They may not be 100% accurate – I don’t have my Alchemist copied yet so I was just going by memory.

Epic Gem Vendor coming in 3.2

June 24, 2009 by kaliope

As mentioned in one of my previous posts, there will be a new epic gem vendor in the next patch.  Technically he’s not new, it’s the current badge vendor Harold Winston.  The good news here is that we’ll be able to purchase epic gems with Badges of Heroism!  This is great for non-jewelcrafters who won’t be able to prospect their own ore.  And it follows in the tradition of the precedent set in Burning Crusade, so it’s not really shocking.  It’s nice though =)
