Pondering Warcraft's path..narf!

I've been pondering a few things about Warcraft lately.  I've noticed a trend that has grown more and more pronounced of late.

(TwoTwilight jabs in two posts is a good start)

Tips& Tricks - Tol Barad Gold

Nearly everyone has given Tol Barad a try but for those that haven't here is a quick rundown.

The first part of the zone doesnt require any PvP and is made up of several dailies.  Its a smallish zone with no flying.  Doable in new level 85 gear and incredibly easy with the gear inflation we have now.

Portals to the zone are right next to the major portal hub in Stormwind and Ogrimar making it easy to pop in and out of.  In fact if you buy the tabard you can use it as a second Hearthstone going to Tol Barad and then zoning through the portal to your capital city.

Its through that zone you reach the second zone.  Its locked off during PvP matches but you can wander in regardless of who is in charge to look around between matches. 

Transmogrification Tips

The only solid hit in the game this expansion for me has me the Transmog feature.  Even that was prevented from becoming a home run by the limitations they placed upon it.  My poor Demon Hunter has nothing I want to wear in her armor type and has ledgendary weapons  so whole other people can look all cool - I cant.  Oh I would use my 60 pvp gear but yea..

But bitterness over that aside its is still possible to look good and not follow the crowd.

Winter Veil Tricks

Here is an old trick you might not think of with Winter Veil.  Hardly overpowered but amusing.

Under the tree by Greatfather winter you will find presents for you to open.

The trick is to NOT open them.  Then you can bank them and use whats within later in the year.  But how do you know if you want to wait?  Well, if you aren't going to use wowhead to look them all up you just have to open it without looting.
