My New Wings!
For the last few weeks I have been doing a lot of farming. I mean a lot. I have been hanging out near Dun Niffelem in order to farm the elementals there. Not only do they drop Crystallized Fire, but also the Relics of Ulduar. At the same time I would do my daily quests, all of which would end up netting me about 400 gold per session including vendor trash.
My goal was to be able to buy all the cards for the Nobles Deck. During the Darkmoon Faire I would then trade this in to get the Greatness Card. All told, this should cost approximately 12,000 gold.
However, last week I made the tough decision to put this off and work instead towards getting my epic flyer. Since this costs over 5000 gold, this would put off getting my Nobles Deck for quite some time.
Or so I thought.
As it turns out, getting my epic flyer was the best decision I could have made. This is my first epic flyer on this server, and it has been almost a year since I used one an old toon on another server. I had forgotten how easy mining becomes when you can actually move at a reasonable pace. 280% speed increase is a lot better than 60%, and just yesterday after picking up my flyer I was able to farm and make another 1200 gold. Now with any luck I should be able to finish my deck before the next Faire.
So if you have a gathering profession, and you are questioning whether or not to spend the money on your epic flyer, let me assure you that it is a purchase well worth making.
