Well, it wasn’t entirely a boring week for me in WoW… I did stuff. And things!
Topic 1:
I livestreamed on YouTube for the first time in quite a while. I did about an hour of Scarlet Monestary runs for fun and profit and then healed on my pally.
It was interesting! I may do more healing in a livestream capacity this week, too.
Topic 2:
This expansion is going very differently than basically any other expansion. Kurn was first to level cap, which is the natural state of things, but then instead of Madrana (the paladin) or Beldinn (the shaman and farmer extraordinaire), my mage was second to 90. And then, this weekend, instead of either of the others dinging max level as the third 90, it was my druid. So weird. To be fair, the druid was 87, just like the shaman, but it’s just so much easier to farm herbs on the druid. And boy, did I farm. Not just herbs, though…
Topic 3:
And that brings me to what I really wanted to discuss here: pattern farming.
There I was, on the paladin, just minding my own business and doing a couple things here and there and I started finding these little things called Coalesced Light. Now, I’d seen these things before on Kurn, but hadn’t done the weekly quest with them for months.
And so Madrana was there, gathering them up all merrily… and gets a pattern. A tailoring pattern.
Like a good tailoring pattern.
And so I swapped to the druid to farm them A LOT, as well as gathering herbs. I got like one pattern and it wasn’t all that good. In fact, it was so cheap that I got my blacksmith to learn it.
Does ANYONE know how these work??? Is it like 1 pattern per toon per week?? 2 patterns per account per week? Or are all the patterns just that shitty in terms of drop rates? My elbow hurts from farming so much. And I didn’t even get the pattern I need on Madrana!
Any thoughts here? Would be super appreciated.
Thanks, gang!
