Thanks. How to get there would be the next question at 85? Not even done the initial leg of quests.

My google is failing me ultra hard. No where does it say

(I'm currently aboard the skyfire ship, i think it'll take me to pandaria next)

edit: closer than I thought, I could swim there!
Thank god I brought the sea horse mount a while back lol

edit2: hope this don't screw up anything in general, I think I still need to quest elsewhere to learn flying, etc.... bleh

The repair vendors are to the north of Old Piju and there's a mailbox there so you can mail yourself things from alts.
I strongly recommend you keep yourself queued for dungeons since they'll break the monotony.

Ya I'm mixing it up and slowly doing it while watching the world cup.

Funnily enough, it feels less boring than questing. I don't mind it for now. Working on my mantid archaelogy for that sword so I can enchant it and dump it on my Paladin. Nearly at 86/87, will buy a full set of 400+ gear and some random enchants to smooth out the process and/or switch to ret.

Funny to read general chat of the Huolon QQ. I'm unsure why so much people are obsessed with it. Saw a random guy completely go berserk swearing left and right cause someone killed it before he got there, then he called out everyone for being selfish and such lol

Is it the mount it drops?

**Correction** · 2014-07-04 12:47

It drops a mount.

It also respawns beteen 30-60 minutes since last TOD so yeah the drama is high-tier. On weekends Huolon is lucky to survive for 3 minutes after spawning.

I know healing is changing a bunch in WoD, but which class would be good to learn to heal with? Currently I have a 90 priest and paladin. I also have a 55 druid that I was planning on boosting once it hit 60. Any other class that would be better to level/boost to learn to heal with?

**aurik** · 2014-07-07 11:54

Disc is probably changing the most. So anything but that.

**The Stig** · 2014-07-08 04:11

So I was fishing around Darkmoon Island (for some quick gold) on my RPPVP server. One thing I completely forgot was that I was in fact in a PvP server lol -- so when I noticed my name was green and 3 reds breezed past, I immediately felt excited/unsafe (I was 26, they were ??)

To my disappointment, they ignored me. Whether they were being nice or that I'm "too weak to be worthwhile" I always thought it's kill on sight if the chances of winning were high... or did they plant an anti-griefing rule recently?

edit: i suppose they could be just nice people ... lol

edit2: another question came to mind, can't find a quicker answer. Can I sent my Zin'rokh ( BoA sword ) to my alt, apply transmog, then send it back to my char that holds all BoA items and retain the look?

**aurik** · 2014-07-08 11:36

They probably didn't care. Just because you're on a PVP server doesn't mean everyone who plays there is into griefing. I regularly flew by lowbies on my PVP server without stopping to gank.

This. I hardly ever take the time to dismount just to kill someone for the sake of it. There's no point, I get literally nothing from it, and I've just inconvenienced somebody for actually no reason.

**Plow** · 2014-07-08 12:03

yeah, not worth the 3 seconds to finish global and mount back up

**The Stig** · 2014-07-08 18:20

I see.

On the fun side, I used the DMF mage to tele me to the staging point. When I landed, there was a mini army of lvl 90 alliance players hahaha! One of them /dance with me. I stood around, looked, and then realised, then belted for the the portal lol. Took me a moment to realise they were all red. Was very nice of them not to end me!

No, there was a short period of time when heirlooms were moggable and the mogs didn't erase when you mailed them to another toon but Blizz hotfixed it. I wish they wouldn't, heirlooms are beyond ugly to look at.

**The Stig** · 2014-07-08 18:43

Hm, thanks for replying, but I think I might've phrased it wrong judging from your reply. I'll try again:

Mail X item that I want to apply the look of to my alt (I'm aware of the "rules" that I can only transmog if I can equip it, so level/weapon restrictions apply)
X item lands on alt, I go and use X item's appearance on my alt's weapon
Mail X item back to my "char with all bind on account items" for storage

Will my alt's weapon retain X Item's look after I mailed it back despite it not being in my bag? That's all. Logging off for sleep now though, so no rush in replying, I'll check tomorrow.

**brozy** · 2014-07-08 21:29

If im reading right, you're wanting to apply a transmog to an item that you will use on an alt with an item on your main/other chara? if thats the case then no i don't think it works pretty sure it wipes them once you mail it but not 100% sure

**Clash Perez** · 2014-07-08 22:13

He's keeping the transmogged item on his alt. He's not moving that item at all. He's shifting around the item he wants to use as the transmog model.

In my recollection, unbound items used as a transmog template are bound during the process. IIRC, that applies to everything -other- than BoA items, so I think you'll be safe.

I think I tested this once (using the BoA weapons found around MoP) but it's been a long time and my account is no longer active so I can't verify.

I think you're safe, though, as long as the template item is BoA.

**The Stig** · 2014-07-09 03:31

Yup template item is BoA. I'm just not high enough level to try yet lol (zin'rok is 85)
On second thought, assuming it's cheap at low levels (transmogging), I could mail over my BoA mace and apply it to sword as a test, then mail the mace back over!

Thanks for the input though.

**Plow** · 2014-07-09 06:17

you can do what you're wanting to do stig, what you originally asked

there's also one pretty awesome bug with the trade window from raid loot, transmogging doesn't reset it

so... if you happen to have a friend with say... corrupted ashbringer... you can let them take a 2 hand weap, mog it to that, then trade it to you and you get to rock the ashbringer

**Aksannyi** · 2014-07-09 06:19

I was pretty sure that mogging made all items soulbound, with the exception of heirlooms but they erase when you send them to another character.

**Plow** · 2014-07-09 07:16

you're right other than that bug, but he's not trying to do that

he wants to mog his alt's weapon into a different heirloom

**Aksannyi** · 2014-07-09 07:17

Oh lol ... I didn't know anyone actually liked how heirlooms looked.
