I have a t2 excavation on my main and can feed a blacksmith and an engineer alt, which both have mining, but I don't really stop mining anything anymore and certainly don't go out of the way to pickup a node. I still have plenty of spare ore.

It's the same for every profession, EXCEPT maybe alchemy. All your professions' demand is capped by the daily cooldowns+6 WO, which the mine or garden is enough.
Being a brewmaster and without Barracks I never used a bodyguard, but assuming I want one for my shadow priest, what should I do? Barracks level 2 and then it gains level with me

The bodyguard is always of your current level, and gets no bonus from its follower level or ilvl (except a cosmetic one at higher ilvl). If you ding with the bodyguard, it will ding when it respawns (after you get down from a vehicle/flypath).

For casters, I highly recommand Illona (if you're alliance), the Talador bodyguard. She's the best tank ever. When you get in Talador, immediately complete your outpost questline before the rest, get your Outpost manual which is the first that can unlock a level 2 large building, and use it to improve the Garrison.

Note: you still have to send the follower on missions (when you're not playing) to get XP, or he/she'll stay at her current level, even if your bodyguard is level 100. That's schizophrenic, but you can have a level 100 bodyguard which is a level 95 follower.

Cool. Thanks a lot. I'll try to get that follower as soon as possible.

LFR was so good to me last night.. got 3 clusters of stones and 3 individual stones plus one of the work orders from my mine dropped a stone - ended up at +19 from the previous week just from LFR + mine.

Can someone explain me the mechanic behind Drov and Tarlna world bosses? Are they on a short respawn timer so that if i form a raid for one, by the time we get there, theyll be up?

Also, my bro did an rbg last night and came out with an epic pvp piece after a win. Are they relatively common? Ive yet to run some this expension.

Constant repop, easy to do with raid tool. You can just tag them also if you are at their spawn.

What is the point of the Mining and Herbalism professions now? I don't think it is even possible to use all the ore you gain from the Garrison mine even if you are maxing out both personal cooldowns and work orders on multiple buildings.

You can make blue jewelry to DE for dust and shards if you have a JC with all that ore. Also many people bot their herb and miners for tons of primal spirits to convert into bloods and sell.

Leoarjh is a good choice as well as he does dps and heals. Downside of the tanking ones is if you can't heal them they tend to die to silver names when you are leveling.

You can get epic pvp pieces (up to 3 per week iirc) from winning RBG's. As with most of that shit it's random and they can be duplicates.

The world bosses are just zerg fests. They're constantly respawning and you can use the raid finder thingy to join cross realm groups.

Pretty salty that I still haven't had a world boss drop anything.

The only problem with that is that I already have too much dust and shards...All the enchants worth making to sell are use Temporal Crystals which are also gated behind cooldowns. Its like they turned the entirety of the Profession system into freemium gaming

I had a belt drop last night, the day after I bought the (awesome) pvp one. Think they don't drop anything that is actually good for my class anyway but them's the breaks.

Well I was getting extra salty seeing all the plate chest pieces drop to some fuckwads who probably came decked out in ilvl 610 gear

Although, one tank was decked out in PVP gear and holy shit I need to get in on that.

True, some people have an army of alts with enchanters huts and keep full work orders going with that dust. I would think they will eventually have prospecting for taladite crystals at some point. The gathering professions really are only good if you bot.

Would be nice to have some of you 650-660+ pros join us in the RR guild. You can help your bros with normal and round out our mythic / heroic group so we don't have to pug.

My rogue is now 650, but there's no way in hell I'm going back to 300+ ping. Wouldn't mind ripping it up with you lot though.

I did pretty good two clusters and a few single stones plus 2 solid upgrades and one side grade. Should make my normal raids this weekend easier.
