I had to sit on Mining for a while until my Paladin was strong enough to handle being in areas where you could find Iron to mine. A 25th level Paladin making a dart into Thousand Needles or Desolace just to mine some iron seems an exercise in suicide to me. I'm sure that this is done deliberately to string people out, but would it hurt having something <i>other</i> than Copper or Tin in the Ghostlands or Barrens? Kind of like when I was hunting for something my Herbalist Priest could use to advance his skill -Mageroyal, anyone?- and finding another freaking Peacebloom. The Inscription profession frowns rather heavily on the Peacebloom milled pigments after a short while, so something other than that would be nice in the 20's levels too.Redbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306063084983025771noreply@blogger.com
