Wardrobe UI Preview For New Transmog Feature In Legion Alpha
YouTube: WoW Legion Wardrobe Transmog UI Preview - Legion Alpha
This is a very brief overview of the UI for the new "Wardrobe" feature in the World of Warcraft Legion Alpha. The interface is very similar to the addon MogIt but the fact that it will be account-wides has far reaching implications in the transmog market. Time will tell whether it helps or hurts the market. People may only have to buy an item once now but they also may be willing to spend gold knowing that it will work across all there characters.
(Note: In the video at places you can hear my voice twice. Due to a glitch I had to re-record this video from a window on my desktop and forgot it would record the audio from my mic also. I'm singing a lullaby to my daughter from Oh Brother Where Art Thou. lol)

The Gold (Queen) Standard of Compassion
There's a song that we sing in church that came to mind after reading about The Gold Queen's incredible act of compassion.
Have I done any good in the world today?I encourage you to head over and read about what was able to be accomplished by one human being reaching out to help another human being in need.
Have I helped anyone in need?Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?If not, I have failed indeed.
(You can also catch The Gold Queen on the latest episode of the Power Word: Gold Podcast.)
Bravo TGQ. You never cease to amaze me.

Dipping a Toe Back In
I found myself with a few spare hours tonight and decided to spend 23K gold to reactivate my account for 30 days.
It wasn't an easy choice. I literally shut the game down twice before finally pulling the trigger. I'm going to put on a tech podcast, enjoy a few hours in the game (yes I still do actually day dream about playing WoW sometimes and I don't daydream ever) and try not to get sucked back in.
All I want is a few mindless hours visiting the world I love getting lost in.
(Sadly I've already wasted 1.5 hours just updating all the things my computer needed to update: Anti-Virus, Battle.net client and Steam. I'm sure iTunes and Flash will be bothering me soon.)
One other thing that only playing a few hours means is that I can dispense with things that take more than two hours including auctions, garrisons, etc. Perhaps a bit of laid back leveling on my Druid.

WoW Token
4/11/2015
It's About…Time
Who would have thought all that time spent making gold would mean I would never have to pay real money to play World of Warcraft again.
At the current price I have enough gold to buy 10 years worth of WoW Tokens (or 5 years of time running 2 accounts simultaneously).
Do you want to know what the removal of a real money monthly fee has made me realize? That if I'm not playing WoW it isn't because I don't have the money and it certainly isn't because I don't like the game.

WoW Token

Buying 7.5 Years Of Game Time - WoW Tokens By The Numbers
Blizzard announced today that the WoW Tokens were going to go on sale tomorrow, April 7, 2015. These tokens can be used to give you 30 days of game time.
The real money cost for the Tokens will be $20. The initial starting price to buy the tokens from the auction house (and potentially purchased without resubscribing) will at initially be set by Blizzard at 30,000 gold.
While the price for tokens will start to fluctuate based on market activity (if there are too many tokens for sale the price will drop and if there are too few the price will rise) I thought it would be fun to play with some Token math.

What Are The Material Costs of Work Orders?
If you're like me you are a bit obsessive and completionistic about making sure you are doing your work orders on all of your alts. But what are you spending in material cost to stay on the "hamster wheel" of garrison work orders and should you even be spending that money?
I've been playing around with the spreadsheets I have been building using TSM data (See Build a WoW Item Pricing Spreadsheet Using TradeSkillMaster .CSVs + Google Drive Sheets) and one of the sheets I have calculates the cost of materials necessary for doing work orders on various professions buildings.
Head past the jump for an idea of what it costs to pump out work orders day after day on your characters.

The Curious Case of "Honest Jim", Rare Goods Vendor
Ever since I worked at an MMORPG company and I found out one of my co-workers who had worked on World of Warcraft had an NPC in WoW named after him I've always thought it would be awesome to have an NPC or item in the game named after me.
While I do have an NPC named after me in a previous MMORPG I worked on, having someone (or something) in World of Warcraft would be awesome.
Earlier tonight I found out about (and bought off trade chat) Erorus' Ledger of Trade which is a reference to Erorus, the creator of The Undermine Journal.
I even went into April and let her know that Erorus has an item in the game and how cool that was. I then also mentioned how it would be cool if I had an item in the game but I likely wasn't popular enough for that.
Later that night I decided to build a Trading Post (of course I would!) for my garrison building in The Spires of Arak.
Imagine my surprise and delight when I used my garrison ability (called "Smuggler's Run") which summons a Rare Goods Vendor and his name was "Honest Jim". I thought that was pretty neat but as I looked closer I started to notice some things.
- He's a human named Jim.
- He has facial hair. (Although, he also has hair on his head which doesn't fit my theory. lol)
- His flavor text reads "If you've got the gold, I've got the goods!".
- He is a Rare Goods Vendor (get it…Rare Goods, as in Blues).
- He sells you many rare items, some at pretty high prices (2,200g for a 28 slot bag!?!).
When I thought about all of the above it dawned on me that someone at Blizzard may have been thinking about me when they made this NPC.
(I have directly asked a few Blizzard employees I've interacted with over the years if there was a chance I'd ever get an item in the game. #iainttooproudtobeg)
2,200g for a bag? That's some ignorant bull…gimme one! |
Being realistic there is a good chance that all the above is purely coincidental and there is no connection at all between "Honest Jim" and myself (Jim Younkin) but in my head I'd like to think there is.
Until someone from Blizzard confirms or denies it I'll just be happy in the knowledge that there's a chance that someone at Blizzard thought enough of me to put an NPC in the game as a reference to me.
Now I can die happy. #micdrop
