How To Turn Off Outlines In Warlords of Draenor


If you don't like the "outlines" that Blizzard added in World of Warcraft Patch 6.0.2 the setting to turn them off is a bit buried. Here's how to turn them off.

TL:DR - Options > Interface > Display > Outline Mode > Disabled (or Quest Objectives Only)

How To Start & Turn In Garrison Missions in Warlords of Draenor



YouTube: How To Start a Garrison Mission in Warlords of Draenor

While we know Warlords of Draenor is still in beta we thought the Garrison mission UI was not really that intuitive. We made a few short videos showing how to start as well as turn in Garrison missions.

We also wanted to show off the cool little "mini-animation" that plays when you turn in that shows your follower doing the heroic deed you asked them to do. It's a nice little touch that makes the followers feel a bit more real.

Using TSM To Make & Sell Glyphs (With Faid)





YouTube: Using TSM To Make & Sell Glyphs Pt.1 - How To by Jim Younkin


After reading Faid's How to Compete in Glyphs post over at ClockworkRiot I got fired up to jump back into the glyph market. I decided I wanted to record the experience of setting up my entire glyph creation and selling set up for posterity.

I was lucky enough to have Faid join me to help me for each step along the way. If you've ever wanted a complete soup-to-nuts explanation on how to properly set up a large glyph operation these two video (clocking in at a combined 3 hours) are about as good as it gets.

Again my gratitude to Faid for sharing her considerable glyph selling knowledge and her patience with helping me get it set up. Part 1 is above. Head past the jump for Part 2.

Transferring? How To Choose A New Server For Gold-Making



It seems that a lot of people have been transferring or looking to transfer servers lately. When I asked why on twitter and Facebook the majority of the responses tended to fall into a few main categories including looking for a fresh start or wanting to "change things up" to add life back into the game.

Another common reason seemed to be a desire to leave a server where the player was having difficulty with making gold (often attributed to either a very high or very low server/faction population).

While I've been happy on the same server for the last 8 years (and have no desire to transfer) the reasons above are very valid. When Selltacular suggested writing a guide for gold-makers looking to transfer and I thought it was a great idea.

The following advice is for players looking at a server transfer as a way to improve their gold-making situation. Read on past the jump for more.

Speed Up Posting With Common Search Terms


In this post we will be going over how to significantly speed up posting of your 83-84 Mists of Pandaria items using a feature of TradeSkillMaster called "Common Search Term".

While this technique can be used for posting other types of items (most commonly Glyphs) it does have a few specific limitations. While I will be focusing this post on how to use it to speed up posting/reposting 83-84 Mists of Pandaria items it also works great for 77-80 Cataclysm items.

Read on past the jump for how to add the "Common Search Term" option to your own 83-83 Mists of Pandaria item groups and beyond.
