Lichborne: Professions for level 85 death knights
Every week, WoW Insider brings you Lichborne for blood, frost, and unholy death knights. Join World of Warcraft's first hero class as we head into a new expansion and shed the new kid on the block label. With your death knight at level 85 and all kitted out for raids, there's one more step you can take to make your death knight the best he can be: Learn some professions. A profession can provide self-buffs that nudge your DPS or suvivability up to the next level. It can grab you a lot of extra gold on the auction house (or drain all your gold, depending on which profession you take and how you choose to level it). Finally, it can provide you with some cool toys. This week, we'll take a look at WoW's professions to see which ones are tops for a death knight.
Crafter epic cloaks obtained, screenshotted and guides written
So how long has GU42 been out? Not even three days yet? Bravo EverQuest II crafters, bravo. Over at EQ2 Traders Corner, we get to see shots of some newly obtained crafter epic cloaks, and partial guides on how exactly you can get your hands on them. A note from Niami Denmother at EQ2TC before you get started (to scare off all the posers): 100 gathering will be required -20K (that is negative 20K) or better faction with Bathezid's Watch will be required T5 rares, and several imbue materials from T7 and T8 will be required Cooperation with crafters of other professions will be required. Unless they have 9 separate accounts, one for each of their level 80 crafters, even the most independent and antisocial crafter will need to work with other crafters and the commission system in order to receive the rewards. Even though some people have been able to churn these babies out in a matter of days, there's still a lot of work involved. For some extra incentive, however, it's not just the cloaks that you'll receive. You also get a prefix title, one of each tier 8 rare resource, a mastery certificate to place in your home, and without a doubt the best reward, a super nice piece of jewelery: the Earring of the Solstice. The earring is actually better than the cloak (each cloak has the same effect, +800 vs heat and an increased success chance of 1.4%) and should be considered the main reward -- but the cloaks are pimping too. You can see a gallery of all the cloaks EQ2TC has so far here.
