You can move your character to another server if you wish. I think it costs about $25, and there may be some restrictions.
Yep, it costs $25 to do a server transfer (I did one this weekend, so it’s fresh in my mind). I think the only restrictions are that you can’t move vast quantities of money over (I think it’s limited to something like $50,000 gold for a level 85), your guild affiliations are lost, and you can’t move to a closed server (closed due to high population). Other than that, you can change server, server type, faction, race, gender, name–anything you like–for a price (most of these I listed have individual costs associated with them.)
My guild put in another night of attempts on Ragnaros. High hopes for the next night, we are getting pretty good at the first two phases, so now we can work on getting better at the 40% transition. And egads, this fight must have just been brutal before the nerfs…
Regarding the PVP server thing. I play on a pvp server, and i’m Alliance. I’ve been ganged up on and snuck up on and camped by so many horde over the years that i don’t even think twice about world pvp anymore… any chance i get to kill a horde, i take it, no matter how cheap or fair it is. And let me tell you, there is nothing more satisfying than having a horde try to gank you, but you get the better of him, then you go stealth kitty, and kill him again as soon as he rez’s just for good measure…
Of course! I knew that, but it had ahem slipped my mind for some strange reason, sorry guys. I think I’m happy where I am, though. The other night I had a young lady speak to me who rolled a new toon on my server just to chat. I thought that was pretty cool.
Thanks
Q
PS: 50k??? You guys have THAT much g’s??? I only have 28k and I keep checking the AH for better gear, but damn, some of those guys charge about 15k-30k for some of that stuff!
“Stealth Kitty” Ha! I love it! I’m gonna start calling our Bert that. He has this bad habit of jumping either on mine or D’s bellies while we’re asleep!
Q
Oh, yeah. It’s fairly common to have that much now. My DK has over 40K and he just bought a couple of new weapons. One of my raidmates likes to play the Auction House (she sells enchant scrolls) and just topped 400K. A guy in my guild who’s a financial whiz has maxed his gold on several toons (that’s 200+K per toon) and has a cumulative amount of over 1 million gold (this is not common, btw! He’s weird like that–he gets his kicks in WoW from making money).
The restriction on transferring gold is more to thwart gold farmers, though.
My favorite is when you get one attack you, and then as he’s at 15% or so, his two buddies come over but they’re both at 50%-75% because they’ve been doing quests, maybe mobs are even still hitting them, meanwhile, I’m at 100% because shaman self-heal with maelstrom is epic against non-Arena junkies.
Pretty soon you’re 3-0 on the day.
If it makes you feel any better, I have 11k or so gold now, and that’s the most I’ve ever had across 3 lv85s. I just don’t care enough to raise money.
I can’t seem to get back to my alts. Those who do ride are on horseback now, and instead of 25g’s they now get paid 50 a week, so they’ll never be out of money, but I’m gonna have to spend some time with them, maybe I’ll pick one day a week to level them up one each. My 2 fave alts are Tailspin (Betty) and Usumbij with his white tiger. (“it’s good to see you again”, Usumbij!) :)
Q
I’m around 20k gold (on three toons) only because I just sold Dizze’s Whirling Robe for 9999g.
I’m an enchanter; I probably could make decent money with enchants if I weren’t so lazy.
Heh, the ONLY way I make money lately is buying greens/blues and disenchanting for a profit. Just about everything on my server that goes to heavenlies or essences is making me 10-40g per item.
Are you committed to a one-man guild, Quasi, or would you accept Jaejae into The Knight Who Say Ja? I could help you out by inviting your alts, too, if you give me guild officer access. I’ve been meaning to get back into the game, anyway, and Alex is as good a place as any for a cadre of Alliance toons.
You always have a standing invite, jayjay! Just let me know when you wanna do it.
Question: I’m trying to level up on my first aid and am currently on heavy frostweave bandage and level 470, As I understand it, I train up again when I reach 475, but my problem is, I’m turning in frostweave cloth and I just turned in 40 and the numbers haven’t budged off 470, and she’s not ready for me to train up. Does it take more than 40 to even get one point?
Thanks
Q
We took a while to do it and the big help was going to 2-healer setup. Also the Lava Scions appear before the Sons, so they can be grabbed up quickly by the tanks before focusing on the Sons. And lastly, we popped BL after the first scion got low. Hoping to have some left over to turn on Rags. Then it’s just a dance game with meatballs.
It Sold! Grats! I’m with you on money, I have about the same amount over 3 alts. I tried using one of the AH addons to make money and it worked once, but took a few days (I sold a Lightning Lash for 3500 but it took a bunch of attempts) Not sure how viable it is to keep using.
When you open up your First Aid window, what color is “Heavy Frostweave Bandage”? If it’s gray (which it should be at that 470) you won’t get any skill-ups from it. You need to start on embersilk. You should be able to train up to Illustrious Grand Master at 425, and you should be able to buy embersilk bandage skill at that point, too.

I just tried to send you a screen shot, but all you can see is Michelle Belle, the trainer.
However, yes, the frostweave section is gray, I am a grand illustrious whatever, and according to the box that opened up, I have to be a 475 before I can train up to start getting embersilk. I have some in my bank. I guess I’ll go get it and see if she takes it.
Thanks
Q
She didn’t take the embersilk, but took 40 more of my frostweaves which I was going to sell in AH. Here’s another screen shot: http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/Drummerboy49/firstaid2.jpg
Thanks
Q
Quasi, does she offer you training for embersilk bandage skill at all? If you right-click on her, does her dialogue include embersilk bandage as a learnable skill?
Nope, I’m standing right in front of her and right-clicked, but she ain’t sayin shit, jayjay. Time to open a ticket, ya think?
Q
She’s not opening a dialogue box at all?
