A solid tip for players who level alts is to get yourself a white quality item and put your expensive enchants on them. They’re not soul bound and can be transferred to your alts. Boots with minor speed enchants and even mining picks with spell power or crusader on them.
You can also have a high level apply an hour long level 60 sharpening stone or wizard oil to white tradable items. Have fun one shotting mobs up to level 10.
you can also sell these items to start zone noobs, put 'em on a payment plan so they can pay you back when they 60 at like 3000% interest, it’s only gotta work once
I remember putting crusader on a white sword lol
I charged all in here like THERE ARE NO Heirlooms and then was like. Oh, yea… that is a good point!
10/10 on info
5/10 on clickbait title. . hehe
I wouldn’t trust a random Lannister to pay his debts. A spellpower enchant is about 100 gold at least. Plus most people would just keep the item.
nobody said you have to give them BIS, what’s a noob gonna know the difference between spellpower and beast slaying, it glows that’s the most important thing anyway
crusader is nice but lifesteal and firey weapon are more practical
This was a good lol, thank you
A PSA for those coming into classic from retail… don’t be surprised that you are in mostly, if not all, whites until lvl 15-20. The feeling of getting really excited over a white drop is a strange feeling.
Waiting for the first kneejerk post from someone who didn’t read the post, and reacted solely on the title of the thread.
Judging from my experience on the stress servers, started getting green drops around level 8.
Sure, you can get greens at lvl 5. From chest in starter zones. But usually are replaced by a white shortly after. Luck plays a big role. I was just saying whites stick with a new character for a while.
Oh yeah, luck is a big factor
You should be more greens than not greens before level 12. The shoulder slot specifically will always be white or EMPTY by that point, but quests often provide +1 stamina robes and such and you will get at least a couple incidental drops without much effort.
Oh, I’m not discounting that. Some greens have stats a white doesn’t. Unless you need the damage from the item, for me? I keep the green as long as I can.
BTW, great OP. +<3
Meee too I was thinking “It’s not even my shift yet and I gotta deal with another one of these…”
OP: good tips – old Vanilla player that didn’t realize you could do this.
Skinning knife with 30 SP was the most popular. Casters don’t actually swing their weapon, so DPS is not a concern. The SP by itself is better than most items pre 60.
Last character I leveled, I flooded him with swiftness pots and goblin rocket boots. I was zooming past other scrubs. Goblin boots you can use at low level without engineering, but they eventually explode. I kept making new ones until he got his wolf form (it was a shaman).
Some of us noobs knew beastslaying wasn’t going to help much, but still wanted it to fit in. I’m not going into level 19 WSG without glowing weapons thank you very much, the twinks would laugh at me.
Good advice. Can someone help me out please with info on good enchants on whites for a mage and holy priest? Thanks in advance.
