Its about to get exciting.. I hope... Are you making plans for MoP

Fail to plan is a plan to fail... Begin organizing thoughts plans and ideas for your MoP game... Lots of data is still needed to get great detail, Like what zones to focus on for vendor gear rep grinds etc, but you can plan ahead now for a lot of other things... Like piles of cheap leveling mats for the flood of new Pandas coming out... Or buy them cheap now and store them for your own panda...  What toon to level first? and why...

The MoP press event is getting close, so you can expect a great many things to start popping up with that news in about 2 weeks... Its going to be nice to finally get some more info on the next Ex Pac.

When it comes to gold making the good news is that things that worked in the past still will, (except your addons).  Things that enhance gear or feed that process will still be good money makers after you get your profs leveled up... jems, chants, leg armor/threads belt buckles, and of course GEAR...

The bad news is addons will break... and some will no longer be maintained... You can expect many to be pretty good from the beta, but no guarantees they will work in the opening days of the Xpac..

Things to consider.... How would you function if your complete addon suite was broken... Do you have enough other documentation and data on other external sources to continue?  That is in part why I was able to make a killing on 4.3, addons broke, however, due to storage strategies, and manual spread sheets, I knew values and costs... Posting had to be manually done, yeah, and it was not as fast as the ZA cancel/post, but I was still able to quickly post at the right prices and a good volume based on spreadsheet data and how/where I had things stacked in the Gbank...  

It was about planning, and now I hope we will start to get some more info about MoP to start planning and do a little less guessing, where every thought has conditional statements attached that could completley default the theory... 

Get ready to start prospecting 5.0/5.1.   There is going to be new info, and there is going to be a new buzz in blogger world... Unless you dont want to be ready, you dont want to make gold and you want to be the second person to the dance...

My Plans for 5.0...
Level the Main raider first, feral tank... he is a JC/chanter... while leveling DEing quest rewards is one of the best almost passive income sources while leveling after a new Ex Pac IMO...  Farming mats takes a bit of time and distracts from the actual quests and such you are working on... but it not by much and farming will be massivly profitable in the begining.

Thats it.. the rest.. who knows how it will roll.. A Monk is definately in the cards somewhere..

Feral Tank: JC/enchanter, this is the raiding main and will likely be my main focus to level up, gear up and max profs, and start doing the JC dailies if they continue to exist in the next Xpac...

Disc Holy/Priest is currently Scribe/Alchy and will be Scribe/Tailor when the shamy gets finished leveling, beyond that, no idea where this toon will fit in...

Prot Warrior: Miner/BS, he is the only "farmer potential toon I currently have, or plan to have come MoP"

Hunter: LW/enchanter, this guy will just get a back seat and who knows how it will play out...

And the Enh/Resto Shaman: Enchanter/alchy, got this toon dusted off and leveled up to 82 this weekend, maxed enchanting out and next is power leveling alchy.  Once alchy is maxed out, I will drop alchy on the priest and go tailor...   No way that toon will drop inscription... Takes too much to learn all the glyphs, and he knows them all...

Then there is the Panda Monk.. What professions to go with? no Idea... But a Leveling kit is a good idea... Like a bank alt with Pile of goods for his profesions leveling... and gearing up on the path... cloth for First aid and ore/bars/leather etc. for the other profs... However, this is not yet known, I will likely go Engineer, JC...

For now planning ahead involves 2 things... cleaning out and stocking up... Clean out junk, and organize/stock up stuff for MoP... like cloth/herbs/ore/bars for all the leveling pandarens.. For this BC and NR mats will be the focus... Things stocked up like rods... for all the enchanters and other things like primal mights for them too... adamantite.. since there is, last check anyway, still a painful leveling spot in JC that requires a lot of it... Time to really start focusing on all this stuff...
