Oh Zul'jin.... What takes you so long?

Zul'jin is just about the last realm to come up after every Tuesday Maintenance. Now this is purely anecdotal, and I've only been on the realm for a couple months, but it's always last to come up. I gotta get on and post my auctions again! ^_^

Real life has been kicking my ass lately, what with four wondrous days of intense jaw pain with an infected tooth, starting right at the beginning of the weekend, the sleepless nights of pain and ice, and the lack of antibiotics until Monday to get it cleared up. Thankfully I've got a dentist appointment this afternoon so I'll be able to get the offending tooth back on to the road to recovery, but man what a pain...

Also, it's finally winter here, after months of next to no snow, we get dumped on (sort of) with lots of heavy, wet snow.

Blech...

But on to happier things in game. I'm up to about 35k in liquid gold with my typical stock floating around. My "less time posting glyphs" plan hasn't really cut in to my glyph profit, which is kinda weird, but I guess not really since I'm doubling up my glyph posts so I have a better chance of moving two of the same type in the time periods.

Enchanting scrolls are positively a gold mine, with lots of movement and never enough to stock anything. Pretty much any time I make some, it's just the best profit margin scrolls and within a week they're all gone and I'm scrounging to get more mats for new scrolls. I guess I really should up my prices and work off mats on the AH rather than try to process materials myself. Less profits, probably, but less work.

Other markets are pretty much as they were, rare gems are still moving, bags go like crazy, prism green gems are great, inscription off-hands are moving well, and now some elixirs used to level are moving well too. Overall lots of little transactions pay off well. ^_^

On the character front I've got my Priest and Druid up to 70 now, at least I think my Druid is 70, or at least 69, and my Death Knight is 72. Ironically enough I'm getting lots of complaints when tanking on my Druid or Death Knight, mostly for waiting for people to catch up to the group, or "not holding agro" against people who start AoEing right off the start, as in before mobs even get to me... I'm not sure what I can do about that on my Druid, but I'm thinking of front-loading threat more on my Death Knight by forgoing disease application and instead going straight to a Howling Blast/Blood Boil/Blood Boil opening. I saw sort of that suggestion on MMO Champion's forums, and I'm thinking of looking in to it more to satisfy the "gogogogo" DPS crowd.

I know I'll mostly be enabling their stupid behaviour, but if it works, then it works. Also still think a "Boss Fight Explanation" mod would be awesome. Gotta look to see if there's something like that out there or how hard it would be to make one...

All the other servers are up, but Zul'jin's still down...
