Progress is.... Steady.

So my DK is about half-way through 70 just from tanking instances. I've mostly just been doing one a day to get the Emblems of Triumph, and only once have I come across a healer that couldn't keep me up. I'm not the best at Death Knight tanking, but I'm getting a lot better at popping cooldowns when appropriate, and holding agro isn't an issue at all. The issue in question was the double boss in Utgarde Keep that has a high random damage component. The healer couldn't/didn't/wasn't able to keep up with all the damage, which was weird as a Tree Druid, but the group ended up switching around tanks and worked it out. I have to say though that really peeved me off since the general consensus of the group was that it was my fault, except of course the guy that took over tanking, he didn't think it was my fault. Personally, I know all sides of that encounter (as if it's something huge and important! ^_^ ) and I'd chock it up as Healer-Tunnel Vision, something I suffer from a lot as a healer. Sometimes it's just plain hard to keep an eye on your own health when so much is going on!

I've slightly broke in to the Glyph market, which, on my server, seems to be very atypical to what I read about on other people's blogs. There's many points where Glyphs are going for 30g+ each, and it seems to cycle through a lot of the different glyphs as people undercut each other down. What I've basically done is set up one group in QA3 for my Glyphs with a Threshold of 10g and a Fallback of 60g, and from there it's cancel/post until things sell. Which has been working out well, minus the fact that I've been buying a lot of raw materials for Jewelcrafting and Enchanting... Not to mention the things I've purchased to subsidize leveling Alchemy on two different characters at once. ^_^

Overall my liquid funds are still around 5k - 10k across my characters, but my stocks of things are way up. At one point I had about 600 Infinite Dust, and I've gone through about 250 of each type of green gem since I started (almost 1500 Saronite Ore Prospects), obviously I've been rolling these mats over in to Gems, Cloth, Glyphs, and whatever else I can thing of to produce, which has resulted in a huge amount of gold flowing through me. Unfortunately it's all flowing through right now and I haven't really got a backlog of stuff that I can keep selling without producing more to just build up my gold. I know that'll happen, but it's a little discouraging to stay at the "same gold amount" after working this for a couple weeks, which is why I'm keeping track of a few things like my Saronite Prospecting. When I start to feel emo about my AHing skills, I can just look at how much product I've processed/moved through the totals I've created and know that I'm spending things to build a better business and that I'm making gold to cover all of those expenditures.

Of course if I was keeping track of my large expenditures than I'd know where it was going...

Too many things to keep track of!
