I decided to level my lowbie Troll Shammy, Oola, replacing Mining with Inscription, and retaining Herbalism. I followed Tarou’s guide on leveling Inscription, with good success so far. Some of his numbers for herbs are a bit off, and there are some typos on number of materials for certain recipes, but overall accurate. I’ll just need to double check the numbers of herbs needed for Milling, as I am now hitting the more expensive herbs and I don’t want to over stock in herbs. On the other hand, the access herbs may become hot sales items when Cataclysm comes out and people start power leveling their Alchemy goblins.
In between leveling my Shammy and Inscription, I’ve had little time to play my other characters, but I’m getting a kick out of the double XP bonus from kills for her after such a long time in storage.
More about her progression as her journey continues.
