WQ: Alliance Skinning Tip

If you have an Alliance Skin­ning alt, park it in Valiance Hold (Borean) and spend 20 min­utes a day skin­ning the fly­ing Scourged Flame­spit­ter just out­side your front door. It’s a nearly manda­tory quest so there are always peo­ple there, and those play­ers nearly always leave their mobs unskinned. Free money, piles of it! Don’t just […]
