Was able to get my Warrior up to 225 in both Fishing and First Aid over the weekend. I was also able to upgrade some of my armor through the auction house. Now I'm trying to enchant my equipment and make potions and scrolls. I should be able to do that tonight.

Played for a couple of hours last night. Ran around Elwynn forest to level up my mining for my Warlock and sold the copper bars in the auction house as I ran out of money which I was using to buy supplies so I can do my enchants. Right now I'm done enchanting my equipment so my next step is to make some Elixirs. My Priest is my alchemist but he doesn't have all the herbs to create the Elixirs my Warlock needs and he's too low of a level to gather (16) so I have to purchase them from the auction house or have my Rogue (lvl 34) go collect. It takes to much time for my Rogue to get them, so I've decided to just buy them. Their expensive and I've run out of gold so that's why I'm selling my copper bars at the auction house. They're going for 4-5 gold per stack so that's pretty nice and I think I put about 4 or 5 stacks out there. Hopefully they've all sold when I start playing tonight, then I should have plenty of money to finish uprgrading my gear for my Warlock. I will also need to make some scrolls with my Mage and probably a couple of armor kits. Here's what I need to do:

Make 4 Elixirs of Wisdom
Make 8 Scrolls of Spirit II
Make 2 Medium Armor Kits
Make Major Glyph of Corruption
Make Minor Glyph Drain Soul

After all this then I can level my Warlock up to 18.

I raised my enchanting skill to 150 last night for my Mage. In the process of doing that, I also raised my Druid' leather working to 106 and my Warlock's tailoring to 149. It's really cheap to make items through those two professions and then disenchant them. Now I move on to raising my inscription profession to 150. Currently it's at 103. This looks like it's going to be the most expensive thing to do as I need a lot of flowers to make pigments. The flowers I need now are in areas that are too high of a level to go collect with any of my characters that currently have herbalism. That leaves me with going to the auction house. When I saw the prices to make lion's ink my jaw dropped. I think the lowest price I saw was 35s per flower, which would mean I would have to fork over at least 1g 75s just to make 1-2 of the necessary pigments. I'm hoping that once I finally do this and create a major glyph that I can sell it for some type of profit. I briefly viewed the prices of some of the glyphs on the auction house and did notice that they were going for pretty hefty prices. So maybe once I get started things will move along a little easier. I see the high prices, but I just wonder if they actually sell.....

The Rockets play tonight so I won't get much playing time in, but hopefully I can continue leveling my inscription towards 150.

Turned in my Lighthouse quests for my Warrior and finally dinged level 18.

So then I moved on to my Mage who is currently level 16. My current goals for my mage:

1. Level enchanting to 150 (currently 131)
2. Level inscription to 150 (currently 101)
3. Level fishing to 150 (currently 1)
4. Level first aid to 150 (currently 79)
5. Update Mage's gear
6. Level Mage to 18

I actually worked on leveling my enchanting yesterday for a couple of hours. It sure is expensive! I went out to the auction house to buy items to disenchant which I suppose wasn't too expensive. I only bought low level items, all less than 30 silver. I also figured out I can make embossed leather gloves with my Druid which only cost 3 light leather and send it to my Mage to disenchant. This was much less expensive. I probably bought over 100 light leather from the auction house for only a few gold and made a crap load of these gloves and also leveled my leather working for my Druid in the process. This sounds like a pretty good money making strategy since the dusts go for pretty good money at the auction house and light leather is generally pretty cheap.

The only bad thing is that I will usually enchant vellums and try and sell them at the auction house. It doesn't seem like many people care for lower level enchants so I don't make any money off of them.

Hopefully I'll be able to finish leveling my enchanting this evening.
