Okay, you will all probably think im weird for doing this, but I'm going to give up mining, and pick up Blacksmithing. Leaving me with no gathering skill, and two skills that rely heavily on Ore from mining.

I intend on going the route of a Master Hammersmith to pick up the wonderfully Hemorhhagic [ITEM]Drakefist Hammer[/ITEM] (and subsequently the other two great hammers)

That's essentially the only reason I'm doing it.

Having said that, I'm going to be working on gathering all the materials required to go from 0 to 300 Blacksmithing - And 300 to 375 after that, prior to dropping mining. I'm working from the hard stuff down to the easy stuff, so If I get burned out on mining stuff that takes no skill to do it... I won't have to pay as much to buy it from the AH =D

So, I've discovered a neat little flash graph to help visualize my place on this quest of mine (I pretty much ran out of other quests to do, so It's time to make my own)
You can view my current place at the following address: http://bs300.porvaznik.net

And since Ricca was concerned about it earlier today -- No, It's not a Porn site, even though it sorta shares the first 3 letters, It's my last name =p

I'm going to be doing alot of mining in the Old World for the next long period of time, but if any of you have some spare stuff that Isn't at 100% on this tracking chart of mine, I would graciously appreciate anything you have just sitting around.

When I reach the materials required for 300 Blacksmithing, I will put up a tracking chart for 300-375 (which also unfortunately includes thorium) and keep everyone up to date.

Thanks for reading!
