Recycling Heirlooms

Here i was thinking my post actually wasnt a flame, but i honestly can't see the big difference between swapping 2 pieces of equipment. As i said, you may take 2 seconds longer to kill a mob BUT you get more xp while doing it?

Just look at my example...

A warrior using cloth gear, all he's getting is stam and intellect, what's a warrior going to do with intellect? It's useless.

Not trying to flame or anything, but I really don't understand why someone just wouldn't use the built in equipment manager instead of going through all this fuss.

Sigh, i do understand what you mean by that, but the amount of strength and whatnot (he gets crits from some heirlooms too, woo) he would get isn't that big of a deal imo. It wont make the kills that much faster... I do understand using it on some elites / soloing quests but normal mobs die fast anyway...

Why the hell is everyone flaming? It's a valid guide and it's useful because people don't think to recycle heirlooms, I have a 85 mage will full cloth heirlooms and i'm currently leveling another rogue, hell I don't want my rogue to be waltzing around in cloth so i've been using the equipment manager to do exactly what Cheat'rs been saying. It's a valid guide and it's really useful if you want to keep the experience gain and have gear that actually benefits you. It takes seconds to switch from your gear to heirlooms using the equipment manager, turn in quests and switch back.

+Rep to Cheat'r and reported the flamers for cleanup.

Let me put this in layman's terms for those who can't be arsed reading and/or too stupid to understand.

You are warrior.
You have cloth heirlooms.
Cloth on warrior is bad.
Swap for handing in quests = lots more exp!
Swap back.
Hurrr a durr?

Thank you, GZ.

I think this guide is valid. If i saw a warrior leveling in cloth i would laugh hard. If your a warrior on a pvp server leveling in cloth you will no doubt continuously get annihilated by other players your equal level. As your gear is part of your class.

This can also be pretty decent if you play on a PvP server, and want to have PvP gear equipped while you're in the bush killing mobs.

Easier method

Instructions:

1) Create a "New Outfit" in Outfitter and set up this outfit to equip your BoA items that give experience.

2) Make sure "Disable automatic changes" is unchecked in the outfitter options pane.

3) Click on the settings next to your new outfit and under automation create a new script and copy/paste the code above into the source window.

4) Enjoy bonus experience when turning in quests!

-- $EVENTS QUEST_PROGRESS QUEST_FINISHED
-- $DESC Equips your BoA Exp bonus items for completing quests

if event == "QUEST_PROGRESS" then
    equip = true      
elseif event == "QUEST_FINISHED" then
    equip = false
end

With how easy JP is to acquire, i don't understand why you wouldn't just buy some JP gear.

mawd cleanup or not, i still think this "guide" is kindof useless. personal opionion.

Your last "opinion" got deleted so keep them to yourself unless you've got anything good to say.

It's easier to farm 4000+ JP for shoulders and chest, perhaps 7,500+ JP if you include weapons, and then add another 2,700g for cloak and head rather than to simply make a macro or use the equipment manager?
