Subject: exactly 1hr to play WoW, what to do?
   So i have an hour here and there in the evening free to play WoW, what do i do?

Tradeskills are maxed out.
2nd professions are maxed out ie cooking, fishing.
Not enough time for an instance.
BG's aren't up or queue is 30+ min.
Do not want to play an Alt.

Is there anything fun to do? Grinding cash on a paladin isn't exactly entertaining (ie: autoattack).

I love PvP, but BG's make it hard to get in and play in the hour, i need help with idea's! What would you do?

And by any off chance blue reads this thread, is there anything being added? I think the Fair sounds like a good idea, and could provide content to do with an hour of free time, but we'll see..

   I'm not sure what your professions are but I find that with my characters small bits of time allow me to at least get started in seeking out materials which I use for my crafts. Whether this be something small like ingredients to make potions, or specialty items used to create blue or epic armor patterns.

Also, when I have a very limited amount of time to play, I often spend it in the Auction House looking for good deals on a variety of items. All in all I feel that my time is better spent when I've invested some thought before logging into the game as to both my short and long-term goals.

Q u o t e:
and spending time to 'think' b4 playing is supposed to be casual gaming?


I enjoy thinking about the game, and often talk about it with my co-workers and friends. I don't think that investing some thought into my characters and creating fun little goals to accomplish is indicative that the game isn't casual. I'm sorry you feel that thinking is demanding enough that it complicates a matter into becoming less than casual.

Q u o t e:
you missed the part that the guy said his skills are maxed?


No, I didn't.


Q u o t e:
guy after maxing out your skill and being lvl 60 the only time you make anything is for a guildy or consumables for yourself thats it . and how many of those made eq are actually used? two?


You're playing the game differently than myself, or anyone I game with so perhaps my suggestions wouldn't suit you.


Q u o t e:
guy if you have only two hours to play a day i dont know about you but i dont want to spend half of that "thinking" about what im going to do with it in game.


Which is why I indicated that the thought should take place before logging into the game, so you can optimize what you're doing with your time. Most people that play a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing game enjoy making goals for themselves, and I one of those people. If you're not, then again my suggestions probably won't serve much purpose for you.


Q u o t e:
thats right you spend your money on a MMO to browse the auction house.. .yes baby thats what i called blizz at its best!


The Auction House is part of the game, and some enjoy it more than others. You're free to disagree here but please don't twist my statement into indicating that's the only thing I value doing when I play.


Q u o t e:
I find this somewhat funny. Blizzard's official stance on casual gamers is that they should browse the AH.


As stated, that's one of the things I do when I have limited time to play, not an official company stance on an issue. The original poster asked for advice on what to do in the game when time is limited and I provided it as a player of this game.


Q u o t e:
Eyonix your a wonderful little person



Okay, so I made that one up...
