After going through and rating each profession on a scale form 1 to 10 last week, this week I go through and rate each on of the profession buildings on a scale from 1 to 10 in terms of how useful they are for a toon without the corresponding profession.  As you'll recall, we can make 3 small garrison buildings, but each toon can only have two professions.  So if you're wondering which third small building to take to maximize your goldmaking potential, then you've come to the right place!Enjoy!

As promised, and only slightly late, I hop back on the mic tonight to bring you an overview of each primary profession in terms of its goldmaking viability in Warlords of Draenor.  Episodes 22 through 26 covered the details, and Episode 27 delivers the punchline.  Tonight I talk through the latest changes on Beta, and rank each profession on an easy 1-10 scale from garbage to goldmaking heaven.  And be sure to catch the podcast again next week, as I talk about which third buildings are looking good for extra gold.Enjoy!

In this episode, I wrap up the remaining professions we've yet to preview in Warlords of Draenor.  I go through the bones and details of Jewelcrafting, Enchanting, and Inscription.  With prospecting gone, new Mysterious Fortune Cards, Darkmoon Cards available to non-scribes, and a new twist on enchanting, there's some information you're gonna want to listen in for.  In case you've missed any of the earlier WoD Profession Preview Series episodes, be sure to head back to episode 22 and give a listen through all the way back to here at episode 26.Enjoy!

In this episode, I continue onward with the Late Nite With Stede WoD Profession Preview Series as I walk you through all the coming changes to both Alchemy & Engineering.  Alchemy is setup to make a big shift towards a more interesting market, and Engineering finally gets a little extra love.  SO make sure you give it a listen and get equipped for the coming changes to professions in Warlords of Draenor!  Enjoy, and be sure to catch the next episode where the LNWS WoD Profession Preview Series wraps up with Jewelcrafting, Enchanting, and Inscription.Enjoy!

This week I roll on from Blacksmithing straight into Leatherworking & Tailoring to give you more in my series on professions in Warlords of Draenor.  I walk through what each profession can make, and how they interact with your Garrison.  I also tour the reagent costs for epic gear and the currency costs for their recipes.  So, if you want to make some cloth or leather gear in Warlords, but aren't entirely sure how it all works, you are in the right place.  Enjoy, and make sure to check back again soon for the next episode!

As I was going through my handwritten notes, my beer knocked over and spill all over everything I had written down on Blacksmithing.  But I was unfazed!  This week's episode recaps a few extra thoughts on Skinning from last week, give a quick refresher on Garrisons, and then continues the series on professions in Warlords of Draenor as I do a deep dive into the details of Blacksmithing - including cooldowns, reagents, crafts, and how it works with your Garrison - so pop a top and have a listen! :)

The show returns after a 6 month hiatus to bring you the goldmaking news as we get ready for Warlords of Draenor in just 2 months.
