Getting Geared!

...or ‘twinked’ as the case may be. Meaning having the best stuff you can get for your level. This has the most impact in battlegrounds, where it seems that most hordies are twinked while Alliance types are not.

The first step is starting early. If you want to be twinked out for level 19 BGs, start gathering your stuff at level 15. This will mean tapping one your friendly higher-level guildmates to walk you through a few instances. You will be gaining experience and you want a nice XP cushion in case you don’t get the drop you want in the first go-around. My rogue, Serata, learned this the hard way. She ALMOST made it to the end of Deadmines for VanCLeef’s head (thanks, Dertus!) when the WoW server went down! So she had to do it again (thanks, Talyra!), but she got so many XPs on the two runs that handing in VanCeef’s head to get the Tunic of Westfall she desperately wants will put her at level 20. Erg!
