Flame-Scarred Junkbox Pickpocket Fun

Pickpocket

What do you think of when you see the image above?  Do you think of picking the pockets of all these nice densely populated nagas?  If you are looking for something new to do, then step outside the auction house on your rogue.  You never know when you may be questing and run across a beautiful location like this one I found along the Souther edge of The Shimmering Expanse, Vash'jir.  There are a ton of nagas packed tightly together with some even swimming towards you.  The dense packing of mobs along with clusters of nagas together, make this a great pickpocketting location for your rogue.

Flame-Scarred Junkbox

These nagas along with many other Cataclysm humanoids have a chance to award a Flame-Scarred Junkbox.  The Flame-Scarred Junkbox requires Lockpicking to open and has a chance for some really nice items to resell.  You have a chance to find Rogue's Draught, Inscription Materials to Sell on the AH, or blue Cataclsym gems.  If you get lucky you could find one of 3 Level 85 Epic Weapons.

The Twilight Blade

These 3 epic Level 85 required weapons are Bind-on-Equip so they can be resold on the auction house.  Anyone been lucky enought to find one of these weapons yet?  They are only obtainable from within the Flame-Scarred Junkboxes. 

Look for an area with a lot of mobs that are closely packed together.  This will help increase the efficiency of your pickpocketting.  Having a potion that increases swimming speed would be a great help, if underwater like in this location.  So if you are bored or looking for something new to try, then dust off that rogue and go Flame-Scarred Junkbox farming.  Maybe you will be lucky enough to find a nice epic weapon.

Do you have a great pickpocket location?

Selling Yourself And Other Pilgrim's Bounty Money Makers

Pilgrim's Bounty
The World of Warcraft in-game holiday event Pilgrim's Bounty is finally here.  While this isn't the most profitable holiday, with a little creativity you can squeeze some nice chunks of gold out of the right people.  Have you thought of selling yourself off? 

Rogue For Hire
The Pigrim's Bounty achievement Turkey Lurkey can be a real headache for players.  You have to find and shoot 8 rogues of various races with your Turkey Shooter.  These Turkey Shooters are a reward option from the daily quests.  The problem with the achievement is that some of the required races are not commonly created as rogue characters.  If you have a rogue then you can advertise that you will log in for a tip or a set price fee, which could allow someone the chance to complete their achievement.  Just like we sold wand zaps during Hallow's End, we can sell ourselves off this time to be shot and feathered into a turkey.  The 2 rarest forms of rogues are the Dwarf Rogues and Orc Rogues, followed by Undead Rogue.  If you have one of these you can probably find someone in trade chat who is offering to pay you to log in.  Take advantage of the easy gold.  I have charged up to 100g before to log in for someone.  You can also create a rogue for the same purpose as there isn't a level requirement for the character being shot.
