Teremus is a weak boss dragon, it only takes 4-5 people to kill him. He has been done by 2 people before, but they were fully decked in epic gear. I have just done him for the first time today with 4 other people 5 total) and although the battle is long, he is relatively easy and simple. He drops an item: http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?witem=8244, sometimes up to 4 from a single kill. Then you take that item, and turn it in to: http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/mob.html?wmob=7363. He will give you a bag, and inside the bag is a random lvl 40-49 Blue or Epic BoE. That's right, a BoE, so you can sell it on the AH. Today, I got 2 crystals, so I turned both of them in and received 2 Blue BoEs, worth about 50g on my server. Like I said, they are random BoEs, so it is possible to get a weapon that would be worth much more gold, or even an epic weapon that will be worth a LOT more.

Now to explain the battle itself. You definitely need a Warrior for this battle, and I will explain why later. Teremus is immune to Silence, Stuns, Battle Shouts, DoT spells (that's right! No DoTs), some Mage spells, and I would suppose Poisons too. The only think I (the lvl 60 Warrior) was able to use on Teremus was Taunt and Sunder Armor. This battle is very long because of the fact that you can not use DoTs on him for extra DPS. In addition, every time he uses his flame attack, everyone who gets damaged by it heals Teremus, so stay out of the way of the Flame Breath! The healing he gets from this attack is substancial comparing it to the DPS you are able to use on him. Every 30 seconds or so, he will use a Knockback attack on the Warrior and his aggro list will reset, and will probably attack the nearest Mage or Warlock. Whoever gets aggro is to run towards the Tank, so he/she can use Taunt and Sunder Armor to regain aggro. After that, you just follow through the motions and whittle him down.

Suggested Group: Warrior, Mage, Hunter, Priest/Druid, Shaman/Paladin.
The reason for the supporting healer class (Paladin/Shaman) is because this battle is very long. Your Main Healer will probably run out of mana, so you need a supporting healer to step up while the Main Healer gets some mana back.

Teremus respawns daily, so you can redo him over and over for some nice loot.

I hope you all enjoy this strategy. This is my first posted strategy, so comments/questions are appreciated.

In light of some completely useless threads on money making, I thought I'd consolidate the majority of my knowledge when it comes to turning coin. This guide will take you from level 1 to level 40 and if you use these strats you WILL have your mount paid for by 40 and you WILL have top notch gear plus all your spells. The profit margin on these are great and in a few cases HUGE, you just have to invest the time it takes to get the items. That being said, let's get started…..

level 1-15:

Darian Singh in Mage Quarter SW
Sells: blue fireworks schematic
Purchase: 18s
AH price: 1-2g

Soolie Berryfizz in Tinker Town, IF
Sells: Free Action Potion recipe
Purchase: 18s
AH price: 3-4g

level 15-20:

Wenna Silkbeard in Sundown Marsh, Wetlands
Sells: Green Leather Armor and Red Whelp Gloves patterns
Price: 20s
AH price: 1g (each)

Frad Swiftgear in Sundown Marsh, Wetlands

level 30-40

AH Price: Belt sells for 4-5g and gloves sell for 3-4g

Pearl diving in Vile Reef
Purchase price: None** (time investment only)
AH price: 4g per stack of 9 pearls
This strat takes a little more then just putting them on the AH. Follow my guide found here:
http://www.multiplayerstrategies.com/ms/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=30408&categoryid=20

These are very easy ways to make money but by no means are they the only way to do it. There are a few others I'm not quite ready to give up just yet since all my other strats get wrecked after I post them (only problem being on the official MPS server). If you just look around, you'll see all kinds of ways to make money with very little effort. Once I get deeper in the 40s and into the 50s I'll post additional guides for higher level money makers as I find them. I think you'll find these will get you by even to 60 if you keep with them.

GOOD LUCK!!!

The class
The paladin is the ultimate support class; they can buff, dispel and heal and are extremely mana-efficient. On top of this they have seals and judgments, that adds more utility to them. They also have their infamous bubbles, which can save your bacon or make you able to do that quest in a hot landing zone. In short, paladins are hard to kill and good to have on your team. Downside is their lack of (burst)-DPS.

Leveling methods
Paladins have a DPS problem compared to other classes. They have the lowest DPS in the game, so questing is the best way to go about leveling your paladin. You can grind, just not for XP (since doing quest yield so much more XP). Grinding can be done, but even then you are better off duoing with some DPS.

Whichever you choose, I highly suggest doing nothing but instances from 58-60 to gear up and get all your key quests done. Not doing so, means missing out on a huge amount of XP.

The traditional ways are:

Grinding:
Not much to say about this. You kill mobs, they give XP, you lvl. If you don't have a comprehensive knowledge of where quests take you and which order is best, grinding is pretty fast for leveling.
It can be pretty boring, but listening to music or being on Vent/TS helps a lot. Get a rhytm going and stay in it. Take breaks when you mana up to not go completely blind

The following is pretty good list of where to grind which mobs. It is however from a horde perspective and you need to scroll down a bit to get to the guide If you read the whole bit, there are some suggestions for alternatives, which work just as well…if not better.
http://www.mpsgames.com/ms/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=31653&categoryid=20&forumid=63

And the following lists some nice alliance spots for grinding. Also are some suggestions on questing.
http://www.wow-pro.com/Knowledge_Base/op=show/kid=515.html

Questing:
If you know your way around the world, this is the fastest way to level up. This is also known as gresting to some. Decent horde guides are few and far between (there are some on this site), alliance have it a lot better.

horde - if you are horde, use Joana's guide. That will take you from 1-60 in 5 days /played. It's written from a hunter perspective, so my suggestion is staggering your progress in the guide by a lvl or two. Other than that, there are some (admittedly with holes in them) guides here in the strat section. An idea is to try and modify the following alliance guide.
http://forums.blizzhackers.com/viewtopic.php?t=309717 is the text guide (thanks Bay_Cassius
http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=wow+world+of+warcraft+levels are links to all the videos (thanks sQren)

alliance - if you are alliance, you got it made! The following guide will quickly and easily take you from 30-60. Reason it's 30, is because of the quests pre that are in and around the starter areas, so just level quickly to 30 and you are set.

Talent specs
First of all, you need to figure out how you are gonna level up? Do you prefer to solo all the way, solo 90% of the time or solo 10% of the time and do instances 90% of the time? If you plan on going solo most of the time, there is no need to go heavy in holy and the other way around if you plan on doing instances.

The following spec is a 90% solo spec. It focuses on improving your melee damage with 2Hers (for SOC), while also allowing you to heal yourself reliably in a tight spot. With concentration aura on, you have uninterruptable heals and your Aura of devotion gives 20% more armour, since you won't be using shields. If you prefer shields, go with redoubt and shield specialization instead of imp. devo aura.

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=axxuZxGz0hZVoet0c

The following build is if you plan on doing instances, where you will probably be expected to heal. It's very holy heavy (35 pts), but with 16 points in Ret, you can still swing some hurt. This is the build I am using on my paladin atm.

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=sExh0gstZV0xt

This is also the build that works well until you start raiding seriously, at which point you should switch to the last spec.
This last spec is focused on support and not on DPS….at all. Surprisingly, it's less holy-heavy, but that is because of losing divine strength. It uses protection mostly for BOK and guardian's favour.

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=aVxhbgstVMtc0h

Gear
Again, your gear choices depend on your chosen leveling style…or your wallet. I carry two sets of gear on my pally; one for soloing/DPS'ing and one for healing. For solo/DPS play you should go for STR or AP, since you will do controlled pulls (and have bubbles) or you won't be hit much (in a group). For heal-bot duty, go for INT and don't be afraid to throw in leather, chain and cloth (you'll still have higher armour than a priest).

Mana-efficiency…and gear
Paladins have the most mana-efficient heal in the game and it's on a 1.5 sec cast too boot. Flash of light (FOL) makes you able to continually throw out small heals, so do this when you heal. Because you are casting all the tim, and you don't have any talents to allow you to benefit from SPI, you need to go about your gear a bit different from a priest.

http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-paladin&t=932370&p=1&tmp=1#post932370 has a brilliant discussion on gear, which I will summarize below.

The starting raiding healadin, should go for INT to boost his mana-pool to the max. Once you start raiding and get access to better gear (lvl 60 blues and up), you should start to consider mana per 5 secs (MP5) and +heal. With enough MP5, you can virtually cast forever and with +heal you can cast even longer. Once you get enough +heal you can start to drop down in ranks of FOL and when you get short on mana, switch to lower ranks of longer casting heals, since they take more advantage of +heal and allows MP5 more time to work.

Conclusion
Paladin is a fun class to play, if you don't mind supporting. If you want to be a tankadin, or a casting DPS-adin or a ret-noob, prepare to be met with some sceptical glances and don't be too bent on doing it your way, since people have a tendency to type-cast…..besides, you have the most mana-efficient heal in the game, so use it!

I know paladins are a popular class, so there will probably be differing opinions on my layout of the class. This is my take on the class, but feel free to chime in below and I'll add the good stuff up top.

I've just finished a new character to 60, a Rogue, and i chose to go through the game only doing instance quests and the ones at the start to get to lvl 12 or so, and i grinded every single bit of XP apart from that to reach 60, and in this process i have found so many great grinding spots and money spots i couldn't believe it and ended up reaching lvl 60 with 1100g and all my items up to date, and since these kinda posts have dried up on the site a bit i thought i would make one. So I'll try and remember all of them that i can, if i forget any and remember ill post em up later, enjoy.

Money / Xp Grinding Spots ::

Salt Flats - 7 / 10
If you are lvl 30 - 36 you can goto the salt flats, i would recommend a bit higher then lvl 30 if you want to grind but, because you will have to rest after every fight and cant grind very efficiently, i went at lvl 32. The Salt flats have a wide range of beats including Turtles, Basilisks, Vultures and Scorpions. These mobs are all good for xp, as they are around the lvl range i said before, but they drop heaps of random bits and pieces, like shells, wings, bones, scales, claws etc. These parts all stack in lots of 5 or 10, and there are loads of them down there so you can build up a fair bit quite quickly, and this stuff really adds up when u go to sell it at a vendor, i had no trouble making up around 10g after a few hours, and heaps of xp to. 10g might not sound much to higher lvls but makes mount money a lot faster to get.

Tanaris Turtles - 8 / 10
All along the coastline from a little north of Steemwhindle Port, or however you spell it, to up near Lost Rigger Cove, there are turtles called Snapjaws, which range in lvl from 42 - 45 from memory and are a Neutral Mob until you attack them, which makes grinding them that much easier when there is no aggro to worry about. These Turtles are great, as well as having great xp, they drop scales, and shell fragments which sell for a lot, a stack of 5 shell fragments is around 50s, and scales sell for a couple of silver each also i think. On top of this they drop Big - Mouth Clams, which can contain Black, Iredescent and Small Lusterous Pearls, which also sell great on AH. I had no trouble making a lot of money on these guys, just watch out for the opposing faction handing in Quests at the NPC's around there, i got ganked a few times. But really these guys are great, if you are around that level give them a try, i made about 50g off them in the few lvls i was there, i got about 12 Green Items to.

Lost Rigger Cove - 9.9 / 10
What can i say, i absolutely love this place, its incredible to say the least. This cove is filled with lvl 44 - 46 humanoid pirates, and stacks of them. The Humanoids drop Silver, Mageweave Cloth, Common Grey Weapons that sell at a vendor for almost 1g each, Lockboxes and all sorts of Green / Blue and Epic Items. I grinded lvl 45 - 49 here, even at 49 when the xp was getting low, it was to good to leave. You get heaps of mageweave, which i sell on AH for 1g Per Stack, or you can vendor for 50s a stack. They drop lockboxes, the lockboxes contain random vendor junk, silver and sometimes map fragments, or a key. The map fragments are for a chest you can find on another beach in tanaris, once you have all 3 parts, this chest has minimum 3 green items, u can get blue items in it if your lucky. The Key that may drop, is for a chest in a pirate ship in the area, which also has a green item and possibly blue. But by far the best part about this area, there is always 2 Large Solid Chests that spawn around the area, and out of these chests i got so much stuff, Herbs, Food, Blue and Green Items, Truesilver, Mithril etc, just a whole lot of random stuff that you can sell for money. And as soon as you get both of them, about 5 minutes later they are spawning again somewhere else. Out of these chests, i personally got 21 Green and 3 Blue items during my grinding, not to mention the other stuff in them. Andre Firebeard, the named captain mob in the area, is for a quest, so once again just be on the lookout for ppl doing that quest, but i rarely saw a sole while i was grinding. I Made 600g from this area, I found 2 Epic Items while i was grinding there, a Perfectly Calibrated Boomstick and a Ring of Saviours, now this is a random world drop as you know, so there is no saying they will drop for you, but the amount of mobs you can kill down there in short time is huge as there are so many of them, and they respawn fairly quickly. The only reason i won't give this place 10, is because at some of the tents, where the chests spawn, there are sets of 2 pirates, and they are linked, and this can be a pain in the arse, cause if your not a rogue and cant sap one, or a mage and sheep one, then you gotta fight two of em. But they don’t have that much HP so it really isn't to hard. But i must insist you try this place, it is very, very good.

Dunemaul Ogres - 8 / 10
These guys are in 3 different area's of tanaris, the Dunemaul Compound and the East / West Moon Ruins. I must insist if you are going to grind them, go out to the ruins further north into tanaris, as the main compound it used for questing frequently and you will have problems. The reason these guys are good is a bit different to the others. The main advantage of them is that they are really easy to kill, they range in lvl from 45 - 49 so you can grind them for ages, i did until lvl 52 or so. The main drops are mageweave, common grey weapons and silver, i got 2 Blue and about 13 Greens there also though. They drop the cloth fairly often so you can build it up quite fast, and as i mentioned before you can make a fair bit of money with it, there is also constantly Purple Lotus spawning around the ruins for any herbalists that grind there, this stuff is worth money on AH. Not much else to say about em, they are just good.

I can't be bothered writing anymore ATM, but i will do more for lower level spot's and higher level ones soon and post a Part 2, there is lots more good information to come =), remember, this guide is from personal experience, i can't gaurantee the drops i got for anyone else but i can promise you they provide good chance and great grinding, enjoy. - Xilli

Ring of Iron will doesnt have +def, you must mean Ring of Defense, I've put it in.
Arena trinket needs at least lvl 35.

/script local i; CastShapeshiftForm(1); CastSpellByName("BloodRage"); CastSpellByName("Charge"); for i = 0,15 do if ( GetPlayerBuffTexture(i) == "Interface\Icons\Ability_Racial_BloodRage") then CancelPlayerBuff(i); end; end

What it does it makes you cast bloodrage, then it cancels bloodrage (now making you out of combat) and charges. YOU MUST SPAM IT though, like press it a lot of times quickly for it to go, not a problem though. One other thing it only of course works in pvp and not mobs, and if you are getting moonfire spammed it wont work because you only have a split second of being out of combat to charge, so basically anything else works.
