cata herbing and mining?Follow

since we're headed to azeroth once more and we're going up the skill points and levels again. I imagine that we'll encounter new herbs and mining. [this goes without sayig].

But its old azeroth right?

well sure the new areas will have 80-85 herbs and mining nodes, but what about old areas that are becoming top level?

i imagine since things go splodey. massive amounts of ore from deep inside the earth is revealed as well as material from the elemental plane of earth being thrown into ours. That and blizz mentioned that the elemental plane's are starting to converge upon our own. i'am sure new herbs/metal ores/gems will be made available for enterprising individuals as well as old herbs/ore's imbued by whatever energies are thrown into the atmosphere/lands around when nelly shoots out of the ground.

It will be pretty annoying to have to run past fields of peacebloom to find that one that will give a skillup.

I dont think thats going to happen. Theres currently low level areas that will be high level soon. Like the south of barrens. Those will only have imbued/mutated herbs/ores [or new herbs/ore's revealed by the merging elemental planes/nelly's splosion]

whats been happening to unguro?

oh and i have noticed odd quakes in old azeroth happen every so often. [maybe its my imagination, has anyone noticed these?]
