With the 1.10 patch two new craftable bag types will be available specifically for holding items related to either herbalism or enchanting. Tailors will be able to try their hand at crafting these new bags as the recipes will be found throughout the world. These new specialty bags will function similar to how a normal bag would, but with the restriction of holding only herbs or enchanting supplies. The recipes will be made available for crafting these bags in various sizes, the high end of each type being 24 slots. - Drysc
Hopefully this new change being implemented will make things vastly easier for everyone in the Warcraft World, and will make way for new “Proffession bags” to be created by Blizzard!
“Inventory is full.”
No other message brings a faster end to a quest chain run or a profitable instance crawl than this one… well, except for a server shutdown message. This guide is all about increasing your inventory space. Are there simple quests for decent bags? How difficult is it to tailor your own bags? What are soul bags, quivers, and shot pouches?
At no time during the game will you feel the need for a bag moreso than in the first 10 levels, especially if you don’t get some high-level help with coin or bags. If you lack a sugar daddy (or mommy), no worries; just remember to sell off unneeded items every time you’re near a vendor and you’ll be fine. Really, all bags do is extend your time in the field and, until you leave the “newbie garden,” this really shouldn’t be an issue.
You start with a 16-slot bag, and if by level 7 you haven’t looted two more 6-slot bags, I’d be very surprised. Crank out those quests, kill mobs while in transit, and before long you’ll have some serious transit space. As you finish out the series of quests in the newbie zone, you’ll likely be asked to travel into a mine or cavern of some sort. This area represents the first true challenge to your container space, so be sure to empty out your bags before you dive in.
Here’s everything you need to know about bags and containers from TenTonHammer.com.

As an enchanter, I’ve had the odd mis-click, especially when disenchanting a lot of items at once. Despite a confirmation box when replacing enchants, there isn’t one when disenchanting goods, which can be a source of immense frustration. Some players have reported getting accidentally DEd items back after petitioning GMs, but it’s much better if you can avoid all that in the first place.
That’s where this addon comes in — Safe Disenchanter lets you set a rarity threshold and will then ask you to confirm any disenchants above that level. Fantastic.
If you’re in the disenchanting business, you’ve probably already got Enchantrix, Disenchant Predictor (which I don’t have) or something similar — but if not, they’re also must-haves when wondering whether to DE or sell an item.

MapWoW is a nifty site which uses the
Google Maps API to let you zoom and pan from Ashenvale to Zul’Gurub. While maps of WoW aren’t rare, the depth of this one seems to have taken the Internet by storm, with sites from Slashdot to Fark covering it. I like the in-game maps, especially with the CT Mod addon that allows you to make notes and use coordinates. However, this is a great alternative if you are looking for that special herb or mining deposit!
In a how-to blurb from their site:
The map utilizes the Google Maps API and therefore behaves just a like a Google Map. Clicking on the controls on the left side of the map will let you zoom in and out. Dragging the map around lets you scroll the map and view different areas. It’s that easy.
Use the menu to the right of the map to select resources and labels that you wish to display. Currently you can display herbs, ore, treasure, zone names, and city names. There are over 15,000 data points covering 69 resources with their exact map location in our database. The bottom of the menu provides quick links to popular locations in the game.

Maybe you thought the “Cooking” and “Fishing” professions in World of Warcraft are gimp, too complex, too time-consuming, too boring, or too expensive to get into. Not so. At least, not anymore.
We have some secrets to share with you, secrets that will catapult your skills from 1 to 150 in both the Cooking and Fishing professions for a handful of silver, and in less time than it takes to watch another late-night “B” movie. It’s not an exploit, it won’t get you banned. It’s just a taste of the old-school MMO “grind smarter, not harder” approach.
Two hours, no gold, 300 skill points. Check out Ten Ton Hammer’s Two Hours to 150: Cooking & Fishing guide.

TenTonHammer has a new guide that looks at the profession of Alchemy. It comes complete with a full listing of Alchemy recipes showing what you need to make them from and what they do.
Being an Alchemist allows you to create powerful potions that will help you and your friends in the World of Warcraft. From the common healing and mana potions to the high end flasks available only to alchemist masters there is always something useful to create. Alchemy also allows you to transmute many items from one thing to another, this includes iron to gold and elemental essences form one type to another.
You can check out the complete guide here.

Eyeonix mentions this on the WoW Forums:
While we don’t have any current plans to lower the cooldown for creating Mooncloth, highly skilled tailors should be pleased to hear that the Mooncloth bag will only require a single Mooncloth to craft come patch version 1.10.
I’m still not sure if this is worth the price of the mats vs. ROI regardless of the change.
