Yes, Blizzard put Farmville into MoP. You get 'your' plots of land and merchants sell seeds, your crops mature daily. At level 90 and revered status with Tillers, you can have 16 plots of land. Planting Songbell Seed will get you Motes of Harmony (1 per plot), giving you 1.6 Spirits of Harmony a day.<br /><br />Is it great? No, but I would have loved to have the ability to get 1.6 Chaos Orbs daily without raiding.tweellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164718561825615886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454650400712521073.post-24027196490592026762012-09-05T16:53:38.033+10:002012-09-05T16:53:38.033+10:00I discovered your blog about 2 weeks ago and was r...I discovered your blog about 2 weeks ago and was reading it every day leading up to the launch.

The market was always volatile and profits were all over the place.<br /><br />I actually stopped making them and focused more on PvP gear which yielded far better results during Cata.Austackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493769923008730138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454650400712521073.post-91445901738115229192012-08-30T09:02:43.130+10:002012-08-30T09:02:43.130+10:00PvP is pretty horrible at the moment if you're...PvP is pretty horrible at the moment if you're not a healer with the DPS nerf, but at least you can try out rotations and test new abilities.<br /><br />That said, I play as a ret pally on my main and I can't be any happier with the updates to our class & spec.
