Infernal Vengeance

This primarily for Raiph since he was asking about it, but there may be others out there who've been stupid enough to pick LWing as a profession. I did ... it hurts to lvl.

350-355
For those with Scryers rep - Honoured:
Enchanted Felscale Gloves or Boots (4 x Heavy Knothide Leather, 10 x Fel Scales, 6 x Primal Mana) x 5

For those with The Consortium rep - Honored
Fel Leather Boots (10 x Heavy Knothide Leather, 8 x Fel Hide, 8 x Primal Shadow, 3 x Rune Thread) x 5

355-365
You need to be Friendly with Cenarion Expedition for the next part:
Heavy Clefthoof Boots (4 x Heavy Knothide Leather, 20 x Thick Clefthoof Leather, 4 x Primal Earth, 2 x Rune Thread) x 10

N.B. these last 10 points are going to cost you a LOT! (as if the last 15 didn't cost enough!) The materials required are fairly insane and so is the rep requirement, but at the moment I don't see a better way of levelling up.

This will do your head in, you'll kill more fuggen clefthoofs than you can imagine.

365-370
If your Exalted with Thrallmar or Honor Hold, then make:
Nethercobra Leg Armor (4 x Heavy Knothide Leather, 4 x Cobra Scales, 8 x Primal Air, 1 x Primal Nether) x 5
N.B. The Cobra Scales and Primal Nether are a major pain to get and I would seriously urge you to work on Sha'tar rep and do the following:

Alternatively, if your exalted with The Sha'tar:
Drums of Battle (2 Heavy Knothide Leather, 1 x Primal Fire, 1 Primal Earth) x 5

N.B. any of the above three will take you to 375, but the material requirement makes for a LOT of farming, as those last 5 points can mean making another 20-30 items.

370-375
Your either going to have to make random world drop epics here with lots of insane material requirements OR go and get exalted with Keepers of Time.
Seeing as the epics are random world drop patterns, I'll go with Keepers of Time rep rewards. You'll need to be level 66 to start your Keepers of Time rep and spend a LOT of time in The Caverns of Time.

Drums of Panic (2 x Heavy Knothide Leather, 2 x Primal Shadow) x 5

Thats the guide i used to max it out. The mats are crazy. You be farming like a man possessed to get them all but theres a few shortcuts you need for the last few points from 365 to 375.

No.1 Exalted with Sha'tar
This give you the pattern for Drums of War (365 - 370).
The mats for making this are FAR less than the others at your disposal at that point. Additionally running the tempest instances is not too bad, there are 3 of them, try a few in heroic farm badges etc once reverred and you can kill multiple birds with one stone. Hunters at least are wanted in parties, i had an boomkin and everyone is like wtf why are you not a tank or healer ... blah blah ... they shut up once we got in and i'd nail them on the dmg meter ... but i digress.

No.2 Exalted with Keepers of Time
This will give you the pattern Drums of Panic (370-375)
Now this sucks a big one or at least did when i was doing it as heroic Durn and BM had not been nerfed yet. Now that they are "doable" you could farm the badges on heroic in here too whicle you get the rep.

Those 2 faction reps seem excessive but realistically the difference in mats required at that lvl is immense. Besides badges are good.

My suggesting is farm all the mats. While your sanity will be tested, you'll make a fortune from the trash items you get while farming and will essentially have an epic mount waiting for you when your done.

Thanks, I just had a quick skim. I'm going to print this off and use it like a bible ;)
