Branwyn's guide to RP items

Greetings fellow RPers. As I've spent the last couple of weeks hunting down items that would help me RP I've decided to write up a little post and hopefully help people looking to acquire similar items should they desire to do so.


Introduction
*****************************************
My search for RP items stared a while back when I was deciding the fate of Branwyn. I was looking for a hat that would fit the outfit I've chosen for her. For this specific reason I had installed Wow model viewer, an application supposedly able to show you all the items in the game. ( I've later discovered this not to be completely true )

If you feel such "window shopping" as being cheating than don't do it, otherwise it's a great tool for dressing up your character for RP.

I realize that the list below is far from complete or being faction balanced for that matter. So please feel free to contribute.

Kind regards,


Branwyn.



How to RP item hunt
*****************************************
Rule of thumb? Control - click all equiptable quest rewards. I've found myself regretting choosing items that sell well over something I've later found to be a great looking RP items on many occasions. One such item is the [Hooded Cowl] from Tarren Mill.

Especially follow the above rule with gray items. Most people don't bother with them as they sell for nothing, but I've found that some of them are perfect RP items.


Outfits
*****************************************
This is where anything goes and as far as I consider myself to be a typical girl here, it's really not a subject I would like to get into too specifically. Maybe a word or two about shirts. A very good way to get a nice collection of them is to create a character of each class that you can, run to the closest mailbox and send yourself the starter outfit before deleting the character. Short of being lucky with the AH there is no other way to obtain the start-up wardrobe.

Additionally, I've found that there are shirts in game that are not listed when browsing the wow model viewer. Such would be the Sleeveless T shirt.

You can find some examples of what I like to wear bellow.

Main hand
*****************************************
[6] Farmers broom - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=3335
[7] Farmer's shovel - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=3334
[12] Broken Wine Bottle - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=6651
[21] Cookie's tenderizer - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=5197
[25] Pitchfork - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=1485
[36] Last years mutton - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19292
[45] Fish - Rockhide Strongfish - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19808
[56] Last months mutton - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19293
Minning pick - Sold

There are a ton of nice items to help you RP for main hand. I've listed some that are relatively easy to acquire and quite unique. While I was grinding for the farmers shovel I was pretending to be a fisherman's wife gone mental over farming poluting the costal water. So I slapped them all with a fish in mainhand and a fish in offhand for an hour. Note that there is level 30-ish mainhand fish mace too.



There is two handed magical torch you get from quest in searing gorge. Looks like lv 49 blue staff except that it in fact does iluminate area in dark (you can even see gren ligth effect in the floor in normal ligth conditions). - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=10515

Rogues
*******************************
As per suggested bellow when completing a level 52 quest The Azure Key take the Ebon Mask http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19984 as it is the only black mask available till level 60.

For rogues - if you are not level 52, you might want to get one of those Defias masks.
http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?witem=7997&locale=enUS;source=live
It's a quite all right drop rate from random Defias in Westfall, or in the Deadmines, if you are high enough. Although be aware, that it's red. Contributed by: Thygore

Chest
*******************************
Contributed by: Thygore
I've cursed a million times for selling a (imho) nice vest, that can be quested.
This vest is called: Banshee Armor
http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?witem=5420&locale=enUS;source=live
It's for Horde, you get it from The Demon Seed
