I am running a combo of Klovnene's Grinding Profiles and Kickazz006's modified questing ones on several accounts right now.. For bloodsail I have found that the profile by FrancoFun worked the smoothest for me. I don't really understand what the difference is between all the bloodsail profiles, but Franco's got stuck the least and I was able to afk or stay alt tabbed nearly the entire time. As for lockboxes, I found that Fpsware's Rogue CC didn't have smooth logic for pick pocketing / sub spec, so after doing some research it seems that Shadowstrike CC is the way to go. You cant get it on the honorbuddy forums due to some lame drama between coders or something... so in order to get that you have to go to
LiquidSkies, register and then dl it (click the honorbuddy tab near the top to find it). So far I like it better that fpsware's, for pickpocketing at least.
On wowhead and a few other forums it seems the most common method for normal people who actually farm this themselves is to run LBRS or Scholo. How hard would it be to make something that stealthed through pickpocketing everything, then zones out and resets the instance and goes again? Also, Kickazz, I noticed on your trunk there are Junkbox profiles for BRD and Burning steppes.. I'm currently using your modified version of Klovnene's. I was wondering how the other two compared in boxes/hour...
I also found it insanely helpful to remove a bunch of crap from protected items list and add in a fake vendor into the profiles for steamwheedle cartel so that I could use DHX Mount Vendors to save myself time. I loot the mobs to help them respawn quicker. I also added "<SellGrey>True</SellGrey> <SellWhite>True</SellWhite> <SellGreen>True</SellGreen> <MinFreeBagSlots>2</MinFreeBagSlots>" which has really improved how long I can leave the bot running before checking out it. Every 8-12 Hours I have to dump off around 50 stacks of mageweave, but other than that, when my bags fill up DHX just mounts me up and sells off all the greys / low level food / random useless items.
For the people who don't care about keeping their bloodsail rep at honored (no longer required to maintain the rep to complete achiev). Outside every goblin city there is a NPC with a repeatable cloth turn-in quest that will allow you to get from Hated to Neutral (huge help). For Example, The quest "War at Sea" (
War at Sea - Quest - World of Warcraft) in Tanaris, requires 40 Mageweave cloth and 4 Strong Flux, but gives you 500 Gadgetzan rep and decreases your Bloodsail rep by 500. It would be awesome to have a profile that farms and takes breaks every few hours to go turn in all the cloth you have gotten. I think each zone drops the corresponding cloth for their NPC.
While turning in lockboxes, keep in mind that if you have the
