Gringott is now toting a shiny new Nesingwary 4000 thanks to our guild engineer Papy and the awesome folks in Primal.
I've been drooling to have one of these ever since I found out it existed, but after reaching 80 and going through the process of gemming and enchanting a steady stream of upgrades, couldn't put together the coin to drop 3 or 4 thousand gold on the Auction House to buy one. So when I found out Papy had the pattern, I saw my chance to get one for just the cost of materials.
Of course, titanium is running 70 and 80 gold per bar on our server, so I asked in guild chat if anyone had some to spare thinking they'd cut me a decent guild discount. But as soon as people found out what I wanted the material for, I found them volunteering all sorts of things. Which lead to me feeling like a bit of a beggar as I asked about and accepted items from guildies and the guild bank. But I saw people happy to give, and stoked for me at the idea of the upgrade and the chance to increase our raid DPS. In the end I bought or farmed less than half the materials.
Needless to say I am grateful and humbled, reassured in the fact that I am in the best guild that I have ever known. I'll be farming a whole mess of leather over the coming weeks, to pay it forward by helping guildies level up their professions.
