Drop Rates, Gold, and other questions

[Sprink117]

They didn’t post a gold modifier, which makes me think it’ll be a standard 1x rate for the server. Same for drops and professions. Did they mention any boosts on those that I missed?

If it’s 1x, how are we going to get our skills up to date as we level at 7x? I’ve never been able to keep up on Icecrown while leveling.

They mentioned it matching Lordaeron’s raid and dungeon difficulty. Is that significantly different from Icecrown?

Not sure about the last question, but as for the first bit - they said it would be a Icecrown-like server with Lordaeron difficulty raids. To me this means;
x7 xp
x3 professions
x3 rep
x3 gold.

I think those are the rates on Icecrown.

Edit: I see now they specifically said experience will be x7 Icecrown-like. I guess we'll have to see. I'd assume the rest is Icecrown-like as well, though.
