Last Minute 3.0.8 Moneymaking Prediction

by Trouble on January 20, 2010 under Patches

With the removal of the Titanguard enchant, the best survival enchant is now Mongoose (so I’ve been told). Outlands enchanting materials are relatively cheap, but that’s because there’s no demand for them. The supply is extremely limited for obvious reasons. If you can get ‘em cheap, buy Void Crystals, Large Prismatic Shards, Arcane Dust, and Greater Planar Essence. This is by no means a guaranteed deal, but if it turns out to be a big profit then I sure as hell am going to gloat over it.


Making Gold off the 3.0.8 Patch

by Trouble on December 24, 2009 under Patches

One of the easiest ways to make gold in World of Warcraft is to get a good read on upcoming patch changes and planning accordingly. There’s usually some change or another that will cause a change in the price of goods and if you pick up on this you can stock up and make a killing. Fortunately for you, I’ve put together a quick list of some probable moneymakers for the coming patch:

  • Ink of the Sea - A conversion is being added allowing you to trade 10 Ink of the Sea for 1 Snowfall Ink. Right now there is a glut of Ink of the Sea on the market due to people trying to make Snowfall Ink for Darkmoon Cards. If you can get stacks of ink for 40g or less I recommend buying all you can get.
  • Eternal Life - The limiting factor on Darkmoon Cards is Snowfall Ink currently. With the conversion being added there will be more available making the limiting factor Eternal Life. If you can get Lifes for 30g or less I recommend buying them.
  • Dream Shard - The materials used for some higher end enchants are being changed to use more shards. Blizzard said that they don’t like how cheap shards are now and want them to be in higher demand. If you can get shards for under 10g I recommend stocking up.

UPDATE:

Thanks to Nikitabanana for a heads up on the new recipe for Icy Prism. This would indicate. The recipe has a cooldown so its financial impact may be minimal, but I’d expect demand for Frozen Orbs to go up a little and supply of rare quality gems to also go up a little (and prices to go down).

I’ll update this post with more if more changes are found.
