This week is going to be straight forward.   After receiving multiple questions in my email asking me how they should make money in a specific profession.   I am going to present to you five (sometimes more) things that you should be selling right now First the rules of the road. 1.   All recipes have to be obtained by either Training,  purchasing from a vendor or via reputation. 2.   No World drops or items that would require a larger than life grind to obtain (ala Fireland dailies...

Exploring Old Markets

Early in Cataclysm, Jewelcrafting was my primary (really only) focus for making gold. Part of the reason for this is my limited amount of time I was willing to invest in the process. Because I like to do lots of other things in the game, I wasn't willing to sit and prospect, craft rings, disenchant, create scroll and post them. The process that we call "the shuffle." Or sit and mill herbs, create inks, craft glyphs and get into nasty undercutting wars. I valued my time more than that. So... Read Full Story
Dealing with the mid sales blahs

Every sales goblin has it happen.   The normal routine of posting sales,  crafting items,  raking in gold becomes a low paying second job.    Waking up in the morning,   signing on and going through the routine that has netted you hundreds of thousands of gold.   Events such as Love is in the air or lunar festival become just another gold grab instead of enjoying the event.   The Swift Lovebird becomes another dollar sign instead of a majestic steed (yes,  I said majestic with a straight...

Love is in the air: By the numbers

With this years Lunar Festival and the introduction of the  [Festival Lantern]  and [Lunar Lantern],  a gold mine was introduced to the casual player. Almost all of the events previous,  the pets and mounts were BOP and non transferable or able to be sold.   The changes brought along a new commerce,  one that has it's own benefits and pitfalls. The lunar festival pets were straight forward.   Go to the different areas in Azeroth,  Outland,  Northrend and Cataclysm areas,  get 50... Read Full Story

As I was working on my Love is in the air dailies (yes,  looking for the big love rocket like everyone else) a couple of things popped up. With 4.3.2 it appears they lowered the requirements for the tokens to start the fireland dailies.  Originally it was 150 (which was the bulk of the amount you had to get to open up the good stuff).   It's now lowered to 20.  Easily opened in a day.   The rest of the faction requirements stayed at 150 but it does cut out a couple of days of...

Love is in the lunar faire

Published to World of Warcraft
his week starts the rare triple combo of holidays.  We're in the 2nd week of the lunar festival , today starts the Love is in the Air holiday,  and this week the Darkmoon Island is open for inspection. Should be a busy week for everyone.   Not a lot changed with the  Love is in the Air  event.   Only major change is that there is a mount available,  the  [Swift Lovebird]  for 270  [Love Tokens ].  This should spur continual sales during the event. Thankfully for the goblins in all of... Read Full Story
Just call me Patch Mommar

4.3.2 is supposed to be the last patch for cataclysm.   This is separating the idea of hot fixes that get rolled out when a major or minor issue comes to pass. As I was looking at the near calculus level of changes with class mechanics.  Two things struck me as being very important for the gold goblin in all of us. "Power of the Aspects Buff" -- see here This ends up being a mixed bag of good and bad.   Good because it will get more people raiding on the regular and heroic content... Read Full Story

If you've been auctioning for a long time, you've undoubtedly heard about (and been using) the addon Trade Skill Master . Well, sapu and the gang have recently released their first "release" version, officially moving out of Beta. With the release came an entirely new interface and design. Here are some of the cool new features, or old features that I'm just discovering with the new interface. For a more comprehensive video guide to TSM, you should check out Faid's post .

Liquid Assets

While looking at the Auction house.  One of the many tasks that the goblin auctioneer has is to pick up long term investments.   Speculation runs rampant on the boards both with JMTC and on Consortium boards on what to buy,  what to keep stored for the winter months of Mists of Panderia. Later on as we get closer I will start adding lists of what suggestions I have on purchasing for long term storage and sales.  But the biggest tip I can give is a very simple one.  Keep your assets liquid...

There is a mote in your eye... and more

Everytime I start a search for motes on the auction house.  I think of a cartoon that was on TBS called Captain Planet.    I won't go into specifics because frankly,  it was a horrid cartoon.    But the main part of the show was a chant that the kids did when they were combining their powers. "Earth,  wind,  water,  fire,  heart"....   [yes,  I know the rest,  it's embarassing]] But now,  the alchemist have a chant of their own.   [Primal Earth] ,   [Primal Air] ,   [Primal Water...
