12000g Profit in One Day Crafting Darkmoon Card of Destruction

208.3g. This means that I can pay up to 208g for a stack of lower end herb and be at cost, luckily I sell a lot of glyphs above my 65g threshold and you’ll see from my calculations later that I make a profit from the 200g value on the inferno inks.

30x Volatile Life

Paid on average 10g per Volatile life, costing me 300g per card. It would of been much cheaper if I had stocked up the previous week before the faire.

1x Resilient Parchment

Best Place to Farm Volatile Air

Out of all the spots I farmed in my trials I found the Scion of Al’Akir in Uldum to give the most volatile air, there are tons of them that spawn around the Orsis with about 4 that spawn inside. The spot isn’t camped to heavily and it’s easy to sneak up on them as a rogue since they remain standing in one spot facing south the whole time.

Volatile Air – 26 ( x 30g each

Most Profitable and Best Selling Glyphs in Cataclysm

As the list shows above, my highest profitable glyphs are Glyph of Shockwave, Glyph of Hammer of Righteous, and Glyph of Ice Barrier. These glyphs are selling for 166-179g each, and given my costs are 55g each, I’m pulling in a profit of 111 – 123g each sale.

Best Selling Glyphs in Cataclysm

In this next list I’ll sort my glyph sales by quantity sold, keep in mind that I don’t sell any glyphs below 58g. When I look at the glyphs on this list I have to pay certain attention to the ones that sell in very high quantities and a high price, these are glyphs that are at risk of going out of stock and I may not be posting enough at a time to reap in the maximum profit.

Inscription Addons – Crafting Glyphs in Cataclysm

Inscription is my main source of gold so far in Cataclysm. It only requires about an hour a day to pull in my profits but I wouldn’t get near this efficiency with my time without the proper addons to not only focus my efforts on the most profitable glyphs but to keep fully stocked on the AH at all times.

In this article I will go through the routine I use to craft glyphs and the addons I utilize in each of the steps. I learned a lot after reading WoW Schools guide and combined his methods there with these addons to make 4-5,000g profit a day.

1) Inventory Count – Altoholic

The first thing I do each day is log onto my 3 banking alts to empty the mailbox of any glyphs that have sold/expired and repost glyphs. This gives the addon Altoholic a chance to see what is in each of those characters bags/auction house so that it knows my inventory count of each glyph.

Download Altoholic

2) Scan the Auction House – Auctioneer

After your inventory has been accounted for you need to scan the whole auction house to know the current price of all glyphs. Using Auctioneer you can type in “/auc getall” and scan the AH within 3 minutes. This will update the price of every glyph so that you are only crafting glyphs above your acceptable profit margins.

Download Auctioneer

3) Queue Glyphs – KTQ, Skillet and LSWS

Now it’s time to craft, since our addons know our current inventory count and the price of all glyphs we can use Kev Tool Queue (KTQ) to only queue glyphs above a certain price. In order for KTQ to know the price it uses Lil’Sparkys Workshop’s database.

Right before you queue up your glyphs ensure that you have enabled KTQ’s price threshold:

/KTQ enable threshold

/ktq set threshold 60g    (This will only craft glyphs that are going for more than 60g each)

After you’ve enabled this, we are now ready to queue up all the glyphs in skillet with the command: /ktq queue 4 glyphs   (or however many you’d like to craft)

Download KTQ, Skillet, LSWS

4) Buy Materials – Auctionator

Archaeology Gets a Gold Boost – Hold Off Vendoring Greys

A new build on the PTR for patch 4.0.6 has listed the new prices for grey artifact items when grinding archaeology.

Don’t get too excited however, the amount of gold one could hope to gain per hour is still a measly 140g but the increase in prices are large, between 1000% – 3000% increases.

This change won’t be implemented until 4.0.6 launches, so be sure to keep any grey archaeology items you may have in the bank until then.

MMO-Champion has listed on a nice chart the current prices of each grey and the changes in the new build, go over and check it out.

As for a gold making method, 140g an hour is way behind any other kind of gathering you could do or crafting profession, however there are a large amount of people who do this profession for the rare weapons and this change will help pad their pockets a little bit.

Ink Trader in Orgrimmar and Stormwind – Patch 4.0.6

A blue poster has confirmed today that ink traders will be added to both Stormwind and Orgrimmar in patch 4.0.6:

Source

“Ink Traders are being added to Stormwind and Orgrimmar in 4.0.6.”

People have been requesting an ink trader be added to major cities since the start of Cataclysm, given that there are no longer portals available in Dalaran and since most people have their hearthstones set to either Stormwind or Orgimmar you’d have to find a mage to teleport you each time you need to craft glyphs and waste your hearth cooldown to get back.

I would be more excited about the news but for me it was never a big hinderance, I have engineering and with the Wormhole Generator: Northrend it was very easy for me to teleport over, I was even considering spending the 8,000g on the ring that teleports you directly to dalaran to save me from flying from storm peaks (since the wormhole generator doesn’t go directly to dalaran), good thing I didn’t now.

For me this is bad news as it may entice more people to get back into the inscription market since this reduces the effort or barriers to craft glyphs but I do see it as a positive change to the game as a whole.

The new ink traders can be found beside the Inscription Supplies vendors in Stormwind and Orgrimmar, you can also find them on the PTR right now.

Whiptail Farming – Spawn Rate Increase Patch 4.0.6

News making the waves across the WoW blogs are discussing a new area where Whiptail nodes seem to constantly respawn and the markets are being flooded with this herb.

If you log onto your server and search for Whiptail you will no doubt see a 15-30% decrease in the price.

Here’s the particular farming spot everyone has been going on about, in Uldum where you can stand in one spot and see 6 different nodes spawning rapidly:

I don’t think blizzard meant for the whiptail buff to be this dramatic, as it has already had large impacts on the WoW economy, some of which I’d like to discuss.

Whiptail Supply Goes Up, All Herb Prices Go Down

Not only does the price of whiptail drop significantly but the price of all other herbs will see a similar drop. Yes there are certain flasks and items that only require whiptail as a regeant but for all items where whiptail is a reageant the total cost to craft that item goes down which also lowers the value of the item and all the other regeants for that item.

Big Impact on Inscription Market

This is a delicate market where herbs dictate the costs of all glyphs and darkmoon cards. Since Whiptail is one of the higher end herbs that yield more inferno ink than the lower end ones it is gauranteed that the price of inferno ink will drop, making it cheaper for darkmoon cards to be made, driving down the prices of all darkmoon card decks.

With prices at 7g per Whiptail I am basically able to my glyphs FOR FREE if I am able to get 150g per inferno ink. Before I assumed my costs were about 35g per glyph so do I lower my threshold now? do I assume my costs will be lower, say 10g per glyph?

Hotfix Patch 4.0.6a Launched

While typing up this post I just noticed that my server was being reset and subsequently MMO-Champion has announced that a new hotfix 4.0.6a is being deployed on servers this morning, if I was a betting man I’d say the whiptail spawning rate is going to be fixed and the markets will normalize.

But will they normalize? since we are still in the expansion where prices continue to decline (albeit at a much slower percentage than in the first few weeks on the expansion) I don’t really foresee prices going back to the 12g per whiptail happening, since the supply of herbs are still somewhat higher than the current demand.

Did you get a chance to farm up lots of whiptail? did you buy out a lot of stock while prices were low? I guess we’ll see if the spawn rate really does get nerfed or if we’ll all have to adjust to this new market with lower herb prices.
