New name, new focus! Also, Darkmoon Cards and big $$$

I'm Back!

After a fairly long hiatus I've decided to return to the blogging scene with a more refined focus. From now on this blog will be about the subtle art of making a Scrooge McDuck style vault full of wowgold for my toons to swim around in as I push towards the new gold cap of 1,000,000g.

Or ski in if they so desire.

Hopefully along the way I can share some useful and interesting tips for all the other budding goblins out there. So with that out of the way, lets talk gold.

Darkmoon Cards

I've been hovering at around only 5k liquid lately as I have invested very heavily into making the new darkmoon cards. I haven't been keeping proper records of my spending on herbs and volatile life stacks but at a guess I would have spent around 60k gold total. The reason I've been putting all of my eggs into the darkmoon basket so to speak is the fact that there is still a very limited supply of the various trinkets on my server. As I go about my daily auctioning routine I generally check the prices of these trinkets only to often find that there are none for sale at all. Coupled with the extremely limited supply is the fact that this early in the expansion and with only the first tier of raiding available there are very few substitute trinkets so demand is high as well. It is basically a no-brainer: make cards > turn them into trinkets > profit.

What I have gotten in return and the usual sale price per item on the ah on my server for the completed trinkets (as I will be turning in the cards and selling the trinkets themselves):
- 3 x Hurricane Deck (30k+ each)
- 2 x Earthquake Deck (15k each)
- 2 x Volcanic Deck (30k+ each)
- 1 x Tsunami Deck (35k+)

Total if all sell at the above prices = 215k for a total profit of 155,000 gold. Not bad for a few hours spread over a few weeks.


The darkmoon faire starts tomorrow and given that it's the weekend herbs and volatiles are super cheap so I may even manage to squeeze out a few more decks to pump up the profits even more.
