We have been contemplating this idea for a long time now. The idea of releasing auction house videos of how we do what we do. There were a lot of privacy issues that came up, but in the end, we decided to go for it. We’ll see how this goes with just one 15 minute [...]
We wanted to inform our readers about some of the articles we found interesting and informative this week. It would almost be impossible for us alone to report on every single issue going on this week, though we want to try. Believe it or not, some of our posts take 3-4 hours to write, research, data-mine, test in-game, code, [...]
Sad news for fans of The Undermine Journal today. We just received the word that it will be closed down until further notice. Their blog has more information on the development of this wonderful tool for auctioneers. Here is a quick summary from their developer on why and if it will ever come back up. The reasons [...]
For those that remember early Wrath of the Lich King, there were bind on equip bracer’s that you could buy with emblems of valor. Now there is a Cataclysm equivalent of this. In about a week, some players will have enough Valor points to buy them depending on how fast they started doing the daily heroic [...]
A Guest Post by Alex of The Warcraft Journal Magazine The third World of Warcraft expansion, Cataclysm brings about many new features including guild leveling, races, class/race combinations and much more. Players of all types are excited to experience these and the rest of what Cataclysm has to offer. However, most people know that the main focus [...]
The list of profitable professions should look more like the one below, at least for the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. The list is based off of experience, interviews with gold capped and millionaire players, various gold blogs, articles, and forums. There is a common theme among those players that have hit the old [...]
Today Marco published a blog post regarding buying and selling gold, or in general, the sale of virtual items. Let’s face it, there are at least a good amount of people that engage in this activity, otherwise the gold selling companies wouldn’t exist. This is commonly called RMT or Real Money Trading. Geek Dictionary defines [...]
In Part 1 of our Cataclysm Preparation series, we talked about hitting level caps and saving materials to get a head start in leveling professions. In Part 2 we will discuss liquidating your items, organizing, and freeing up bank slots in preparation for all the new items and mats you will be collecting in Cataclysm. Liquidate [...]
A Guest Post By Banquiere of Nesingwary-US. Banquiere [Palmetto Bank] is one of my five human female alts (each decked out in elegant black dresses and ruby shades) that handle my banking on the Nesingwary server. As a brief background, I have been playing WOW since May of 2005 and I have four alliance level 80s. [...]
A Guest Post By Zenith of Zenith’s Round Table. I want to thank Warcraftecon.com for organizing this event and giving me a shot at winning the TCG loot card regardless of the card type. I plan on giving the winning card to my wife as a X’mas gift as we may not be getting Cataclysm this year. We [...]
A Guest Post By Cold of Cold’s Gold Factory. How To Make Gold In Cataclysm Mining, Herbing, and Skinning will be big sources of gold early into the Cataclysm Expansion as people will pay primium prices. The server first ability to craft items and gear that no one else can craft yet will be a huge [...]
This week I would like to talk about one of the more important things when trying to hit gold cap, diversity. While I am sure there are some items out there that you can craft and make decent sums of money, what happens when some yahoo comes along and drives the price into oblivion. Even [...]
Can I turn a 6 tab guild bank with 56,000 gold into the gold cap? This is a task I have taken on with my current guild. They don’t know it yet, but I will try to turn that 56k into 214k or at least double the amount of gold in the bank. I think [...]
This may seem like a no brainer to most, but sometimes even the brightest people need reminding. The moment I started crafting Trial of the Crusader bind on on equip patterns I developed a good feel for what those patterns sell for. As I did that i slowly picked up on what other BOE epic [...]
Author: Matticus of WorldofMatticus.com The guild bank continues to be a vital feature for the guilds of today. Just because bank features are offered does not mean that guilds are required to use them. However, used effectively, banks can help enhance the capabilities of guilds of all sizes. Are you a new guild leader without [...]
While doing some research on personal finance in real life, I have come across many articles and books that deal with the matter. It is like when a player goes out and reads the blogs, forums, and gold making guides to improve their income of gold. We had come across a well known book called [...]
A very interesting post on MMO-Champion.com, a WoW news and blue post site, has appeared. It is a nice simple guide on some ways you can make gold in the current WoW economy. It also covers topics like crafting/disenchanting and someAuctioneer basics. Although long time readers of Warcraft Econ won’t find anything new here, it is still an informative [...]
Lately it seems like some of us that have so much gold that we have nothing to spend it on. Although the majority of readers would love to have this problem, some still don’t make enough for various reasons. A frequent commenter, Zerohour, breaks it down for us: It boils down to one of either [...]
A very common question in the WoW economy is; What items should I be selling? Some players like me have learned the hard way by trial and error and making educated guesses on what items will sell. Not only if they sell, but how often and how many you can sell for a high gold [...]
This is an article idea that spawned from some of our readers. A handful have made so much gold that there really is nothing left to spend it on. Some, including me, have more than enough gold to last us well into the next expansion, afterall, we were prepared way before Wotlk was released. We [...]
It is amazing how some gold making methods are so simple that players overlook them. One of the most basic tactics is to convert one item into another for profit. An example would be combining leather to create the “heavy” version for a quick and easy profit. However methods like that usually requires a profession. [...]
About a week ago we wrote about Income vs. Spending and the use of Auditor to track your gold. Well we had said that we would publish our own numbers this week. We installed the addon during the early months of Wotlk when we were about level 76 grinding our way up to 80. Looking at the [...]
Recently there have been a lot of emails and people in general asking how to make gold. While this is nothing new, it seems like Ulduar and patch 3.1 has brought back some of the need for gold. Whether it is repair bills or consumables, we know that players are in need of gold for [...]
Mages and Shamans can go somewhere else 1) Getting out of tight spots: Stuck in Kel Thuzard’s throne room, but you’ve destroyed your hearthstone so you can loot Betrayer of Humanity? Have no fear, just drop raid group (/leave party) and wait for the friendly 1 minute countdown to dalaran! This basically works for anything [...]
Blizzard has recently announced some new badge information that are upsetting for a lot of 10 man raiders. There has been pages and pages of debate on this subject matter everywhere such as Wowinsider.com. The issue is that Ulduar10 badges are going to drop [Emblem of Valor], which is a 25-man raid emblem right now. [...]
Author: Level 80 Hunter Make sure you have enough money when leveling up your first Hunter. When you start your first toon on a new server, you want to get to Level 80 as soon as you can. Obviously, you have way more gold-making options at 80, plus that is when you can do the end-game [...]
Author: Level 80 Priest and a Level 80 Druid (tri-boxer) Questing, even at level 80 brings in a lot of gold and is usually more fun that grinding out eternals. Even without finishing every quest in Northrend and doing a few dailies here and there, you can easily obtain the achievement The Bread Winner; making [...]
While [Emblem of Valor] gear is nice, it is not the best in slot for most classes if not all of them. Some of you may have a whole bunch of these hanging out in your bags with nothing else to buy. You have the PvE gear you need off of the vendors and possibly bought pieces [...]
I believe that this is the first Darkmoon Faire since the new patch, it is going to be located right outside of Shattrath this time. It has been updated with Northrend items on the vendors. If Burning Crusade was any indication of the quality and price of these vendor items, we should be looking at dirt cheap [...]
Some of you by now, have a huge amount of [Emblem of Heroism]‘s from running heroics and 10-Man raids. After buying all the badge gear you need, what else is there to buy with these? Obviously you cannot trade up to the 25-Man versions, but you can trade down from 25 to 10 man badges. Keep in mind [...]
