Best Profession in Cataclysm Revisited

Best Profession in Cataclysm Revisited

Leatherworking: Dark Nerubian Leggings, Dark Icebourne Leggings, Dark Frostscale Leggings

Leatherworking: Dark Nerubian Leggings, Dark Icebourne Leggings, Dark Frostscale Leggings

This is a simple crafting into disenchant method which converts cheap leather and eternals into [Dream Shard]‘s. The three items that work the best are: [Dark Nerubian Leggings] [Dark Icebourne Leggings] [Dark Frostscale Leggings] All of these BOE blue items will disenchant into a [Dream Shard] and use 4 [Heavy Borean Leather] each as well as [...]

Leatherworking: Arctic Boots, Iceborne Gloves, Nerubian Legguards

Leatherworking: Arctic Boots, Iceborne Gloves, Nerubian Legguards

We have seen methods like this one before where you turn cheap raw materials into an item that can be disenchanted to net a higher value, sometimes even vendored for profit. This works because raw materials generally are in huge supply flooding the auction house resulting in low prices. Blizzard does sometimes end up nerfing [...]

Professions Inside Ulduar

Professions Inside Ulduar

Leatherworking: Leg Armor Kits

Leatherworking: Leg Armor Kits

By far, this is my most consistent market I participate in. Demand remains constant, prices are going to keep going up, and materials for the kits always costs less than the finished product.

Leatherworking: Quivers and Ammo Pouches

Leatherworking: Quivers and Ammo Pouches

  As we all know, most new items on a server will sell for large amounts of gold, usually much higher than the materials themselves. Combine that with a crafting profession and a reputation dependant recipe, you get an opportunity for a temporary monopoly.  In simple economics, a monopoly is control of a product or service in [...]

Leatherworking: Leg Armor Kits

Leatherworking: Leg Armor Kits

Crafting these leg armor kits were one of my most profitable items sold on the auction house. After the patch that removed BOP primal nethers, I was able to just buy the mats, craft the kit, and sell on the AH for about a 100-150g profit. Estimated time to buy, craft, and list was 1 [...]
