Europe got the patch yesterday! Sadly enough I didn’t have too much time to check it all out so I did the important stuff only. My warlock got 40K (!!) honor in marks, and my Shaman got 20x Frost lotus from the frozen orb trader…
And Gold twinkeled in my eyes!

first off let’s see what you can get with the frozen orbs:

Crusader Orb = 6 Frozen Orbs
Runed Orb = 4 Frozen Orbs
1 frozen orb = every eternal
1 frozen orb = Frost lotus

The price of these at my server are:
Frozen orb = 30ish gold
4 orb = 100G
6 orb = 160G
Eternals = 8-14G (depending on which)
Frost lotus = 35-50G

Now these are probably going to change a bit. Though dependent on the server, my guess is that the “higher quality” orbs, are going to fall down in price (25%ish) , the eternals will double in price for the first month then settle on 150% value and the frost lotus is going to drop 10% in price. That’s my prediction, but since we can’t look in the future I’m working with my current nrs.
Currently my Goldmaking tips are:
1: buy frozen orbs that are below 25 gold on AH.
2: trade them to frost lotus
3: sell those for 30-35 gold on the AH = profit

So as of this moment a frozen orb is worth 35Gold, this will change though, but then ofc I’ll let you know.

Great tip by Oxymustard:
Nice tip, I’d also like to give out a tip to your Alchemist readers. If you’re an alchemist or are still leveling you better hurry and make Potion Mastery your area of expertise. You sometimes make 4-5 flasks for the price of 2. With flask prices dwinling in the 25-30g area that could mean a 40-60g profit on a frost lotus + mats.

The crafter’s corner brings uss a weekly noise. It sounds like *tjing Tjing* And is annoying as hell… Try to stand in the middle of Ironforge for more then 10 seconds and you’ll know why. hammer on metal isn’t the sound that we all love and enjoy. Yet for those first 10 seconds it’s a bliss, since we all know that sound makes uss money.

Now that inscriptioners are still abundant ’cause of th emmo-champion guide I want to get this over with. A lot of new inscriptioners means that they are using a lot more herbs, some by farming, some by buying. Others are even more ignorant and buy the ink’s. And today I’m talking about those.

90% of the new inscriptioners are still doing the Northrend inscription research. Most of them also try to make darkmoon cards. Which in turn means they need a lot of ink. Now selling these ink can be very profitable.

I’m an inscriptioner (orsomething similar) too. And I do the following:

Buy as much northrend herbs as I need. Mill them all, make the inks.
Now the Ink of the sea I need for my glyphs, but the Snowfall inks are practicly useless for me.

Whiteline

Now I buy a stack for about 25gold. And one stack gives me about 1-3 snowfall inks, which I sell for 12-20G a piece (depending on the current market price)

Whiteline

Now That means that I can actuallly sell my glyphs for 1gold and make a profit.  The snowfall inks alone give me back my investment so the only cost I have left is the parchments.

whiteline

That right there, Is how we can profit from “sheep” people that follow guides without thinking any further. If a guide is out there and it gets a lot of followers, uss Goblins, uss real Auctioneers and bankers Anticipate and React and Profit.
