Inscription: just mill!

Tags: , ,

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.

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.
