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.

For those that are tired of the same ways of making money. For those that want something completely else to do, for those that want something different.


How to make gold in a boring, suicidal, ludicrous or other way, this new installment will hopefully cheer you all up with prospects in the future!

Today: Old sKool Raiding!

Yes raiding lvl60 and 70 content, though for different reasons.
lvl60 raids and dungeons drop parts of the first ever made dungeon set and 3 of those (waist, hand and wrists) are BoE, now I know what you are thinking, but seriously they sell! and they sell for about 50-100G a piece, if you are lucky and run MC with 2-4 guys (3 is the best tbh, 2 makes some mechanics finicky) you can get dungeon set 2-3 wrists/belt. that was the first EPIC set and the wrists and belt again are BoE these sell for about 100-200G a pop. Now include this with about 100G you get from the raid itself + another 100G for core of earth, hearth of fires etc. and you get between 250 and 500G for a run of an hour, This isn’t the “best” way to make money but it is fun! if you want some old gear for your self (I got my full dungeon 1 set on my hunter) or want to get an achievement or just want some fun, this is a good way to make an extra buck

lvl70 dungeons/raids are yet again a bit different. These drop a lot of blue/epic BoP items so money doesn’t come from them, but the bosses drop about the double amount of gold, a lot of greens on trash and some misc’s all around. The money is about 200G if you are running with more 4 guys, about 250 when you run with 3.
Other reasons to run this content is to get some really really easy reputation. If you want to complete your skillbook this is another reason to run these things. (Don’t forget that those patterns etc, can make you money if your lucky) Or do you want a new mount? go for the impossible drops and get a phoenix, a horse, a raptor etc etc…

As said the money isn’t all that, but it still makes you a nice buck, and is guaranteed to push your skills if you only take a min. of persons.

So if you want some gold, some fun, some skill testing, some “bonding” in the guild/friends, suicidal runs (your a lvl60 running with 2 lvl80 guildies) or just want to tag along while bored. this is the place to go.

I’ll see you next week ready to go again!

Seth,
