Armor Ahead, revamp

Seth had a post about BOE on leveling from June

He suggested not to buy nor equip the BOE gear you happened to come across… And I agreed, I usually sell those gear on AH.

However, I come across some exception, and fromed this quick tip…

e.g.
http://www.wowhead.com/?itemset=763
http://www.wowhead.com/?itemset=754
http://www.wowhead.com/?itemset=755
http://www.wowhead.com/?itemset=756
http://www.wowhead.com/?itemset=757

Northern’s Profession 68-74 Green set is too nice to pass. The effictiveness level on those set is as strong as Tier 4 set. With the price stabilized on Northern, tipping for crafting those set is a bargain. (I got mine for 80g/Set)

Consider the time saved on increased you dps on killing each mob.
The oppuertunity cost definitely cover the set.

Take a look on price if you are not convinced.

BrewFest Trade

Direbrew

No, this post is not about gold.
It’s about pursuits of the Brewfest Mount

So, a normal player are meeting Direbrew 5 times a day.
Some of them is wishing the brewfest mount drop, so they gotta roll on that. With many replicated trinket left behind.

Is that the only way?
How about paying people for summoning Direbrew?

I got an even cheaper solution.

Asking player to summon Direbrew for free…
Yes, it’s cool, but how to get them to do it for free?

Secret ingredient: 75-79 player.

Of course, some of them will fight the boss with their guildmate, but still lots of them are rejected in the PUG channel.

Offer them the Trinket you don’t need anyway
(if it drops, let them have it, Not suitable of their class? it’s free, come tomorrow)
And request that you can get the mount if it drop.

It’s a fair deal for both of you.
Free Summon for Free Trinket.

P.s I know this post is kinda late, but we still got couple of days left~~

Almost Weekly Report (28 Sep)

Weekly Summary

The Blog

Apart from stress from work, I was quite busy, I only did couple of respond post and silly post recently, if you notice.

I was also busying to set up a counter part of the blog in chinese with some of my fellow traders.

I found that the trade-related information is very limited in the chinese blogosphere (We don’t have much blog anyway). Some of the chinese had a bad traditional, which keep us away from sharing knowledge among each other. Humble is very notable virtue for chinese, but then it encourage people keep secret from each others inhabit the society from evoling.

So I would take some of my time on translating and writing in chinese, and hopefully that won’t draw too much of my time on blogging in english..

On the other hand, I would like to mention again, I am looking for Co-author here, just send me email if you are interested. (I am definitlygo for a formal post later.)

While the end-game content on sight, (My shaman is 77lv now, by the time of editing). I may become yet more slacking on posting, I would post some Goblin pre-raid and raiding post though…

The Blogosphere

Seth had preparing on his podcast, be sure give him some opinion and support.

Lots of WoW-econ blog starting, here is a quick list Wow Enomics team put up. Have a look if you are interested. (The list is too long for me to descript here, but if any new fellow is missing on the list, (Or you want a feature post here), feel free to email me on that, I am more than happy feature you here)

The Business

Still selling the glyphs, after the dark moon faire, I almost sold all of my ink of falling snow, and Enchanting is still stuck on 310, so I am able to disenchant early northen gears but not the higer one.

I am also converting the shround with tailoring, but that seems to be work rather than business to me. As predicted the price of Netherweave cloth is climbing, on my server it was 3g/stack, but climb to 4-4.5 stack now. The price of bag is raised from 7g to 10g now, but I assume with the increase of the price, many will buy Northen-Weave bag instead.

Btw, I reached half the goal, the 100k mark before my gear-buying spere begin.
