This is, sadly true, but what makes it sad is that she was never up to begin with. Yesterday, we all logged in to discover that druids and mages couldn’t portal to Kalimdor. If you got on a ship, everything stopped, you fell through Azeroth, and the ship reappeared at port and you got off. Even THAT was after it stopped disconnecting those who got on ships.
30 minutes after the raid was supposed to start, we all went to ZG. Gitr got a coin and an armsplint. I’ll have to look them up at home, because the names are weird. To top the night off, Tox opened a trade window with me after we took down Mandokir and gave me Myrmidon’s Signet. He hadn’t equipped it yet. When we got back to IF, we found out it goes for 600g. I was free to use it, or sell it, but he wanted 50% if I sold it. Afterward, he came into my room and said he doesn’t want to hear anything about not having good gear for at least a day. ๐
So, I still haven’t seen Onyxia, but I’ll be sure to let you know when we DO get another shot.
While waiting to see where we were going, Gitr dropped 300 Skinning to pick up mining. I want to be able to get Arcane Crystals without having to pay 20-30g a pop for them. That’s maximum profit for making Arcanite Bars. I can’t skin most of the stuff in the instances we run, anyway. It was nice money-making for leveling, but now that I’m 60, skinning doesn’t have that much profit forย me.
No! Don’t transmute arcanite! What a waste!
Buy the Transmute Undeath to Water recipe. It’ll cost you anywhere from 120-200g (I got mine for 120g, but it usually goes for around 200g on our AH).
You can then transmute an Essence of Undeath (cost: 50s-1g each) to an Essence of Water (sell price 7-9g) every day. That’s about 7-8g profit every day, as opposed to 4-5g profit every 2 days (or about 2-2.5g profit per day) transmuting arcanite.
Sure the up front cost is high, but with your profits, you can make it back in about 3 weeks or so.
I have my retired pally doing this (and creating mooncloth). I then transfer the wters over to myundead mage, wh further transmutes the Essences of Water into Essences of Air, which sell for around 15g each. I stocked up on about a year’s supply of Undeaths prior to patch 1.10 at around 50s each (they were really cheap because everybody was raiding Scholo/Strath prior to the 5-man cap), so now I make around 14g/day from this.
Therein lies the problem: I need to get 200g to buy the recipe ๐
That is my goal, but I have to build up the reserve first.
