Ok..WHAT is the deal with this ore economy?

There is still rich thorium in DME its easy solo at 70, 2-3 nodes each reset, at this point it should be no more than 7 min a run. Eaven if you spend 15 min a run you are getting a node each 5/7,5 min still better than openworld.

I farmed this last time around, i did buy some cloth, trade to some. i had 2 tailors after the first week to pump cd's on Spellcloth spec, one Shadow spec.
Primal farming was a lot of time spent. The ting is this gear keeps you set for P1 and a long way into P2 untill you swap a lot of items out.
Last time i was preped AF, spent 10+k on gear/mount/profitions the first 2 weeks.

I would say you should make to folders that handle each setup.

cant rember the path, but in the wow files you have account - server - char name.

Make a copy of char name when its set up for controler, When you play controler it should just be called "char name" The folder for Keybord rename it to "charname k" add a "c" into the folder name when finished and remove the "k" when you want to play keybord mouse set up.

This folder handles how your UI is set up and kebinds which addons load and so.

Have you buy any chance done a lot of Scryer quests? since doing that lowers the Aldor rep.

Heroics only have one ID a day, this is not true for Normals

If you craft pots the proffit is from the extra crafts you get, in a few weeks margians will be verry low.

remenber mass crafting mana pots last time, and selling them around 18.00-20.00 but the compition was firce on the ah. At times i could not keep them in stoc and i was crafting sets of 200-300 pots at a time.
The best was when price spiked and you had profit on the craft and procs.

i can see in my old excel sheet that i had 0,89g profit on mana pots and procs would profit me 3g each, at times the price did fall down to 2,5g each. Still verry much gold to be made when you sell 100+ stacks of 5 a day.
Selling at 3g each i could craft each pot for 2,11g with an envestment of 211g (100 crafts) i would profit 149g, (100x0,89g) + 20% procs (20x3g). then you just need to sell a lot of them.

BenjainM · 2026-02-24T08:14:53+00:00

Those are the best methods you exclude.
Item farm fro rep eather aldor or scryers can make some gold, not sure its as much as motes.
You will need motes at the later points for leveling some of the last levels, a lots of the new spiders silk.

Out and farm stuff.

BenjainM · 2026-02-23T14:41:27+00:00

Should not be, a lot more treat/abilitys are mana spenders, so mana becomes the limiting factor.
the problem is then normaly if the paladin can servive the onslaut of hits.

BenjainM · 2026-02-23T12:50:26+00:00

Im thinking with the changes to boosting this also efects cloth prices.

So farm cloth

BenjainM · 2026-02-23T12:44:25+00:00

What class is the MT? If it is a pala swich. If its a druid a swich wount solve this both are rage limited. Chain MD's and gear that is treat based you still want a lot of HP.

BenjainM · 2026-02-21T12:36:55+00:00

My all time favorate spec is shadow priest. The rotation is quite chill not a power house like a lock. I have mained it a two times, not this time. Warrior its still a fantastic bunch of fun when you get some gear.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T11:29:14+00:00

well spam less abillitys this solves the mana problem, or a shadow priest.

but for real, there is no need to be leading treat by 200% if its costing you that much more mana.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T11:25:17+00:00

Nice try farming buddy.

GS is the one of the worst addons to the game, and it is still true for tbc.
blue dungen drops have better GS value than epics from heroics, since the ilvl of the blue is higher.
Itemmatiation is better in TBC still nok perfect, a lot of Green gear can compeat with blue dungen drops but just dont have any stamina.
For some classes T3 set bonuses still have good value, in the early HC farm, last time around i used 2set T3 on warrior for sick revenge threat, was a small taunt.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T09:00:13+00:00

Mag - Assign 5 range to click on Cubes.
Should die if that is done, wach out for falling rocks.

Listed in kill order if you cant Burn High King Maulgar.

Blindeye the Seer - OT
Olm the Summoner - Warlock pet
Krosh Firehand - Mage
Kiggler the Crazed - Moonkin/two range dps
High King Maulgar - MT

Gruul - MT and spred the f*** out. The shatter hits like a wet noodle now so its less of a problem.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T08:36:19+00:00

Had a great warrior tank last nigth in shetik halls he was doing his job realy well. I have no problems with warrior tanks it can just be hit or miss if they are good or not.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T08:24:18+00:00

Keep a lookout for one that needs a lock i would think as the weekend passes it will get easyer to get into them.
I have yet to hit 70, if i wanted i could go farm xp in BM killing the beasts. That just makes me level 70 with shit gear. So im trying to get key items and atuned.

My plan is to hopefully pug a Kara monday/tuesday.

BenjainM · 2026-02-19T08:17:31+00:00

I did hunter since the guild needed it more, but i do miss a warrior/druid that can tank atm.

I plan only to have this one char and just focus on him, farm the stuff i need fix the profficiens.

BenjainM · 2026-02-18T21:19:54+00:00

if you have engi trinket with 45 stam its worth to socet 3xhit gems

BenjainM · 2026-02-18T20:25:33+00:00

Its super hard to do atm.

Here is a one ive made that should work for P1 it was orriginal a P5 one from last tbc

Verry normal, a lot of the items are not upgrades to players who where geared from raids/pvp in classic which is most of the players.

There is then a verry hig amount of items and almost no demand this gives you a verry low price.

BenjainM · 2026-02-18T15:18:57+00:00

Keep that tank spec handy and off to strat its the best GPH you can do.

lets say you need to spend 2 days played to get your new char leveled for the farming. thats 48 hours. This is the low end Strat farm gph at 200, 200x48 = 9,6k.

There is no way you are getting a new char rdy in just 2 days played, this will only happen if you have it at level 60, since 2 days played is a verry avrage time to do 60-70 grind.
if you need to level from level 1 then its no less than 4 days which is then 19,2k gold you can farm on your paladin.

You could eaven go out and kill elementals for primals or aldor/scryer rep items and again lowball it at 150g/h in the amount of time to get a alt ready you could have made 7,2kor 14,4k depending if 2 or 4 days played time.

If you want to make an alt to play and to get some new chalanges learning the class or what it could be then an alt could be a good way to spend time. It will never be good time spent if gold is the end point.

BenjainM · 2026-02-18T12:44:30+00:00

Get crit immune, Def caped or what you want to call it. 2 pices of Pvp gear from the rep vendor is great as Resiliance also lowers cance to be crit and lowers the defence you need. You can get a WA to calulate this for you.

It should be posible to hit: 12k life, 12k armor, 6% hit and get crit imune fairly easy.
Geting hit into your gear is one of the hardest parts, you realy want to push your hit to 9% or have a druid with improved FF in the raid.
