12.1 prediction?

Hey goblins, is there theory yet about what profession would be good for 12.1 ? I spotted a few changes but am unsure if it would change some professions to profitable.

engineering is the biggest sleeper profession in midnight

You used to be able to make decent gold with concentration crafting in engineer, that has long since died and probably won't be coming back.

HOWEVER

-one engineer is essentially required for a mass enchanting army to churn out dirt cheap blues (even cheaper than tailoring)

-it makes essential tools for a variety of professions

-you make basically no gold if you aren't mass crafting or selling tools BUT, since the materials are dirt cheap you can complete basically all the patron orders for a gold profit. The endless material bags, runes, moxie, and raw gold you get from them really starts to add up. Theoretically if you are feeding shards of dundun in the most efficient way to one profession it might make sense to have engineering as your second profession.

Public AuctionDB Data Dumps

We're pleased to announce that TSM is now publishing completely free, public CSV dumps of all AuctionDB pricing data for all game versions and realms where pricing data is available. This includes all the values that are available in-game for every item and pet (as applicable), plus the item name in addition to the IDs.

The goal here is to make it as easy as possible to pull TSM pricing data into your spreadsheets. Check out this page for more information: https://tradeskillmaster.com/public-data

Note that this officially replaces our previous public web API (using legacy API keys) and any prior API / Google Sheet which requires a TSM API key should be treated as deprecated and will be disabled at some point in the future (but no earlier than 1 month from today).

Join us in #website in Discord if you have any questions or feedback on these changes.

What actually gives Tormented Tantalum?

I've heard prey hunts give them so I've been doing quite a few and have yet to see any. Is it only prey hunts that drop them or is there other ways to farm them?

Update So I did all my prey from nightmare to hard then normal and got absolutely zero tormented tantalum. Is it just incredibly rare or am I just super unlucky?

New Crafting Order addon: RecipeVault

So I developed this as a alternative to CraftScan/CraftRadar, as there are some things I wanted to have different, so vibed this to do things the way I wanted them arranged. (Yes, it's vibed, no I don't care about your views on that).

So what's different from the other two?

  • Static monitoring window while you are in a crafting area (and have access to trade and general chat).
  • The popups in the window will show you all your crafters that can make that item, so you can pick the crafter to respond with the "send to" message.
  • Auto-scanning of all your know recipes. Yes, this does mean you need to know more about which you can craft, but it also means you have control of the message, compared to the other two. The addon does mark the crafters that have made "rank 5" of the item. The tradeoff is you don't have to worry about adding patterns individually.
  • A variety of record keeping tools, based on how I wanted them, you may or may not find them useful, including tracking of resource procs over time.
  • Custom rules are done a bit differently, with hopefully a bit more options for those folks that just post "LF BS", so you can direct responses better. (For example, if a leather wearer posts "LF BS", you can reply to send to your weapon crafter, as that leather wearer probably doesn't want plate boots).

Note: I am not a coder, so I am not going to attempt localizations. If someone really likes this, and wants to work on that, awesome, DM me and we can talk, but figuring out how to do that is not something I have time to do, or the knowledge.

After months of building: ProfitProphet — a free all-in-one goldmaking addon (scanner, P&L ledger, craft profits, sniper, price heatmap) in one ~490 KB package

Hey goldmakers — solo dev here. I just launched ProfitProphet, a free all-in-one goldmaking addon for WoW Classic (Anniversary/TBC), and I'd love your feedback.

The pitch: TSM's breadth, Auctionator's simplicity. One addon, ~490 KB, zero dependencies, no companion app, no setup — install it and open the AH.

What's inside:

  • Full AH workstation — scan, post (two-click TOS-safe posting with undercut), cancel-undercut scanning, sniper, groups with posting rules
  • True P&L ledger — real profit per item from your actual sales/buys, not estimates
  • Craft profitability — every recipe priced against live mats, with a craft queue and shopping list
  • Price heatmap (day × hour) — see WHEN an item is cheap or expensive across the week, from your own scan history. Nobody else has this.
  • Buy/sell timing signals — each item flagged buy/hold/sell from its price range position
  • Bags replacement, cross-alt inventory, gold-per-day dashboard, price tooltips

What it's not: a TSM replacement for power users running 50-group operations across 10 alts. If that's you, TSM is still your tool. This is for everyone who bounced off TSM's setup or outgrew Auctionator.

Download: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/profitprophet It's free, no strings. I'll be in the comments — bug reports and feature requests very welcome (the changelog will show you I ship fast).

How to best utilize alts

Alright Goblin friends, I have an army of alts, two for each class (one for each faction) all on the same realm and am leveling up a few more of them from 80-90 with the current time walking event.

How can I best utilize max level alts to make some consistent gold across the next couple of raid tiers? I’m thinking professions like Alchemy might be my best bet but just curious if anyone has some tips/go to guides.

So far I’m planning to have 8 alts with at least heroic ilvl gear and 3 that are mythic ilvl if that matters.

Don’t mind putting in some upfront work, just want to never worry about gold again in the future!💰

Exalted Orb farm

I don't know if this ends up shooting me in the foot, but I think I stumbled upon a legit exalted Orb farm.

So the in-game currency-exchange through one of the NPC in town lets you trade Lvl 1 uncut skill gems for exalted orbs.

Last night I sold uncut skill gems for 130 exalted orbs. I seriously do not understand why people buy them for this much (loads gun)

Because uncut skill gems are really easy to get (aims at foot)

Just start a new character, and work your way to the muddy burrows. (Takes deep breath)

There is a rune that spawns a lvl1 uncut skill gems every single time. And after you did it, just exit the burrow, and re-enter with a new instant.

(Pulls trigger)

I framed 600+ exalted orbs in Lesl than 15 minutes yesterday this way

Vendor shuffle drama?

Hi goblins, players, regulars and recreative players.

I seem to have found a semi good afk vendor shuffle involving one-two professions.

Now, i completely believe that this is nothing new and everyone knows it but it's not fixed at the moment even after the mini "update" of turbulent timeways.

It seems that dornogal it's filled with bots and real players going for it 24/7. The gph is not bad for a semi afk (every 30 minutes i need to click into nothing), like 7k per hour leaving the character crafting and then vendoring.

The problem i have is how ppl taking advantage of something that's in the game without using any sort of glitch, exploit or anything else, can actually risk something bad. Since u are conpletely shadowed into the botting crew (but ur not actually botting) , i'm afraid to pay consquences.

So maybe u community, know better than me, maybe u know something from the past. Do i risk something or i can take advantage from it leaving my character online doing things for a little but contast profit even if dozens of bots do the same? It's all safe ?

What do you think about vebdor shuffle existing and so hard to manage.

Have a good day!

Thinking about coming back. How’s gold making these days?

Been away from the game for a little over a year and thinking about coming back.

I've always enjoyed making gold. I just like seeing the number go up. I used to do a mix of gathering, professions, flipping, and whatever else was worth doing.

What's the gold-making scene like these days? Anything that's fun and reasonably efficient, or has it changed a lot over the last year?

Classic+ Gold Making

Is anyone keen on classic+ gold making if it will exist? Do you think if it does come will the professions be neglected or changed from regular classic?

Anyone one going to blizzcon this year hoping for blizzard to announce classic+. I'm quite keen on a fresh economy and potentially new profession changes since wow retail is getting slow nerfs to all

Gold making activities for the average punter.

New patch For GFAH (Guild Found Auction House) with Request for service quote

https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/guild-found-ah

Recently pushed change, that will allow not only sell items, but also:

- request items

- request services (including ench, or any kind in note)

- provide offer (as seller)

- exchange for barter

- having concurrent vie for offers to decide which to take

- auto fill on trade

And most interesting thing - it does not require to be online to view the lots. AND it is not spamming in channel (as other addons do). It is silent, and robust

Built a WoW AH price tracking site as a personal project. It's ready - now I need feedback to make it better

I've been working on a personal project for the last few months, and it's finally at a point where I feel comfortable sharing it.

It's called Goblin Exchange: https://goblinexchange.com

The idea was pretty simple: I wanted a better way to browse Auction House data without jumping between multiple pages.

Right now it has things like:

  • Item price history (daily and hourly)
  • A heatmap showing the best hours to buy/sell
  • Cross-realm price comparison
  • Live market browser
  • WoW Token history
  • Region-wide commodity prices

It's available in all 10 WoW languages and doesn't require an account.

I'm still actively working on it, and my next goal is building addons that integrate directly with the site.

If anyone has a few minutes to look around, I'd really appreciate honest feedback. I'm sure there are things that could be improved that I simply don't notice anymore after staring at this project for months.

Tailoring/Enchanting

Im new to the game for the most part. Played wrath of the lich king when I was in middle school, but never understood the economy/professions much. I got my priest to 85, and was wondering about tailoring/enchanting. What would be a profitable use of those professions while being casual? I dont know much about what to do. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
