Patch day is easily one of my favorite in game events. While everyone else is scrambling back and forth between the auction house and the mail box, checking out new content or spamming trade chat for a Jewelcrafter, I’m playing the market.
I recently started selling some of my surplus gold over to Mogs.com, a Cheap American based Warcraft Gold Supplier. At first I was kind of wary of the whole gold selling thing, but after talking to one of the guys in their live chat I was shocked to find out that not only did they actually speak English but they were located in America. Mogs.com has everything from WOW TCG Rare Loot Items, Hand Powerleveling, Quick Face to Face Gold Trades, and of course excellent customer service.
Most World of Warcraft patches present a unique opportunity to capitalize on the fundamentals of commerce. Your ability to prepare for a patch will make or break a good patch day lottery. When you start to learn more about the WOW Economy it becomes easier to see which changes are going to have a big effect and plan ahead for them.
One of the easiest ways to find out what is going to happen is to go straight to the source and check the patch notes. Scanning through the most recent World of Warcraft PTR Patch Notes we can find a couple potential gold-making highlights and market tips.
Engineering Takes a Small Hit
Engineer crafted Injector kits let you stack 20 pots into one slot, thus saving on bag space. When you need to pot, you use the injector. It has 20 charges and each charge gives the same health or mana that a runic pot gives by itself.
All stackable potions now stack to 20.
Now that by itself might not mean much, but when we consider one of the handful of money makers for any Engineer is Mana Injector or Healing Injector Kits, a cloud of trouble starts to emerge.
With the next patch, Engineer’s Injector Kits become almost worthless. Although they will now increase the amount of health or mana gained by 25% when used by engineers, there will be little to no market value for them… the same as every other Engineering only item.
Inscription
Glyph of the Claw is being added to the game, and you can expect pretty much every feral druid pre-level 50 (when they are able to train Mangle) to pick it up. Although you wont be able to make this until patch day, you can farm the materials ahead of time and be prepared.
All you need is:
1x Midnight Ink
1x Light Parchment
Glyph of Exorcism will be back in demand for PVP Specced Paladins now that 3.2 will allow it to be usable on players again, albeit with a 1.5 second cooldown.
Mining
Titanium Ore. Mine it, buy it, trade for it, steal it from your guild bank.Once the patch hits the demand is going to go sky-high. It will find a new use in some new epic Blacksmithing gear, and Jewelcrafters are going to prospecting it en-mass in order to fill the demand for empty sockets from new content upgrades and the ability to craft Epic Gems that can be obtained from prospecting Titanium Ore.
Fishing
If you haven’t bothered to level your fishing since the last changes, now would be a good time to start. Do it yourself or get your fishing powerleveled by a professional, just make sure you get it done or your not living up to your full earning potential. Besides the benefits of being able to auction off your Buff Food, in patch 3.2 Fishers with a min 300 skill may find a Waterlogged Recipe in with their Northrend Fishing Daily quest rewards.
When the Waterlogged Recipe is turned in it will grant several Dalaran Cooking Awards. You can sell the Waterlogged Recipe to achievement junkies and cooking enthusiasts who want the new Chef’s Hat (will soon speed up cooking times) and the related achievement, Cooking with Style.
New Non-Combat Pets
Patch 3.2 is introducing a slew of new content, but one of the most anticipated niche items comes in the form of a new Non-Combat Raptor Pet. These pets will drop from mostly rare raptors and in the first dew days when 3.2 hits live servers you can get big cash farming Raptor Non-Combat Pets and selling them for a very decent 1-3k Gold a pop.
Darting Hatchling – Dark orange raptor that occasionally runs away leaving a trail of dust; dropped by Dart (rare).
Deviate Hatchling – Purple raptor dropped inside Wailing Caverns.
Leaping Hatchling – Dark blue raptor that occasionally wanders off then leaps to your feet; dropped by Takk the Leaper (rare).
Ravasaur Hatchling – Green raptor dropped by Ravasaur Matriarch (rare).
Razormaw Hatchling – Light orange raptor that occasionally screeches; dropped by Razormaw Matriarch (rare).
Razzashi Hatchling – Red raptor dropped by Razzashi Raptor.
Of course, if your lazy, you can always have the guys over at Mogs.com farm up some raptor pets for you. One day of Item Hunting only costs 20 bucks, but some quick googling turned up a coupon code on their WOW Gold twitter page that gives 10% off all power leveling orders.
Check out the Mogs.com Powerleveling services and make sure you use the discount code “MYVOUCH” to get 10% off at checkout.
