I’ve been a little busy the last 2 weeks, first getting sick and then we are doing some remodeling, so I was forced away from my alts for a while. I was afraid the trend would continue to fall rapidly, but I was quite pleasantly surprised to see that many concentration builds are still cooking.
Concentration builds are easy to set up
There are a lot of concentration builds that are very easy to setup, and can be done with first craft bonuses and the treasures you get from traveling. You don’t need intricate setups or acuity shuffles to be profitable. If you just have 1 character your profits won’t be too high, but they will continuously accrue.
The top 3 builds.
Enchanting
Enchanting is the best build in my opinion. It is relatively cheap to set up, not to mention quick as you can very easily get to the required knowledge. If you farm some treasures you can just spam disenchant to catch up on knowledge even. Cursed ring recipes are a great one to focus on as the recipes are AH based and not everyone will have bothered buying them. Another alternative are the recipes you unlock from the profession trees to target items with lower competition.
Inscription
Inscription is quite easy to setup, with most of the same build working for contracts and vantus runes. The vantus rune has the higher concentration right now, so I would stick to that. It will retain some value for a while I suspect.
Alchemy
Alchemy is quite good, but it is a bit more knowledge-heavy than other professions. You will need to spend more gold and time unlocking the knowledge necessary to get a harmonious horticulture or flask build going, but once you do the concentration value is quite high.
Expected results
If you go any combination of these three you will make about 20 gold per concentration total per character. That’s about 4800 gold profit per character per day. With just two characters doing this you should make a token in a month!
