Midnight is on the close horizon and I’m going to jump in!
Disillusioned
I have not been super active in TWW or Dragonflight, as I have been raiding in Cata and MoP, but I’m diving into midnight head first. I have not had time or the inclination to do heavy beta research, so I’m jumping in sort of blind, but with a lot more interest. I hope to be able to deliver useful tools as I go and get back into the fun of retail goldmaking!
Is Lazy goldmaking dead?
One reason I have not done as much in TWW and DF is that the profession overhaul in Dragonflight killed a lot of the markets I had been most succesful in. Crafted catch up gear for instance has not really been a thing since Shadowlands. In addition profession knowledge HEAVILY favors playing a lot, with tactics like acuity shuffling by swapping professions and an extreme focus on margins with the region wide AH.
The War Within brought it back
To be fair this was a huge issue in Dragonflight, but The War Within changed inspiration to concentration. This meant that we now have access to a lazy goldmaking method again with concentration alt. Once you’ve set your alts up you just have to log in every 2 days to spend concentration and do some weekly chores to unlock knowledge.
So we need to set up
Right now I’m in the process of leveling my characters. I had 8 or 9 concentration alts at the end of TWW, and I’m working on getting them to 80, I’m a little over halfway. I’ll also try to level a couple of more characters and I may buy the epic edition for both my accounts to get another boost each. This would put me at 12 concentration crafters. If concentration values are in the 10-20 gold range which they were at the beginning for many professions that will yield somewhere in the 25-50 000 gold profit per day across my alts.
I’ll probably swap some professions around once we are live, but we’ll see where I can get the right setup easily. I’m coming in semiblind this time which I find a lot more fun than figuring out everything on the beta, even if it does put me at a VERY large disadvantage.
Flipping still exists
Multi realm flipping focusing on cosmetics is still a very good market, but personally I don’t enjoy it much. I won’t be restarting my multi realm flipping setup as I got really burned out on doing it which eventually led to me just not logging in for a long while and losing millions of gold worth of battle pets to AH expirations.
Man, I’m in the same boat. I was having a blast in Shadowlands (from a goblin perspective) and made close to 50 million across the expansion (I’m just on a single realm). The crafting rework just kinda killed all the fun so I’ve been coasting since then. Kinda hoping I can find something engaging to make gold again in Midnight…
100% understand losing AH mail to expiration from getting burnt out and not logging in. Happened to me too.
Sounds like a smart way to ease back into goldmaking for Midnight. Concentration alts look like a solid low-effort method once the characters are leveled, especially if the values stay decent. Setting up a dozen crafters could add up nicely without constant grinding.
I’ve been mixing gaming time with the odd session on online casino Ontario lately easy to dip in when I want something different from the AH.
Hope the semi-blind approach pays off and the markets treat you well once launch hits.
Pirots 3 heb ik onlangs geprobeerd op https://boomsbet-games.com/ en die speelt toch net even anders dan de meeste slots. De bonusfeatures maken het wat leuker als je meerdere rondes speelt. Ik moest er in het begin wel even aan wennen.
