Herbed a lot in Scolazar, especially at non-peak times. Adder tongue is the best as it gives 50% icy pigment yield. I have over 60 snowfall inks from it now.<br /><br />Also I was lucky to get a Book of Glyphs for 100g some hours after patch release.<br /><br />I have been working full time at AH now, and cancelled all auctions that were underbid, and all the time produced new ones. Earned 8000 per day first , and now I have 22k more than release.Frostyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097314787630234175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-68940963152261922532009-04-18T18:31:00.000+02:002009-04-18T18:31:00.000+02:00i ran out of ink by the end of wed. i wish i had b...i ran out of ink by the end of wed. i wish i had bought more, i had a full 1000 northrend ink, and about 500 between the lower ones, notebly most from shimmering and etheral.<br /><br />like every one said, any thing below northrend herbs were sold out, and people were paying outrageous prices for them to get the ink....which made 0 sense<br /><br />i was able to find plenty of tiger lily and gold clover for under 1g, which i then just flipped into what i needed at the ink trader. I've been doing this for a while<br /><br />i refuse to buy any herb that is more expensive than northrend herbs, i generaly can pick northrend ones up for 1.2 or less each, and useualy can find them in the 85-90silver range. <br /><br />the markets have realy slowed down now, but i can still make a reasonable 1k a day. but volume is way down, some glyphs are just still selling for more. this means the market is really gona tank with in the next few days. Glyphs have been my main stay for months now. i wish i had been more proactive about getting my reserves up (gold wise) but i got lazy when ever i had around 5k.<br /><br />regardless, i have easily made about 15-20k since patch day. <br /><br />i have also had crap luck with those books. i managed to snag 2 for 700, and one was given to me by a random player who was hoping i would learn the glyph the wanted. all 3 yeilded horrible glyphs though. now people are trying to sell them for 3k (have yet to hear of any one actually getting that amount, M&S just think they can gouge for that much)hoping to see some generated from with in guild soon.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14670432179828878508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-16792321452520273452009-04-18T00:35:00.000+02:002009-04-18T00:35:00.000+02:00More and more books appearing on my server, curren...More and more books appearing on my server, current low is 2200 bid (no buyout), high is 6k buyout.

Be aware that there are some herbs that many scribes don't look for on the AH and can come cheaper. Mana Thistle and Ancient Lichen. Look for all of them. I'm running low on Shimmering Ink as well (because of the two new DK glyphs that use them) but I'm also noticing that I'm the only one selling many glyphs because my competitors weren't prepared and I'm the only one that has stock.<br />I'm one of the lucky ones that has made a real killing.

Once the new season hits and enough guilds are clearing a good portion of ulduar I expect another run on the enchants and the mats used to make them.<br /><br />They're also used in the titansteel series, but I'm wary to enter that market because of the mass amount of people able to craft them, too much competition for low demand.Frizzlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-35185213625048926172009-04-16T21:01:00.001+02:002009-04-16T21:01:00.001+02:00I had a different experience: I had camped the DMF...I had a different experience: I had camped the DMF last week and gotten tons of inks for almost nothing. I had bought herbs/inks for weeks. I ended up with over 1000 ink and I crafted over 1000 popular glyphs.<br /><br />My scribe had leveled up just a week before, so he had only 7-8 discovered majors/minors, which hurt a lot.<br /><br />I liquidated 6000g worth of glyphs in the frenzy, and did not run out, but people were massively undercutting to the point where I didn't bother posting a lot of them: at 2g/glyph I wasn't going to trade in 2 snowfall for 2 jadefire to undercut.<br /><br />Two days later, the only market left seems to be for the newly-discovered glyphs. Nuture was found yesterday and the guy paid 2k for the book of glyph mastery; the glyph itself is posted at 500g/ea. Not sure if they're moving.<br /><br />Anyway, I cleared over 10k on patch day, 6k of that in glyphs. Now watching for other reactions in the market... currently prices are DOWN from pre-patch. Perhaps ppl are liquidating to get the 1k they need for dual-spec or raid consumables.Fixeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13637305874071866995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-81088953273911714752009-04-16T21:01:00.000+02:002009-04-16T21:01:00.000+02:00I posted 2k glyphs (half the market) for 49g each....I posted 2k glyphs (half the market) for 49g each.

I tried listing a set of glyphs at stupid prices (50g+) but was quickly undercut. Even so, glyphs that sold for 8-12g are now going for 20-25g which isn't bad at all, just not as great as selling them at 100g.<br /><br />Another trend I'm noticing is people dumping their banks to pay for dual spec. You'd think they would have been prepared, but I'm seeing frozen orbs, arctic fur, tailor cooldown cloths, etc for prices at record lows. I'm still expecting these items to all peak once the new patterns hit town so I'm buying up as much as I can while the prices are good. <br /><br />Anyone else seeing similar behavior on their servers?Frizzlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-84060192494234312182009-04-16T18:32:00.000+02:002009-04-16T18:32:00.000+02:00I made about 10k on Teusday and 10k on Wednesday. ...I made about 10k on Teusday and 10k on Wednesday. 4k today so far (it's nearly noon now).

I'm not even a very high level scribe yet (280 at the beginning of the night, 315 by the end). <br /><br />Consequently, I threw leveling to the winds and went herb farming.... Everyone else apparently had the same idea, there was barely an herb to be seen in all the old world.
