Inscription is gold Making Machine
We’ve never seen anything like what inscription is about to do to the WoW marketplace. Every single toon on every single realm is going to want glyphs. They will want them the minute the patch goes live. They will want them for every alt. They will want the very best glyphs. They will want minor glyphs. They will want them, and they will want them so badly they will pay almost anything a high level scribe will charge.
We’ve been working with inscription for more than a month now. When Blizz added the glyphs to the profession, we did some serious herb farming and started over from scratch in inscription so that we could begin working on a guide for leveling the profession. What we found will shock you.
You know we’re not given to exaggeration. Shock is one of those words thrown around pretty lightly these days, but in this case it may actually not be strong enough. If you’ve ever had problems making gold, this is your shot. If you know how to make decent gold and want to take the quantum leap to dragon size piles of it, this is your chance. There simply is not enough hyperbole to describe just how big a money-maker this one is going to be, and it’s coming very soon.
Just to prove a point about this whole gold thing – I’m going to show you something. Last Thursday (when we heard that inscription was going to go live in the next patch) I hopped on the Beta realm right away and got to work farming herbs like a wildman. I actually started by copying a pre-made toon to the Beta. The pre-mades are wicked. I chose a level 80 druid so that I could use flight form to farm herbs. This guy came with every piece of high end PvP gear (for all three specs) a flying mount, an epic land mount, every flight path and 5,000 gold to boot. It was the perfect setup for running through this profession in record time.
Well, I spent about 1,000 of that 5,000 gold while I worked inscription through the first 100 skill points. There were no herbs on the AH, so I had to farm every single one. I learned a LOT about how to farm for inscription specifically, it’s very different from farming for alchemy. As I leveled inscription, I made sure to make a variety of glyphs for each class when I was creating them for skill points. Then I started selling them at the AH.
Now, every single toon in the Beta has the opportunity to do exactly what I did. But they didn’t, so I was about the only dude with glyphs on the ah most of the time. Other people have been working on their inscription for weeks and were way ahead of me. It didn’t matter. I just know more about how to work a market, and I beat them all silly. I mean I crushed them, pwned them, Dominated.
When you really know how to work a market and not just sell stuff, it makes a big difference. We’ve been telling you for weeks to save up all your herbs for sale – the prices are going to be insane for them when inscription comes out – that’s still true, but don’t you dare sell a single herb. If you’ve never taken my advice, listen this one time, just this once. Send all those herbs to a level 70 toon and get ready to make some real gold. Big gold, huge gold, enormous/mountains/piles/heaps/avalanches of the stuff.
I started selling those glyphs I was making. They sold so fast I couldn’t believe it. So I made some more, marked up the prices and they sold even faster. I couldn’t keep up with the demand, not even close. So I marked up my prices again, and still didn’t have an auction end. In just four days. Let me repeat that, just 4 days I made so much gold I couldn’t carry any more.
There are some rumors that float around that are basically nearly impossible to confirm. There is supposed to be some sort of cap on how much gold you can carry on a single toon. Some crazy number that only a few of us know about. Well, I was opening up all those piles of gold in the beta and suddenly I couldn’t open them any more. I tried logging out – no help. Then I took a peek at my gold total, and there it was.
You feeling me now? When I tell you how to make gold, you already know that I know what I’m talking about. At least I hope you do. I will grant you that this was in the beta and everyone had some gold to throw around, but to hit the gold cap in just 4 days?
When we post things at DYS we mean business (even if that business is just fun stuff like the motorcycles). Lawbringer and the rest of our writers are good at what they do. You simply will not find another site that has a team of people that can give you better information on every aspect of the game.
If you only got one tip like this a YEAR it could make all the difference in the world to the way you play the game. Once a month and you could very well get a lot better. But we post articles every few days and every single one of them has to reach a high standard.
You may not always agree with everything we say. Every single article may not apply to what you like to do. But when we say we are experts we can back it up. The screenshot above is not a mock-up. I will actually mail one person on the Murmur Beta realm 100,000 gold to prove it. There is probably that much waiting for me in the mailbox anyway that I can’t even take out right now.
Now, I’m not saying you will every hit the gold cap on a live server, although I hear Lawbringer is making a serious run at it. But if I can hit 215,000+ gold on the test server in less than a week – you might want to consider listening to me when I talk about – well anything. It’s sort of like those old EF Hutton commercials. When Gavin talks, you should listen.
We are going to keep on posting the tips, tools and information you need to completely Dominate the next patch, the WotLK expansion, and beyond. In the next few days we have some really exciting tools for you – I just wanted you to understand when I say exciting – you should probably look at the word in a whole new light.
Stick with me, and take my tips as though they were worth 215,000 gold and I WILL help you learn to Dominate!
