Hey everyone welcome back! In my last post I went over how gaining a max level (or many) profession is the firs step in making maximum gold. So for those of you who don’t yet have one, just got one, or have had a max level prof and just havent been making gold let’s get started on how to turn that frown upside down. The best thing you can do to identify what items to make for profit is to see what materials are readily available at a price that is less than the selling and AH cut (5%) then the product you plan to sell. For example lets say you want to make Ebonsteel Belt Buckle, which we will say sells for 222g. This product requires us to have 4 Volatile Earth that will cost us 3g 75s total, 4 Elementium Bars which cost us 16g total, and 4 Pyrium bars which cost us 44g total, that leaves us with a crafting price of 63.75 gold. At a sell price of 222g you can see that this item is well worth crafting in large amounts and will make you a decent profit. That is what you are looking for items that can be made substantially cheaper than they sell for. Normally these items are essential to max level characters, meaning its not your everyday green crafted item. The items you want to produce will give a raider or pvp’r who has greater gear a boost. (Leg armors, Best in slot enchants, potions, flasks, etc)
To make this process simpler we can use add-ons such as Auctioneer which will give us, after some time gathering accurate pricing data, a good idea of what an item is worth and what the material cost is. Also Trade Skill Master is a great add-on for this as well. It will look through your patterns and tell you based on the data you have collected from the AH how much an item will sell for and how much it costs to make. T.S.M will then make a Que for you which will tell you what materials you need to buy, how much they will cost, and how much profit can be made from selling all the products you have put into your que.
So with these few little tips go dip your toes into the crafting market and don’t be afraid to buy! On my Next post I will delve deeper into finding the items you want to buy, want to sell, and how to find them with the add-ons I listed above. Thanks for reading!
