DRUM ROLL PLEASE

Welcome to Business as Usual, the weekly segment on all that glitters.

THIS JUST IN
This morning it was confirmed, I will be joining the talented staff at Warcraft Econ, it is indeed an honor to join their ranks. But what does this mean for SRSBUSINESS? Not much really, I will be doing my gold strategy posts on Warcraft Econ and referencing them here, from my weekly gold posts. Business as Usual will continue as a weekly gold report, where I will continue to talk about what’s been working for me on my home server: Bloodscalp.

I also intend to extend my library of gold making guides, considering the work I intend to do with the staff at Warcraft Econ has opened the flood gates of inspiration. I have a lot of ideas that I will be developing in the coming weeks, so expect to see some interesting things in the near future.

You can read the official announcement and my introduction to the Warcraft Econ audience here New Warcraft Econ Writer: Khaas.

MY OTHER STAFF WORK
I’ve been asked about Top Rosters by a couple of people recently, the site appears to be offline at the moment and has been less than active in recent weeks. I will be in touch with the owner about this, for my own part recent real life concerns put my work there on the back burner. I can only say at this time that I’m aware it hasn’t been updated much lately, I’m aware the site isn’t even online right now, and I’m looking into it.

THE BLOODSCALP REPORT
Bloodscalp threw a few curve balls this week, first there was the utter lack of prospectable ore on the market. The server hit a dry spell, I managed to make a few good moves (some incredibly good ones actually) but still this was the proverbial thorn in the lion’s paw for my enchanting business. Pets and Tailoring did well this week, seeing a few big money moves alongside the slow and steady pace of each individual market.

Truegold prices are also on the rise, as more patterns become available to rep grinders and raiders the demand has been steadily increasing. My stockpile of Truegold has been nipping away at that demand with great returns. The furnaces of the alchemist army are again warming up as a result.

The big shocker here though is gems, the bottom fell out of the market and even red cuts aren’t moving very effectively. I have decided to enact some new tactics to deal with the situation, which should lead to some serious money down the road.

THE MONEY SHOT
■ 1,000 – Pets
■ 16,000g – Scrolls
■ 1,000g – Gems & Metas
■ 1,000g – Tailored Goods
■ 21,000g – Truegold

40,000g – TOTAL

That’s all for this week, thanks for reading…
