Rl interferes again
Well it seems like the monster that is RL keeps interfering with wow. Im having to place my reactivated account with jeri on standby for a bit. This doesn't mean i wont play wow just means my stories of leveling jeri wont be happening once the account is deactivated. This sucks for me because im realy enjoying leveling my paladin, I plan to keep posting new gold making tips and making gold. Ill even begin leveln my druid healer and that pesky death knight that i've been letting rot away in dalarn. While I am saddend by this development life goes on and its not like i wont be enjoying wow. Ill just be playing it a different way with a character that has no history in the game. No new gold development for this week I'm plodding along doing the usual and trying to think of new ideas. Ill keep you guys updated on how things are going.

Changes of scenery are nice.
Recently Jeri has progressed to Grizzlyhills needless to say im loving it. I have been questing there for one day and qued as dps for dungeons. Its a nice change of scenery from the tundra and dragonblight stuff is actually green and looks natural. I have enjoyed the change and been doing the dailies for a upgraded libram. Which are scarce it will be the best one until i can get a triumph badge one. Jeri is currently level 74.5 and his skinning is 431 so its creating decent profits for the amount of time put into it. I finaly got some tank upgrades I made tempered saronite belt land legs they are nice and make me less squishy as a tank. I also have chest and boots crafted for when i ding 75.
As for gold making im seeing a slow return on the thorium prospecting. Currently im getting under cut on the gems. I am still able to sell a few though profit returns for this will be slow. SO when considering this investment dont put all your gold in it because the return is slow. I also sold several epic cut gems that i had bought so that bumped my gold total to 35k. I plan to make more belt buckles and have them prepared for tuesday. Thats when prices rise because more people get new gear on tuesday. I also am going to purchase more mats for crusade, and fiery. Im going to look into mongoose to see if its profitable it may not be.

30k reached. More gold Incoming tonight.
I checked my mail at lunch time. It contained some of my recent auction house endeavors a gain of 6k to 31k gold. I sold buckles, fiery enchant, crusader enchant, pets, simple gems, epic gems, titan steel bars that were fliped , and Netherweave bags has gotten me to this point. I diversified my markets and have a constant stream of incoming gold. Now i don't have to worry if i get undercut in one market because ill make up the gold in a different market.
I had over 267 auctions going last night. most Of them for over 10g - 4400g. The thing is everything on the Auction house is selling for profit. This is why my gold jumped from 25k to 31k in just a few hours. It seemed like my competition was stagnant people that just throw stuff on the AH and forget about it. No serious sellers were around to undercut. I even found out one of my friends was buying my vendor pets for a round 34g profit to me and - 74g for his bank. IT was funny because he walked up and showed me it and i was like wow. If you read my blog you would have gone to the vendor to get it.

thorium ore test
A few days ago I posted about how prospecting thorium seemed like a profitable method of making gold. While I am not the person to come up with the idea I felt i should share it with my readers. To demonstrate the profit for prospecting thorium ore i wanted to invest a decent sum of gold so i spent 1k gold on 32 stacks of thorium ore. The average cost per stack of thorium was 31.25g however each stacks varied in price from 30g-35g each. I placed these in the guild bank and my cousin was kind enough to prospect them free of charge. Below ill list the amount of gems gathered how much they sell for and the total gold that each gem type will sell for.
45 Azerothian Diamond x 13g each = 617g total
31 Huge Emerald x 16g each = 500g total
35 Blue Sapphire x 2g each = 70g total
28 Large Opal x 14g each = 415g total
18 Star Ruby x10g each = 182g total
1784g total - 1000g investment = 784g profit
For 20 minutes of work and an investment of 1k gold It seems that thorium ore prospecting will generate close to 800g profit. To me this seems like a great investment and will definitely be on my snatch list. The reason i suggest using this method is because thorium ore is a bottle neck in JC and will allow you to make great profit. By purchasing the ore you keep JC from getting it cheaply forcing them to buy your gems, mine their own ore, or invest in over priced thorium that will not always provide the gems they need to level.
There are some general notes i want to share with you on things to look out for. These gems fluctuate in price + or -10g at times try to take advantage of selling high. Don't be scared to wait for a bit for cheaper gems to sell if their not at the price point you want. Another thing that can be done with this market is the purchase of other peoples gems to flip. Don't try and monopolize but sometimes there may be 3-4 gems that would drop your price 4-5g. Why not purchase them and flip them up to the price you want make profit on them and sell your gems where you want. I would not however try and monopolize a market generally you will fail and loose allot of gold in the process. Well that's all my advice on thorium so get to prospecting and post your results in the comments.
2 post thursday.
Im frustrated with leveling Jeri. I hit 73 and finaly started running new instances. The spider dungeon is easy but Old Kingdom has been hell. Im taking massive damage and my luck at having decent heals has been fail. Blizzard realy didnt plan the lower level dungeon loot well. Should have full blue tank set by running early dungeons IMO. Instead we only get 1 ring drop and you dont even do thed ungeon until lvl 73.
Im going to look into the crafted blue tank set. Its better than nothing and will help my mitigation out. I also will probably invest in a few enchants i have extra mats and a enchanter. I hate feeling super squishy and thats what its like atm and thats why i may invest some gold in gear. Im probably going to take a dungeon break only do my daily then quest since the luck of the draw with players has stunk recently and i hear grizzly hills is fun. I've never been there so it will be new and thats always good.

Thorium ore prospecting
A while ago i read a tip that stated thorium ore gems sold well. I forgot where i read this but i did. so the idea is not my own but i did test it out. I purchased 2 stacks of thorium ore for around 70g. Then i had my cousin prospect them for the gems. Total i got around 9 gems that sold from 14g-20g each and 2 blue crystals which dont sell for crap around 1g if your lucky on my server.
This method seems like a promissing venture so what im going to do is set snatch to begin grabbing stacks of thorium ore at 35g or lower. I hope to give you an update tomorrow on how many stacks i can get and proper count on gems and what type of gems. After i do this ill have an accurate representation on how profitable this could be.
In other news I ran into an awful pug group for old kingdom. IT was going ok Or as my pugs usualy go with me topping meters and dps generally slacking imo. Then we reached the first boss that spawns guardians thats when the shit hit the fan. None of the dps killed the guardians and the boss stayed immune for way to long. Eventually we wiped after i blew all my cool downs and the healer self rezed I decided to ditch the group i have a low idiot tolerance and wast trying to finish up before class. I hate to say it but if i continue to get groups that fail that bad ill actually have to make a post dedicated to how bad it was.
