I guess people's badge earning potential varies, but most of us can happily run a few heroics in a play session.<br /><br /> Added to that more people will be running heroics now to get their triumph badges for the daily quest, and I predict a lot of players spending badges on gems instead of paying what will likely be exorbitant prices.<br /><br /> I could be way off the mark here, but there has to be some balance point between the price of titanium ore (150 - 200g / stack) and obtaining epic gems by other means.<br /><br /> I am considering selling my titanium ore tonight in trade for 300 - 400 g / stack, and letting someone else take the prospecting gamble, while I will check the AH, buy one or two gem cuts with my stash of JC tokens, and then just buy-cut-sell my way to piles of gold in the next week or so.<br /><br /> What do you think???Zupahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08445341092509751446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926799573522803387.post-43917322106615922012009-08-04T08:37:31.473-07:002009-08-04T08:37:31.473-07:00Looking forward to following the experiment.

Also impatiently waiting to find out what nbr 2 ( in a futher post) will be!<br /><br />PerilunaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926799573522803387.post-24099069316928546862009-08-04T01:21:19.373-07:002009-08-04T01:21:19.373-07:00Hey Zupa, the gems I already have, since my JC als...Hey Zupa, the gems I already have, since my JC also farms saronite/cobalt.<br /><br />If I use the 100G to buy I'll do the following: <br />5stacks of saronite (since the price fell from a 16G to 12G at AH in light of the patch notes)<br />from those 5 stacks, i'll most likely prospect: about 5 blues, 20-40 green gems.<br />The blues, i craft and sell (certainly a RED one.. they are about 60G (32+ap) at my server)<br />the green's I sell raw. <br />The 5 blues alone give me aobut 10G+ each so even if i only sell those alone I can come out even. with the green ones, I make profit, If a Red gem drops i double my start money.<br /><br />But as said, I also "farm" while lvling which cuts down the price a lot.<br /><br />To do it just from buying/selling I would advice to download: lill sparky's workshop, it will let you see which cuts grant you the most money. <br /><br />Grtz<br />SethSeth.onecopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459158146078792311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926799573522803387.post-36438734742403951522009-08-04T01:12:37.420-07:002009-08-04T01:12:37.420-07:00sounds good!
Can we get a little bit more detail ...sounds good!<br /><br />Can we get a little bit more detail on how you are going to take 100 gold, buy (or prospect?) 20 gems and get 400% return using the three cuts you mentioned?<br /><br />The reason I ask is that I have been cutting gems for approximately 10g profit each, which doesn't seem like enough, certainly not enough to make 100k!Zupahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08445341092509751446noreply@blogger.com
