seven :: Finger in the Jewelcrafting Pie, Friday Overview & Goal

As the title states, I finally decided to put a finger into the JC pie. I haven't really tried to mass sell any cuts since Wrath, and I wish I took part in the Obsidium Shuffle when the prices were rock bottom. Oh well. I take what I can get these days, and it's a fairly nice deal. There is definitely some stiff competition in this slice of the market and your ability to sell the gems is timing and a lot of luck if you can't stand at the auction house all day guarding your posts. A few times, mere seconds after posting, I have had someone buy the auction. Any lasting longer would usually be undercut well within 10 minutes. I took note of the top competitors and their posting times on TUJ and posted only after they have all logged off. Then I hop to bed and wake up the next morning with most of them were sold. Works great for me! Less stress at having to constantly cancel and repost.

There is a balance between selling gems and saving for possible uses for Epic transmute.

Next stop, enchanting scrolls with all the mats I've stocked up on DE'ing the jewelery I made. I don't think making glyphs would ever be an option for me this expansion. Maybe I will try it in MoP... maybe.... As for inscription, I wonder what the future of the Darkmoon trinkets will look like in Patch 4.3.

I am glad that I started this blog. I has allowed me to become more goal oriented and it is great for taking notes in a fun way. It has also brought me back to Photoshop, and I'm having tons of fun with that as well. In my raiding guild, there was recently a paid name change and I had the opportunity to make a new header for the guild site. I am rather proud of the work I did on it. Cheers to more in the future!


And as for that, I have hit my first Gold Goal - 100k gold! Now, my next would obviously be 200k. Let's see how far I can get before Patch 4.3 hits.

four :: A Look at Professions for Patch 4.3

Mining is boring. I don't really understand how come people can stand hours and hours of nothing but farming one thing. It truly brain numbing for me, even while watching videos. Now with about half the mats for blacksmithing checked off, I need to suck it up to finish the remaining ores. In the mean while, I've been reading up on the patch 4.3. Here are some of the items I want to compile:
