If you have a smartphone (android or iphone) you can download the Remote Auction House app for free and no monthly fees! Buy and sell from work, on the road, on the train, at your girlfriends, mother in laws, wherever!</div> <br /> <br /> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLQNK_lec0KZ2IjrfRaKxNkfFZG4Cdv74n-xHaH7n4S706TSFctp3t33uqPZvFxWQX2CllOBEYYGGP2-z5fA4veLzuHU_Ubad1v-aOOQKhwpKSuILDinmNgDuqbWTopYd72HQ2pMiX5SY/s1600/tiny+emerald+whelping.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="206" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLQNK_lec0KZ2IjrfRaKxNkfFZG4Cdv74n-xHaH7n4S706TSFctp3t33uqPZvFxWQX2CllOBEYYGGP2-z5fA4veLzuHU_Ubad1v-aOOQKhwpKSuILDinmNgDuqbWTopYd72HQ2pMiX5SY/s320/tiny+emerald+whelping.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Click on image to enlarge (and that isn't what she said)</td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /> Don't just limit yourself to any area within Great Deals....why? Example of today's purchase:<br /> <br /> *I am sure you can pick which one I snatched in this photo....hint.....it's Emerald<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> There are a few ways to&nbsp;distinguish&nbsp;which to buy....</div> <br /> 1.<u>Price vs. Mean</u> - This is current price versus the 'average' price on your server. Great for flipping items<br /> <br /> <br /> 2.<u>Price vs. Global</u> - This is great to know the 'value' of an item worldwide. This is good if you aren't completely sure the rarity overall of your item.<br /> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>UNUSUAL DEALS</u></b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <br /> Now, lets take a glance at Unusual Deals! This tab I am pumped about, and the first time visiting earlier today I snatched up a deal as well. I know this is a Hallow's End item, but for the time it takes to fly all over to get enough tokens, it's well worth my time....<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2twc_oC0bT5JwhTeveFbQBTRlTIciF0lNA-9R-4YctdMFCZCM2TqvmomxtnJpPDZ0ZaukjbFWxOayrEj-1o4MlNFjcST_m9_ZXBemteiq6Aey5jEyENhjFrSbzPd_OmXFR0I4jUodf9E/s1600/feline+familiar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="62" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2twc_oC0bT5JwhTeveFbQBTRlTIciF0lNA-9R-4YctdMFCZCM2TqvmomxtnJpPDZ0ZaukjbFWxOayrEj-1o4MlNFjcST_m9_ZXBemteiq6Aey5jEyENhjFrSbzPd_OmXFR0I4jUodf9E/s400/feline+familiar.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> Using a similar formula as what I stated above, I grabbed this item up due to the Global Median page. Nearly 5 times the price on my server.....however this one isn't going up for sale as I will be learning it upon login. It's a cool pet that I have wanted, just never wanted to invest the time to get it. Time IS money, friend!</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: red;">*If you are using this to flip items, it's also a good idea to use Global Median to price for resale</span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> So now, all you have to do is go to The Undermine Journal, use the steps above, log into your phone app, and buy up whatcha see!</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Now after you snatch a few things up, holler back and let me know what you find!</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Alto.</div> <br /> <br /> <br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913608024919420216.post-48621591359528667832012-10-19T14:36:00.000-05:002012-10-19T14:36:12.972-05:00MoP Pet Battles- Addons, Macros, Battle Tamers, Rares, Guides and Powerleving<div style="text-align: center;"> If you are getting the 'bug' for Pet Battles, then I am confident that you are also trying to get some of the more rare Pets that are out there. Good! So am I!</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The feedback I am getting so far is pet battles are a good time waster and a nice getaway from the usual gold grind, rep grind, leveling grind, etc, etc, etc....And for this, I agree. I never played pokemon, or really any other 'battle' style game similar to this, and my only disappointment with this is not being able to sell our "captured" pets on the AH. Yet. So I am currently stockpiling 'wild' rares and holding onto them. Blizzard states they have a metric shitton (okay, not quoting here, but that's the gist) of pet battle changes coming in later patches... =)</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> So this post is directed at everyone that is looking for the best information on pets on the web.

If you happen to have Herbalism as well on your farmer (of course you do!), then you will have a near shitton of <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=79010/snow-lily" target="_blank">Snow Lily</a> with the occasional <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=72238/golden-lotus" target="_blank">Golden Lotus</a> (the buff rarely leaves me here, so that should give you an idea of how quickly they spawn in this cave).<br /> <br /> And make sure to get your <a href="http://altosgoldishadvise.blogspot.com/2012/10/mist-piercing-goggles-foragers-gloves.html" target="_blank">Mist-Piercing Goggles</a> too! With so many nodes in here of both herbs and ore, a few extra never hurt anyone!<br /> <br /> Due to the rate of respawn, this has to be fixed extremely soon. So my advice?

The reason I spoke above about the multiple caves (top tier, not this one) is a very popular spot for bots/questing. It seems as of the last couple days, bots have not made it into this cave....yet. After they read this post though, I am sure you will see them pop up there.<br /> <br /> Long story short, the mobs give good XP. With the Golden Lotus buff, you can get satchels that give decent drops, but if you are more worried about mass-farming mats, leave the Yeti's with a bit of loot on them, as they respawn slower.<br /> <br /> If you are still reading this, WHY? Get on your Gathering toon and get to work!<br /> <br /> Alto.<br /> <br /> <span style="color: red;">UPDATE: Faid posted a video of a similar area in Kun-Lai farming for <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=89112/mote-of-harmony" target="_blank">Motes of Harmony</a> which can be viewed on her YouTube page:&nbsp;</span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/goclockworkriot?feature=watch" target="_blank">GoClockworkRiot:</a></span><br /> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/goclockworkriot?feature=watch">https://www.youtube.com/user/goclockworkriot?feature=watch</a><br /> <br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wArZjL7ZMG8" width="560"></iframe> <br /> <br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913608024919420216.post-71232883873337689422012-10-10T07:33:00.003-05:002012-10-10T07:33:31.710-05:00Mist Piercing Goggles- Forager's Gloves- Must have Gear for Herbalism and Mining in Pandaria<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsmFUO6hnSfzkA-tQ4v5-t8E8_4oSIfieU_41fEXcoVqsgFyiJfOkG9zCMfXgS-4ORLrzl4-2Sif3vIMikyn3awwk14dcAu3m6Nf89IJrkxIvxmPOQzC7ZEt1bL9Eb4fUVTWDj3L8SEig/s1600/MistPiercingGoggles.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsmFUO6hnSfzkA-tQ4v5-t8E8_4oSIfieU_41fEXcoVqsgFyiJfOkG9zCMfXgS-4ORLrzl4-2Sif3vIMikyn3awwk14dcAu3m6Nf89IJrkxIvxmPOQzC7ZEt1bL9Eb4fUVTWDj3L8SEig/s320/MistPiercingGoggles.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=87213/mist-piercing-goggles" target="_blank">Mist Piercing Goggles</a>, taught by a <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=87753" target="_blank">schematic</a> for engineers (using 8 <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=77467" target="_blank">Ghost Iron Bolts</a> and 2 <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=76061" target="_blank">Spirits of Harmony</a>) is one of the must have items for farming in Pandaria. Why you ask? For a small investment off the AH (or by crafting your own) you can get extra nodes from both Herbs and Ore.

Currently, I see no option to buy it now, however if there is something in the AH you really want, you might just toss the highest bid you can afford (up to 999,999g).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> With the latter option, you are more than sure you will get said item. =)<br /> <br /> The ones that I see as major purchases are from the TGC set and the Mounts (of course). You will want to keep tabs on the AH, as items have changed within 24 hours (although I am guessing some are set at 48h. No way to tell yet until further info is out there.<br /> <br /> I will be checking this daily and will update my findings asap.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <ul class="last" style="background-color: #1b1b1b;

Level fast. But the reasons for this is twofold- getting in and out of Jade Forest as quick as possible ahead of the massive influx of players, and to be able to fly to farm nodes.<br /> <br /> <br /> What is my TLDR plan? Simple:<br /> <br /> <br /> 85-86 3-4 hours'ish in <a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=5785" target="_blank">Jade</a>/Dungeons<br /> 86-87 4-5/6 hours in <a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=6134" target="_blank">Krasarang Wilds</a><br /> 87-88 4-5/6 hours in <a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=5841" target="_blank">Kun-Lai Summit</a><br /> 88-89 5-6/7 hours in&nbsp;<a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=5842" target="_blank">Towlong Steps</a><br /> 90 - <a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=6138" target="_blank">Dread Waste</a> farming/Checking nodes/farming finds (best locations found thus far) Reputation Runs for Jade Serpents.<br /> <br /> <br /> <b><i><u>1. Mining and Herbing gives us XP-</u></i></b> So pick up anything and everything that you can along the way- set hearthstone so that every few hour of playtime, you post new items/gear/whatnot on the AH (at&nbsp;ridiculous&nbsp;prices I might add).<br /> <br /> <span style="color: red;">*DO NOT- sit at the AH and search to see new gears. Yes you! Anytime on any and every xpac, this is a common occurance. If your goal is to get to 90 quickly, do not farm the AH, farm the new areas instead. People will be paying outrageous prices for the first few days on nearly all items (my set prices will be fluctuating from 20-25K for greens, and 75-100K for blues- just an example)</span><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid4V6BCbDRDxzbJhidAsoO0w-beGG0mKBr9qE4Yt36oq2BeYqPr5yrZhxJLtDdLd3xbpNHKccpSdXRgPnAPF9uilfBqYTI1PH1DtsfZhmpwXAu0kDgFP8oWxk6ydFIWgcLlEbzFu4MYLo/s1600/elvinelol.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="162" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid4V6BCbDRDxzbJhidAsoO0w-beGG0mKBr9qE4Yt36oq2BeYqPr5yrZhxJLtDdLd3xbpNHKccpSdXRgPnAPF9uilfBqYTI1PH1DtsfZhmpwXAu0kDgFP8oWxk6ydFIWgcLlEbzFu4MYLo/s320/elvinelol.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <b><i><u>2. 25 Quest turnins at login</u></i></b> will give you an instant 15'ish% start on the competition (Thanks <a href="https://twitter.com/Elvinelol" target="_blank">@elvinelol</a> on twitter!). There are quite a few folks I know that are prepped with <a href="http://www.icy-veins.com/firelands-daily-quests-wow" target="_blank">Molten Front</a> dailies just for this reason.<br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="color: red;">*The drawback here is the xpac difference. Both in mob xp, and QUEST XP. When Cata hit, folks kept dailies to turnin at launch, and were extremely dissappointed with the xp value. A bit over an hour with new quest XP versus a bit over an hour with new quest XP was nearly doubled back then. Will the same happen this time? Who knows really, but I will probably not be the one that will find out.....</span><br /> <br /> <br /> <b><i><u>3. 'Speed Run Dungeons'</u></i></b>. I will be queue'ing (guilding as well) up Dungeons on attempt to avoid the Jade forest as much as humanly possible. In the meantime of Dungeon runs, I will be farming and doing small questlines in the Jade area (or just farming herbs/ore). I have heard that it is anywhere from 7-12% xp per 5 man run, and at about 40 minutes per, we are looking at 4 hours of dungeons to get from 85-86.<br /> <br /> <span style="color: red;">*With this scenario, within the first 3-4 hours of playing I am expecting to go from 85-86 and be able to get to </span><a href="http://mop.wowhead.com/zone=6134/krasarang-wilds#quests" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Krasarang Wilds and smash out the questlines</span></a><span style="color: red;"> there...all the while in queue and picking up all the ores and herbs in my path.</span><br /> <span style="color: red;"><br /></span> <b><i><u>4. GET IN A LEVEL 25 GUILD IF YOU HAVEN"T ALREADY</u></i></b>- This is a huge step. 10% xp perk is massive. Getcha gettin' on!<br /> <br /> 5. Pre Stock up on food/water NOW! Most of the NPC's are already carrying Pandaria-esque foodstuffs, so rock a few stacks of each now, and every hour'ish that you hearth back to town, make sure to grab more. You will thank me later....<br /> <br /> <br /> So that is it in a nutshell. Short and sweet. Although I will still probably stray away from every aspect of my current plan (as I have to factor in posting updates for ya'll, twitter time, daughter time, work, etc.....) this is my current setup for preparing for mists. Of course, my goldmaking will end up&nbsp;outweighing my quest to cap to server first 90, but my planning will still be the same. Since you have to be level 90 to fly in Pandaland, this is my utmost goal in game, but....gold is, and always will be, my #1 priority. =)<br /> <br /> <br /> If you feel I left something out (I am sure I have), don't hesitate to holler. If you have a totally different gameplan, what is it?

Although it seems the gold making aspect would be a fun gig (multiple opportunities), I have found I have little time to even attempt to start a new game. So why am I posting about it?<br /> <br /> This post is directly in response to a few emails that I have been receiving, one of which stood out a bit more than the others on GW2. It was from a reader that was asking me about my views if a certain GW2 guide was a scam or not. With a bit of research and previous experience in reviewing guides, I gave another option:<br /> <br /> There are plenty of sites in any gaming niche that are better than most *paid* guides anyways, with very few exceptions. But that is another post. For now, lets get to the gooey center....GuildWars2.<br /> <br /> Since I haven't played the game thoroughly, just a bit over at my bud's house, you probably won't see another post on GuildWars2 unless I actually get into the game, however I will cover some great informative sites for you GW2 goodness. I hope these will help you in your quest for virtual goldies....<br /> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> ------------------------------------------------------------- </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOJyFKk7SLd41jIdSJkrJ-_ajpAxRS1rO1xQw4IA3EOAX0x9yr7Gb0LKqYyU3cgQgvnbVxw4OrIvoXcGOfq2RaT33mG6VcCfeFUGZd8lgTQGjYCEy0eI6zXMUsOhKceMTyKm_w2noUnBU/s1600/crafting.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOJyFKk7SLd41jIdSJkrJ-_ajpAxRS1rO1xQw4IA3EOAX0x9yr7Gb0LKqYyU3cgQgvnbVxw4OrIvoXcGOfq2RaT33mG6VcCfeFUGZd8lgTQGjYCEy0eI6zXMUsOhKceMTyKm_w2noUnBU/s320/crafting.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: #0000ee; text-decoration: underline;">http://www.guildwars2crafting.net/</span> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Here is one of my favorites.

Here's the fix!<br /> <span style="color: red;">EDIT: After finding out that there could be a problem with this post, it was shut down.

A WoW based cursor.....<br /> <br /> I just received an email from a reader that added a kinda cool little snippet to the site. As always, I am sharing this tidbit. If you can't see it right off (you might be reading this from your phone), look at your mouse cursor. Ta-da!<br /> <br /> Alright, steps.<br /> <br /> STEP 1: Pick your cursor and copy your code (images at the bottom of post)<br /> <br /> STEP 2: Go to -Template, Edit HTML (steps may vary, this is for blogger platforms)<br /> <br /> STEP 3: When you are in HTML code, hit Ctrl +F to find &lt;/head&gt;<br /> <br /> STEP 4: When you find that spot, just before it, add the code below for your new cursor (cut and paste)<br /> <br /> STEP 5: Click the box with "Expand Widgets"<br /> <br /> STEP 6: Save and refresh your screen!

First off, congratulations! I would&nbsp;recommend&nbsp;you talk with a tax professional first, or even speak with your parent/accounting professor/tax advisor. I am none of the above, but I can explain a bit of what I know with ebay/internet website laws here in the US (which, if you use paypal, is expected taxes in most countries via virtual goods and import/export laws).<br /> <br /> At the end of the fiscal year, PayPal will report your 'payments' or records of monies 'made' in a tax form, 1099-K (or 1099-MISC). You should receive this at your PayPal account address by February of the next year (in this case, 2013).<br /> <a href="http://www.irs.gov/businesses/article/0,,id=251966,00.html">http://www.irs.gov/businesses/article/0,,id=251966,00.html</a> <br /> <br /> This is where it gets confusing, as I stated above, you need to see a tax&nbsp;professional.<br /> <br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;If you have made over $20,000USD and over 200 transactions, you are required to be taxed on this income.<br /> <a href="http://www.irs.gov/businesses/article/0,,id=251966,00.html">http://www.irs.gov/businesses/article/0,,id=251966,00.html</a> <br /> <br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I can only assume that Capital Gains would fall into currency exchanges for overseas transactions. These are taxable in most countries.<br /> <a href="http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=130524,00.html">http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=130524,00.html</a> <br /> <br /> Now if you have made over this $20,000USD, then you can/should incorporate as a business (even a LLC would be better....). This way, your 'business expenses' such as your computer/upgrades, internet fees, computer desk, streaming fees, youtube costs, computer chair(s), pens, pencils, paper, even food expenses (with receipt from a restaurant-if you talked 'business' with someone) can be wrote off as a business expense. Even the gas/fuel used to go purchase D3 can be used, and don't forget about your schooling costs, if they pertain to your business (online classes as well).<br /> <br /> You can find more through the IRS website on Small Businesses here:<br /> <a href="http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/industries/article/0,,id=202939,00.html">http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/industries/article/0,,id=202939,00.html</a> <br /> <br /> Once again, I have to state that I am not an Accountant, so take this info with a grain of salt. Last year I did claim internet/virtual good sales on my taxes, and I will this year as well. My best advice? Hire someone that knows these laws in and out. They will be able to advise you better on your specific situation.<br /> <br /> Best of luck,<br /> Alto.<br /> <br /> P.S. There might be someone that reads this who has more information specific to overseas transactions, maybe they can comment and help out!

Now copy the character you would like to mirror (play on test)<br /> <br /> 2. While that is processing (a few minutes to an hour max), you will want to download the PTR:<br /> <br /> <a href="https://us.battle.net/account/management/download/">https://us.battle.net/account/management/download/</a> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7gPqZGSE0rvZ2SuwFOUFSDOyau9lJdv56p_TiAdDqdlqwkOk_MU5AJapNh1VgQgSpXB_vJzwDZefkFBoMoHFDaeK9nGLefI0Atjj9rwb1Yiy5a3hrX27e2x9AJ6LuGVsxec3ZEiKbI3Y/s1600/Account+Public+Test+Realm+Download.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="196" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7gPqZGSE0rvZ2SuwFOUFSDOyau9lJdv56p_TiAdDqdlqwkOk_MU5AJapNh1VgQgSpXB_vJzwDZefkFBoMoHFDaeK9nGLefI0Atjj9rwb1Yiy5a3hrX27e2x9AJ6LuGVsxec3ZEiKbI3Y/s320/Account+Public+Test+Realm+Download.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 3.

Blizz just posted some incoming changes (that most of us have seen on Beta). What does this mean? Mists of Pandaria is nearing it's release date (once the PTR is live, you can figure a few weeks to a month), then announcement of Final Release Date, which should be approximately 2-3 months- Still gaining momentum, my guess is still late Q3 or Q4 (Sept-late Nov) date.<br /> <br /> <span style="color: red;">*<a href="http://altosgoldishadvise.blogspot.com/2012/07/how-do-you-download-wow-ptr-504.html?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=twitter&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+AltosGoldishAdvice+%28Altos+Gold%22ish%22+Advice%29" target="_blank">For tips on how to download and Setup PTR</a></span><br /> <br /> There is also word that those who have access to beta will NOT be able to log in to &nbsp;Public Test Realm, however that is just hear-say, nothing in stone.

For the few thousand of you that will read this post, how many will/can contribute? I hope all of you do your part, but sadly, some people won't. Don't be that person.<br /> <br /> I do not ask much from my loyal readers, but I am asking now. It doesn't cost anything, only a minute or two of your time. Read the forum post and go from there. I did a copy and paste of the steps Sapu posted below as well.<br /> <br /> If you are on US forums:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/6036615300">http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/6036615300</a> <br /> <br /> If you are on EU forums:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/4903531097">http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/4903531097</a> <br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Next time you run a get-all scan, do this PLEASE! (copied from the forums for ease). These are the steps, you can do this quite easily with the steps provided. After doing this, please go to your [US or EU] forum page and post your findings!</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">----- &nbsp; &nbsp; ----- &nbsp; &nbsp; ----- &nbsp; &nbsp; ----- &nbsp; &nbsp; ----- &nbsp; &nbsp; -----</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;">If anybody is on a server which is currently affected by this bug, I'd be interested in knowing how many auctions GetAll scans return for you vs the number of auctions on your auction house. To find this out:</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">1) In the default browse tab, clear all filters and do an empty search. Type /dump GetNumAuctionItems("list") and look at the second return value (ie the number after "[2]="). Alternatively, scroll down to the bottom of the results and look at the total there (should be the same).</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">2) Start a GetAll scan with your favorite addon or type /run QueryAuctionItems("", "", "", nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, true) to start one manually. Once the GetAll scan data is fetched from the server, look at the first return value of /dump GetNumAuctionItems("list").</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">3) Post the results of steps 1 and 2 here.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Thanks :)</span><br /> <br /> <br /> *If you are worried about posting on the forums under your battletag for whatever reason, please follow the directions and post in comments or toss me an email with the info.

And a nice change of scenery when you get bored of other areas.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913608024919420216.post-73794445111664854832012-07-03T12:43:00.000-05:002012-07-03T12:45:24.845-05:00Maxed Item Stats Info Diablo 3- What's It Worth?<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgasuBESi7aVjwnHtnXbLA4O-b4eYDC2XfwoUQsFcqXHNCAeSf6fUfASr4pWuWSOOvB1A-vGyeWbEPy1UaampDlUWqzOiDWatZUtLdFzRZiu6xGtU8aDngMlIGWC0DxUWyyLxzuabTTrIw/s1600/d3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgasuBESi7aVjwnHtnXbLA4O-b4eYDC2XfwoUQsFcqXHNCAeSf6fUfASr4pWuWSOOvB1A-vGyeWbEPy1UaampDlUWqzOiDWatZUtLdFzRZiu6xGtU8aDngMlIGWC0DxUWyyLxzuabTTrIw/s1600/d3.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> "How do I price X item" "What is this item worth" "How do you price your RMAH items versus GAH (gold auction house)" and "What stats do you look for to flip items?".<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I have received emails, comments, DM's and overall questions similar to those above. To give an all out post on how and why I do what I do would take building a guide to explain. And I don't plan on doing that ATM. But what this post entails is a brief summary of what I look for and how I price my items.<br /> <br /> To make the most money (be it gold or RMAH) in Diablo III, you need to be the best priced on the best gear that is for sale. Well, duh.<br /> <br /> What I mean by that is to be highly successful, you need to sell the best of the best. Below, you will see a few charts showing the top stats for gear. If you aren't even 50% of that, you are talking nickles and dimes (10's to 100's of thousands, not millions- or no sales on RMAH vs 10-100$ sales).<br /> <br /> When I am searching the AH for flips, or even farming NV stacks for loot, I have a few rule(s) of thumb for posting items:<br /> <br /> ----It's gotta be yellow. Rare. Gotta have other stats that are worthy, albeit small (&gt;50)<br /> <br /> ----If there isn't two main 100+ stats on gear, I don't bother.<br /> <br /> ----If there isn't a 200+ primary and +resist all, pass on it.<br /> <br /> ----If it's blue, with two good stats (above formula), I sell. If not, blues are discharged.<br /> <br /> ----If it's "top tier" (below charts) with GF or MF single, maybe. If decent GF and MF with stats? That was my highest sale so far, 112$ in pocket.<br /> <br /> These are a few starters to get you thinking. Sure, they might be opposite of what you do, and you have sales. Or they might be exact to what you do, and you aren't getting sales. Like I mentioned above, to squeeze knowledge into one post is tough, so they are a bit generic. If I get specific questions though, I will do my best to answer them for you...<br /> <br /> Now for a few examples:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAjl96kEmVlHy2ttF-2qVMsTSJM2tSFmjtTe2bd0dSCZGjStaZ-hIxSKYca5OI21U_FwDKUhIDcapCch6jVTV8ygPICfFQox1Kou9eFYVzbVP0yeJB2PXeC2l9tTE4-ilREB-aZF-P11o/s1600/100+plus+stats.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAjl96kEmVlHy2ttF-2qVMsTSJM2tSFmjtTe2bd0dSCZGjStaZ-hIxSKYca5OI21U_FwDKUhIDcapCch6jVTV8ygPICfFQox1Kou9eFYVzbVP0yeJB2PXeC2l9tTE4-ilREB-aZF-P11o/s1600/100+plus+stats.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> Here you have a good item. It beats my 100+ two main stats (172 dex and 165 Vit), plus it has movement speed. Definitely worthy of RMAH. Although I would only post around 10$ (give or take the competition on similar gear), this would easily fetch 5-6mil currently on GAH. All this item is missing is +resist all, which would multiply my selling price by 10. Sexy item.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUkJ2-Mek-zY2JzzEb_0pgeFFM5ps9ksuKvH-LkJJHaTRfG5FRBclpp4hzZbDNhfQIPCXIzmCgAJOWChMjUa11ldmfLBX9l3CIA7wp_KR-0nSYn0DARWmyzxSXFX0JEWx7qflJ7CRNF_Q/s1600/hand+prowess.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUkJ2-Mek-zY2JzzEb_0pgeFFM5ps9ksuKvH-LkJJHaTRfG5FRBclpp4hzZbDNhfQIPCXIzmCgAJOWChMjUa11ldmfLBX9l3CIA7wp_KR-0nSYn0DARWmyzxSXFX0JEWx7qflJ7CRNF_Q/s1600/hand+prowess.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> Here we have a 140 plus in two main categories, a crit bonus (big selling point for barbs with the other stats), and a lvl requirement. Sure stats look good right off, However once again, +resist all is key for big money. This item is sure to get 500K for a short sale (fast), but currently would sell for 1-2mil over a few posts. Flirtable item, but not tops or bis.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijNer0j9XLjURdbEl5GVtNdF-l5G_CC6H6tAq1UkbCf5ZxrLtZSt1SteqjZoo8cmjtvvbXdVNvDFzwH-CKuqJHszxH7buHIyKoaTab4EvZj5npBRTxt7b7Ap8CostRm13y3xJHPuyT0-s/s1600/final+tendrils.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijNer0j9XLjURdbEl5GVtNdF-l5G_CC6H6tAq1UkbCf5ZxrLtZSt1SteqjZoo8cmjtvvbXdVNvDFzwH-CKuqJHszxH7buHIyKoaTab4EvZj5npBRTxt7b7Ap8CostRm13y3xJHPuyT0-s/s320/final+tendrils.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> Here is an exception. Although the 100+ rule doesn't apply, we have decent str, a near perfect +70 resist all (see chart, +80 is max), crit damage and crit chance. Great set of paws here. 5-10mil on GAH, around 10-20$ on RMAH. This is a great example of +resist all. This is a common item (maybe 100K) without resist. With it? Killer monies.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> You might notice when I am comparing GAH vs. RMAH, the conversion is around 2 dollars per million. You also might recall the last time you saw gold seller spam in general chat. Yup, that's correct. They are the current "marketers" of pricing, whether I like it or not, the conversion seems to follow the prices they are selling for. /shrug. Who knew? Gold sellers affect the economy in an economy based game? Anyways.....<br /> <br /> You got my "gotta have" stats to sell, you have a few examples, and now here are the charts I spoke about above.

Sure you don't. Of course you can roll with farming Act 1 over and over and get your junk items with a slow "rng" and maybe, just maybe get one decent drop per hour, or you can do quick farms of a dual location, get nearly the same loot table, and not run around for two hours....just a quick 10 minute run at a time.<br /> <br /> <br /> My favorite farm at the moment is a slight adjustment of this video:<br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/cloy8HLT8e4" width="560"></iframe> <br /> <br /> <br /> Here is the steps for this quick run:<br /> <br /> Act II- Blood and Sand<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMXapAO9l657O0mG0NtLM71x2YbPqKREtlkxro8Bu3Q336Xlr9XVmAyF4mPes0b0r5D0wBOE5Gs-Jh92DOq4ooen5qVnHBiSj3Vw4ujGg9QK2PbXgfrd8tz_8ishkeZWSbSsBcxStQtSA/s1600/path+to+the+oasis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMXapAO9l657O0mG0NtLM71x2YbPqKREtlkxro8Bu3Q336Xlr9XVmAyF4mPes0b0r5D0wBOE5Gs-Jh92DOq4ooen5qVnHBiSj3Vw4ujGg9QK2PbXgfrd8tz_8ishkeZWSbSsBcxStQtSA/s320/path+to+the+oasis.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /> Start with "Path to the Oasis"<br /> See the little pothole to the left? Yeah. That's the "Ruined Cistern" cave. Go there. Inside, you will see two to three sets of champions as well as about a 30% or so chance of a treasure goblin inside. Boom, Bam, Done. Knock them out, only takes about 5 minutes.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Now, Hit up what the video shows with the "Road to Alcarnus" and getcha another Goblin. Boom, Bam, Done. What's that? You didn't watch the video? Okay. Take the waypoint, clear out the tiny little circle of mobs around the little blue circle, and if you don't see a Goblin, logout, rinse/repeat.<br /> <br /> That's the farm route. A couple Vapor stacks and two goblins (well, most runs I get one, and I would say about one in three will get you both). Make sure you are looking out for fortune shrines as they give a little boost to drops, and depending on your DPS and gearing/toon, you might be able to run this route in full Magic Find Gear and rock the house....Auction House that is.<br /> <br /> Sure, you can run around and farm up 5 stacks, hit champ packs over and over for hours on end, or do this run in less than 10 minutes. Time is money friend, and using this little farm, you need less time to getcha goldies!<br /> <br /> Alto.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913608024919420216.post-20459637595166480192012-06-19T09:51:00.001-05:002012-06-19T10:30:07.836-05:00Diablo Patch 1.0.3 - IAS Change and Inferno ilvl'sWith D3's new patch launching today, here are a couple main topics that I am betting on to maximize my RMAH sales, Increased Attack Speed change and ilvl farming/pricing items differently than pre patch. As with any patch/change/nerf/hotfix, there are many, many possibilities to profit, and this post covers a few. Enough jibber jabber, here you go:<br /> <br /> Full Patch Notes can be seen at:&nbsp;<a href="http://d3db.com/news/id/271-official-10310057-patch-notes/">http://d3db.com/news/id/271-official-10310057-patch-notes/</a><br /> <br /> <i><u>Changes to Increased Attack Speed:</u></i><br /> <br /> <i><b></b></i> Upon reading the "nerf" patch notes, a few things popped out, but not as much for the "salesman" as IAS. It is getting "fixed", supposedly decreasing its' power. Well, that is how the blues note it....but here's the kicker....they are not adjusting the quivers (which I have already stocked up a few decent ones), so keep that in mind with the new pricing (or your "flipping" items).<br /> <br /> There is alot of slam and chat about selling off the gears with IAS stats, so I will be on a quick search when servers come up and also throughout the weekend to snatch up some good deals. <b><i><u>My personal feeling is that if they are to adjust the gear #'s, they will only be able to do so on "new" items, so those items with the 2.1-2.6 speed you have now will be safe.....new items might be topping out at 1.1-1.6</u></i></b>. Sure, this assumption could be totally wrong, and the nerf could come about in some other way, but really....how can you nerf a percentage without changing it all together? It's kinda like brushing your teeth with oreo's. Kinda defeats the purpose....<br /> <br /> <b><i><u>ilvl Drop Changes</u></i></b><br /> <br /> I wasn't sure how to title this one, so bear with me, because I have an influx of information for you. First, Blizz has decided that since the whole Diablo series is about "farming" and not gameplay (as opposed to the ever evolving WoW expansions), and all the QQ'ing on the forums (it's not easy, derp herp derpity doo), they gave us a list of what the RNG (random number generator- i.e. estimated droprates) are going to be set in the patch:<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYOwtMSaGysaX6T24UEdSLa-qLq8oXazqO9PO6jxga1itNnXsZ4pY3IuQ5QmdwRjTwFCq5eDmVPFzbWGFMLUxfZCUtk2oELnO6oKwie7F-rxPy88hRbHQPHgKyZ6N47rwA93VrNu1BeU8/s1600/Farming+information.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYOwtMSaGysaX6T24UEdSLa-qLq8oXazqO9PO6jxga1itNnXsZ4pY3IuQ5QmdwRjTwFCq5eDmVPFzbWGFMLUxfZCUtk2oELnO6oKwie7F-rxPy88hRbHQPHgKyZ6N47rwA93VrNu1BeU8/s400/Farming+information.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> What this shows me is more competition on "end game" gear, as farming at lower levels will produce better and more consistent gears...&nbsp;</div> <br /> Ok, okay. Now you are wondering about ilvl's. Well, Blizz noted that this would be added in a future patch (in some sort of tooltip), but if it doesn't happen today, here's a quick list (obviously, this is geared toward end game items). Sure, you can go to the&nbsp;<a href="http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/">http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/</a>&nbsp;website, look everything up, or you can just view these (<i>spreadsheet found on the internets, not sure of it's location, so I cannot take credit for it's work or errors that might be within</i>):<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqlaJ7erER59AKMmY5C9C_iqbKueBCDXsLsibVwHYKbI6J0VoDeH4lYHnbM4ExrxGAhYai0NoJUGS9gyvZu39t4E6qF-fLxZzHAMVSqwKxYe38Mq6w9C3KNHlETu0-OZVGwxg-ERZQs48/s1600/ilvl+items.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqlaJ7erER59AKMmY5C9C_iqbKueBCDXsLsibVwHYKbI6J0VoDeH4lYHnbM4ExrxGAhYai0NoJUGS9gyvZu39t4E6qF-fLxZzHAMVSqwKxYe38Mq6w9C3KNHlETu0-OZVGwxg-ERZQs48/s400/ilvl+items.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFK5Bitmna-BjlIkAfLA8CKdbjXyAvXcAiAzD3aVQb6gJgFvDDEeoPTnnj4bb_tT_WfdDoO_zjUN5TeMcyiKFRoYD7hpJNWMwVVpGYdzUsoEdh6pbr96L8QtCSUk1c0Tmm1JSAzfunPls/s1600/ilvl+weapons.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="390" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFK5Bitmna-BjlIkAfLA8CKdbjXyAvXcAiAzD3aVQb6gJgFvDDEeoPTnnj4bb_tT_WfdDoO_zjUN5TeMcyiKFRoYD7hpJNWMwVVpGYdzUsoEdh6pbr96L8QtCSUk1c0Tmm1JSAzfunPls/s400/ilvl+weapons.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> As for pricing this gear, it's not as easy as <i><b>"I list all ilvl 61's at 400K, 62's at 1-3mil, and 63's at 5-10mil"</b></i>. However, that can be a safe bet, believe it or not. Since there are literally thousands of different items and setups that occur on a strictly random basis (RNG), it's all about stats, baby.<br /> <br /> The best way I have figured to find my price-points is to do a<b> <i>top three stats</i></b> on your gear search and post accordingly. Sure, some say <i><b>undercut heavy (by 25-50%) and make more sales</b></i> or <b><i>undercut slightly and it will still sell, just give it time</i></b>....and really, it's up to you to decide. Both situations work, it's up to you and the [unknown] buyer that defines which is best.<br /> <br /> I am hoping to post a bit more consistently, however it will only be on D3 until WoW gets more love in the upcoming xpac.<br /> <br /> To answer other questions: My main is a Barbarian. No, I haven't killed Diablo Inferno (Seige on two death farm). Yes, I farm pony level (hell) and Act 1/2. Yes, I have sold items on RMAH (only 61$ so far, averaging 3-4$ per sale). No, I do not sit on the AH like I did in WoW, I actually enjoy the game. And no, I have not paid more than 500K for any item bought off the gold auction house and I am still decently geared (but not where I want to be). And last but not least:<br /> <br /> I am not a Diablo III guru. I am a former WoW AH "pro" and still working on figuring out who/what/when/where and why D3 seems to be so appealing to me on so many levels....<br /> <br /> Till next time,<br /> <br /> Alto.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913608024919420216.post-56393455377368537682012-06-07T19:53:00.001-05:002012-06-07T19:54:39.792-05:00WTB & WTS Waypoints in Diablo 3? How About Getting it Free?Sure, you can buy and sell waypoints (Inferno Acts specifically) in D3, and there are plenty of threads in all kinds of forums trying to sell for 20K, 50K, 100K, etc.<br /> <br /> For the noob, thats all and good. Had I known this last week, I wouldn't have wasted 50K on one of my toons....oh well. Since it's still legit after the patch this week, I thought I would do a quick post for those that weren't aware of this!<br /> <br /> However, if you are a lowbie running in Hell gear, here's a way to get to some of the well known spots out there without the death and decay grind through the Inferno questline.<br /> <br /> But say you want to farm a nice friendly little spot in Inferno, Act 2 for the little treasure goblins.....
