Arena - 1850 Weapon exploit

[tekstorm]

I read this on another forum so I do not take credit for this. I'm just passing this along to everyone here. I searched and didn't see this, if it is a repost please let me know, also let me know what keyword you searched for.

Here is the basics of this exploit.

You obtain 1850 and you are going for a 2350 rating to buy the next weapon. But you don't want to blow the points on the 1850 Wep then not have enough points to buy the tier 2 weapon when you hit 2350.

The catch is you can resell any item back to vendor within 2 hours. So what you do is,

1) Buy 1850 Wep
2) Que up for arena
3) Sell 1850 Wep back after one hour
4) Buy back 1850 Wep
5) Rinse and Repeat Previous Steps
6) Get to 2350 rating, sell 1850 Wep
Have the points to Buy the 2350 Wep!
9) Profit!!

So yeah if you are pretty good at arena this will allow you to get the better weapon without waiting for the points.

I wouldn't call that common sense, I mean come on.

Secondly, I HIGHLY doubt that Blizz intended for this to work the way it does.

What about weapon enchants?

What about weapon enchants?

Unfortunately you would lose an enchant. Although this would work great for a DK where the rune forge wouldn't cost them anything.

[aldenceise]

enchants is an issue but you could make an addon to automate this if you know what you're doing and would be pretty interesting.

Back to enchanting, would probably still sell back to vendor ok but obv would lose the item enchant permanently. I don't believe the enchants alter the itemID which is probably what the buyback is based on server-side.

Working as intended + the better weapons are 2200 rating

[tekstorm]

I guess you would need to see if you can pull it off with a lesser enchant that doesn't cost as much. Example, beserker would cost too much but could put on the cheap AP enchant.

I also say every hour you should sell, but as long as you do it before two hours you will be fine.

I put 2350 up to correlate with the in-game update that is being pushed out, announced today, that the rating will be pushed to 2350.

This is not worth it in many cases since you can't enchant t1 weapon.
