Money loop with Mystery Meat/Carrion Surprise

[lxhackdxl]

It is an interesting oversight but I did do a little testing on this with a chefs hat. Starting money was 386g 83s 29c. It took 6 minutes to buy, make and sell 22 stacks of the Carrion Surprise. After selling I was at 387g 71s 29c. This is a total of 88s for 6 minutes worth (this could possibly be faster if you have a bot buying a full stack of 20 in one go). That equals out to 5g 28s per hour. This is also on a toon with exalted rep with them. It costed 2s 80c to purchase each Mystery Meat at exalted rep.

Edit: As a side note it took a full 5 minutes on a good connection to craft all 22 stacks. So, even if you have a bot that will buy the meat in full stacks, this is seriously not worth the effort.

ok so on average it is "about" 5.3g/h" if this was done by 1 bot.

now what about those of us that have 30+ bots running 24/7....

quick simple math can look like:

5.3 x 24 x 30 x 6 = 22,896

gold per hour x 1 day x 30 bots x 6 days (i shut my bots off on tuesdays)

now dont go and flame me for my shitty equations, im just basing off what is posted in this thread...

now currently i can make quadruple that on a weekly basis... but if i only have to have my bots sit in 1 place at a vendor... this makes running back and forth from the AH on 5 different accounts alot easier. would save me time. plus, if this really does net that kind of gold, why not get more accounts.. or activate my other accounts and do this? add another 20-25 accounts and make even more? with out having to do a single thing?

pros:
1 place
single back and forth motion at 1 vendor
pure profit with out playing the AH

cons:
not as much gold profit as i currently make
risk of getting mass banned due to multiple toons sitting at 1 vendor

this is just what went through my head in the last 5 minutes of posting. dont get me wrong, this is an amazing find, ill try this for a week with 10 bots and see how it goes.

One problem with this though, what happens when blizzard notices that you have vendored stuff 24 hours a day for 6 days?
Huge red flag on your account I think, like most of the buy from vendor, sell to vendor exploits in the past.

Unfortunately, grinding mobs with a bot will always be faster.

Even if it's not an exploit, I'd say getting gems at low price from AH and vendor (cut if you're a JC or uncut) is a much more worthy and obviously safe money loop. It is true that you can't do it for 24 hours a day straight, but it's a good income every now and then when you hit the AH, just search for these too.

For instance:

There is a problem with that, they are lowering the vendor prices on all raw gems in 4.3. But before that that is a nice way to earn money
