Another Method To Transfer Gold Via Xrealm

[monkieassasin]

Hey everyone! This exploit is similar to the one listed in this thread:

http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ew-server.html (Quick way to move a small amount of gold to a new server.)

As you guys know, in 5.4.2, they added a new feature to the game where you can now mail BOA items across servers to different characters on different servers and factions, simply by mailing the character via entering in Name-Server into the mailbox name area.

In the thread linked, he proposes to buy Renowned Guild Tabard, and then send it to another character on a different server for vendoring purposes, but I have found a BOA item you can buy an infinite amount of that has a much better conversion rate, aka price to buy vs price to vendor, then the Guild Tabard.

Im going to start off first by explaining conversion rates, and giving some simple math on how to figure out how much gold you must "waste" to get a select amount of gold to a new server that you want the gold on.
For the Renowned Guild Tabard, the price to buy from the vendor is 225g per, while the vendor price is 62g50s. The conversion rate for this item is 3.6, or for every 3.6 gold you spend to send these over to a new server, you will move over 1 gold to the new server. Preferably, you want this number to be AS LOW AS POSSIBLE, since the higher it is, the more gold you lose.

Here is another heirloom item that also sells for a nice chunk of change, but an example of an extremely high and unrealistic conversion rate: Preened Wildfeather Leggings - Item - World of Warcraft

This item must be bought for 1750g, but when vendored, only gives 43g75s. That means the conversion rate for this item is 40. That means you would waste 40g, just to move 1 gold to a new server. Our tabard is looking pretty sweet right now.

Ive done a ton of searching, and have checked every BOA item thats in the game so far, and the best conversion rate for any item(s), that is realistic, and can be infinitely bought, stored, and mailed, are these items:

Greater Inscription of the Storm - Item - World of Warcraft
Greater Inscription of the Pinnacle - Item - World of Warcraft
Greater Inscription of the Crag - Item - World of Warcraft
Greater Inscription of the Axe - Item - World of Warcraft

At first, at least on wowhead.com, it looks like these items have a worse conversion rate than the Tabard, with a conversion rate of 4 (100g to buy, 25g to vendor), but if you look more closely, you see that the item requires you, in order to buy, to be exalted with the Sons of Hodir, which in turn will also DECREASE the price to buy this item down to 70g per. This means, that the conversion rate for this item, when you ACTUALLY CAN BUY this item, is an awesome 2.8! That is almost an entire extra gold over the guild tabard for moving gold over to a new realm! This means, for every 1k youd like to send over to a new realm, you only need to spend 2.8k!

USES:

This is very useful for people who have lots of gold on one server, such as being gold capped, and want to start investing on another server but dont have a good enough amount of gold to make investing in the AH as efficient. This can be a way to move gold over, reliably, bypassing the pet market, with exact figures and instantly.

Another amazing use for this, is if theres maybe a mount, or pet, that you would like to buy for EXTREMELY cheap, you can go to www.theunderminejournal.com, and get some data on the AH of every single server in your region and figure out what server has the lowest price for that item your wanting to buy. Lets say, for example, you want a Reins of the Swift Spectral Tiger - Item - World of Warcraft , which can usually go for over 600k on some servers, but youve found that for some reason, some no name PVE server has it on their AH for 35 THOUSAND GOLD!! Well, you can spend 98k moving 35k gold over to the new server, and then BUY the mount, and learn it!!! Bam, you just got a Swift Spectral Tiger for LESS THAN 100k gold, and since mounts are shared on accounts, you can use it on all your toons!

EDIT: To clarify, on some servers, either by accident, or ignorance, sometimes really rare and extremely expensive items are posted on the AH of a server for extremely low prices, like 10k for a TCG mount. The AH website will show you which servers also have the lowest prices, so you may be able to snag up a deal like that.

Anyway, if anyone has any more uses for these methods of transfering gold, please post and comment, and ill do my best to keep this thread updated and relevant

All kudos for the original exploit go to http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ew-server.html . I only am to be credited with the discovery of the best conversion rates, determining a way to figure out conversion rates, and the USES at the end of the thread.

I just thought of another awesome use for transferring gold like this to another server.

http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ls-needed.html (Perfectly Disable CRZ(no special tools needed))

Its in combination with what is listed on here. In that thread, it explains how to get the TLPD and Aeonaxx mounts much easier than normal, but it requires your server IP address to not be shared with the zones that these 2 rares spawn in. Mainly the TLPD here, you can level a new character to 85 or even 90 on a different server that does not share the IP address with Storm Peaks, and transfer gold to the new server in order to be able to buy noodle carts, or materials to make those noodle carts.
It might seem like a lot to do to level a new character, but if someone only has 90s on a server that literally shares the same IP address as storm peaks all the time, this could be at least one way they could go about it.

Or just ask anywhere for "Want to trade 10k gold on X-realm for 5k gold on Y-realm" 2.0 conversion rate.

Though money is not guaranteed :P

Exactly. And your bound to have trouble wanting to xfer gold from a lower pop or medium pop realm to a very highly pop realm that way as well. Woudl be hard to find ppl on that low pop realm that are willing ot give up gold on a highly populated realm, where that gold has more value per say.

EDIT: One mroe thing to that as well. That can be a dangerous way to xfer gold too, as that person may try to take your gold without trading it to your character on your new realm. These type of trades are not supported by the TOS either, so if they took your gold, you would most likely not get it back even though you made a ticket about it.

I don't see much good use in this method, You can transfer items to another realm for €20 ....If you want goldcap transfered, guild transfer for €35 .... Sure, that would be considered 40/70K gold spend on transfering your items/gold over, but on big amounts (investor amounts) it would be the much better choice, I think 28k to 10k conversion is terrible. If there's an expensive item on another server for a really cheap price, The chances you will make losses or small profit are big, Even if the expensive item that is considered cheap is listed as 50k, you'd still lose 90K gold for transferring your gold, that would mean the item would have to be worth more than 140k, Which is unlikely & a guild transfer could be considered cheaper/same price

The things you mentioned, for example, A swift spectral tiger for 35k, You'd spend 100k gold transferring your gold over, Have a risk of someone else buying the mount in the meantime while you're transferring your gold + the chances someone puts a swift spectral or infact any high valueable item for atleast 3times less the selling price are low, the chances you know it within a few minutes of the auctions being posted are extremely low, and then it comes with risks, all in all, this sounds like a very bad gold transferring method, If an "investor" wants gold on a new realm, I do hope he will not make use of this method, because that would make a very bad investor.


If you want to trade 100k gold inbetween realms, found someone who is willing to do it, but you don't trust him, just offer him to trade like 5k at a time and do that for example 20 times, If he says no, it's probably a scammer.

Im gold capped on darkspear, and I wouldnt call myself a bad investor for finding quite a bit of use for this. Point is, you say just spend 20 bucks. You may have that 20 dollars to spend in real life, but not everyone is willing to spend 20 bucks ot transfer 50kg, just to get a 1 for 1 gold transfer rate. This is for people who dont have the money, or dont want to spend the money, on getting some gold to a new server. Its great for someone who wants to start investing with say 20kg on a new server, as that can take 10 hours of farming to get to in the first place. If im over gold capped one one server, spending 55k to get 20k on a new server isnt anything i would be fretting about, as long as I dont have to spend my own precious real life money.

About cheap items on other servers, I gave examples of extreme cases. If a Swift Spctral Tiger is 35k, and that means it would take about 100k gold to transfer that amount to a new server, 100k is still extremely cheap for that mount. On another note as well, if it is that cheap, it is ALMOST ALWAYS on a REALLLLLY low pop server of some sort. The odds of someone else catching that before you are not high since there arent even many players on at a given time.

About the transfer time, other than buying the enchants and mailing them, its instant since its to your own characters. If you want 25kg on a new server, you would need to 1k enchants to transfer it. You can mail 12 at a time, which is 300g vendoring per package. So it would be 80-90 boxes fo enchants. Buying that amount, sending it off, and then vendoring it shoudl nto take any longer than 15 mins, especially considering you can buy 20 at a time, and mail 12 at a time.
