Hello! This guide is mainly focusing on weapons, but there's of course a lot of unique, cool looking rare armor pieces out there! So most of the guide is for both types. And it includes item that I, read I, think look good! Remember we all have our different opinions about visual things!
As you all know, patch 4.3 is right around the corner and I would guess that it will be released aproxx 1 or 2 weeks after 29th of november (arena season end), and with 4.3 there's this new feature called Transmorgification and what I think will be a great gold source pretty much all the time, but on the release day and the days after I think prices will be quite high if you have obtained the right items that are sought after!
First off, a great thing as always is to check the AH regulary and then choose weapons for example, try to find some unique cool looking models that you think people will be intrested in buying for a reasonable amount of gold, for example if you find a weapon, let's say the 2 handed sword Demonslayer, it looks pretty nice, then head over to Wowhead: Dataz! We need more dataz! and type in Demonslayer and then press "Same model as" -> Demonslayer - Item - World of Warcraft as you can see there are 3 weapons in the game with almost the same model, and all 3 are quite rare to obtain, so it would be nice to buy this off the AH and save for 4.3.
The "Same model as" thing will show you all the items that have the same model, it could be different texture and coloring tho, but it shows the same model and you can click them to see where you get them, so if you find a cool looking weapon and check the same model and another weapon that looks the same drops inside an instance, I'd suggest not buying it because it's very easy to obtain, tho you can chance and try sell it anyway if someone is lazy and haven't checked that it dropped inside an instance
Do this a few times a day and I'm sure you will find items that are quite cheap and cool looking that you will make a profit on when 4.3 hits!
-----------------------------------
Another great thing to do is to try and find the world rare's in Outland, Doom Lord Kazzak, in Hellfire Peninsula Doom Lord Kazzak - NPC - World of Warcraft and Doomwalker in Shadowmoon Valley Doomwalker - NPC - World of Warcraft, espicially Doomwalker since he drops Ethereum Nexus-Reaver Ethereum Nexus-Reaver - Item - World of Warcraft, there's not a weapon out there that looks the same, and I think that will make a huge profit on AH.
The easiest way to be able to check for these bosses is to get Blessed Medallion of Karabor Blessed Medallion of Karabor - Item - World of Warcraft, tho, it's a very long questline to get it, if you scroll down on this page to the second comment you will find a guide of how to obtain it, but be prepared for a long journey! The Secret Compromised - Quest - World of Warcraft
Otherwise if you dont wanna obtain it, you can either be a mage and teleport to Shattrath and fly to the two places, if you're not a mage you can ask a mage to make you a portal to Shatt and so on, or if you cant find a mage, for alliance, go to Mage Quarter in Stormwind and head up in the tower and take the portal to Blasted Lands, then fly into the Dark Portal and then you're in Hellfire Peninsula in no time! For horde, go to Valley of Spirits, and there's a portal next to the portal trainer.
-----------------------------------
You can also go in Molten Core and kill Ragnaros since he drops 2 random blue items that are BOE and it could drop something really cool!
It's the same in Blackwing Lair with Nefarian, this is a bit tricky tho since you need atleast 2 people to pass the first boss.
While doing this you can get some nice weapons for yourself that are BoP! Such as Draconic Avenger Draconic Avenger - Item - World of Warcraft and many, many more!
-----------------------------------
Now to the craftable items! Notice that these are crafted, and the mats could be quite expensive on the AH, but could be very cheap if you have your own miner (most includes mining reagents) and if you have time and really wanna farm some items, for example Primal Air/Fire/Water/Shadow/Earth and so on. It's up to you if it's worth it!
Items that could very well sell for a nice amount of money:
Titansteel Destroyer - Titansteel Destroyer - Item - World of Warcraft
Nightfall - Nightfall - Item - World of Warcraft
Felsteel Reaper - Felsteel Reaper - Item - World of Warcraft
Hammer of Righteous Might - Hammer of Righteous Might - Item - World of Warcraft
Dark Iron Reaver - Dark Iron Reaver - Item - World of Warcraft Truly a unique model
Core Marksman Rifle - Core Marksman Rifle - Item - World of Warcraft This is my favourite! I have made myself 10 of them!
Elementium-Edged Shaper - Elementium-Edged Scalper - Item - World of Warcraft
Felsteel Longblade - Felsteel Longblade - Item - World of Warcraft <- Really awesome!
Brainsplinter - Brainsplinter - Item - World of Warcraft
-----------------------------------
That's all from me! Please if you know items that look realy cool, please post them if I haven't!
