[Insane Gold] BS+Ench 3.0.9 (gogo b4 nerfbat)

[Itzelsnitch]

Time for me to Contribute again ^^ I dont post often but when i do
I like it to be properly.
Yes this is almost EXACT as the 3.0.8 post i made:
(http://www.mmowned.com/forums/wow-gu...h-3-0-8-a.html)
But its very much changed. And still big profit even though the prices have gone down.

!!Warning!!
No this is not Bannable.
This depends on your AH prices.. Luckily Im on a retard Server with insane prices ^^

[Requirements]
350 Enchanting
400 Blacksmithing
About 300g to start with.

[Alternative]
An alt with 375 Mining. (will help)
6000g+ :P (To own the market)

[Helpfull Addons]
Auctioneer
Some MailMod (CT_MailMod?)

[Pre 3.0.9]
So remember Horned Cobalt Helm?
Costed 8x Cobalt Bar to create and often disenchanted into Cosmic essence or high
number of infinite dust? A pure gold mine for us Blacksmithers/Enchanters.
This got way downed due to market prices getting spammed with mats..
No longer usefull

[In 3.0.9]
bubu FU Auction House xD
I found another thing that works just the same :P Notched Cobalt War Axe
Notched Cobalt War Axe - Thottbot < CLICKABLE LINK
Costs 10x Cobalt Bar and disenchants only into Greater Cosmic Essensces.
Yeah it costs more mats BUT the price off bars has gone down MASSIVELY.
So what I do is simply OWN the market of ALL Greater Cosmic Essence
Anyway lets get onto the guide.

[ALTERNATIVE- Aquiring Bars Via Ores (AH but Cheaper)]
Why do i have this here? Well Ores are Usually cheaper then Bars so simply buy ores
and smelt :P
So if you managed to level an alt and have 375 mining, simply go and learn the
[Smelt: Cobalt Bar] recipe from the trainer in Howling Fjord and go to the inn and then log your main.
Buy ALL Cobalt Ores you can find for reasonable prices (at my AH its 1.1g each)
Send em to your alt, log alt and start Smelting (I usually get 300-800 ores per day).
You can go AFK meanwhile as this takes some time. When that is done ship over all to your Main.
And relogg

[Aquiring Cobalt Bars Via AH]
GoGo AH and buy ALL Cobalt Bars you can find for reasonable prices.
(at my AH they are 1.4g each) I usually buy for about 3000g per day before
the Auction House is emptied out (dont worry it will restack over night).

[Starting the Process - Crafting]
Aight I lurk Ironforge so with all your 100s of Bars head to the Great Anvil (any anvil).
And start Smithing Notched Cobalt War Axe . This is a item from
the trainer and still gives GCE.
But its a new type of goldmine ^^
Now smithing 30 or 300 doesnt matter it still takes time. So go afk, take a coffee or w.e
Check in reguarly and when your done start Disenchanting (/Yawn).
From a batch of 40 axes (400 bars) I get around 75 Greater Cosmic and 20 Dust.
And thats pretty awesome (math section further down).

[ALTERNATIVE - Owning AH]
If your alrdy rich and just want more cash to spend on unnesacary mounts or gear for alts.
Then you should take an intrest while doing this to OWN the Dust/Essence market.
THIS REALLY PAYS OFF!
For example you just did this and got 300 Essences..
But the price for the essence only 10g each..
Well then you just simply BUY ALL Essences on the AH.
And resell them+yours for your own price (my is 17g per essence)
(Buy low - sell high Common Sense and posted many times, but needed to be in this post)

[Ending the Process - Collecting the Money]
So i kinda login for 30min every 3 hours to buy new bars and create etc.
But i save all my DE Mats for later. I put them up at night on the AH.
So if you could afford it and did what it says above then simply put up your items for your
own prices. Its not hard. But if you got 400+ items and want to auction them 1 by 1
(like i do) Auctioneer REALLY helps with this, it will divide your stacks and auction them
for you with your own Price.
Anyway after you posted em all up you can just log and/or do something else.
Login in the morning and be prepared to have over 100 mails.. I NEVER have Everything
sold at the same time. But when i login im getting spammed 24/7 that a buyer has been found
etc.. All day round it just never ends.. I find it amusing some find it annoying.

So simply Rinse and Repeat.

[The Profit - Mathimatical conclusion]
NOTE: This is my server, but using same system you can just edit prices and see if there
still is an profit for you.

This example uses 100 Notched Cobalt War Axe.
Disenchant info:
Greater Cosmic Essence (75% 1.5)
Infinite Dust (20% 3.5)
Dream Shard (5% 1)

75 x 1.5 = 112.5 (75 axes became essence)
20 x 3.5 = 70 (20 became dust)
5 x 1 = 5 (5 became Shards)

112.5 x 17g = 1912.5 (17g = Price per Item)
70 x 4.2g = 294 (4.2g = Price per Item)
5 x 10g = 50 (10g = Price per Item)

1912.5
294.0
+ 50.0
2256.5

Cobalt Ore Cost:
1.20g x 1000 = 1200g
1200 = 12
100

Profit:
2256.5 - 1200 = 1056.5
1056.5 = 10.565
100
1 Axe Cost = 12
1 Axe Sell for = 22.565
So the Profit buying Ores is 10.565g PER Axe.

Profit Per Ore:
10= 1g 5silver 65copper
10.565

Cobalt Bar Cost:
1.4 x 1000 = 1400g
1400 = 14
100

Profit:
2256.5 - 1400 = 852.5
852.5 = 8.525
100
1 War Axe Cost = 14
1 War Axe Sell for = 22.525
So the Profit buying Bars is 8.525g PER Axe.

Profit Per Bar:
10= 85 silver 25copper
8.525

As you see YES Ores do give more profit BUT!! It takes 50% Longer to do..
Choose your own way I do both rly.

[FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions]

Q. Owning the market is hard :S People keep undercutting my auctions!
A. Well Start by just buying the undercutted auctions and reposting them for your price.
Keep doing this for a few days.

Q. Why didnt u just update your old post?
A. Well because servers differ.. the old item might work on other servers + ppl might want to check how it
was back in that patch.. So deleting it might be stupid..

[Final Note]
So im making 0.8-1.3g PER BAR/ORE i buy... buying 3000 bars/ores will bring me in a total profit of ~3300g (from 300 axes)
Pretty Damn nice i might aswell add
Probably some spelling errors, will fix if some1 finds a big one.
If you are on my server and faction I WILL personally kill your character and make him
forever in misery and he will not be in the mood to login :P ^^

[wow4Supplier]

I`m on your Server...yay...going to do this...
just kidding =]
Well,nice,you posted the link to the original,of this repost
kidding again...

+Rep

[hafpih]

Nice guide! Might try this. +rep

Edit: Wuhu! nr. 100 rep!

[Flawless]

So the Profit buying Ores is 10.565g PER Helmet.

per helmet would be from the old spiked cobalt. Fix if you'd like!

[Vavixian]

Very nice detailed guide, you just have to fix some Helmet instead of Axes in a couple of places (mostly end of guide). Good thought out.

[Rohi]

So you are saying to craft 1 item If im right.
Been posted before :P

[Itzelsnitch]

So the Profit buying Ores is 10.565g PER Helmet.

per helmet would be from the old spiked cobalt. Fix if you'd like!

idd thx for noticing xD

[jaysquirrel]

I made around 30,000g from the Horned Helm method. Its a shame Greater Cosmics on my server sell for 13g.

Will give it a try though, I have about 20 stacks of Ore/bars in my bank.

[Deadnisse]

Lolol, ive used this method for ages, thought it was posted to. Its funny that no1 have discovered it by now

[jaysquirrel]

Well I decided to compare the two methods. Since I usually pay around 1.25g per Cobalt Bar/Ore.

-----

10x [Notched Cobalt War Axe] Disenchanted into:

11x [Greater Cosmic Essence], 3x [Infinite Dust] and 1x [Dream Shard]

Cost to make = 100 x 1.25 = 125g

11x 14.5g = 159.5g (Assuming each Greater Cosmic sells for 14.5g)
3x 4.5g = 13.5g (Assuming each Infinite Dust sells for 4.5g)
1x9g = 9g

Total 182g (172.9 inc 5% AH CUT)
47.9g Profit

-

10x [Horned Cobalt Helm] Disenchanted into:

5x [Greater Cosmic Essence] and 23x [Infinite Dust]

Cost to make = 80 x 1.25g = 100g

5x 14.5g = 72.5g (Assuming each Greater Cosmic sells for 14.5g)
23x 4.5g = 103.5g (Assuming each Infinite Dust sells for 4.5g)

Total 176g (167.2 inc 5% AH CUT)
67.2g Profit

-------

Over the last month I've seen prices of Dust and Cosmic's drop by around 50% on my server, looks like I may be just taking my money and running for now. Dust used to sell for an easy 5g, and Cosmics for over 20g.

[nicotine1025]

so many people have discovered similar methods, which has lead to much higher supply for enchanting mats, and their prices have gone done rapidly.

on my server, dusts were selling for 7-10g and essences 25-40g a few months ago, but right now, dusts are 4g ea and essences 10-15g ea, so if i were to do this, i may actually lose money after calculating the deposit and opportunity costs.

but then again each server differs from one another. and if you are planning on doing this, you should do this sooner than later. look at the price for arcane dust/planar essences before the xpac came. they were so cheap that people would rather vendor greens than disenchanting them.

[l4m0r]

this is a repost. i saw this a few months ago and told my brother to make notched cobalt war axes out of my cobalt. i was annoying him

greets,

l4m0r

p.s. this wasn't nerfed with 3.0.9, it already worked before

[lort]

Known this for really long

[tezzarist]

would this be better than the jc version ie making the rings and de'ing them?

[jaysquirrel]

@tez: You'll have to research your own server for that.

Find out how much it costs to get the mats and how much you'll make in profits.
