Extra Gold grinding during Love is in the Air.

[Ground Zero]

Fixed as of 4.0.6, you can now buy items normally. Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted, please don't bump this thread.

As most of us know, Love is in the air. (c what I did thar?) and people are once again running around crazy after achievements.

Well as some of you may have noticed, you can't get some of them this year because the vendor is bugged, you can't buy Love Rockets nor Silver Arrows.

So this is where we come in, using the macro /run BuyMerchantItem(12) (and 13 for arrows) we can buy the Love Rocket - Item - World of Warcraft and Silver Shafted Arrow - Item - World of Warcraft

What's so good about this? Well there are people who are willing to pay through their teeth to get the achievements.

I've been selling the rockets for 800g a stack of 10 and 300g for 5 arrows on my server, managed to rake in 10k~ since yesterday.

Happy exploiting the stupidity of others.

*Credits to a poster on the wow forums for the macro.

Very nice, but maybe all the people on my server already knows how to buy them, I'm not getting any offers, hah.

Heh unlucky, my server seems to be mostly populated by kids and retards. When I got the achievement in orgrimmar at least 5 people whispered me how.

Quote from wowhead:

Run this script in the chat and then when you buy things make sure you talk to the Lovely Merchant and keep it targeted while buying!

/run local f=BuyMerchantItem BuyMerchantItem=function(s,c)if 37674==tonumber("0x"..(UnitGUID("target")or""):sub(7,10))then f(s)else f(s,c)end end

When you right-click the items you will purchase them without errors, yay for mini-addons!

Note: this is lost when you reload the interface, disconnect, logout and so forth. In short, don't worry, this will not stick and ruin the game, if problems occur just simple relog will fix it.

Also for those interested in the technical aspect of the script, all it does it overrides the built in function that is used when you buy items from merchants. In short, when you target the Lovely Merchant NPC it will skip the quantity check but if you don't target it while buying it will use regular buying behavior. This being said I don't think buying in stacks (shift-clicking and buying a specific amount) works with these vendors, but I doubt it will be a issue.

I'm still pretty sure bumping a thread from a year ago is against the rules, but if the section mods want it there, then they can move it there.
