Get Vial of the Sands now(and truegold)

[Videodima]

Ok so if you read any gold blogs or guides, you might know about Truegold in 4.2

It is supposed to skyrocket in price because it will be used in so many more recipes come the new patch. Keep in mind this is speculation, and does not guarantee anything.

Vial of the Sands requires 12 Truegold, and as of now, at least on my server the prices vary between 35k-40k. With truegold becoming more expensive... so will the mount. If you have the money to invest, it could be a well worth payoff.

tldr; buy lots of truegold and vial of the sands

Recipes on the PTR show no use for truegold for new blacksmithing recipes or engineering gun.

Do not stock up.

8 trugold for the engineering gun

Yes truegold price will likely go up... will prob be short lived though cause Chaos orbs are required in great abundance for the recipes. This may act as bottleneck to crafting and thus will hinder the inflation of trugold value. I DO think it will god up for two reasons: New daily quests, which will greatly increase gold into the market -- more gold in people's hands, inflation happens... hence what happens each patch, but it will go up because of demand too... Again, I am guessing not massive increases though... I am thinking 100g-200g max, then it may lvl out again.

I wonder if the price will actually rise, for instance, everyone in my guild has been stockpiling truegold since the prices dropped, and we aren't the only ones. I'm pretty sure that when the patch hits everyone will flood the market with truegold, undercut each other, and the price will stay the same. Sort of like when everyone stockpiled volatile life and the prices didn't really go up (on some servers).

First of all its only the gun that requires truegold. The blacksmithing recipes will require Hardened Elementium, according to blizzards announcements. Also as Abhorsenjay said. Everyone is stockpilling truegold atm due to the belive of truegold being top notch mat in 4.2. so it will be overflooded. Imo. Dont stock it. im trying to get rid of mine since im predicting the prices will sky dive to the ground due to overflooding.

I beg to differ on only one thing needing truegold. And yea people are stockpiling truegold but look at every other patch where craftables came out like this. Tons of people stockpile and it still skyrockets, sometimes shit thats easier to get. Demand for this kinda thing is always gonna be high. But I do agree that the chaos orb might bottleneck the price. Although it might even make it go up more

[abhorsenjay]

The reason prices sky rocket is if the demand is greater than the supply. If people are stockpiling tons of truegold, when the patch hits, the demand will be equal to the supply and therefore the prices will remain the same.

with all the people who will be stockpiling it would be better for those who have bs or eng to get the items made early and get em out to sell before the market gets flooded with em.

all of which are unlocked by finishing the quest lines in the new firelands area... not going to matter if you stockpile or not.

How won't it matter? Just save them to sell until you see people who are saying they can make them. Or even better make them yourself. The crafted items aren't BoP. And people have been stockpiling stuff for releases since the dawn of this game. Look at the most recent, titansteel. People stockpiled the shit out of that every major patch and it still sold ALOT more than normal

Tip: Price will jump alot more on pyrite ore than truegold...since you can get both truegold from pyrite and you will be able to get new EPIC gems by prospecting pyrite ores..

wrong. not this patch atleast. epix gems will not be introduced in 4.2, later
