Haunting Spirit Huge Gold Income ToT

[EmilM137]

Hello
I'm sharing a, if I have to say it, quite obvious thing with you, although I do think not alot have given this idea a thought.

What you need; 10/25man Clear of ToT where everything will be disenchanted, and I mean EVERYTHING
- 10man clear will give you 24 Haunting Spirits on Normal, 26 for 13/13HC
- 25man will give you 84 Haunting Spirits on Normal, 91 for 13/13HC

- This is a we use in my guild on our alts, and as Haunting Spirits rock for about 1350gold each on my server (Full server) we're having a steady income of ~120k a week to the Guildbank from this method (25man normal clear on alts)

I know this is not a method everyone can use, frankly, not alot, but for those who can, you can make some serious money here with almost no work (I mean you're going to run that alt run anyway, aren't you ^^?)

Not really huge income for 10 peeps, spending hours on them - since you are on alts, you cant really clear it in 1hour.

Generally - if you invite 2-3 buyers per 10m or 5-6 per 25man, you will get much more gold per run, instead of these 35/100k.

No need to mentioning selling the Ahead of the curve achievment, some of the buyers could have deep pockets and pulling off them much bigger cash pools!

You might be right, which is why I said this is not useful to many. My guild clear ToT 25man normal in about 1 hour and 40 minutes on our alts, so this is very much useful for us

So it takes you 8.5min per boss including walking and trash? Somehow i dont think your timer is right

I didn't tell you how good geared we are or what our mains experience is, did I?
We're way overgearing the place on our alts, but we'd rather clear it for gold, so the guild can pay for every consumeable in 5.4 rather than kill maybe 6/13HC or something on our alts.

this is what all the top progression guilds do to be honest

This thread is completely useless since it lacks practical purpose. It takes you at least 3 hours to clear ToT on normal mode with moderately equipped alts. Let's say you're in a 10 man group and disenchant all 24 items, meaning you'll end up with 24 Haunting Spirits, which sell for roughly 1300 gold each on my server. As a raid group, you will have gathered 31200 gold or 3120 gold per person. For a three hour job, it's simply not worth it. Even bad farming spots give you more than that in just one hour. Even if you cleared it in 1:40h, it still would not be worth it.

You'll be much better off equipping your alts for 5.4 and selling mount runs with 2 groups every id rather than disenchanting all equip you find. Describing this whole "idea" as a guide is ridiculous, sorry.

I never said that intention with the money, atleast what my guild, or other guilds use it for, is to distribute it amongst the raid. Do you know how long 120k gold can pay for consumeables for an entire raid? Or even 31.2k. We don't do it do these runs for the individual players wealth, we gain more than enough from boosting on our mains in ToT HC and Gold CM's. I am wellaware this is NOT for EVERYBODY, which is why I made it very clear in the description too, and did say this is NOT available to many players in generel, so you have to comment based on those factors, not refer to it through your ignorant tunnel vision, lechtelier.

I'm sorry. but you are not making any sense here. If it's gold you are after to pay for consumables and repairs, you would still be better off farming individually for an hour and then pooling your gold. There's no point in stopping progress and clearing on normal mode just to disenchant every item. You would be much better off progressing further and actually equipping the items your guild needs since 5.4 will introduce, once again, a great opportunity to make gold with sellruns (even on normal mode). And your guild would benefit from a second sellrun every week a lot more than ignorantly disenchanting every drop.

Even if your guild is looking for gold right now, why aren't you doing 2 ToT sellruns per ID? Personally, both of our groups are getting 500k each for those sellruns every ID compared to the 32k we would get through ignorantly disenchanting every item while clearing on normal mode.

The only time this "method" is viable is when you're clearing the instance 13/13 and don't need the loot anymore. Which is what every guild, including mine, does because it's common sense and not a guide or a special method of gathering gold for your guild. So, I'm sorry if this may sound "ignorant" but this is just the way the cookie crumbles. In my opinion, the notion behind this "guide" is merely common sense while everything you and your guild added can be described as false and not worthy of recommendation.

Personally, it's a mystery to me why this wanna-be guide is still to be closed.
