Hardmodes, 4.01 patch ridiculous gold intake, and other madness!

Only 12 more to go!!!!!!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

Been out of commission as of the past week, but I am back in business!  Lots going on with the WoW Gold Project so let’s not waste any time getting right into it!

First of all, HUGE congrats to Shock and Awe and all of our members that have been performing some RIDIC progression on ICC25 Hardmodes.  We are already 8/12 ICC25 HM, and because of this, the Shadowfrost Shards are flowing.  I only need 12 more, so if the random number generator gods are shining upon me, I may be able to get Shadowmourne in two weeks.  Stay tuned.

Inscription: Post patch 4.01

You saw the picture above.  It is STILL hot hot hot!  Glyph cost has increased to 3 ink per glyph, and on my server, Ink of the Sea go for roughly 5 gold each.  That means anything over 15g is profit on glyphs (not even counting profit earned from selling Snowfall Ink!).

Here is what I am seeing on my server in regards to trends, which is still outrageous:

Old Trend:

Glyph Cost = 5g

Average Glyph Sale = 20g

High Glyph Sale = 50g

New Trend:

Glyph Cost = 15g

Average Glyph Sale = 50g

High Glyph Sale = 75g to 236g!!!!!!!

Ridic...

TL;DR, Glyphs cost more to make, but the profit is even more ridiculous than before!

I have all kinds of people telling me this is not going to last very long, but I think it will last well into Cataclysm.

If you have not already, you need to get on the Golden Scribe Train and make that profit.

Parachute Fun

Just hanging out

So, I found out on accident that apparently Engineers can use their parachute while standing still, and it will deploy, but will not go away until the time runs out or unless you jump!  You are free to move around, use Eng rocket boots, and even fight while “Parachute Mounted”.  Although there is no special effect or anything of that nature, it looks pretty funny and can garner a few stares, whispers if you are running around with your parachute out.  Check it out if you are an Eng :)

Some props

Some props from some fellow raiders.  Thanks guys and girls, and glad I could help!

Fail of the week

The pic speaks for itself.

Shock and Awe Outtakes

With achieving 8/12 HM in ICC25 comes some pain and suffering.  I have a few gems for you as follows:

Did not move for defile...ouch

After yet another successful RS25 one shot, I find JBlaze getting to work early on his archaeology profession by inspecting the ground most of the fight. All he found was a rez.

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

Another Mega Update!

Shock and Awe ICC25 Lich King first down!!!!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

Lots going on with the WoW Gold Project as of late, so will just get right to it.  Again, be sure to click on most of the pics for an zoomed in full screen view.

Shock and Awe ICC25 Lich King first down!

As you can see in the pic above, the time and effort we have put in to killing the Lich King in 25 man ICC has finally paid off.  Big grats to everybody that was there for the kill, everybody that could not be but still put in a ton of work, the players that stayed late and through prior engagements, and also to a few players who stepped in to give us a hand when we were short.  Here are a few more pics from the event:

We got it!

Finish him off

Arthas was no match for Mini Diablo, The Lord of Terror

What did the Lich King drop?

Vanquisher’s Mark

Shadowfrost Shard :)

Shadowfrost Shard number 21

Even more good luck for Goldproject that same night?!?!

Recently, a player named Sib from the guild Breakdown completed his Shadowmourne.  After killing the Lich King in ICC25, he received the Sealed Chest.  He decided that he wanted some gold for Cataclysm so he offered to sell me the Tabard of the Lightbringer, one of the cool items that is a reward from the Sealed Chest.  He gave me an EXTREMELY good deal on it, so I just wanted to thank him once more for selling it to me.

May you always bring light into dark places

The Tabard has a use effect that Suffuses the bearer with The Light for five minutes. It has a 30 min cooldown that starts as soon as you use it.

I used to be a great Night Elf hero, who turned into an evil Scourge death knight, but then free of the Lich King's will and now a kinda good Death Knight out for revenge. Post revenge I am now embracing The Light again. Full circle completed?

Funny stuff of the week

I bet you can guess what my answer was

Nice name

Mini Diablo spitting that HOT FAIIIIIIYAAAAAA!

Cooking fail repost showing the mystery player could have used both the fireplace AND the stove instead of making a fire just feet from them. Thanks to Steelray and Curious Gnome Rogue for reminding me :P

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

Maintenance Update

Cooking fail. Whoever was in here before me decided that taking the time to make a fire was quicker than walking one step towards the stove to cook stuff... /facepalm

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

My apologies for the severe lack of updates.  Once this maintenance is completed, I will continue providing the great WoW Gold Project coverage that you have come to know and love!  :)

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

Mega Update!!!!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

The past few days have been a bit busy, so unfortunately I was unable to update the WoW Gold Project the last few days at the end of this week.  However, today I decided to post a mega update of a bunch of different things that have been going down with Goldproject in the World of Warcraft universe.  Sit back and enjoy the ride, and as usual, click on most pics to get a full screen size :)

Shock and Awe Outtakes Part 2

We let a guild member other than myself ride the suit once more. Let's just say that the room had slightly less slime than you see in the pic at the start of phase 3.

Oh look! Somebody tried to build me another frozen throne.

Not hard to be selective about who makes it into Shock and Awe with gems like these

If you do not even know the name of the bosses you are fighting...

WoW Gold Project Kudos

Whether it is 200g or 6k gold, I am happy to help people make it with this blog.

Quick Gold Tips for Fisherman and Mages

Go to Azshara, fish up elemental patches, and sell the Globes of Water, Elemental Water, and Essence of Water for huge profit!

This mage knows how to make some gold during brewfest!

Went on a hunt for World Dragons recently, and even met Malfurion Stormrage

Ysondre awaits

Ysondre's eyes are closed so we thought we should put the dragon to sleep

Nightmare Engulfed Object is a quest starter

One of the few, rare appearances of Malfurion Stormrage in the game. It is cool that for a vanilla quest, he speaks about Arthas and Illidan. Foreshadowing ftw.

The only Horde Dwarf?!?!

Larion is on the horde side? If you were wondering, Luigi, I mean Marion, is also in the game. See what they did there?

Pirate Day was fun

Flagged Horde Blood Elf with the name Legolas....ALWAYS WORTH IT!

Decided to make a visit to the Orgrim Hammer gunship

Goldproject is now running the show

This Blood Elf that speaks English to me is getting his Orc Speak on.

Warbringer Davos Right serves me now thanks to Engineering

The Grand Finale

This statue taught me the secrets to becoming a giant

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

I Am Now Starcaller Goldproject

Algalon the Observer

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

After getting the Lich King achievement Been Waiting a Long Time For This, we had an hour left for raiding, so we went ahead and extended our Ulduar 10 lock and took a shot at killing Algalon, The Observer.  Once you engage Algalon, you only have 1 hour to kill him until he casts a ridic spell and despawns until the next lockout.  His room and story are probably some of my favorite in the entire World of Warcraft Universe, and the pictures below do not do it justice.  As usual, click on some of the pics to get a full screen view.

Sick looking

Beat him with just six minutes to spare! Now give up that cosmic treasure chest!

Spoilers below!!!!!!!!

————

He drops an item called Reply-Code Alpha which is turned in to Rhonin in Dalaran for a quest.  The following is an explanation from the first comment by Aelleth on wowhead:

“A guaranteed drop from Algalon the Observer’s cache in normal mode, one item per raid.

About the item’s background (spoiler warning):

Algalon the Observer’s planetary diagnostics result in one of two possible reply signals: Reply-Code Alpha, signalling ‘All is well’, and Reply-Code Omega, requesting planetary reorigination. If he is not stopped within one hour, his analysis confirms the Archivum Console’s calculations, which estimate the chance of Reply-Code Omega to be 99.99% (repeating, of course), finding partial corruption in the planet’s life support systems, as well as complete corruption in most of the planet’s defence mechanisms. When he is defeated, however, he rearanges the Reply-Code and leaves this item in the Gift of the Observer chest, because he lacks the strength to transmit it to the Pantheon himself. As Brann suggests, the Reply-Code should be brought to Rhonin in the Violet Citadel, from where it can be transmitted.”

————

We then gathered around the statue in front of the south bank in Dalaran as Zapdos, the lucky Reply-Code Alpha winner, turned in the quest to Rhonin:

Reply-Code Alpha is sent to the Pantheon as we watch on our Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher drakes

Love the effects

The entire sky has cleared revealing only stars

Impressive light show

Everything begins to return to normal

I absolutely loved Ulduar, and cannot wait for raids of similar quality, in-depth lore, and enjoyment in Cataclysm.

Until next time, keep farming the AH!!!!

Glory of the Ice Crown Raider 10 completed!

Riding my new Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher mount!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

Seven members of Shock and Awe, including myself, have completed Glory of the Ice Crown Raider 10, and received our ridiculous 310% flying Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher mounts! Congrats to everybody that got their mount, and to the remaining few who we will finish up in the coming weeks.  Check out some additional screenshots and comments below:

We are showing off our new mounts in Dalaran

A few comments I received after parking my new mount in Dalaran

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

18 Shadowfrost Shards

Goldproject now has 18 Shadowfrost Shards!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

Engineering providing a surprising amount of income (not as much as Inscription or Jewelcrafting, but much more than Blacksmithing) is making the WoW Gold Project as successful as ever.

Also, I am happy to report that I now have 18 Shadowfrost Shards.  Shock and Awe is extremely close to an ICC25 Lich King kill, and I look forward to heroic modes shortly after.

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

Shock and Awe Outtakes

I know I am going for Shadowmourne, but you guys did not have to go through all the trouble of creating me my own frozen throne as well! What nice guys and girls!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

I thought it would be fun to post a few pictures of some Shock and Awe raid night attempts when we brought in some new players.  The pic above was a first attempt with a bunch of new players on Sindragosa in ICC25, which we have on farm.

The following pics (Click on any pic to see the full screen size) are when we let a guild member try for Unholy Infusion, which requires riding in the abomination suit during the Professor Putricide encounter.

First attempt in the abomination suit in ICC25 by a guild member. Phase 2 is looking kinda rough.

One week later, after some practice in tens, we let him drive the suit again. Mash 1, son! Mash 1!

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

Goldproject is now an Engineer

Goldproject looking sexy in his new Turbo Charged Flying Machine

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

I just dropped Inscription and powerleveled Engineering to 450 in one day, and after one night of raiding with it, I can honestly say that I love it.  I chose Gnomish Engineering and here are some of the many benefits:

For PvE Raiding, here is what I am using:

  • [Hyperspeed Accelerators] – 340 haste for 12 seconds every 1 minute
  • [Reticulated Armor Webbing] – 885 bonus armor.
  • [Flexweave Underlay] – Parachute effect once per minute, and 23 bonus agility.
  • [Nitro Boosts] – 5 sec speed boost every 3 minutes. This is great for dps to get away from something or get back to a moving target.  The quicker you get back, the quicker you can start dpsing
  • [Saronite Bombs] – Bombs that do an aoe explosion, have a short cooldown, and are off of the global cooldown (extra dps ftw)
  • [Helm Enchant] – Forgot the name of this one, but it adds 45 stamina to a helmet and allows the wearer to attempt to take control of a humanoid’s mind.  This ability has a 10 min cooldown.  If you do not need defense rating (which most should not in end game gear), then this head enchant is the best in the game for tanks in my opinion.

Convenience Items:

  • Auction House in Dalaran – Yes!!!!!
  • MOLL-E – personal mailbox
  • Jeeves – Repair bot, sale bot, and access your bank
  • Northrend Wormhole Generator

Cool Items:

  • Turbo Charged Flying Machine

Hula Doll that actually bobbles on the dashboard - check!

Shariza and I admire my new construct

Now, the real question is, after giving up my gold making juggernaut of Inscription, will I be able to make any gold at all with Engineering?  Let’s find out :)

Until next time, keep farming that AH!!!!

[Been Waiting a Long Time for This] Completed!

Been Waiting a Long Time for This completed!

What is up AH Farmers?!?!

The WoW Gold Project is moving along at a better pace every day.  I am hoping to hit the gold cap before Cataclysm hits, and in the meantime, Shock and Awe is pushing Lich King in ICC25 man as well as finishing up the last achievement we need for our Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher drakes in ICC10, Glory of the Ice Crown Raider.

We are also tried Yogg-Saron +1 for that specific achievement for the Rusted Proto-Drake reward from Glory of the Ulduar Raider.

Phase 2 Yogg looks kinda like a Metroid

Really want to get these mounts since it is unknown as to what will happen to them once Cataclysm hits.

Profession Dilemma

I have been hearing some great things about Engineering for dps DKs, and while I want to switch to it, I do not want to give up Inscription or Jewelcrafting so maybe it is time to level an alt, give them inscription, and then replace Inscription with Engineering on Goldproject…

Until next time, keep farming the AH!!!!
