Moneymaking?

Hey guys,

So I've got questions about moneymaking. I can't seem to make much money, and I was wondering if anyone has any advice for me. I have 2 85's and a 80. My professions are:

Leatherworking - 525
Skinning - 525
Enchanting - ~500
Tailoring - ~500
Mining - 525
Jewelcrafting - 517

So far, I've made most of my money from Leatherworking, making Charscale, Drakehide, and Dragonscale Leg Armor, or a few of the 359 epics. But other than that, I've never really made much money.

Any advice is welcome!

I recommend selling JC cuts. Get the inferno ruby recipes, and then farm elementium and prospect to get chances for the gem. A lot of people will pay pretty nicely for those gems in the AH, especially with firelands out. They sell for about 120g average on my server. (make sure you also make fire prisms for a chance at them)

Raw materials can sell fairly well too, as well as Bind-on-Equip drops from various instances and quests.

That's pretty crazy. Fel Iron Ore doesn't sell anywhere near that on either of my servers :p

People are too lazy to farm ores theyselves ;p

Working on it at the moment, I just had those current 2 pieces either because they were cheap rep items, or because I didnt have anything better :p

Fel Iron bars seem to be going for 100g on my server (Mok'Nathal, medium population, PvE), with the ore at 25g at the cheapest, and 100g at the most expensive.

Also, my level 70 Paladin feels insignificant around your 85's. D:

  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
