Shodokan's Army - Cataclysm Preperation & Discussion

BRB Transferring To Illidan! Free Cataclysm stuff for me!

This BB has an ignore feature. If you don't care to read Shodokan's posts, you don't have to.

Yet, if you do ignore the ignorant fool, you get lost on what is going on in virtually every thread.

While I was in the same boat when shodokan first arrived. I enjoy some of the gold making stuff he has posted as I myself have implemented a couple of his suggestions and it has worked well.

I understand the alch but I don't see the JC.

Icy Prism?

Thats a joke you get almost nothing from it from what I see. You get a sure gem from a tansmute you get most junk from the icy prism. Also it dosnt benifit from specilization like transmutes or tailor does.

Tailor in cata if there are cloth cool downs seems a lot better to me, if gold is yur goal.

I have one JC and all the profit he makes is from cutting jems. You have to buy a LOT of ore just to get him his recipies if you dont do dailies.

Im going Alch on all then some tailors (least one of each specilzation, probably more), a few that make the titansteel bars, and one of each other. Who ever left going Enginering for PvP / PvE.

Im up to like 140K (and I started with zero and have only 9 alch right now) and will make more now that I got most of the JC recipies out of the way. Thats mainly by selling gems and the high end armors, all types.

Shocko, I'm here to offer my support. I enjoy your posts and your goals. I also think you add useful information to this forum and liked this thread before all the hate entered. While some other posters (used to) discuss being the best WoW player without really knowing anything about the game, you're taking the approach of difficult goals with a solid understanding of mechanics. I do wish your goals didn't change quite so often, but I attribute that to Cata coming. Like veryone else, as more information is available or changes made, our goals are shifting.

Good luck with the funding of a raid group and please keep posting for my, and others, entertainment. Those who don't want to read your post can go read the forums about setting up RAF or why Keyclone is broken.

Tailoring has no "specialty" in cataclysm, meaning you get 6 maximum per toon. Also they must be made in specific areas of the game that unless you are level 78 you cannot get to safely and would be quite a hassle to summon all of them there.

I'd bet that cloth would be worth around the same (200g) per, maybe less so now that it is a single type that every tailor can make 6 of (thus mastery gone). The math for this is as follows

Stack of cloth = ~ 15g or more
Each 10 motes = 15 gold or more likely other than earth

So you are looking at... 30 * 6 * 40 = 7200 motes alone which is ~ 10k gold
Then you have cloth which for all the bolts necessary. It requires 2 stacks of cloth per toon per cloth
40 * 30 * 6 = 7200g

Total cost is about 14kg
Total profit: 200 * 40 * 6 = 48000 48k-14k = 34k

I fail to see how after costs a profit of 34k, and after costs a profit of 80+k is better. Not to mention to supply as many toons as i am with "dropable" items will be far more a pain in the ass then paying people to farm ore for me.

Also keep note that even the brilliant glass model yields over 30k gold more, which is nearly double the gold that tailoring makes. Also keep in mind that flipping ore alone will yield a profit of over 100k.

I will not have 1 JC toon, i will have at least 15 to 20 at 78 ready to do the JC dailys. That means on day 1 I get 20 cuts(if it is like wrath). So this also means if it is like wrath within 10 days i will have EVERY cut in the game. (55 non meta)

I also do have 6 toons that will not be this, one is bs/jc, one is lw/jc, one is tailoring/inscription... i have all my bases covered.

I don't get the venom that's coming out here - people who don't want to read his posts don't have to - and regardless of what comes of it, I've found some of the speculation about ways to do things pretty interesting. A lot of times I'll see things people are speculating about on these boards and kind of try my own twist on it - better that than, as someone else said, yet another post about "hai me am noob how am get raf work?"

I'm not the Kate from the list mentioned in the OP, but I probably will be getting some professions lined up to make a bit of gold on day 1.

If you don't want to read someone's post, don't click on it in the first place. The point I see in this forum is to share idea's, if you don't want to see his ideas, don't go into his thread and post garbage about how you don't like him.

Back to the thread?

Looks pretty interesting man, keep us posted!!!

[Drommon]

Keep posting Shodokan. I find your ideas intuitive and entertaining. Ignore the hate, it comes from jealousy.

So the "no specialty" is changing to tailors being able to produce 6 types of cloth each day? And no multiples getting created when the tailor crafts a single item?
Will alchemy still have a specializtion?
