What mats should we try to Stockpile before 3.3 hits?

[knopstr]

Please list what mats you think are going to be the most valuable come patch week.

I'd like to try to make as much as I can. The last couple of patches I was involved in leveling and didn't have the cash to invest.

Thanks to all.

Enchants and Gems. New Patch = New Armor.

poop I didnt stock up anything. Wasn't logging in as often as I'm bored and waiting for 3.3.

Materials to transmute titanium bars since the cooldown is being taken off it and you can prolly sell a lot before the price goes down.

[Marious]

yup titanium xmutes would probably fetch a pretty penny.

Saronite for Ti mute (hope everyone has a transmute master in their herd), pre made armor vellums (+10 to chest should sell well when everyone starts getting new gear). Also for anyone with engineers, there are new ammo patterns with the new faction Ashen Verdict (could net some money if you can boost your rep to honored fast enough, cheap mats for these it appears).

Look up Shatter Rounds and Iceblade Arrows on MMO or Wowhead. I can't seem to link from the Wowhead PTR site.

Crusader Orb patterns seemed to be dropping in price, I picked up a number of them today. After ICC hits you will see a dramatic drop in ToC patterns, just like the Uld stuff stop showing up when 3.2 hit. If your like me and have way too many toons, some of the high end craftables are still worth it. If i had only one team I would not bother as the badge gear is faster to get.

Basically anything required for gemming, enchanting and crafting high end gear (e.g., eternals).

However, I have a feeling there won't be large increase in demand for much as the majority of players are currently still getting new gear, so the demand is there now. Not sure how ICC will increase this by much unless the number of players that "come back" are substantial.

Once people start getting gear in the new Icecrown raid, they will all need it gemmed and enchanted. And with the badge upgrades, regular heroic farmers will be able to get Tier 9 slowly but surely. And the Arena season is overdue for a refresh, and that usually means that current gear with rating requirement will be purchasable with just honor and/or arena points, and the high end stuff will be replaced.... (you see where this is going) Nearly everyone who is maxed on gear/enchants now will be getting upgrades in the next patch, so there will be a HUGE market for mats to enhance these new items. The right timing will be essential. Wait until the AH runs dry of a hot item, then list a lot of em with an insanely high price and watch the gold come in.

gems and enchant mats before they double in price
