When to start looting?

[Ken]

Looting anything other than DEable stuff in SM:Cath while powerleveling is foolish, in my opinion.

The cash from all the grey/cloth crap is just not worth it. Looting nearly doubles the amount of time a run takes! Spend 30min on your main and get 8-12 hours worth of SM:Cath cash....

What about the tons of cloth that drop there? If you have a tailorer, you can later make some cloth shoulders and disenchant them :) That's what I did yesterday with about 600 silk cloth :P

If it wasn't because of tailoring and enchanting i would just pass on all the drops there. Need the silk to lvl tailoring and need tailoring to de the stuff to lvl enchanting. All three of my guys have tailoring and enchanting. Tailoring isn't bad it is just enchanting... those stupid rods cost so much money to get. Now i am wondering is the extra +24 spell damage worth having the guys enchanting?

I also have 4 sham team waiting for my pally to get to 70 to power lvl them that are also enchanting. I did the math yesterday and if the rods sell for normal price i will have to coach up 1.5k for 7 rods. That is not counting the pearls and stuff to make the enchanted rod.

On a good note on all the runs and tailoring i don't have to buy any mats. Infact i am selling a lot of mats. Another thing is worth picking up is the scrolls that drop. They sell nice on the AH.

Imo, hell no the ring enchants are not worth getting enchanting on all your toons. I would however recommend having enchanting on at least 2 of your toons, at least one of them being your booster toon.

Great I wish i asked this before i started the grind. Oh well to late now got enchanting to 211 on three of them so i might just finish. Maybe during the expansion they will have better ring enchant or daily de. If that happens i can make some money (like how void crystals where selling for 15-20 on my sever and when you de them [1 per day] you get 2 crystals that sell from 25-30, but the last patch didn't make it a daily).

The rogue that is powerleveling them has de, but once i get my pally to 70 he will be the powerleveler. He is herb and ach. Boy did i screw this up. lol

Edit: Maybe i should hold off on selling the mats on the AH. Who knows what inscription will need to make. If it takes enchanting mats, there will be a huge increase in prices on all mats because people will want to power lvl it.

There is an addon (I haven't tried it yet but will tonight) called LootFilter that might be assistive in looting.

Curse link -> http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/1307/
Author's site (more up to date version I think) -> http://www.lootfilter.com/

It loots everything (still have to right click) then matches against keep/delete rules. So you won't even have sparklies anymore. It'll just destroy things you have determined you don't want. Of course, be careful with any mod that auto-deletes stuff from your bag.

Okay so I just used this add-on and I must say it is actually quite nice.

-However-

I highly, highly, HIGHLY!!! recommend first trying this out on some low level toons or a toon with gear you don't care about and learning how to configure it prior to using it on your main as if you configure it wrong you can easily delete half your inventory and be completely screwed! Also enchanter/crafters make sure you configure it so it doesn't delete your DE mats/(white quality) trade goods. I've only used this on 3 RFC runs to test it out but, if you configure this properly it looks like its a freaking godsend especially to boosters!
