They'll put enchants, gems, and potions on the AH and basement level prices - way below the value that the mats will hold for months. At that point everyone'll be be leveling professions, and some will desperately want gold back. Right around the end of the first week I'll go on a buying spree. Completing a deck is often worth losing a small amount of gold in a card for card trade. I'll also aggressively trade DMF cards in trade chat and in guild. I'll probably do material swaps with guildies to get my stuff up, and will trade enchants for greens/blues that aren't being used for the mats. Like normal, get into the DMC market early. Push enchanting and tailoring, which are on my main, and inscription as quick as possible. There is certainly gold to be make at the very beginning of an expansion as u/Veldoranz and u/sYnce explains. You have at least 2 months, so start now if they are slow sellers anyway. There will be even less interest in those things once Shadowlands is released. Whether that is binding your hearthstone, utilizing your mages, druids, dk's, or getting all your engineering teleports.ĬLEAN OUT YOUR BANKS/BAGS! lol Sell off things that already sell very "iffy" anyway (i.e. Get all your teleports made and ready to go back to places that help your current flow of gold-making. Figure out how much Expulsom you will need for that small market corner and start stockpiling it now. Some people left the game a while ago and won't be back until after Shadowlands releases (for whatever their reasons are). Not everyone comes back during pre-patch and gets the gear that's usually tied in with that. Have a few (not a lot) of BFA crafted sets ready to sell. Stock up on BFA Augmented Runes - get them now while they are dirt cheap and very available!īags will normalize in price again, as many people come back into an expac creating a new character.

Water-walking and water-breathing elixirs as well as invisibility potions. Mount equipment (as someone else mentioned). Have a plan for auctioning if your favorite addon outside of TSM is affected.Ĭonsidering Blizzard announced a nerf incoming to potion cool-downs (much longer time-frames to next usage), you may only want to stock a limited supply.įishing and cooking food, especially speed/haste food and stamina food.

#Bregvids tsm 4 how to#
Back up your TSM and familiarize yourself with how to restore from backup. One addon that is repeatedly affected every single expac is ElvUI, which is why I don't use it, but most auctioning and pricing addons are very, very buggy those first couple of weeks.

Make 2 backups of addons: One that allows for the most minimum of addons, as addon developers are not usually privy to all the new changes (some are kept proprietary until release), and another backup of ALL of your addons (just copy the folder somewhere). Take screenshots of all character's tool bars and talent points for every class you play.

Then you can go full bull-rush into content once your high-pop realm is back up and more stable. Expect it and accept it! Consider making a character on a medium-pop realm just to explore things until your high/full-pop realm comes back online. Stormrage, Proudmoore, Tichondrius, Dalaran, Sargeras, Area 52, and Mal'Ganis are notorious for being the most impacted due to the very high populations there. If you are on a high-pop realm (or several, like me), expect long log-in queues and lots of sudden disconnects that first week of release. But for a general rule of thumb, I always do the following: Opting in and playing Beta will give you an even better idea. We usually get a better idea of what we should be preparing for during the pre-patch event (and studying wowhead info on professions changes). At least that is my past experience, though there are always many ways to capitalize on new in-game content. Beginning of expacs are not usually profitable until around the 3rd week after release.
