So that explains why Silverleaf and peace bloom are selling by fives for 7g-10g. I actually brought this up earlier before thumbing through the blog this far. BTW this is a great blog to read, been having a great time just browsing. Ah HA! So that explains why Silverleaf and peace bloom are selling by fives for 7g-10g.

I have to be honest, I was a bit overexcited and I completely blew up the herb prices ><, within 1 day the prices of silverleaf and peacebloom went from 50s - 1g to 5-15 gold, lol. Funny what 1500 gold can do :P. Any tips of how to sell them when the patch is out? Are there any tactics of how to sell them in a way you'll get the most profit?

However according to posters on the WOW WOTLK forums Dk starts inscription at 250 / 275 ( I read it a while ago and so don't remember exact number) but it was def. in that margin. So anyone wishing to level a DK with inscription and has been buying low level herbs Aparentely you have been wasting time and money :p Ok someone said way up near the top that the death knight would be hard to level/pointless (i forget exact words) because it would start at a high level zone with high level herbs but low level inscription.

Regarding methods of carrying the goods, I've also heard of players creating a Guild Bank, and storing all the product for the power levelling pack in there. They invite bidders to the guild and let them see the materials within the bank. Once the funds are transferred (or a hefty deposit, depending upon how you choose to arrange it), they promote the purchaser to a rank which allows them to withdraw, and let them clean it out. It certainly makes it easier for players to store materials, and may give purchasers slightly more comfort around getting shortchanged, etc. Cheers for the mention guys! /preen.

It just says that certain pomaces can be milled from certain herbs - example L1 pomace can be milled from: Earthroot OR Peacebloom OR SilverleafOR mageroyal. Only one or two inks says they require specific herbs or pomaces. Anyway, it is all still up in the air: will the scarce herbs be required, or not? I hope soo since I sure spent a lot cornering the swifthistle masrket! Anyone have more insight in to this issue?

I forsee the pre-OL herb market going silly for a few weeks, so it may be a good opportunity to secure your herbs now (either for self-levelling or on-selling). Has anybody had any success in the past with putting together tradeskill power levelling materials packs? I hear them selling for many thousands, but I haven't really looked into whether you can command much of a mark up. Hi all,

I'm guessing that the expansion will obviously start a new arena season due to the new level cap, and just like the top-end Grand Marshal's gear from Pre-BC, so will the Brutal Gladiator gear likewise become the new general honor purchases. Or... maybe they won't aim that high, and will cut off the PvP gear offerings lower down the totem pole. Any ideas? Anyone in beta see a list of what rewards are offered?
