30 Days of GatherBuddy

[Honzo]

I am creating a blog detailing my experiences with GatherBuddy for 30 days. Each blog will contain reports of the night before as well as reports of my profits.

can't wait to see how it goes.

Do you have specific plans or just grab everything in your profile and straight to the AH ?

Day 2: http://www.buddyforum.de/blog.php?22444-Honzo

As for a plan: my current goal is to see how much money I can accumulate over a 30 day trial of GB. Plan: Ores - Find private buyers (my server has a good Saronite economy and large enough player base so I should never need to smelt them). Another possibility for my saronite is doing the saronite shuffle (I use to do this about 6 months ago which I made over 100k with). Herbs - since my server has a very large raiding base, flasks sell almost instantly on Tuesdays-Thursdays. So I want to set up an alchemy character in order to maximize my profits on herbs. I don't believe Inscription will be worth it but I will have to calculate the profit margins on it. With the flasks I plan on finding a guild to privately sell to, which should be relatively easy.

TL;DR: If its worth doing the Saronite Shuffle, Alchemy, Inscription I will begin using those professions to maximize profits.

Is the saronite shuffle still viable in this late stage of Wrath? What's the min/max value saronite needs to be to make it work?

Day 7: http://www.buddyforum.de/blog.php?22444-Honzo

@thedon19, I actually covered that in Day 4. I included a spreadsheet (made by n0skillS @ mmowned) that actually calculates if it is worth it. Anyways, no it probably isn't worth it anymore (although you should check the spreadsheet).

No more updates obviously because I cannot bot anymore till GB gets updated for the new patch. Once GB updated I will re-continue posting.
