So it seems people are really on the fence about which direction the market is going. I'm wondering if I should invest in an inferno MF set or I'm safe in my current route of stockpiling all my gold.

What is everyone else's thoughts?
 
Stock it or invest more in gold find if you're lacking. 1.03 will make top tier items more accessible to everyone.
 
Well, the worst gold can get is $2.50 per mil. Having only 1 account at a conservative 300,000 gph you are still making $12.60 per day of FREE MONEY, and this does not even take into account items that could drop. I personally am going for a balanced approach of buying some items and stashing some gold, that way im hedging each way. You better believe gold is gonna immediately plummet to 2.50 when commodities go live, as per all the guys running a hundred bots that are gonna dump their billions. Even so i think the market will climb back a bit, maybe to like 4-5 bucks per mil, then begin a slow, steady decline back down to a permanent 2.50 (at least til major content update or expansion). Shit if i can pay my electricity bill from doing this ill be one happy camper.

Do you mind elaborating on why this is a good idea? Don't you risk losing all of your stockpiled gold then? Genuinely curious here.

Depends on if you're a smart or a dumb botter.

I am actually somewhat new to this. Im assuming that one would keep a clean account to keep all the gold etc in, so that stuff isn't lost. But why would a banwave occurring be beneficial to someone that has stockpiled. I am really not seeing it and would like to know...

Less kiddos with 1 account botting and selling = lower supply

Imagine 20000 people botting accounts with public bots which "those guys" have decompiled and put warmods out for.
Imagine the banwave banning 19500 of those people botting accounts
Imagine the supply decreasing and the demand staying the same.

Ahhh I see now. What do you mean by "public bots?". Are you talking about AutoIT scripts etc?

Immortal was hardly touched by the banwave btw, they just lack support, and no one has heard from the dev in a good two weeks now. Plus with DB actually being worked on on an hourly basis, the best place to be is here. Hellbuddy got a huge banwave though, mainly because it was free, and so many people using.

Also, I'm saving all of my money until a week or so after the new patch, that is when there will be a lot more great items accessible to people in general, and more people wanting gold for those awesome items =)
 
Why will there be great items accessible before afzer the patch?
 
Because the best drops can now happen in all inferno acts
 
There is no way to predict the best mid-term strategy as of now. Unknowns like number of active players, demographic of players and possibility to be able to farm gold / items after future patches does not allow for _any_ specific strategy to aim for at this moment.
 
stockpile the MF items, because after the patch, everyone and their mother will be farming ACT1 with magic find

Ilvl 63 (best items) will be dropping in A1-3 and with the new Nephalem Valor system you can expect ~3 times more gold loots to drop in the first place. So basically once patch goes live everyone will get a huge nerf *cry attackspeed* and a huge boost *w00t lots of drops* also people will be killing way more champion packs in the first place. And Nephalem Valor will be almost permanently active from the time you attain it until you have completed the act youre in so yes. MASSIVE LOOT BOOST.

I'm saving up for this right now.

Ahh, and since so few people are actually capable of efficiently farmign A3 Inferno ATM. We will also see a massive influx of ilvl 62-63 items. Like 3-5 times more items hitting the market.
 
Forgive me if this seems silly, but wouldn't a massive loot boost lower what items are worth, because more people will be able to find them more easily?
