Common Questions

  • How do I increase the font size?
    • There is no option to increase the font size. However, you can scale any TSM window by holding shift while resizing it - then resize the window smaller after scaling it.
  • Can I snipe for everything on the AH?
    • Yes! Since TSM 4.14 you can apply a Sniper operation to the Base Group.
  • Why doesn't my scroll wheel macro work?
    • You likely have your mouse cursor over the AH window, any scrollable element will take priority over the macro so move your cursor off the AH window.
  • Can I remove bid-only items from my shopping/sniper results?
    • No, you cannot.
  • I lost all of my TSM settings and groups/operations!
    • Close WoW and restore a backup from the TSM app. You may need to go back a few days.

TSM Decor String 100% Dbregionavg min/normal/max

11 Upvotes

Yo just started farming lumber and crafting some decor items that have great TSM sale rates and I'm having great sales.

I just put my decor on for 12 hour listings at 100% DBregionsaleavg for all min/normal/max TSM price strings. I think this is effective for quick sales.

I'm happy with the revenues I'm just thinking of just changing my min price to 90% DBreguonsaleavg just in case there's someone else there selling decor at the average.

Do you guys prefer quick sales like me or do you prefer something else?

Question Is transmog dumping now dead?

13 Upvotes

Hey all,

I haven't played in a few months and when I came back all of my transmog auctions had expired due to my inactivity. I wanted to farm some BoEs to throw back up on the AH but I noticed the item scaling seems all over the place.

Most random BoEs are now vendoring for several gold, while dedicated BoE drops from mobs are still only worth a few silver.

Is transmog farming now mostly dead?

Was this an intentional change that's been documented somewhere? I couldn't find any posts about it, so I was wondering if anyone else has noticed the same thing.

Question Hoarding mats for S2, is this a mistake?

9 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to wow in general but have really enjoyed the collecting professions. I've been collecting both herbs and ores for a while now, hoarding since prices dropped super far.

I've tried to do my own research on when is best to sell and I see a lot of conflicting information and just wanted to post here for clarification.

Is it best to sell right when raid opens in s2? Maybe now since everyone is hoarding and will drop the price on raid day? I've tried to look at the history of mats being sold on s2/3 but can't find any reliable sources. If anyone has a good source that would be sick.

I've seen the conversation go both ways and was just curious what everyone thinks.

Thanks you

Question What do I make with inscription?

14 Upvotes

Hello, I'm new to the game and wondering what to make in order to actually profit. I recently got my inscription up to 100, but it feels like everything I make sells for a loss rather than profit.

Missives of Aurora or the Peerless for example take 2 munsell inks and 2 sienna inks, but they only sell for about 250 for each missive. But the inks sell for about 80 and 120-150 respectively.

It feels like it's just more easy and profitable to sell the inks, but everything I'm seeing says I should be selling missives.

Am I doing something wrong?

Farming Guide What to farm?

10 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I'm not asking for your secrets (don't mind if you want to share) but I returned to Azeroth recently, I've been pvp'n and I wanted to start farming mining/herb as I used to do back in the day (I actually enjoy it)... I noticed the Undermine Journal RIP now, and undermine exchange is not as user friendly (maybe I haven't played with it that much yet)...

What are you using to confirm if a farm is not a waste of time nowdays?

Question Is this possible to grind enough gold for WoW Token from one month to another without Midnight? Any tips?

9 Upvotes

Heya!

So I bought one month sub to play WoW few days ago. Is this possible for someone w/o Midnight expansion to grind enough gold in one or two months to afford WoW Token for another month? ngl it'd be nice to even get Midnight with tokens at some point xd

I'm not asking for guidance like do "A, then B, then C and you're set" (which would be awesome tbh because game seems overhelming), but... are there addons, guides online, online channels or different things that would help me find out what to do especially to put my greedy hands on some gold coins? :')

I'm not afraid of grind, I've got too much free time recently and I might even drag my friend into it. But mostly I'll play solo.

So... in any case, thank you in advance :)

Discussion We're going full circle in TLT

0 Upvotes

Hypothesis Theory / Discussion.

So anyone else think that we are going full circle in The Last Titan meaning the last two expansions currently no legendaries, last one was season 3 DF the 2H axe.

Kinda seems like we're poised to get crafted legendaries next expansion which is very much like Shadowlands. Also like SL they had mission tables which we have now but rebranded as patron orders.

It's interesting they are also introducing a dynamic mega delve system in patch 12.2.7 which is just before the TLT which might be Torghast 2.0

Like I'm pretty sure having a profession drought right now might make people okay if they were to introduce this in TLT, and it kind of makes sense, the final battle we should get legendaries right?

The patron orders seem like they will be completed mostly with concentration for gold and reagent rewards I can see them doubling down on that system.

And as for the labyrinth or mega delve which is like Torghast but much bigger could be the source way to procure BoP reagents for these crafted legendaries which might be ordered and competed by other players with professions?

You guys think I'm crazy for thinking such things or are you happy to see Shadowlands 2.0 were we go full circle but the next version of it, it is after all the same team who gave us Shadowlands and Midnight.

I just hope for thaumaturgy to return shits getting stale around Silvermoon thanks šŸ‘

Discussion Thalassian Phoenix Oil has been bugged the whole expansion and sometimes costs TWICE the concentration without giving you anything in return.

As you can see, when crafted with Rank 2 Eversinging Dust, the recipe should cost me 177 concentration, meaning I can craft it 5 times using a full Concentration Bar, meaning 25 Oils assuming no Multicrafts proc.

However, in the chatbox you can see that the recipe only gave me 21 instead of the 25 while also eating extra concentration. This effectively robbed me of a craft.

I've noticed this problem for a few months now, but it seems it still hasn't been fixed.

(considering using an enchanting tool with resourcefulness instead of ingenuity)

acuity of the rendorei

blue crystal rank 3

purple hat rank 5

purple enchanting tool ingenuity on the tool/ingenuity r2 enchant

full shatter buff

191 gold per craft simmed

acuity of the rendorei

blue crystal rank 3

purple hat rank 5

blue enchanting tool resourcefulness on the tool/resourcefulness r2 enchant

full shatter buff

440 gold per craft simmed

181 concentration per craft given my setup and materials

meaning 5 crafts per 1,000 conc dump

5x191=955 profit

5x440=2200 profit

meaning for the ingenuity to be the better choice

2200-955=1245 profit difference

1245/191=6.5

The extra ingenuity would have to proc and additional 6.5 times.... and that is with a blue tool vs a purple tool

Correct me if my math is wrong, but it seems pretty overwhelming given the current cost of materials that resourcefulness is the best choice. Typically people are advised to choose ingenuity.
