Cured rugged hide drop rate increased 3-5 per 3 days (was 1 per 3 days). Arcanite bar 2-4 per 2 days (was 1 per 2 days). Mooncloth 3-5 per 4 days (was 1 per 4 days). Arcane crystals drop rate from veins also increased a lot. Is this really not enough? Maybe the problem is players who dont want to do any efforts and want to get everything for free? Classic (and sod) is not just naxx raiding simulator when u can only go raid once a week and do nothing else, it’s a game with many aspects including gold farming.
I know could be much worse, but comparing cost previous phases to this is telling a lot.
Also some of those changes were made start of phase 4, and haven’t been updated.
And think it’s very simple, people are quitting over this insane price hike, this isn’t IRL we come here escape that stuff.
Having lower cost tier wasn’t an issue previous phases so why do some support this inflation? Others not allowed to have fun?
I just wouldn’t bother with these people. Wow is life and you cannot change that for them. Alice is stuck in the rabbit hole…
Why they should be updated? You had 8 months and all CDs for full leather set could be crafted in 42 days (or even less if good procs)
Think you are right
Cost is too high for a alt friendly seasonal game like SoD.
It was fine in Classic to have high prices like this, and I don’t mind paying full price/full farm on my main character but Naxx being so accessible you are bound to have a couple of alts ready to get in.
Even just gearing that off spec if your guild needs you to have one starts being real costly.
Sod is really very inflated compared to classic and this amount of gold is much easier to farm in sod then it was in classic
Yeah it’s true but it’s still too much when it comes to an alt-friendly game like SoD.
Farming a few thousand golds for your main every week is doable but when you triple it, it becomes a tad much.
You can level letherworking and get many gold passively. Now we know that crafted items on p8 that also req for tier also req cured rugged hide so you can now level leatherworking without risk and get a lot of profit in future
Yeah you’re absolutely right. But since the Arcanite Bars can be found in crates it wouldn’t be a wild stretch to also add Cured Rugged Hides and Mooncloth as well.
The two can coexist.
Finally someone has seen the light!
Can’t, it ruined alchemy CDs because arcanite bar cost so much only because arcane crystal cost so much, and real profit for transmute is not so much (and some time ago you would even lose some gold if do transmute because 2 arcanites were less then 1 arcane crystal, now you can get some gold for it but not very much compared to leatherwork or tailor CDs).
I think professions CDs is a good way to earn passive gold if you really want it, levelling leatherworking to 250 (to make refined deeprock salt) is less then 2 hours, and all gold you spend for it you will get back in 1-2 CDs, so there is no reason to not level letherworking (especially if you are playing leather class), and your only excuse if you didn’t level it is “I am just too lazy to spend 2 hours”, instead of just spending 2 hours you want ruin this gold making method for everyone else, just because you are lazy to level profession
I managed to purchase 6pieces including the ring on my ONLY alliance character after simple farming and a few minutes on AH every day. Still have 3k gold on it to go, might just grab 6p tank while at it. also got 2full sets on horde with 4.5k to boot cuz I saved up 80 mooncloth
Guys, I don’t want to be mean but we don’t care about how smart you think you are.
Prices are a tad too high atm for those mats. It’s usually not a big deal since those with less game time tend to gear more slowly and mats usually get cheaper as we go but since those will remain in high demand for next phase as well, it won’t go down at all.
As you all said earlier, you have plenty of ways to make money in this game and you already stacked all the necessary mats for every possible craft of the next few years.
No need to hand it for free but balance it so everyone can access them more easily.

Level professions and go farm shi for 1hr. craft every 3-4 days, there is no problem in doing so regardless of how big of a casual andy you are. God damn entitlement be on a whole other lvl.
Prices are too high ONLY because people are lazy to level professions. All mats rates already buffed *3-5 compared to classic, it’s enough. Just spend 2 hours level leatherwork and dont complain
Chuck arcane crystal in there while you’re at it.
its been 4 days man. give it a rest.
play the game.
data mine leaks are out for next phase so prepare accordingly and become rich.
had about enough of seeing this thread be on top of the forum page.
Big changes in P8 for the crafted gear now
Tier 3 material cost updated on PTR
