Gold, SSC and Argent Dawn

Most of my efforts have been focused on either raiding or generating gold this week. I'll start with the non-gold stuff:

I hit exalted with the Argent Dawn by running my wife's alt through Undead Stratholme a bunch of times. No mount dropped, alas. I also did living side, mostly for the Righteous Orbs to sell for the Crusader enchant.

I also did some random BC raids, including killing Lady Vashj in SSC. She's much easier at 80 :)

On the gold front, I am finally getting a solid system together. I'd like to do all of my crafting 1-2 days a week since it takes up so much time. My biggest sticking point was actually getting enough vellums at a decent price. In the end, I got some guild scribes to help me out but for the future, I've decided to level up a scribe solely to help me get cheap vellums. (The markup on the AH is insane - 800% or more.) Tankspiral, my new level 58 Deathknight, is now my new scribe.

Enchants are selling well but I feel like I need to be more agressive with my pricing. The money to be made on bigger enchants like Blade Ward is ridiculous - 200g+. I think it's time that I crash the market a bit since I now know who my competitors are.

I'll finally be picking a good epic gem recipe for my jewelcrafting today. I'm going to get Delicate Cardinal Ruby since it seems to have the most markup (50%) and seems to be selling well.

I hope to finish getting a gold-making system in place this week and finally go back to busting out achievements. 7000 points by the 15th of the month is my current goal.

 8/4/24: [Into the Storm]! I FINALLY had this one pop after over a month of waiting. 8/21/24: Taivan! I finished this with less than a day before TWW came out. 8/28/24: Lots of TWW achievements. I got 80 after three days and maxed out enchanting and did the campaign up until it's blocked. 9/12/24: [Sojourner of Azj-Kahet]! This one took a fair bit of time but was generally fun to do. I'm going to work on the other ones now, zone by zone. 10/20/24: [Loremaster of Khaz Algar]!  

Remember to Share (300 Toys)!

This one has taken a while. I finally picked up 300 toys (and thus the mount for the achievement) after starting to seriously work on my Archaeology achievements for the first time. I've been doing the fortnightly Legion archaeology quests for a while (and thus had 800 skill) but I completely ignored this profession in earlier expansions as it seemed seriously boring. With some knowledge and a good addon, it's much better however. Some tips if you're just starting to work on archaeology: 1. Download the "Archy" addon. This addon does several things: first, it shows you the location and completion status of all digsites in the current continent. Second, it automatically sets the closes one as a waypoint for TomTom. Third, it indicates when it's possible to solve an artifact with and without a keystone, so you don't have to constantly check your archaeology screen. On top of that, the distance indicator shows when you are in the correct range from your ...

[3,445 of 5,450] You Know How to Reach Me

 7/3/24: [Neltharion's Legacy] and [Legend of the Multiverse]! I picked this up from the weekly time vault. [Scroll Hunter]! This one I am happy to be done with. I thought it was going to be a lot harder - wowhead comments imply as much. In the end it probably took two hours of farming Froststone Vault with crystals. [Treasures of Thaldraszus]! 7/8/24: [Treasures of the Azure Span]! [Wake Me Up]! [Treasure Hunter of the Dragon Isles]! [Treasures of the Waking Shores]! I have no more treasures to find! This one promised to be a slog but actually was easy enough, I just picked up Disturbed Dirt and Expedition Packs while doing other things like hunts. 7/9/24: [Forbidden Spoils]! 7/11/24: [Hunt Master]! I finally figured out how hunts work and realized that they don't show up until you are actually in the zone. As a result I can finally work on [Disgruntled Hunter] [Under the Weather]! I just logged in every two hours and got all three I was missing in a row!   7/13/24: I've b...
