State of the Library, Part Three

Wow, been two weeks.  Patch 3.3 has launched and I've been dragged through more heroics than I can count.  The Librarian is fast approaching level 60 and is sitting on almost 3000 ink of the sea to process into glyphs when his skill maxes out.  Liquid assets total around 25k and I still have around 30-40k in the auction house at any given time.  Not a lot of growth, per se, but a lot of investment in herbs/ink.

Posted a challenge on my guild forums to CoD me ore/herbs at a set price, looking to turn it over by professions pretty well.  My scroll market is moving along steadily netting me 20-150g profit per scroll.  Flask prices shot up and there are no lotus to be found anywhere so I'm stalling there a bit but otherwise doing well.

State of the Library, Part Two

Hello and Welcome to the Library!

The Librarian is now level 48 and well on his way towards getting max Inscription.  As a bit of a lark I've been leveling in my Battered Jungle Hat, Antique Silver Cufflinks and Tuxedo along with my Heirlooms.

I recently installed Big Picture, an Auctioneer Advanced Module which tracks your net value as judged by Auctioneer.  It's pretty interesting but I feel that it may not be terribly accurate on a moment to moment basis.  I've found it misses gold that I have recently placed in my bank, along with having issues tracking auction based income.  That aside, The Library is valued at approximately 50k.

Not a bad little benchmark, but I'd like to double that by Christmas, not impossible by any means.  I currently am processing Greens into Scroll of Enchant XXX, transmuting Epic Gems, producing Flasks, and crafting and selling Belt Buckles.  Those industries along with the occasional Runed Orb have seen my wealth grow pretty steadily.

My Farmers seem to have taken the holidays off, so my stock of herbs is running lower than I'd like.  Only a tab and a half of Lichbloom/Icethorn and I'm virtually out of Frost Lotus as well.

We'll see what the next week brings.

Busy pre-holidays.

Been working a lot in the real world, got to love the pre-holiday season.  Invested some of my liquid assets into enchanting mats, tweaked my snatcher settings and set up Dis-enchanter settings.  Hope to start making 100g/day profit off that soonish.  Librarian in level 44 now, creeping steadily towards 65.

That's all for now folks.

Crazy deals...

Ended up acquiring over 200 stacks of Icethorn from one of my farmers.  Got a legit price for the lot and now have surplus coming out my ears. Going to see what sort of gold I can make off it.

Post Raid

Wrapped up Ony/ToC/Uld in four hours last night.  Came in number two on dps and number one on damage done, a good night for me as usual.  After ToC I got my Tier 9 Pants, giving my my four piece bonus.  Seeing an improvement in damage already, helps to even out my damage and help on movement fights.

Logged off the main and unto Librarian.  Picked up a couple thousand gold and called it a night.

The Quest to 450 Inscription.

I'm a rather poor Librarian,

You see, as a lower level banking alt in the past I neglected both leveling and professions.  Now, however, I've seen the error of my ways and am pushing to leveling Inscription.  The reasons should be pretty obvious but if not read both here and here, when you're done come back.

Now that we're on the same page....  I'm leveling this alt so that I have access to the highest level glyphs around and can start cutting into that market.  From what I can tell there are already a few goblins on my server, horde side, but there's always room for competition the way I see it.
