Just found another great benefit of being an engineer. Engineers have the easiest time controlling the Frozen Orb > Eternal Echange Market. Frozo the Orb Exchanger is located right outside the Dalaran Engineering Building, which houses the Engineer Only Auction House Access in Dalaran. Also close by are the Anvil/Forge, Mailbox, and the Heavy Borean Leather to Arctic Fur Exchanger. The close proximity of both the Exchangers and the Auction House, make this an easy spot to search for Orbs then convert them into the more higher prices Eternal flavor of the night. This can also be done swapping heavy borean leathers as well.
So you do a search and see that Frozen Orbs are at 22g, and Eternal Life is at 36g and Eternal Fire is at 38g. What do you do?
I'm going to have to give this a go. It could be a particularly effective strategy on my realm, where the horde side have Wintergrasp 95% of the time (very horde heavy on the A:H ratio here), so alliance can't farm Eternal Fires fires as much. Eternal fires are expensive on the Alliance AH. One strategy is to go log into my horde and buy out a few stacks of eternal fires them, then cross-faction sell them but of course there's always a risk involved with posting them on the cheap at the neutral AH. I have an alliance engineer so I'm going to try this. I have a feeling the profit on the exchange could be up to 20G each! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteOn my realm, Frozen orbs and Eternal Fire are the same price, so doing this is pointless. Its a great idea, but everyone know about this, Eternal prices drop drastically.
