If it mysteriously appears, I'll get rid of this one.<br /><br />The TL;DR of it is: A) there are undocumented changes every patch release, so just because we aren't seeing it explicitly spelled out that the vendor prices are changing, doesn't mean they won't. B) Nearly everyone admits this current vendor price is out of whack and NEEDS fixing. It doesn't make sense for uncommon gems to vendor for more than rare gems. C) The sky isn't falling either way, as all that changes is the price floor becomes variable instead of static - Ore will get pegged at the highest price part of the Shuffle.Azurielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16581263347888757710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047964376363882750.post-90278206363118407262011-04-10T04:38:04.784-05:002011-04-10T04:38:04.784-05:00Look at this list of undocumented changes for 4.0....Look at <a href="http://www.wowpedia.org/Patch_4.0.6_%28undocumented_changes%29" rel="nofollow">this list</a> of undocumented changes for 4.0.6.

How could it be considered intended for the uncommon gems to vendor for more than the rare gems? Or the uncommons to vendor for the SAME as epic gems of the last expansion?<br /><br /><i>Blizzard would not "stealth change" something this big.</i><br /><br />lolwut? There are a ton of undocumented changes every single patch. Where were the patch notes revealing how the Deviate Scale Belt pattern was removed from the game (along with many other old-world recipes)? It is almost as though you have never searched Wowpedia for lists of undocumented changes. <a href="http://www.wowpedia.org/Patch_4.0.3a_%28undocumented_changes%29" rel="nofollow">Here is the page for 4.03a</a>.<br /><br />In any case, I agree on the points that data-mined info should be considered guilty until proven innocent, and that the sky is not falling. If the vendor price gets dropped, all that does is remove the mindless safety net, replacing it with one that is pegged at the value of the individual components of the Shuffle. Plus, you know, it might make sense to actually sell cut gems on the AH since the deposit fee won't be ridiculous.Azurielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16581263347888757710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047964376363882750.post-73353417750845269772011-04-10T04:06:29.547-05:002011-04-10T04:06:29.547-05:00Its funny u should bring this up because I was thi...Its funny u should bring this up because I was thinking the same thing to be honest... it does seem funny that people are buying into the mmo-champions notes which as of late I've considered the tmz of wow....<br />Until the offical patch notes or ptr are updated with this change I'm continuing with the shuffle as usual.<br />This could be a golden buying opportunity though as people who are unaware of when the patch hits could panic and wind up dumping all their obsidium ore thinking they don't have enough time to prospect it all <br />I've already managed to snag 30-40 stacks of it at 30G a stackstormnoreply@blogger.com
