- Children's Week: Selling Small Eggs Farmed from Dragonhawks in Eversong Woods.
- 16:34 Don't mess with the Eggpimp!
- 21:00 Infinite Dust selling well. (Made from disenchanting jewelery made with extra Lich King uncommon gems created as a by-product of prospecting Saronite Ore to get gems to make Icy Prisms now that the Icy Prism cooldown is removed.)
- 24:04 How Jokine has been making gold this week.
- Shuffling massive amounts of Cataclysm ore.
- 25:10 Transmuting, cutting and auctioning Ember Topaz and Demonseye from Hessonite and Nightstone.
- 28:14 Carnelians are either turned into Greater Celestial Essence (via crafting and disenchanting Carnelian Spikes) or transmuted into Inferno Rubies.
- 30:21 Purchasing blue and yellow Cataclysm rare gem cut recipes with jewelcrafting daily tokens to help increase the value of gems by cutting them.

- 39:29 Jokine explains in-depth how to flip iLevel 359 epic items for profit.
- 40:16 Recommended addons used for flipping epics: Auctioneer and TradeSkillMaster
- 42:53 All Cataclysm epics are not created equal. Heroic Zul'Aman/Zul'Gurub iLevel 353 epics are not the same as traditional iLevel 359 epics. ILevel 353 epics are much more common and lower priced. Stick to iLevel 359 epics.
- 44:55 TradeSkillMaster to give direction on prices.
- 45:20 Try to find cheap epics BEFORE you do your scan to keep the higher prices present in the addon.
- 48:05 People buying epics may wait a long time to decide to finally purchase a Cataclysm epic.

- 52:26 flux decides to put "Project Goblin" on hiatus in order to transfer back a level 82 to be his the main Horde trading character on his account (he plays mostly Alliance).

- 55:40 Sometimes it is just better to leave gold on the opposite faction rather than risk losing value in the process of moving it across.

- 1:00:58 Watch for Burgy Blackheart who drops the Burgy Blackheart's Handsome Hat which turns you into a ghostly gnome pirate. Arrrr me mateys!
- 1:04:38 Making gold farming ore while leveling a character through battlegrounds and dungeons.

2015 in absentia - I almost can't believe this is my first post in more than a year. I post glyphs just recently, and it was the first time in three months. So I thought I'...
Loved it! If you ever think of doing Project Not Actually a Goblin you should do it on Argent Dawn Alliance so we can chat when you're messing around on your alt. =D
ReplyDeleteI had a lot of fun doing the interview, I'm always up to return if you ever need to fill some time. :) Oh, and for those curious, we were able to get our Bear Runs accomplished properly. :P Just takes some coordination! There's hope!
@Faid I may take you up on that offer. I'd just hope the server wouldn't implode due the shear awesomeness of both our egos residing so close together.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for being on the podcast. If people couldn't tell I was a but star-struck by having you on.
Maybe I'll be lucky enough to get a short MP3 "Fadian Slip Gold Tip" from you to tide me over until we can have you on again.
awesomesauce.
ReplyDelete...also, might i add that almost any idea jokinee has i have just barely started doing the same things as him. i am sad to say that i just hit about 4k again, due to helping my guild progress with flasks and buying epics for another 85 to be able to raid with. i will get back to 50k soon then i can invest monies again =) Jokinee you are the man! Flux, you are a genious, but not as cool as jokinee =) you both are awesomesauce.
@shannon haha! Thanks for listening and hope you will listen our podcast in future.
ReplyDeleteI think our show is improving all the time and we try to keep doing quality 2~ hour shows
Also im trying to improve my english ^^
your "engrish" is perfect. i understand what you try to say, dont try correcting yourself as much. we understand your finish* accent just fine. you speak one language that i understand and that is "gold" or as you would say "kulta" =).
ReplyDeletewell i gues ill put it here. i was taking the advice i asked you about whether to drop herbalism for tailoring? well i hardly spent much money till i hit frostweave and embersilk cloth. i need some infinite dust for some designs and so i de'd some stuff i made already with the frostweave i had bought. well, here is the thing....infinite dust, on my server im sure yours is as well, extremely high and still in demand. i suggest this to anyone that has tailoring to work on a cloth shuffle, i think it could work. =)
ReplyDelete@Shannon Nice find! I have been doing a "Saronite Shuffle". Making/DEing jewelery from the LK uncommons I don't use for Icy Prism.
ReplyDeleteFrostweave cloth is going for very high prices on my server at times and I'd imagine you've found why.
Need to get farming Northrend for cloth on one of my tailors.
i got llucky and traded xtra whiptail i had in my bank for frostweave and i took a potion of treasure finding in hyjal with humanoids to get most of my cloth there. it was very nice when i found my fortune cookie gave me 5k. now i dont know if this is actually true, but i seem to get bigger winners from fortune cards when i use them as buff food cookies.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Podcast as allways guys!
ReplyDeleteI did't find the time to play a lot since I started work again, but the show is totaly entertaining nevertheless ;-)
Thanks again and again for the shoutout and your kind words on my guest post. I'm on a shoutout hotstreak now! Yay!
It was fun to do the little article because it helps you refining a gold making strategy once you summarize and write everything down. I can only recommend it to anybody who has a unique idea to try it out.
i want to podcast and blog ideas, but i have never done either and i wouldn't know where to start. i do love helping out others always.
ReplyDeleteGreat show guys. You should coerce Faid to join the two of you as a third cohost! The interview was great fun.
ReplyDeleteAh comments are back online. Unfortunately mine was delted :-(
ReplyDeleteGreat show as allways!
Thanks a ton for the shoutout and your kind words on my post. I'm on a shoutout hotstreak now! Yay!
@Jokine: As you are from Finland I assume you're into Metal, am I right? I love the northern accent^^.
Been a busy week and the Reins of Poseidus is on the AH with an alt as a seller.
ReplyDeleteAwesome stuff as expected. This is the number one gold podcast in my book. Always true to the gold making side of things with good discussions. Another good thing is that you don't spend time plugging your blog posts without discussing them in-depth. The JMTC meetings are filled with "i wrote about this on my blog, so read it", instead of just sharing the information during the recording.
Also the fact that you don't say "buy insert guide name here" instead of giving a concrete example of the content is another thing that makes this podcast keep a higher quality.
Long story short, You talk about what you bring up and you talk about it all the way. Like two friends chatting rather than 'sellers' trying to 'promote' their products, which pisses me off after 3 attempts during one recording and usually it's more like 7+ times haha.
End of rant <3
