Anybody notice good, new market opportunies or shifts with 1.11?

I mean new demand for specific items which will now dramatically increase in value due to quest/dungeon additions.

Things like that.

New dungeon requires them for getting attuned, right? How hard is this new dungeon? MC? BWL? AQ? If it's high level, that means there wont be that much more demand on these crystals than there already is. If it's akin to MC then the demand could jack up a bit.

Naxx is going to be way hard.

But everybody will want to get attuned.

Not if it costs them 400g and they arent even likely to be running it...

Revered is like 2 nexus crystals and 1 arcane crystal + 30g
Honored is like 2 nexus, 5 arcane, 1 orb, and 60g.

Exalted is free I believe.

Yea, I've been making tons of frost resist pots, and also bought the +8 frost resist shield enchant which should sell quite nicely in the coming weeks.

Wait...

I poked my head into Naxx last night and didnt get the sense frost was a huge focus. I saw abominations, undead, spiders, etc.

Is frost really vital for the bosses?3

And honestly, how many raiders are going to be doing this dungeon?

I barely poked around in there, but i didnt get tossed around by the spiders. I wonder what the counter is for that...

while you're never going to get past level 29 twinking alts, those of us who raid are level 60 with nothing to do, and aq sucks

in short, everyone is going to be doing this dugeon

If it's anything like AQ where only a few people need high resists and I'm able to wear full healing gear for every fight then I'm not too worried about frost resist.

Undeads are usually associated with Frost and Shadow, Tse.

The ones in Naxx are Frost. All the new AD recipes have big amounts of Frost resist on them, so I assume that's what Naxx requires.

There was also something in a recent interview to the effect of "we screwed up in AQ by requiring nature resist for the bosses that drop nature resist gear". One possible interpretation of that is that the first few bosses in Naxx will drop frost resist stuff that will be needed for the later bosses.

They said that the easiest boss encounter in Naxx will be equivalent to Twin Emperors.

Naxx is going to be shadow (undead, necromancers, death knights, etc), nature (undead plague, spider venom, possible frankenstein-y electricity), and frost (frost wyrm dragons and at the very least the lich at the end). That's pretty much what everybody's been led to believe. To be honest though I'd be surprised if there wasn't some fire thrown in, just to make that old gear useful again. There really isn't enough arcane resistance in the game to allow for a full on arcane resist fight at the moment, but I really wouldn't put anything past blizzard.

Sadly though the fights I've looked at so far revolve heavilly around being able to avoid getting hit, as the first bosses in two of the wings can (and do) one shot full tier 2 clad tanks, and are extremely execution oriented. The first spider boss is the only one that seems like it won't be a total pain in the ass, and is just genuinely hard - but more or less just a fankriss type fight.

Maybe stock up on stonescale eels.

Oh, nice attempt to make this personal... :lol:

The point still stands. FEW of the guilds in existence and even fewer of the total population... even touch BWL or higher dungeons. Period. Posture all you want but that's the truth.

I'm interested in real info about the real market potential here, not petty RPG ego e-penis waving.
