Material flipping is another market where my settings are essentially unchanged since Legion. This would regularly sell for more than 5 times crafting cost, and if you priced it lower you would lose out on significant value. The latest example for me was the honorable combatant gir at the beginning of BfA. When should you make specific operations?Įven though this operation will always work, there will be times when making a different setup will be better. You may want to have three operations for the various durations, but it is not necessary. This operation will essentially work for ANY crafted item. With that in mind I set my minimum profit margin to 120%, my normal price to 200% and my maximum price to 500% (or five times the crafting cost). I assume that the profit margin you can get is roughly the same for all items. I make one more important assumption for my auctioning operation for crafted gear. The evergreen auctioning operations for crafted gear In addition to this we have the fact that the crafting price source is always the sum of the current dbmarket of the materials required to craft an item. This is essentially always sold in stacks of 1, because it can only be sold in stacks of 1. The most obvious case where a set of operations will work across expansions is of course crated gear. The market value of any item is revised hourly based on the newest data available through Blizzard’s official Api and some calculations.ĭue to the fact that the price source will automatically adjust itself to reflect the current market price for any item you can make operations that are evergreen! When does this work? This is of course only possible due to the fact that TSM includes dynamic price sources.

This means that for some markets I have been using the exact same operations since Legion, and they will work.

This is so good that you can make operations that will essentially “always work”. One of the absolutely biggest advantages of TSM is the fact that you can separate your logic from the price database.
