Dungeon Dive: 100 Runs of Sunwell Plateau (41-50]

stargrace November 29, 2023 0Comment

Well, this week we’re up to 2.5h spent running Sunwell plateau, and we’re also up to 144,432g in actual sales! That brings our current GPH to 57,772g.

Runs 51-60 were pretty uneventful, as you can tell by the LootAppraiser screenshot above, I looted 3 noteworthy items, and only walked away with an appraisal of 55k gold. That is of course grossly over estimated on my high pop realm. Right now I have around 44,000g worth of items on the AH, most of our recipes sold this week, hence the 57k gph. Let’s look at the numbers:

Total approx gold earned (runs1-50): 779,000g
Actual amount earned from sales to date: 144,432g
Actual amount of GPH: 57,772g
Value of items on the AH: 44,000g

Honestly, for 2.5h of work, I’m pretty happy with 144k in gold. That’s not too bad at all. Still, a lot does depend on RNG and your servers market. If you’re on a low population server you may find sales sparse, but when they happen, they’ll be big. If you’re on a high population realm like I am, sales may be pennies, but you make a lot of them, and they add up over time. It’s a fascinating challenge, and I’m always excited to see what loot I may walk away with. We’ll see next week if we can get closer to that 60k gph, although with this weeks abysmal run, I won’t hold my breath.

Dungeon Dive: 100 Runs of Sunwell Plateau (31-40)

stargrace November 22, 2023 0Comment

A total of 2h of goldmaking and 40 runs of Sunwell Pleateau (trash only) and this is what LootAppraiser has told us the potential gains have been for this week: 106,240g

Total approx gold earned (runs1-40) is: 724,315g
Actual amount earned from sales to date: 74,969g
Actual amount of GPH: 37,484g

Value of items on the AH: 120,564g

While the numbers of estimated gold and actual gold are still pretty sparse, it’s not all doom and gloom. Gold IS being made, and if doing these dungeon runs is something you enjoy, then there’s absolutely no harm in running them and putting everything you obtain up for sale. Making 37k gph is not a horrible feat. You might also just get a lot more lucky than I have with sales, I’m currently playing on a high population server, and sometimes there’s a lot of competition (or I just don’t have anything valuable up on the AH when someone wants it). This week some recipes finally sold (the goggles are fast movers these days as they’re tied to an achievement) and a few grey/white items. Nothing of very high value, but at only 2h spent, I’m not going to complain too much. Let’s see what next week brings!

Dungeon Dive: 100 Runs of Sunwell Plateau [21-30]

stargrace November 15, 2023 0Comment

We’re on 1h30m of gold making after 30 runs of Sunwell Plateau, and this is what LootAppraiser has told us the potential gains have been:

1-10: 122,091g (estimated)
11-20: 252,247g (estimated)
21-30: 253,737g (estimated)

Total: 618,075g (approx: 412,050g per hour)

Actual amount earned to date: 35,229g (approx: 23,486g per hour)

Amount still on the auction house: 272,155g

The numbers of actual gold earned vs. estimated gold earned are VASTLY different – but – making 20k an hour (give or take) may not be a horrible investment of time if you’re enjoying what you’re doing. I did pick up a fair number of recipes this past run, so we’ll have to see where sales go in the future. Keep in mind this is on a high population server and your own gains may be lower or higher than the TSM region market value average that I’m using as a price point.

Dungeon Dive: 100 Runs of Sunwell Plateau [11-20]

stargrace November 8, 2023 0Comment

Last week I did my first 10 runs of Sunwell Plateau, and LootAppraiser told me I had a looted item value of 122091g in 30 minutes. This week I ran another 10 dungeons, and LA gave me 252,247g in valued items. In actuality, with sales, I’ve earned 436g (that’s the raw gold from this week) plus 7,757g (that’s how much everything sold for this week) plus the 483g in raw gold from last week. That brings me to a total of estimated looted: 374,338g in 1h of farming. Actual gold earned with raw + sales: 8,676g. Now, earning 8,676g in an hour of farming isn’t exactly THAT bad, but it sure isn’t that great, either – and it’s a far cry from what LootAppraiser claims I’ve made. The plus side is that I do also have a lot of stock – and that has value even though it hasn’t sold yet. Right now my stock value is:

Now if those items sell, that would be fantastic. Even if a small number of it sold it would be great. Right now though we’re just sitting on stock hoping it sells, with a total of less than 10k gold per hour.

We’ll just have to see what next week brings!
