Interesting that you ignore opportunity cost. Do your Snowfall inks really sell for only 9g each on that server? (54/6=9) Why do you ignore the cost of Ink of the Sea? I’d estimate your cost is more akin to 160g~ a card.

You can't really plan on getting a full deck by yourself, what you have to do is go ahead and start crafting them, I'd say about 20 crafts should give you one of the decks near completion.

What will happen is you'll have some duplicates of a card, you can sell that duplicate and use that money to buy up whichever card you are missing.

In this video I made 14 crafts, got 6 out of 8 nobles, but had 2 duplicates. I put those up for sale and bought out the missing ones I had which covered my costs.

Each craft will give you a 1/32 chance of getting the card you want, and seeing as how you get duplicates that chance always stays the same. but if you want a rough estimate I'd say it'd take around 16-32 crafts = 1,760g – 3,520g to get all cards to make a deck. but you can sell the remaining 8-24 cards to recoup the costs.

Hey Will, I currently have 6000 gold, if you had to make an estimation, how much gold will it cost to get a full deck worth of cards? I know the cards are at random, but an educated guess would be greatly appreciated.

I’m sure it is random with the cards I did just get lucky, but I averaged out the price of all the darkmoon cards that I could make, which came out to 250g average, and the cost to make each was 108g.

So over a period of time it would have evened out to more like 150g profit per card rather than the 350g per card I was getting in this video. but still profitable non the less.

I wish getting full stacks for 1g, I had the “show stacks by price per unit” clicked off at the bottom… so it was 1g PER Adder’s Tongue.

Nice vid you hit a nice streak there on the nobles cards there but is it me or do you not think they follow a pattern ? when I say this i have created around 15 of these decks and what i have found is that i will go through a phase of creating 15 cards to end up with 2 or maybe 3 nobles cards after crafting another 15 i would also hit a simlar streak to what was seen in your video.
Were my eyes decieveing me or did i see you buying stacks of 20 addders tongue for like 1 g wow
cool vid though

Darth that is sooo weird, I never read your post but its like we were in the exact same situations, with the excess Snowfall Inks, and I also made 14 Darkmoon Cards! quite the coincidence.

Nice video. I posted a similar article a few days ago with my own observations regarding the Darkmoon Card market. I have yet to sell any cards or decks since the Fair hasn’t come to the Alliance side yet but it looks like there’s major profit to be made.
