WoW Confidential

In the video above I show my daily routine with enchanting and how I use my gold making addons to make a hefty profit from scrolls.

I recently posted a video on how I leveled enchanting from 1-450 for the most profit. Now it’s time to start making gold with enchanting in 3.3.3 and incorporating it into my mix of other professions (read how I make my gold to see all my gold making strategies).

There are so many enchants and getting started can seem daunting so here’s how I went about it.

Get Enchant Formulas

Step one is to visit Vanessa Sellers in Dalaran and buy up pretty much all the formulas she sells. All of these are great sellers except for the following:

Enchant Cloak – Mighty Armor
Enchant Weapon – Icebreaker
Enchant Weapon – Giant Slayer
Enchant Weapon – Scourgebane

There are some other enchanting recipes that are good sellers and not included in this list, such as Mongoose, I will write up how to source those formulas in an upcoming article.

Use LSWS To Find Most Profitable Enchants

With a list of popular enchants you can now do a full scan of the auction house (do /auc getall). This will refresh the values in Lil’Sparkys Workshop and show you the lowest priced scroll currently on the auction house on the left column, and the cost to craft the scroll in the right column using your servers market prices.

With this data, you can sort the list by highest profit. Start to craft one of each of these scrolls from top to bottom until you reach less profitable scrolls or you can’t afford to invest more.

Review Sales With Beancounter

After crafting and posting these items (you can start off posting with just appraiser in auctioneer) you should be getting some sales coming back. Open up beancounter, make sure only “Auctions” is checked and search for “Scroll of”, this will provide you with a list of all your enchants that are selling for a profit.

From the scrolls you see selling you can now add these to your KTQ macro so it will always add these to your skillet queue if you run out of supply.

I use the item number instead of item name as it really saves on character space in the macros. Go to wowhead.com and search for whatever scroll you are looking for, at the top URL you will see the item=#, type in that # into the KTQ macro as follows:

/ktq queue 2 38979    < — example of Scroll of Enchant Gloves – Exceptional Spellpower

Here’s my KTQ macro I currently use for all my best selling enchants:

/ktq queue 2 38912
/ktq queue 2 38914
/ktq queue 2 38937
/ktq queue 2 38951
/ktq queue 2 38963
/ktq queue 2 38964
/ktq queue 2 38973
/ktq queue 2 38978
/ktq queue 2 38979
/ktq queue 2 38989
/ktq queue 2 38991
/ktq queue 2 38995
/ktq queue 2 38997
/ktq queue 2 38999
/ktq queue 2 39005
/ktq queue 2 39006
/ktq queue 2 44453
/ktq queue 2 44455
/ktq queue 2 44456
/ktq queue 2 44457
/ktq queue 2 44463
/ktq queue 2 44466
/ktq queue 2 44467
/ktq queue 2 45060

I advise you to make your own list that pertains to your servers economy, or only make 1 of each scroll first to make sure they’re selling on your server.

Create QA3 Groups For Posting

Once you are crafting 25 different enchanting scrolls a day using appraiser to post scrolls can be so much work since you are analyzing each scrolls price to see if it is within your profit range. You should instead set up QA3 groups for each scroll so that all you need to do is do your KTQ macro, craft whatever is in skillet, then press Post on QA3 and it’ll post whatever is profitable and leave in your inventory the scrolls that are too low priced.

Enchanting is my 2nd best gold making profession that I highlighted in my highest gold making professions per effort post the other day. I second it only to Jewelcrafting and once I pick up the other enchants that are harder to get (so should be less competition) it might very well take over Jewelcrafting as my best gold making profession.
