Reference Data - Scribes knowing their herbs

for other ideas on the glyph market and other general tips see the free Croda's Inscription Gold Guide

How many cataclysm herbs does it take to make a glyph?  How does this vary by cataclysm herb?  What herbs do you need for what Ink?

All key reference points of data the scribe should have their finger tips to minimise costs and determine acceptable sales prices to generate their acceptable levels of profits.

To that end I have a page on this blog that will show these handy bits of data: reference data.

See the page for the answer to the above questions!

Herbs to Glyph Converions - Cataclysm Herbs

(using 2 ashen pigment per Blackfallow ink and 3 Blackfallow ink per glyph, to 1 decimal place)

1 Cinderbloom creates 0.4 Ashen Pigments therefore it takes 15.0 Cinderbloom per glyph

1 Stormvine creates 0.4 Ashen Pigments therefore it takes 15.0 Stormvine per glyph

Friday Shout Out – Hunter Mastery

for other ideas on the glyph market and other general tips see the free Croda's Inscription Gold Guide

Hunter Mastery: admitedly this is not the catchiest title for a blog that deals in gold making – but it does, and rather well.  Also covers matters pertaining to being a good hunter, hence the name.

As well as the many posts to date it has a couple of podcasts up already – split into two parts – Hunters and Gold Making.  And focushot has featured Jim Younkin's Livestreams recently and his own youtube channel



A Review of Croda's Inscription Gold Guide

In a recent post the author of Hunter Mastery, Focushot, has written a review on my gold guide (the paid version costing a mere $5).

A fair review i think, covers the ground well and comes up with his opinion on the guide.  Well worth a read for yourself for a honest third party view.

For any other established gold bloggers out there who would like to give a “warts and all” review of my Inscription Gold Guide please contact me and i will send you your free copy for such a purpose.
