The New Face of Opportunity

Mommar here.

Patch 5.3 is just a few weeks old and patch 5.4 information has already been leaked out.

One of the exciting additions will be the idea of Virtual Realms.  

• Virtual Realms are sets of realms that are fused together, and will behave exactly as if they were one cohesive realm. Players on the same Virtual Realm will be able to join guilds, access a single Auction House, join arena teams and raids, as well run dungeons or group up to complete quests.

This will open up a floodgate of cross realm sales.   Combining weak economies and material heavy servers to compete with high inflation servers.   Think the auction house in Tanaris on steroids.   There isn't a ton of information on how the combinations will be rolled out,  but planning ahead now can add a lot to the plate once more specifics are provided.

One of the benefits of reading patch notes and even datamined items is that you pick up on major changes like this quicker than others.   And knowledge is power in the gold goblin field.   This gives players 2-4 months to start looking at their strategy on how to take advantage of this change.   This is assuming that this new idea doesn't go the way of the dance studio (I so wanted to watch my Tauren rock it out like an undead).

The other thing to keep in mind with this change is that the playing field will be leveled when it comes to making gold even more.  Many players gripe because opportunities don't smack them in the head saying here I am.   They will meander around not expanding their horizons on how making gold.  A gold goblin lives on the ragged edge of disaster with taking chances on what they craft and sell.  Through my 'career' of making gold I have won and lost when it comes to make a fortune.   Some of my major buys have ended up being duds in sales.  Other times they excelled farther than I expected.   The key to the success is the plan and to be ready to take chances.  You can grind out a fortune from playing it safe.  But you can play the game,  take chances and have multiple fortunes at your fingertips.

As this new technology unfolds your strategy can come to life and be prepared for the next round of the gold goblin gold Olympics.  Where every medal should be gold.

Good Luck and Good Hunting
