Librams in Cataclysm

Posted by Markco at 8:00 AM

EDIT: Sigh I'm an old timer when it comes to Wow and sometimes I miss changes to the old content, such as librams in this case. Please read the entire article and the warning at the end as I probably screwed up royally with this tip. I am inches away from just deleting this post and putting something else in its place. Hopefully this will at least have some value in getting you thinking about how the game will change with regards to librams, helm enchanting and the insane title. I've published another post today in order to compensate for this blunder of epic proportions.

Reader emails are perhaps the best part about running this blog. Especially when I receive pro tips from players who are thinking outside the box like Dave here. He took a look at BOA helms and cloaks which are coming out in cataclysm and asked himself: "What would twinks and levelers use to enchant these new items?"

Here is Dave's email along with a link for where you can learn more:

"I didn't see this covered anywhere but the only way I can think of to enchant a BoA helm like the ones being introduced in cataclysm is with librams. Might be smart to pick a few handfuls of rapidity and focus. I could see the others jumping in prices as well but I don't think they'd be worth the bank space. Thanks for writing a terrific blog!

Dave"

I think that this tip is so good that it should probably be added to my top ten items to stockpile for cataclysm. Good job Dave! You've paid the community back in spades with this tip and I encourage you all to keep sending me all your great tips as well as including them in the forums here. I try my best to include them in the blog but also including them in the forum to ensure that everyone will get to read them right away is something I recommend to all the people who send me tips.

Warning: The libram quests have changed recently (past 6 months) to require level 49 and you must do it on the toon you are going to enchant (the enchants are not tradeable and are soulbound). Therefore this probably won't sell well during cataclysm to levelers and it is entirely possible that the quest chains will not exist. If blizzard does this it would be a big pain to anyone completing the insane title since librams are the only way to get some of the faction rep required. Just be careful and don't invest too much into this. It's a high risk, high reward market. If you do this and libram quests are included in cataclysm or still around for the insane title it could pay off big but I don't want a bunch of you buying thousands of gold's worth of these on what you think is a sure thing.
