wow Gold-Making Opportunities Tied to Legendary Weapons in Visions of N'Zoth

[Stan 5,240]

Join us as we explore some of the gold-making opportunities that emerge from transmogrifying legendary weapons in Visions in Visions of N'Zoth.

As you probably know, you can transmogrify legendary weapons in Visions of N'Zoth and in this post, we are looking at the gold-making opportunities that come from it.

Some legendary items require players to farm certain materials in the open world, meaning you can use this to your advantage and either farm them yourself or flip them on the Auction House when Patch 8.3 goes live because there will be an influx of players who will want to get their hands on those legendary items.

Shadowmourne

15 Primordial Saronite are required to craft Shadowmourne. You can buy them on the Auction House cheaper and flip them on patch day. Alternatively, they are purchasable from Legacy Justice Quartermasters in Dalaran or Icecrown Citadel for 150 Gold each which means you won't be able to sell them higher than that unless people on your realm are super lazy.

Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros

The following items are needed to craft Sulfuron Hammer for Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros:

• 8 Sulfuron Ingots that drop from Golemagg the Incinerator in Molten Core
• 20 Dark Iron Bars smelted by Miners
• 50 Arcanite Bars transmuted by Alchemists (Thorium Bar + Arcane Crystal are required to create one bar)
• 25 Essences of Fire dropped from Molten Core trash mobs nad bosses
• 10 Blood of the Mountain obtained from Mining Dark Iron and killing Molten Destroyers in Molten Core
• 10 Lava Core dropped from Molten Core trash mobs and bosses
• 10 Fiery Core dropped from Molten Core trash mobs and bosses

The amount of Gold you can get from this may be limited by the fact that there is a better-looking version of the legendary weapon currently in the game (Sulfuras, the Extinguished Hand) which drops from Ragnaros in Firelands, so the effort of getting the Molten Core version may not be worth it for some.

Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker

For the Thunderaan the Windseeker quest, you must obtain 10 Enchanted Elementium Bar.

You can learn how to smelt it by killing Master Elemental Shaper Krixix in Blackwing Lair who drops  Goblin's Guide to Elementium.

In order to Smelt 1 Enchanted Elementium bar, you will need:

• 1 Elementium Ingot from Blackwing Technicians and Master Elemental Shaper Krixix in Blackwing Lair.
• 10 Arcanite Bars transmuted by Alchemists (Thorium Bar + Arcane Crystal are required to create one bar)
  • Thorium farming will be profitable for Miners
• 3 Fiery Cores from Molten Core trash mobs and Baron Geddon
• 3 Elemental Flux purchasable from Blacksmithing Suppliers

To sum up, you must be a Miner, visit Blackwing Lair, kill the first four bosses and make your way to Master Elemental Shaper Krixix who must drop Goblin's Guide to Elementium. You also need Elementium Ingots from Blackwing Lair, Fiery Cores from Molten Core, and a bunch of Thorium Bar + Arcane Crystal to create a single Enchanted Elementium Bar. That's a lot of Gold for a lot of effort! Enchanted Elementium Bars are BoE and can be sold on the Auction House.

If you don't have time for everything, try sticking to regular Blackwing Lair/Molten Core clears and pay Un'Goro Crater and Silithus a visit from time to time to farm Thorium if you are a Miner!

When I was making Enchanted Elementium Bars for my Thunderfury I think the farming part of it took me the better part of 5 hours to get the amount of arcane crystals.  Oh and that was with speed boosted DK flying.

I completely forget the drop rates of Fiery Cores but I seemingly didn’t have any trouble with them (I hoarded stuff like that on a bank alt.) so don’t know what they’d be worth.

 This would be so incredibly rare in vanilla since Arcanite Bars had a 24 hour CD (I may be mistaken.) and that’s 100 transmutes.   If my memory is right that alone was about 1,500-2,000G back then.

Needless to say, the Thunderfury quest line is long, expensive and time consuming.  However my warlock looked really great in it and has for 5+ years.

Arcanite Bars are 56g on Gehennas-EU right now.

So make that 5600g ?

Good luck seeing a Thunderfury for a while ?
