Another Day Another Level Sista Progress Report

Another Day Another Level - Sista Progress Report

Sista is now Level 112. She is 34% of the way to level 113. Her gear score is a very nice i232. Her enemies are a lot more cautious now. At least the smart ones are. She finally had some news about her Artifact Power, which is now AP Level 3, 20% toward the next level.

Sista also made progress on her Tailoring. She is now 76/150 and has learned to craft a key item: embroidered deep sea satin, which is used in virtually every pattern. Farming deep sea satin will be a high priority.

Wait, Sista hasn't finished for the day. After further review, here are her new stats.
Sista is now Level 113! 6% of the next level. Gear score is still i232. No change there. But she's made it to AP Level 4 now, 63% toward the next level.

Snow and Ice. Sista is now Level 114! Gear score raised to i237. AP level 5, 41% toward next level.

Back to the Auction Grind - Chaitee is clamoring for more bag production. A small window opened with higher than normal pricing. It won't last long.

Sista is the bag maker, but she has to have the mats to get started. Silkweave bags (24 slots) were first, listed at a rare selling price of 299 gold each. She only had a limited number and hoped to get them sold quickly. Java can farm the silkweave but it's boringly slow work and she hates it. She refused to go, knowing that Tiphaine was off somewhere else.

Frostweave mats and bags (20 slot) are at the other end of the scale. The cloth is cheap, as low as 1g per piece, and can be easily farmed in the Naxxramas raid. Being cheap, Chaitee even bought a few hundred frostweave cloth, expecting to still earn a profit. Wildshard even took a turn farming the place. There's a story behind that somewhere.

Wild's "abode" is a disaster. It's even worse since he is still without a guild and therefore has no access to storage that a guild would have provided.

That didn't stop Wild, though. He even volunteered to make a Twilight Highlands run as well as spend a long hour farming the endless hordes flowing out of the Maw to get embersilk cloth.

Even Atkar finally got into the process. The mats Java gathered (cinderbloom, from Deepholm, which is a lot easier to farm than silkweave) went to make potions that increase the loot from the hordes coming out of the Maw.

Most of the above materials is "old tech," despite that they're still worth farming and making. However, the Battle of Azeroth compression by the "dumbing down" of almost everything is getting felt across the gathering and bag production business. A prime example is that while this report was being written, the 299 gold price of Silkweave Bags dropped to 200 gold. Just like that. Suddenly, the market for bags, whether silkweave, embersilk, or frostweave, became useless. At least until the next belch from some farmer dumping goods on the market.
