Transmutation Alchemy of Living Steel
Living Steel is the new Truegold in Mists of Pandaria. I knew my Alchemist would become a crucial member of my buy gw2 gold making team once MoP went live, if only to transmute Ghost Iron bars (in plentiful supply on the auction house) to Trillium bars and Trillium to Living Steel, albeit with a daily cooldown; however, for those Alchemists that had the spell ‘Riddle of Steel’ it was possible to bypass the daily cooldown, albeit with the additional cost of 3 Spirit of Harmony. My gw2 gold plan was to learn the Riddle of Steel and make a fortune with the transmutation of Living Steel.
But the best laid plans of Mages was soon to be in tatters.
Farming Spirit of Harmony
As I’ve mentioned elsewhere – Surviving Mists of Pandaria – the drops of Mote of Harmony in the new expansion (patch 5.05) is very low, albeit much lower than it was in the beta. Also, Spirit of Harmony is soulbound, which means unless I move my Alchemist out of the Auction House and into Pandaria and spend many hours grinding away for motes, my Riddle of Steel strategy looks like a complete bust for the moment.
Cooking in Mists of Pandaria
I’m so pleased I levelled my Cooking before moving into the new expansion. I knew from the beta that Cooking and all the ingredients needed to level the profession would be a good money spinner. This has proven to be very true and the selling of Meats and Cooking Ingredients has been highly profitable. I have recently updated my Journal Cooking Guide with all the strategies.
