Investment opportunities in classic
🕑 Added 2024-12-04 22:06:06 +0000 UTCToday we will look at some investment opportunities in classic and how you can find them!
The idea
Right now most players are still leveling. This means there’s little demand for end game crafted items, and there’s high supply for a lot of materials that drop on the leveling journey. Classic has some very strong consumables that use mid level materials, so these materials will be relatively cheap right now as they are farmed by people leveling through the zones, but not bought by max level players.
Oily Blackmouth
This post came out of me looking up Oily Blackmouth on the AH. This mid level fish is used in the free action potion, one of the absolute strongest consumables in all of classic. I ended up buying 236 at about 1s per on average. Price on my realm is already up to 1s60c, and it can and will likely go higher.
Swiftthistle
Another item I looked at is swiftthistle. It’s used in Thistle tea and Swiftness potions, both of which are quite good, but used at a lower rate than the free action potions.
Finding other candidates
There are a lot other materials that fit the bill. To find them you should look through classic max level guides, which still exist on wowhead and see what the best consumables are. The list is quite massive in classic and there are a LOT of candidates. Check the prices and see if you can find some good deals!
