I think we all knew that this spot would be nerfed. It wasn't really a question of "if" it would be nerfed but "when".

Redditor beepbeep75 posted the news on /r/WoWGoldMaking. I've since been there myself and can confirm the nerf.

While I am a bit sad to see this spot get nerfed it's not much of a surprise.

Also, as much as I'd like to take credit for publicizing the area (and therefore getting it nerfed) it is much more likely that it was was all the players and bots that likely farmed the spot non-stop that ultimately got Blizzard's attention.

Easy come. Easy go.

I've started to have some success buying and selling what I've dubbed Mists of Pandaria "Uber" blue items. These are items that were introduced in Mists of Pandaria that require level 80-85 and all have item levels over 400.

These are extremely powerful items and can fetch a premium price. I sell most of these items between 2500g to 6000g.

Due to their rarity one of the best ways I've found to find these items for the price I'm willing to pay (under 300g) is to use TradeSkillMaster Dealfinding Lists. Read on past the jump for TSM-importable lists to help you buy these items as soon as they hit the AH.

In this livestream we try for a mount, farm up Essence of Water, check out the updated doppelgangers page, work on getting back into leather transmog and much much more.
