The new Level 100 build of the Warlords of Draenor Beta is all about Garrisons with Blizzard giving you all sorts of tricks and shortcuts that allow beta testers to build all sorts of Garrison goodness.

I was very interested in all the different Garrison buildings along with all the different levels of those buildings and what benefits they offer. Read on past the jump for details on all twenty building you can build in the current beta.

So it's been 11 days since I started my One Month, One Toon Challenge and it's time to report back on how it's going, what I'm learning and what I'm missing. (If you're confused by my Nelf'ish figure above, it was a teleporter malfunction. A horrible, disfiguring malfunction!) Read on past the jump for my experiences so far.

I'm what you might call an "alt-aholic". I love toons. Toons, toons and more toons. I have ten level 85 characters on my main server. I have far more than ten alts of various levels scattered over various servers. IN gold-making it is often very advantageous to have such a set up. Having multiple toons with multiple professions is a very solid strategy.

There is something, however, that I think I may have lost in my race to "have all the toons" and that is focus. Perhaps it is all the time I've been spending in Outlands reminiscing about "the good old days". Perhaps it is seeing people struggle to make gold with just one or two characters.

Mainly I just want to feel the way I did about a singular character the way I did in The Burning Crusade. Whatever the reason, I've decided to create what I am calling the "One Month, One Toon" Challenge. Read on past the jump to see how I'll be spending my next 30 days in World of Warcraft.

Vicious Amberjewel Bands. Mat prices to craft this PVP ring are coming in line with (and often even dropping below) the value of Heavenly Shards. Also disenchanting them with the Bountiful Bags guild perk will sometimes procs extra Heavenly Shards. Read more past the jump.

In this video I answer a reader question about why we call it the "Obsidium Shuffle".

In the wake of Patch 4.1: "Rise of the Zandalari" there have been some major shake-ups in the World of Warcraft economy.

Some were predicted and some have been unexpected. Today we are going to be discussing the absolute free-fall that has happened to the prices of Maelstrom Crystals and how we may be able to take advantage of it as gold-makers.

(Farming, mining or checking the AH? We all love to multi-task. Listen to the spoken-word version of this post while you play via the embedded player below or download/play either the Normal Speed MP3 or the "Time is Money" 2x Speed MP3.)

Normal Speed	"Time is Money" 2x Speed

With patch 4.1 drawing closer and bringing with is the inevitable lowering of Maelstrom Crystal prices many of us are working to liquidate any Maelstrom Crystals we have.

Today I'm going to share a spreadsheet I utilize along with a Auctionator shopping list to quickly analyze the profitability of producing a Maelstrom Crystal via crafting and disenchanting a pair or epic engineering goggles.

Today's guest post was written by Jokine who is our co-host for The Power Word: Gold Podcast . For the latest information from Jokine follow them on twitter at @Jokinee. 

We don't want to look opportunities behind us but rather look for new experiences. This is a very important thing and you want to take a look at your own gold making methods.

We're proud to bring you The Power Word Gold Podcast - Episode 004. Your hosts flux and Jokine bring you the latest World of Warcraft gold-making news, tips and strategies from this last week.

We go over what we have been doing in gold-making this week, how to make gold with limited time and much more. And now, on with the show!

"Maelstrom Crystals are now available for purchase with Honor or Justice Points from the associated commodities vendors." (Wowhead Blog - "PTR Patch 4.1 Notes Updated (3/22)")

Rather then writing a full post about the possible crash of the Maelstrom Crystal market I'm going to do a "Link Roundup".

Here are some relevant links and snippets of what the gold making community is saying about the news. As more discussion happens I'll update this post.

Formula: Runed Arcanite Rod

"Gold-Making Classics" is a column dedicated to celebrating methods that have been making auctioneers gold for years. These are tried and true tips and tricks that work time after time.

There once was a Death Knight who wanted to get the most our of her professions. She had leveled so fast she hadn't taken the time to level professions. Now she had time and was going to correct that.

When the day came to finally choose her professions. A skinner was something she was born to do so that was her first choice. As for her second she read all the best theorycrafting and decided that the best DPS increase possible was Leatherworking. Wait. Leatherworking?

This didn't make logical sense. She wore plate. She smashed things with big swords and hammers. Why in the world would she choose Leatherworking?

The answer might surprise you. What might surprise you even more is the series of events that would lead to me losing 18,000 gold because of Leatherworking.

This last week was a good solid week for me gold-wise. Even with a slight detour to put some time into Rift I was still able to make some good gold in WoW.

As a little atta-boy for myself I reached over 60k this week. This is the most gold I've ever had at one time and it feels good.

In this weeks recap I'm going to be talking about what worked, what didn't, what was new and what to look forward to.
