New source for Mark of Potency

edited March 2015 in General Discussion (PC)
Is there a new source where you can get Marks of Potency ? I've noticed that Ah has been flooded with MoP (for the past few days) and their price dropped below 12k. People buy them from Ah yet the same players keep flooding AH with MoP (from strange accounts like @sfhsfdgdd, @bnhgkhgg) and not just one or ten marks but whole stacks. Where are the MoP coming from ?

    It seems the market for upgrading Rank 5 and Rank 6 Enchantments currently is dead...

    ...which I consider only logical. Everybody is hoarding all kind of RP until the post-launch week - or the 2x RP weekend soon after, which everybody yearns for.

    ...also probably people flushing their stores, as soon R5s will drop...

    Arcane Reservoir. Bots. TRs just stealth past the first few encounters, grab the profession nodes, exit the instance, sell trash to vendors and repeat. That's where the MoPs and all other reagents are coming from.

    Hahaha do you know how long it takes to get a stack of 99 this way?


    By my estimates I'd say about 18-24 hours of play time depending on your luck.

    I figured the arcane reservoir bots must be onto something so I tried to emulate them as a non-bot (aka "normal player"....) After about 30 runs I had precisely zero blue marks, and very little else of value either. I concluded that I was either misunderstanding their run or was overestimating their "rate of pay". Either way, I can earn AD and buy blue marks much more quickly elsewhere.

    If those marks are botted, and I don't think they are, then they are coming from somewhere else.

    Cask of wonders does the job, quite well. However, the arcane reservoir thing is still present, bots don't care how long it takes to get a full stack. The amount of bots has decreased, but they are still farming it. Just go to sharandar and see for yourself.
    Cask of wonders? In such quantities? Impossible unless there's a way to copy it. You say amount of bots has decreased yet there has never been so many MoP in AH, with lowest price in history.

    Cask of wonders, arcane reservoir ... I'm just laughing at you! I've done this dungeons billion times with several toons. In about 1 year, again: 1year I got probably 2-3 MoP or other blue marks... those droprates are incredibly low!

    Well believe what ya want... I do know where they come from.

    So how about you share this knowledge?

    Even more people would flood the AH and prices would drop again. furthermore next 2xRP event will come and no need that everyone already have enough MoPs, if ya know what I mean.

    Playing the Auction House only for some personal reasons... so again: naah thanks!

    i got some out of boxes to buy in the ah, but they cost about 45k AD and the cost/benefit ratio is not very good imo
    droprate for blue marks or purple is very bad imo
    cask of wonder, hm drop rate very bad imo, got 2 in the hole time by going DR
    what about the "profession Hour" , drops are better and more often?

    First of all "bud" it's not allowed by the forum rules to spread out exploits!
    So you just admitted there is an exploit which allows ppl to get insane amounts of Marks of Potency and you use it to sell MoP in AH.

    Cool.

    I wonder how many months will take the devs to trace it. Half a year?

    Ok all,here is what happens.If you had played on preview you'd know that Marks of Potency drop from elemental caskets you get from quests.That means that after mod 6 the market will flood with Marks of potency,which will be as common as rank 5 enchants(well not so much,but you get the picture).The ones who know that sell, their stacks,before they are worthless.Now if only that was the case with Greater Marks as well hmmmmm.............
    It's BUGS bunny i tell you.

    The new source is in mod 6. It will be a lot cheaper then.

    The OP asked a valid question, however, the thread has now devolved into discussion of exploits and therefore must be closed. Please read the Rules of Conduct and refrain from discussing how to exploit game mechanics.
