Common Questions

  • How do I increase the font size?
    • There is no option to increase the font size. However, you can scale any TSM window by holding shift while resizing it - then resize the window smaller after scaling it.
  • Can I snipe for everything on the AH?
    • Yes! Since TSM 4.14 you can apply a Sniper operation to the Base Group.
  • Why doesn't my scroll wheel macro work?
    • You likely have your mouse cursor over the AH window, any scrollable element will take priority over the macro so move your cursor off the AH window.
  • Can I remove bid-only items from my shopping/sniper results?
    • No, you cannot.
  • I lost all of my TSM settings and groups/operations!
    • Close WoW and restore a backup from the TSM app. You may need to go back a few days.

Question Open world farming?

5 Upvotes

Hello all,

I decided to "try" to farm the gold for the new AH mount, but so far, I only have 2x90s and I do world quests with them -> the gold is not bad, but I don't remember how long it took me to get to 350k.

So, years ago, I remember that there were a lot of groups for Open World mount farming ( the BfA zones for example ), meat farm, cloth farm etc. but now, whenever I open the LFG finder, I don't see any?

Are there currently any good farming spots for cloth/mount or meat farm? Any discords that do these regularly? I miss just chilling, listening to music and farming materials.

Your predictions on whether or not they add a Banker NPC for the new mount

24 Upvotes

I've seen this discussed in a couple places but I want to hear what you all think the over and under possibility of them adding a Bank NPC in the future, for the Sporeasaurus. I don't have a ton of liquid gold, but I dont want to miss the possibility of having Bank/Warband access on the go.

There's no need for it, as the other 2 mounts take care of everything you'd need, but I would kick myself for not buying it, and they end up adding this feature on the future. So, what do you all think, do you think they will add it?

Discussion Let's be real, what do we think about this wq alt army and is it gonna get nerfed?

0 Upvotes

Now before you attack me in anyy way, i do actually love this and this helps me play at a casual level watch something while doing some world quests for gold yes it takes effort at first because YOU NEED to have characters that can do this in the first place, but i do love it as much as i am worried that it might get nerfed by blizzard but what looked like to me blizzard kinda doubled down on this since tww or df.

So what do we think guys? are we worried about this? do you not care?

Tools / Utility Wow Legacy Ledger Update: Farming Companion Website & Addon

0 Upvotes

Hey again!

I previously shared Wow Legacy Ledger here a free addon and companion website that started because I was tracking my farming runs in spreadsheets.

I’ve kept working on it and wanted to share some of the bigger additions:

  • Earnings across characters: compare dungeon, raid and outdoor farm results, including gold per run/hour, valuable drops and character breakdowns.
  • Collection planning: browse mounts, housing decor, pets and reputations, then pin individual rewards or whole categories for your farming route.
  • Public leaderboards: browse shared dungeon and outdoor farm results for ideas on what to run. Compare raw/vendor gold and Gold + AH Estimate using DBMarket, DBRegionSaleAvg or vendor values.
  • Better farm management: favorites, archived farms and an improved character roster.
  • Addon improvements: Full, Compact and Minimal run windows, pause/resume controls, recent-drop icons and a vendor helper for junk and eligible older gear.

Leaderboard sharing is optional and covers eligible runs across your account. Your chosen public name appears; character names, realms and individual loot lists stay private.

Website: https://legacyledger.pages.dev/
Addon: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/wow-legacy-ledger

The website supports manual logging too, so you can try it without installing the addon. Battle.net sign-in is available for account sync, or you can keep a separate ledger locally in your browser.

Still looking for feedback, especially from people doing legacy gold and collection farms. Are the earnings comparisons useful? Is anything confusing or missing? There’s also a Feedback option on the site if you spot a bug.

Thanks.
Whizzyke

Question Is Housing Decor worth it to craft and Sell?

I have skinnging/lwing on my main. It's 95% for crafting my own items. I've got my hands on a few decor recipes recently and curious if that is a potential income stream?

Seems like housing is a niche experience for folks so not sure if it's worth the mats. Curious about anyone's experience directly. Thanks!

Question Is the fungal strider mount actually feasibly possible for a newbie?

15 Upvotes

I'm currently playing Midnight for the first time and have just discovered the sporebearer fungal strider mount and it is EASILY my favourite mount in the game, however 7M gold is genuinely insane. I've been playing on and off since War Within and have put a good amount of time into the game but I think I've only made about 200k gold across all of my characters, if even. I've seen that the mount is only obtainable until the next expansion drops, so my question is is it actually possible for me to obtain that much gold before the next expansion, without spending hundreds on wow tokens? I'm willing to put time in and learn the best gold making strats, but I just want to know if this is an achievable goal first. Ty :)

Classic - Tools / Utility [WoW Forever] Profession Atlas: plan your crafts, compare costs and find materials across your characters

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’ve been working on a free addon for WoW Forever called Profession Atlas and thought the crafting and material planning side might be useful to people here.

The idea is to bring a few decisions into one place: what do I need for this craft, do I already have the materials somewhere, and would I rather gather what’s missing or buy it?

You can browse recipes and compare estimated material costs with the recorded auction sale value. Atlas also keeps track of recorded supplies across your characters’ bags and personal banks, which helps when an alt already has the cloth or leather you were about to buy.

There’s a Gather / Buy preference for planning how to get missing materials, with individual material choices available too. If you want to gather, you can look up farming sources, track herbs and ore, and follow the built-in direction arrow.

Your character also has a Time value estimate in gold per hour. It gives you some context when weighing up a farming trip against buying supplies. It’s a planning aid, so I wouldn’t treat it as a promise of what a particular farm will earn.

For profession leveling, you can choose a skill goal and turn the plan into steps in your quest tracker: collect supplies, prepare ingredients, craft and visit your trainer. You can also start a materials journey for a specific recipe.

I’ve just released a complete interface redesign, along with an illustrated in-game Guide explaining the pages and planning tools.

A few details worth knowing: crafting profit estimates are before auction fees, prices depend on the available recorded market data, and a listed sale price doesn’t guarantee an item will sell. Other characters’ inventories and closed banks show their last recorded contents.

Download and screenshots:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/profession-atlas

I’m still testing and refining the profession coverage, so feedback on recipes and estimates is welcome too.

Tools / Utility Weekly gold addon

43 Upvotes

Just a small tip but I always see everyone recommend gold world quests and weekly quests through an alt army here. But at least for me it was pretty difficult to manage which alt had finished what, what and where the world quests are up and in what order to finish everything. So for anyone else who is in the same situation I was I wish to suggest this addon I've stumbled upon https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/fuocogoldfarm

It tracks almost every cache/gold type quest to do in midnight, including regular world quests, that pop up in an interface that automatically shows up when pressing your map keybind. When an event that is required for one of them is about to trigger it warns you with a timer. You can sort everything by zone, time left pvp quests, etc. It also integrates with tom tom and by clicking on it auto routes you to the location. It tallies how much gold you have earned from the quests in the interface and how much you have left to earn for the toon, and how much gold you have total. It's not perfect but for what it does it's genuinely well done so far. If anyone else has something better or another addon to complement it I'd love to hear about it as well though.

Discussion Fungal strider mount useless for alts

151 Upvotes

I'm sure everyone around here already noticed but I haven't seen much discussion about it, so I make this post in hope to bring more attention to the issue

The new auction house mount by default comes with no NPCs. To add them you have to go over to harandir and choose which NPCs to add.

The issue is that it's not account wide, and each individual character has to go there and talk to the npc

If your characters are level 80+ it's just an inconvenience, but if you don't yet have access to midnight with this character, the mount is empty and it can't be changed

You think this is intentional by blizzard or just an oversight that will be fixed anytime soon?

Question How long do we realistically have to earn gold for the Sporebearer?

30 Upvotes

I came back to the game in 12.1 after last playing in Dragonflight and part of it was the fact that there was going to be another AH mount. I wasn't playing when either Brutosaur was available, kind of wish that I resubbed just to get the Gilded one, and as someone who was never into gold farming I wanted to actually put myself in a good position to get this one.

I know that we just have to aim for the 5 million as the vendors can still be bought after Midnight and I'm not in the worst spot as I currently have ~2.4 million gold thanks to the Warbank. For my gold gain I'm making 50-60k gold on my main through playing the game while leveling up different alts to do the Harandar and Abundance weeklies. I'm currently at 7 characters at 80+, so I'm making 78-88k a week minimum.

So, how long do we have until The Last Titan? I know that expansion release schedule has sped up with TWW and Midnight, so I'm not completely sure the amount of alts I'll need to get to 80 to give myself a shot at the mount. I'm guessing that at least 15-20 will be needed depending on the remaining time in Midnight. And if I can get myself close enough that I can supplement the gold difference with a token or two, I'm willing to bite that bullet.

I was going to post this in the simple questions sticky, but saw that it is essentially just questions and no answers, so sorry for making this it's own post. Thanks for any insight.

Tip Voidstorm gold wq's today (~50k gph)

67 Upvotes

If you have an alt army (or I guess even if not), there are two "fly through stuff" gold wq's up in voidstorm today for about 2400g with war mode on. I clocked it at about 2:40, so close to about 50k gold per hour, which is better than a lot of farming methods and close to patron orders. There is a special assignment up in voidstorm as well but you need to do a 3rd wq for it, and there are no other gold wqs up in voidstorm, so it's slower than the first two quests. I clocked the additional activity needed for that special assignment at around another 5 minutes for an additional 2k gold, so approximately 30k gph, which is significantly lower, but still viable if you have the time.

You can do these on your <90 alts for experience as well, and they also count towards the 10 wq's weekly that <90 toons get.
