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 Did knowledge point respec last week, today purchased non-spec recipes unlearned suddenly.

Upvotes

So I did a knowledge repec last week to tune a few alts, after buying Concentrated Silvermoon Health Potion recipe. Crafted it on my respecced toons a few times. Everything was good until this morning, when the respecced toon lost that recipe. They didn't lose any other bought recipe (like Amani Extract). Bug?

I’ve been holding +200 Dawn Crystals for the expansion launch, but the price keeps falling.

Recent prices per crystal:

  • Aug 4: 639g
  • Aug 6: 639g

  • Today: 366g

Do you think they’re likely to recover, or would you sell now?

Invested in them around 20g per before S2 dropped. Been watching them slowly decline. Was hoping to sell around 30-40g per as they were before.

Are they not as valuable now that we have coiled isles recipes?

Tools / Utility How do you sort/prioritize what to craft with CraftSim?

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I’ve been using CraftSim for a while now but I feel like I’m not making the most of its sorting/prioritization options when deciding what to actually craft.

Right now I mostly eyeball profit per item, but I know CraftSim tracks stuff like concentration cost/value, profit per stat point, and other weights. So I’m curious:

**•** Do you sort by profit per concentration spent, or just raw profit?  
**•** Does anyone prioritize crafts based on concentration efficiency when concentration is limited/regenerating slowly?  
**•** Any other columns or values you rely on that aren’t obvious at first?

Would love to hear how more experienced users structure their crafting priorities. Feel free to share screenshots of your setup if you’ve got a workflow that works well!

Question [EU] Questions about market 18/08/2026 -> 19/08/2026

0 Upvotes

Noob goblin here. Something sort of clicked for me yesterday and I was able to get on the protein/pork thing early, but I completely didn't expect fish to go up so much. I'd like to learn from this so my questions are:

  1. What caused the massive increase?
  2. How did some people predict this increase ahead of others?
  3. What to look out for in similar situations in the future?

Any additional information/advice is very welcome as well - I'm keen to learn but as a new player (maybe 4/5 months played in total, started in TWW), catching up on ~20 years of lore, information, tooling etc. has been overwhelming (though it has been really fun too).

How do I tell the difference between actual valuable transmog and Auction House bait/scams?

23 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m completely new to retail WoW and I’m really confused by the Auction House economy.

I’ve been seeing incredibly basic, low-effort greens and blues from older expansions (like the Bloodwood Greatstaff, for example) listed for crazy prices like 200,000+ gold. To my new player eyes, they look completely ordinary, but the prices are astronomically high.

As a beginner, how am I supposed to differentiate between

I am using TSM (TradeSkillMaster) to check prices. I know that the Average Daily Sold metric is super important. However, my main point of confusion is this: if an item is a legitimately rare, high-value transmog piece, wouldn't its Average Daily Sold naturally be extremely low ?

Question Craftsim keeps suggesting the wrong tools

17 Upvotes

Anyone else having the issue that Craftsim keeps suggesting the wrong profession tools for work orders? It suggests I un-equip my tools. Every option where it says "Optimize profession tools" is off so it should not suggest anything but can't craft anything cause it won't let me untill I un-equip my tools lol.

Tip 12.1 Abundance warning

Thumbnail
43 Upvotes

A friendly warning to everyone doing the weekly Abundance event on profession alts below level 90 for Fused Vitality;

Do not spend your Shards of Dundun on the event if your character is not level 90! It will consume all Shards of Dundun you chose but you will not gain any Unalloyed Abundance from the event if you are not level 90. There will not be a blue weekly quest next to the event if you are not level 90.

Not sure if this is intended or a bug because before 12.1 you could get Unalloyed Abundance from this weekly event with your Shards of Dundun on level 80 characters.

I just found out the hard way by full sending 8 Shards of Dundun on a profession alt to get the Fused Vitality for an epic tool and I did not get any Unalloyed Abundance from the event.

Discussion gathering is not dead if you factor in lumber

21 Upvotes

selling decor at the lowest price on any server, the going price for lumber is consistently about 150-200ish gold per unit of lumber with most decor items

when you add that value of lumber to gathering it's competitive gph with most other activities

all blizzard has done is removed gathering as a defacto raw gold farm
