Preparing for Mythic+ Stock Up on Consumables!

As the excitement builds for the opening of Mythic Nerub-ar Palace and the onset of the Mythic+ season, many players are eager to gather essential food, consumables, and enchantments. If you're looking to conserve some gold, consider opting for the Dragonflight versions of Drums and Invisibility Potions, which remain effective in The War Within content at the time of this writing.

Both the Feral Hide Drums and Potion of the Hushed Zephyr work similarly to their counterparts in The War Within but come at a fraction of the cost. Currently, Feral Hide Drums can be found for around 4 compared to the staggering 1,500 for Thunderous Drums. Invisibility Potions range from approximately 10 for the Potion of the Hushed Zephyr to 295 for the Draught of Silent Footfalls (both rank 3).

However, proceed with caution—there's a chance this pricing disparity is an oversight by Blizzard. Typically, consumables from previous expansions are adjusted at launch to only be effective for players below a certain level. It’s likely that both the Feral Hide Drums and Potion of the Hushed Zephyr may face similar adjustments. Stock up wisely!
