In The War Within, one of the most efficient ways to generate gold with minimal time investment is through maximizing the use of the new concentration stat. This guide will walk you through how to leverage this mechanic to earn substantial profits, whether you’re a newcomer or a seasoned player.
Understanding Concentration
Concentration is a new stat introduced in The War Within, replacing the inspiration stat from Dragonflight. It functions as a finite resource that regenerates slowly over time—approximately 10 points per hour. This resource is crucial for enhancing the quality of crafted items, allowing players to reach higher quality levels without maxing out their profession skills or using costly materials.
How Concentration Works
Concentration allows you to improve the quality of your crafts. For instance, if you're crafting an enchant and can't reach quality 3 due to skill limitations, you can use concentration to bridge the gap. This technique helps you achieve high-quality outputs, which are more profitable in the market.
Step-by-Step Guide to Profiting with Concentration
-
Maximize Your Skill: The higher your skill level, the less concentration you’ll need. Aim to level up your profession as much as your budget allows.
-
Invest in Specializations: Specializations can significantly enhance your crafting efficiency. Gather knowledge points from various activities, such as completing weekly tasks and disenchanting, to invest in your specializations.
-
Acquire the Right Tools: Use profession tools to boost your stats further. On the Auction House, look for the highest item level gear available for your profession to enhance your crafting capabilities.
-
Select Profitable Crafts: Choose items with high demand and profitability. For enchanting, radiant rings and high-end weapon enchants are lucrative options. For tailoring and other professions, focus on items with consistent market demand.
-
Use CraftSim for Optimization: Utilize tools like CraftSim to simulate different crafting scenarios. This will help you identify the most profitable items and the concentration costs associated with them.
Tips for Maximizing Returns
-
Alt Armies: By spreading concentration usage across multiple characters, you can multiply your crafting output and profits. This method is ideal for those with several alts.
-
Consistent Crafting: Regularly use your concentration to ensure it’s always regenerating. Even crafting lower-tier items can yield profits and keep your concentration pool from maxing out.
-
Market Awareness: Keep an eye on the Auction House to understand the supply and demand dynamics. Adjust your crafting focus based on what’s selling well.
