The Golden Muse Returns…

The Golden Muse has returned and up for new Gold Making Challenges.
Over a year ago I stopped playing World Of Warcraft and focused on work and home life. After a few months I thought about going back but was frustrated because my top geared mage was no longer top geared and I decided to try out some other things.  I played around with Star Wars, Tried my hand a Diablo and eventually decided to come back to wow.
Today is my 3rd day back and there have been lots of changes in the last year. I left when Cata was still kinda new and shiny – now it’s a little crisp around the edges due to the Fire Lands.  Not only do I have to learn new areas, new dungeons, new raids and new gems – but I decided to server transfer to a different server and different faction!  I had played alliance for my entire career of wow, but some real life friends of mine are Horde on another server  and my new causal lifestyle fit more with them then my hard-core raiding guild (whose leadership and membership based majorly changed during my year + long absence).  I now have to re-learn all the capital cities and stop myself from going on auto-pilot into an Alliance city (I have killed myself twice so far doing that).
But the Auction House remains the same.  While the markets are a little different on this server and there doesn’t seem to be as a competitive market as my last server, my first 2 days have netted me about 8k with just doing some light auction-housing. I am spending my time reviewing how the market on this server works and who my competition is on this server before I jump in feet first.

Stay Tuned :)
