Gadgetzan auction house

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.warcraft (More info?)

is dead on my server (Hellscream) absolutely nothing up for auction, no one
was there whilst I was there either. I'm assuming on the older servers
there are some auctions there?
I went there in search of an artisan cooking teacher, my cooking is over 200
now, and I could remember a cook told me to goto Gadgetzan, I couldn't
remember the name of the person I had to see.

Anyway I went all around it and couldn't find anyone, later I learned that
it was Dirge Quickcleave I had to see, but I'm sure I saw him and he was
just selling meat, I think he was just called a butcher. He was selling one
reciepe for level 225 cook, which I'm not quite yet, but it wasn't a
cookbook or anything. Anyone have anymore insight?

Also maybe another stupid question, how do you get to Aerie Peak in the
Hinterlands from Southshore?
I've approached it from two directions (from the west and south I think) but
theres just inpassable mountains in the way. Stupid Artisan leatherworker
in Darnassus can't teach me anything more!

It's the innkeeper, whetever his name is. You must have 225 cooking
or he won't offer the quest. There might be a level requirement too.

There's a pass between the mountains northeast of Durnholde Keep.

Hmm, I think it is Dirge after all, not the innkeeper. It's one of the
goblin NPCs in the inn, anyway.

Aye, level requirement of 40, else I would be doing this myself by now. I
have 225 in cooking, can't advance until I do this quest, but I'm only level
34.

To me the Gadgetzan AH is a failed concept, it seems that Blizz may need to
do something to push players in Horde/Alliance trading.

I've heard it said, perhaps here, that the interfaction auction house
ought to be in Booty Bay, not Gadgetzan. I've yet to visit the
latter, while the former has been my primary questing ground for the
past ten levels and counting.

You assume wrong.

It's a miracle to find more than 20 items listed in the Uldum Gadgetzan AH,
and that server has been up since 5 days after launch.

sed to be some at somepiont... Thinking that Booty Bay would be a good place
for the Goblin's to relocate their Auction House...

Follow the river, basically, iirc.

That's what I did, the first time I tried to get to Aerie Peak...Took me to
Eastern Plaguelands Correct path is, as another poster stated, just
north/northeast of Durnholde Keep.

Yep, you will find the path behind Durnholde Keep- when you spot two
griffons flapping together in one spot, you know you're headed in the
right direction. No idea what they're there for, must be a quest I haven't
participated in yet. There *is* a sneaky backway into the Hinterlands, from
the south shore of the lake in plaguelands, not far from Scholomance...
but it's not that easy to find either, and much farther to get to.

It's true there is very little listed, but it tends to be high quality
-- drops from Un'Garo and Zul Farrak I suppose. Prices for standard
stuff like Mageweave seem to be higher than Orgrimmar, and personally
I've had pretty good luck selling there.

Ahhh I see, will have to wait until I'm 40 too then, 36 atm.

Same here, died a few times on the way too. Then when I managed to get past
them saw 100ft mountains in the way! I found a bit called Uthers grave,
didn't go in though. I see the path on the map, will try it out today.

Unfortunately following the river all the way simply dumps
you into the lake in the Western Plaguelands. The pass Fug
wants is a little bit to the east of the river, and the way
he'll know he's on the right track is that there are 2 40th
level gryphons flapping their wings in the opening of a
valley that leads off to the northeast.

That may well be why it's in Gadgetzan.

And to the poster who suggested that Blizz push horde/alliance trading
-- perhaps it's a design feature that it's a royal pain in the rear.
You're not SUPPOSED to conduct inter-faction trade but, in this vile den
of scum and villainy, illegal things happen.

You're not SUPPOSED to die because of lag either, but that's
something Blizz hasn't quite gotten a handle on. A sufficiently
determined person will get operatives to Gadgetzan and conduct
cross-faction trades no matter what Blizzard thinks about it,
yet the more significant determining factors in how much it
happens (or perhaps I should say how much *I* do it) are the
outrageous 20% AH charge that Gadgetzan deducts from every
sale, and the corresponding inflated posting fee that's required
to list anything in the first place.

But Booty Bay is a viler den of scummier villainy than Gadgetzan could
ever dream of being!

I think they should make a boat trip from Steamwheedle Port to Booty
Bay/Ratchet in the first place.

I sold schematics for Mithril mechanical dragonling with a 20gold
buyout in Gadgetzan. Handy, handy, to have twice as many pigeons for
these, I netted 16.5gold (the recipe itself costs 50silver or something
like that at a hidden vendor in the Hinterlands).
