Cataclysm TradeskillMaster Plug-in (TSM)

Everyone has heard of the auctioneer, right? That’s the add-on with more than two million downloads that helps you win gold in world of warcraft. Before I get into the new wow gold creation plugin that works with the cataclysmic auctioneer, called TradeskillMaster (TSM), I’d like to first go over what makes the auctioneer a success.

1. The auctioneer tracks the data of all the items in the auction house.

Think of the stock market, wouldn’t it be great to see the current rate of items in the auction house, just like stocks in the real world? Well Auctioneer allows you to keep track of the ‘market value’ of your items so you know how to price according to this daily updated quantity.

2. Auctioneer helps you search for the auction house.

It’s good to hit search and find what you need all the time, right? Well, with the standard auction house, that’s not always the case. Auctioneer improves on all the standard features for Cataclysm Search and then goes ahead and adds a couple dozen additional enhancements such as sorting by seller, by market value, by profitability for resale, etc.

3. Auctioneer helps you publish your items.

Posting is a hassle, even with the up-to-date auction house in cataclysm, especially if you have thousands of items to sell. Just remembering the values ​​is exhausting, let alone writing them over and over again! Auctioneer allows you to store data based on how you want to sell the items and then simply hit batch post to launch all of them to the auction house with one click.

So what is TradeskillMaster and how does it come into play?

TSM works alongside the auctioneer, and appears literally next to the auction house tab when you talk to an auctioneer in wow. It has several features that automate and simplify auctioneer processes, as well as enhance these features even further. It also helps automate decision-making for making, selling, and canceling.

1. Shopping lists

Do you just want to buy the list of items you need for your auction house business? Now you can press a button and see all the items you would like to use for crafting purposes.

2. Automatic smart publishing

Now you can base your price on the percentage cost of the materials needed, not just the set values ​​that you used to have to create on your own with the auctioneer setup. Creating rule sets that are much more advanced than the standard auctioneer functionality is also possible and fairly easy to implement.

3. Automatic cancellation of undercutting auctions

Instantly cancel your auctions that have been undermined by the competition with the push of a button! You can then use automatic rule sets to intelligently republish them based on current prices and long-term market values.

4. Identify elements to elaborate

Easily see what items you can create with TSM, and then with a click of the mouse configure them as part of a build list, and identify the items required to create them.
