Have you ever wondered what it would look like to combine profession materials from all your alts and store them in a Warbank? No? Well you’re gonna find out anyway!
Haunting_Artist_1631 has done just that, stockpiling materials throughout 10 alt characters! Naturally, this sparked a lot of questions from the community, but don’t worry – we’ve got answers for you!
Why Do This?
The first question on everyone’s mind: why go through the trouble of hoarding instead of selling? Their reasoning is straightforward:
Some players are hoping to save a large amount of materials, creating an opportunity to profit from shifts in supply and demand with the new patch or even later ones. You never know what specific material might suddenly skyrocket in demand because of a new recipe. On the other hand, some users disagree with this strategy, calling it a gamble. They argue that it’s better to sell everything now, as the longer an expansion lasts, the lower the prices of materials tend to go.
The Community’s Perspective
While opinions differ on the economic strategy, many in the thread appreciated the sheer effort involved. How much time must it have taken? How much gold would all those materials be worth if sold? These are questions we’re all curious about!
It’s not just about the profits – it’s also about the view. There’s something satisfying about seeing such a massive collection of resources gathered in one place.
What would your Warbank look like if you pooled everything together? And do you REALLY even want to know?
