World of Warcraft: A pre-patch 2.4 to-do list - Image 1As you guys will recall, Blizzard had announced that World of Warcraft's game patch 2.4 has finished its run in the test realms. Given that this means the patch will going public very soon, you're probably wondering what sort of preparations you'll need to make.

With that in mind, we're letting you know about a handy guide that Teza over at the WorldofRaids site set up. It's a list of the sort of purchases and sells you may want to take advantage of before the patch 2.4 kicks in.

Here's a summary of what you'll want to do:
  • Alchemy
    • Transmute Arcanite no longer has a cooldown, so you should get rid of your arcanite bars, it's currently selling for 15-25 gold on the auction house but you can expect the prices to be cut in half with the arrival of patch 2.4.
  • Enchanting
    • You should buy Void Crystals
    • 2.4 is introducing a new recipe to shatter a Void Crystal into two Large Prismatic Shards (once every 23 hours).
    • You should stack up materials for the most wanted enchants
    • Sunwell patch is adding a bunch of new items to the game, therefore Enchanters will be greatly solicited in the first weeks.
    • You might as well stock Arcane Tomes and Fel Armaments for shoulder enchants.
  • Herbalism
    • On European realms (not sure for US realms), you can sell Fel Lotus for 27-35 gold on the auction house, and you should consider selling them now since it will be much easier to get thanks to 2.4 changes (Fel Lotus' price will be affected)
  • Jewelcrafting
    • Spell haste will get a buff in 2.4, it will reduce the global cooldown on spells, so spell haste will be more important than before.
We remind the readers that this is just a glimpse of what you may want to do to prepare for WoW's new patch. Teza's full to-do guide is available for viewing via the source link.
