Did you invest in Garrison Auction House parts? Are you stocking up on any old-school materials?TradeSkillMaster teamofficially released version 4 of their addon suiteThe day has finally arrived! Close to two years of development by a dozen team members past and present, developing a staggering 75,000 lines of code to form quite possibly the biggest ever World of Warcraft addon project, in terms of scope and functionality.

We are incredibly proud and thrilled to say, TradeSkillMaster 4 has officially launched.

If you’ve been participating in the beta program, you’ll receive a final update through the TSM Desktop application containing the public release version of the addon. As a Premium subscriber, your application will also handle updating to the release version and any other updates released in the future.

After the beta program finishes, downloading TSM4 and keeping it up to date will be possible through Twitch or Curseforge, depending on your preferences.

For those of you who haven’t been following the beta, we wanted to share some overviews on what to expect in the new version of TSM - along with some top new features.

Accessibility
One of the main priorities for the new version of TradeSkillMaster is to make it much more accessible to new users. In order to do this we have merged all of the TSM modules in to one core addon, this means you no longer have to separately keep track of multiple addons and their different versions. You now only need two addons, the main TradeSkillMaster addon and the TSM AppHelper addon to get up and running!

Once TSM is installed, you’ll notice it has been completely redesigned and rebuilt from the ground up. The new UI design was made with ease-of-use in mind, surfacing frequently used features or tools within the addon. Under-the-hood too, our code-base rebuild has led to more efficient loading times and performance when scanning, collecting mail or handling inventory.

We discussed the philosophy behind the redesign in a previous blog post

Power Users
Not forgetting experienced goblins and gold-makers, our intent with TSM4 was to also provide the opportunity to take a veteran or power user to the next level by introducing powerful new logic functions and exposing more data as sources to be referenced in operations.

Building upon check() function, you can now also use logic-based parameters including:
ifgt() – “If Greater Than” or iflte() – “If Less Than or Equal To” and the new round() function for standard rounding.

In addition, being able to reference more data points in your operations allows for incredible granularity. With this in mind, and based on lots of feedback over the years, we have introduced the likes of DBRegionSaleRate, NumExpires, ItemLevel, and DBRegionSoldPerDay as sources that can be called in your operations.

You can read more about this in our Deep Dive blog post.

TradeSkillMaster Core
Taking a look inside the addon itself now, the main TSM window has received a major overhaul.

The first thing you’ll notice is the Dashboard, where you can see a summary of your gold-making and catch up on TSM News. Here you’ll see how you’re doing with your gold-making at a glance, with selected highlights from your top sold or most profitable items.

The new Group Tree is now headed by the all-encompassing Base Group. The Base Group essentially handles all items that are not in a group and comes with some basic ‘default’ operations out-of-the-box. This means you can now install TSM4 as a brand new user and get started with posting items from your inventory, crafting things from your profession and sniping cheap deals off the Auction House. The Group Tree also allows for incredibly easy organization since we’ve added drag-and-drop group management.

Importing and Exporting TradeSkillMaster settings has also been supercharged, with the addition of options to include custom prices and skip previously imported operations.

Auctioning
Posting items on the Auction House is usually a key way to make gold, so ensuring the Auctioning module of TradeSkillMaster is the best it can be was a big priority as part of the rebuild.

The Quick Post From Bags function has evolved as part of the Base Group, you can now select individual items to ‘quick post’ or run a full post scan against your Base Group with the default Auctioning operation.

On the back-end, efficiency improvements were made and running auctioning or cancel scans are much quicker in TSM4.

Once you’ve posted your auctions, you need a place to review what is posted and check for incoming sales. With the release of TSM4 we have introduced a new view in the addon called My Auctions which replaces the default Blizzard UI ‘Auctions’ tab. This lists your current auctions, sales and notes which group they’re in and how long is remaining on the auction.

Within this interface, you can also filter your auctions by duration and item name - then cancel everything without checking for undercuts.

Shopping
Many improvements have been made to TSM Shopping, including faster scanning just like Auctioning. The recent and favorite search section has been built upon, allowing you to save frequent searches and rename them for easier access. Shopping scans are also much more efficient, as with other forms of scanning.

Sniper was formerly part of the TSM Shopping module, however this tool has now been separated out in to its own first class feature. We’ve created a new type of operation for Sniper to allow extra granularity, applying the maximum Sniper price to a specific group of items - rather than a generic one-size-fits-all Sniper function, as it was in TSM3. In addition, we’ve also developed a Bid Sniper, allowing you to snipe auctions that are about to expire from the Auction House. Sniper will now also highlight new results by lifting them to the top of the list, plus offers to remove an item from the list that you don’t want to see.

Crafting
The TradeSkillMaster profession interface has also been completely rebuilt, allowing much easier access to the information you need in order to make decisions on what to craft. At-a-glance data like profit, region sale rate and recipe rank are all included in the main profession window.
You can also access a list of everything you can craft across all of your characters in the Crafting Reports, with contextual information like which operation is assigned, item value and profit along with an option to click-to-queue. Adding custom values or prices to your materials is also managed in this menu.

Gathering leveled up in TSM4 too, with the new Gathering priority system. You can tell TSM in which order to prioritise sources to collect items from including buying from the Auction House, your alts, your guild banks, crafting it when it’s profitable (or not) and purchasing from a vendor. The Gather window also has a list of materials set to be gathered and notes what you have and what you still need from each source.

TSM Task List
This is a new feature in TSM4, and is quite possibly the most exciting foundational tool to build upon in the future of TradeSkillMaster. Upon initial release, the new Task List will handle all of your daily cooldowns and gathering for your crafting queue as discussed in the previous section. You can remove cooldowns you’re not interested in, and use the prompts to logout of a character, move items from your bank, send materials to a crafter or buy items from the Auction House or a vendor.

In the future, the Task List will potentially be the driving component of nearly everything you do with TradeSkillMaster - offering prompts based on other operations like Auctioning or Crafting, or tracking custom tasks like a farming objective.

Vendoring, Mailing & Warehousing
These TradeSkillMaster modules have received the TSM4 treatment, with a new UI design and under-the-hood robustness. Collecting mail, and moving items are much faster in TSM4, plus each module functions on the new and powerful Group Tree structure that underpins the TSM4 addon suite. TSM Mailing now also allows quick sending to alts, friends and guild-mates, plus drag-and-drop or right-click to add items to send in individual mail for the first time in TSM.

SamadanPlaysWoWHave you downloaded TSM4 yet? What's your favourite feature? Will you be checking out TSM for the first time with version 4? How many groups and operations do you have in TSM?Lazy GoldmakerLegion spreadsheetLazy Goldmaker shared his plans for Battle for Azeroth, including a call for crowd-sourced data on the /r/woweconomy subredditI know a lot of you have been using my Legion spreadsheet to help you make the best gold making decisions you can.

I am happy to say that I will be making a BfA version, in fact I've already started. I'm planning to have it finished by the time BfA launches so you can use it from day one to look at the various crafts you have available.

I'll obviously be posting a link as soon as it's close to being publishable, but I will be building the full spreadsheet in Excel first, then exporting it to google sheets (as then I only have to do it once).

To actually finish the spreadsheet completely I will need data from the actual live servers however. Shuffles, prospecting, milling, expulsom, proc rates etc. will have to be verified in the live environment before we can know the real values.

In Legion I verified the prospecting rates myself by collecting all the posts I could find on prospecting yields. As I want to get the spreadsheet fully up to speed as quickly as possible I am planning to help the community out by organizing some data collections repositories. I'll most likely make some google forms that I'll post to the subreddit so we can get the data organized easily and quickly.

For those of you interested in my thoughts on BfA professions I have started posting them on my blog and will continue to do so over the next weeks!highly recommend checking his blogDo you ever use spreadsheets as part of your gold-making strategies? Have you ever made own? What's your laziest or easiest way of making gold?To enter: leave a comment below (minimum 1-2 sentences) responding to any of the Discussion Points from this week's post.

Комментарий от BashcutterHonestly one of the best and most useful economy wrapup in a whileКомментарий от ninjacob555I'm super excited about TSM4, but I cannot find a download link for it? I wasn't in the beta, or anything, so is It downloadable now?
I've been using TSM3 for a while now, but I'm not very good with it haha, I only have groups for my Tailoring stuff, and also Alchemy.Комментарий от KanktankI'm really excited for TSM4's release. I got into gold making last summer (partially due to needing WoW tokens), spending two weeks learning the ins and outs and setting it up. Since then I've enjoyed the simplicity of making gold, but I'm looking forward to a better looking interface, playing around with the new functions, and setting everything up for BFA in the next few weeks.Комментарий от warzielgamingLooking forward this spreadsheet, really useful during legion !Комментарий от globex45Do you ever use spreadsheets as part of your gold-making strategies? Have you ever made own? What's your laziest or easiest way of making gold?

With how many things need to be constantly juggling in your mind and be taken care of, I might as well start doing that. I am already making lists in Word to keep track of all the raids, dungeons, dailies and other duties I need to take care of WoW (and can't find an addon that can cover them all to complete take away the need to make a list). And in BFA I plan to earn some gold hehe. Let us see.Комментарий от Deathly999Hopefully i can get into goldmaking with TSM 4.Комментарий от fh1988Since I have mine complete, I sell any Garrison AH parts I find. And I don't stock up on old mats.Комментарий от DragomirI used to use TSM, but it was a bit much for a casual AHer. Maybe I'll give the new one a go, if it's a bit more friendly to new users.Комментарий от vorontuSad for the guy who waste 800k on modules
One day I hope I wil learn how to use TSM properly...Комментарий от brister417I was in beta for TSM4, as an avid TSM user in the past, I found that posting had become a lot more convoluted with the requirement of custom operations at the time. It looks like this has been smoothed out. I am excited to give it a go again as we get closer to release of BFA. It was my gold maker and daddy needs a Bronto AH Mount!Комментарий от DicathI use Lazy Goldmaker's spreadsheet all the time! It's super useful to have along with many other resources for gold making.Комментарий от DaggersEdgeI have numerous Garrison Auction House parts stored in one of my character's bank in case I ever needed it. I suppose I could try selling them at some point. I did download TSM3 not long ago, but personally did not find it very easy to use. TSM4 seems promising for people, though!Комментарий от Voodikgreat releaseКомментарий от kolleGj with the TSM addon. I have not changed from TSM3 to TSM4 yet, but i guess it's soon time so i get to try it out a bit before BFA launch. I mostly use the addon for accounting, crafting cost and for a much better AH UI than the standard one.Комментарий от ketsunii never used tsm because it was too confusing. I hope that with this new one i will be able to figure it out how to use it.Комментарий от TrollbellendDecided to care more about making gold in bfa, excited to use tms4 and the spredsheet to help!Комментарий от ZikkiusRemoval of the Universal Language Module was quite an unexpected change but finally made the garrison auction house more accesible to people so thanks to it i will finally get the ah in my garrison.Комментарий от rubenmsallesFinally TSM4 is released. Goblins of the world, is time to download!Комментарий от ElloreI’m just a part-time goblin, so I used the most basic functions of TSM. These changes seem to make it more accessible and easy to understand. Maybe in BFA I am hoping to be more profitable with it.Комментарий от nisxNever used TSM before but i decided to try it and im enjoying it so far. Lots of options and its a little overwhelming at the start but i managed to get the basics atleast. Im looking forward to try it in BFA with all of the new mats and crafts
