Rimu the Scribe

This is Rimu the Scribe. Today (9/06/11) we are going to dissect him for our science experiment.

------------------------------------------------------------------

- Level 450 inscription means could possibly make all glyphs except 1 (Collosal Smash)
- Cant make craft DM cards on this char, maybe sells infernos
- Second prof is herbalism, low level too cant pick whiptails and twilight jasmine. Only 66 so couldnt handle zone even if herbalism was high enough.

------------------------------------------------------------------

- 12 hour auctions
- Posts once a day
- around 300 glyphs per posting 

------------------------------------------------------------------

- non camper

------------------------------------------------------------------

- posts all 10 classes on this char

------------------------------------------------------------------

- posts 1 (sometimes 2) per glyph, no repeats

- 1cp undercut
- 300 auctions per posting session x 1 = 300 different glyphs out of a possible total of 343 for him
- threshold = 9g
- fallback (not shown in screenshot) = 350g
- most likely using Advance/Reset setting to force glyphs onto AH

------------------------------------------------------------------

- all glyphs known (except I think Collosal Smash which requires 465 to learn according to WH)

------------------------------------------------------------------

- only child, storage guild

------------------------------------------------------------------

- has been doing inscription since June

- crafts old darkmoon cards, quite likely mills old herbs not pure cata herbs only

- Endless Pockets only, not using new 36slot bags

------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusions

- possibly flies around herbing old world herbs. definitely uses old herbs
- sells 300 using 1 character, definitely juggles. but why not 344? is he choosing the "best"?
- maybe this a side business
- sells around 10-50 a day, brings in maybe 200 to 600g, or up to 1k on a good day
- wonder why he does 12hr auctions?

Routine is:

- logs on, clears gold and unsold glyphs from mailbox until bags are full

- throws those up on AH, clears more unsold from mailbox and throws those up too

- use TSM create a restock queue for those glyphs that sold

- buys some herbs and mills or buys inks

- craft and throw up on AH

- logs off

Advantages:
- has all glyph recipes
- main char/guild/alts unknown


Weaknesses:
- non camper
- low stock
- uses old world herbs
- greedy (high fallback)

Obviously threat level is relative to the assessor however i would quite easily class this glypher as a 3/10. Easily muscled out with a low ceiling and low floor. Blocking his sales and denying high profit sales will force him to improve himself or give up.


Remember the less information available, the harder it is to assess. Also, whatever you can find on your competitor, they can find on you if you do not hide it.

Ok Rimu you can put your clothes back on now.

Critical out.
