Lol, I'm dropping mining

So what is the point of being a miner these days? Elementium bar on my server is going for 3g a bar for about a week. Thanks under-cutters, time to drop mining.

3g a bar? I wonder if it's worth it to transfer just to buy it all up, then transfer back.

Seriously.

Although only about 8g a bar on my realm.

I've invested before in pricing resets (not for Elementium) if the undercuts get too far out of hand. It's always worked out, but depending on the amount out there can be a substantial buy-in.

I started Cataclysm with ~3g on my miner, and hit 85 with 11.5k. That's not all from selling ore obviously, but making money hasn't been too tough.
