What are your favorite superior (blue) quality gem cut designs? Least favorite? Is there a pattern you wish you'd never laid eyes on, or one that you cut almost exclusively?
I'm a 69 lock who hit 350 tailoring and promptly dropped it for JC about a week ago. I hit 350 JC today and have a couple recipes (the ones from halaa and one or two more that were selling for < 200g on AH) and was wondering what your experiences were with superior cut gems.
Rugged dawnstone (i think thats the name) +8 hit rating
I have already made back my money on this in about the three weeks since i bought it. Key is to never have more than 2 or 3 of the cut gems on at once.
Other best sellers, if i have the name right ill put it, if not, ill just give the stats
+12 Stamina Solid Star of elune
+4 crit rating +6 stamina
Balanced Nightseye +8 attack power +6 stamina
Bracing Earthstorm Diamond +26 Healing, +9 spell damage, 2% threat reduction
Chaotic Skyfire +12 spell damage, +3%spell crit damage
Powerful Earthstorm +18stamina +5% stun resist
Relentless Earthstorm +12 Agility +3% crit damage
Tenacious Earthstorm Diamond +12 def rating, chance to restore health on hit
I also found that the Gleaming Dawnstone (+8 Spell Critical Rating) and the Bright Living Ruby (+16 Attack Power) sell quite well.
My fav designs are:
Bright living ruby +16 ap
Bold living ruby +8 str
Delicate living ruby +8 agi
Brilliant dawnstone +8 int
Solid star of elune +12 stam
Probably ther best sellers and most consistent to hold their value. They always sell quick.
I find Wicked Noble Topaz sells VERY well (70g average)
Bold Living Ruby and most of the yellow designs sell well.
