[Frostmourne] Formulas spawn rate

Hey guys,
I cant find another topic about this. Getting required formula/schematic/plans from NPC in frostmourne is nightmare - for example Runed Arcanite Rod in moonglage. At least 5-10 ppl standing there all the time (probably some bots) waiting for it to spawns. The AH prices for this one on AH gets to 2000g (like 200ilvl boe item).

I dont think this is good, if mob spawn rate was increased to really sick value, why not formulas? At least for some time.

I dont know, maybe its worth considerating. Gimme Your thoughts.

It would be changing a game's mechanics due to *******s. The same *******s were on retail so I don't see it getting changed.

But changing spawning timer for mobs, inc exp/proff rates, adding mercenary mode, entire vote/coins shop, character trade, gold sell, adding 1 more flush in the week isnt changing mechanic as well? I mean its already far far far from retail-like.

Well it is, but in a different way. It's more of a quality of life changes for lazy people and marketplace is a part of every private server. You gotta ask yourself at what point does it start being actual changing of the game. Increase spawn rates of vendor single stack items, then what goes next? Orgrimmar trainers train WotLK recipes? If you keep going it will be heavily different and besides it's just one recipe. Buy a rod off AH, you don't need a recipe and it's probably cheaper or get the mats and have some1 craft it for you.

Im talking here about runed arcanite rod, like title. Arcanite Rod (from BS) is not a problem.

Runed arcanite rod is for enchanter. its required to progress enchanting. Its soulbound once You make it. Plans are sold by just 1 NPC in game with horrific cooldown.

This plan can be sold on AH - they are worth ~2k on frostmourne, so in price of 200ilvl epic boe.

I've seen there are 3-5 recipes on AH. usually 3/4 or 2/3 are from one guy. Is he 24/7 camping NPC and is so lucky that he gets every recipe he can? With 90% success rate?
Ofc no, its bot that stands there all the time. And it is a quality of life change imo, just as mob spawn rates for early realm.

Aha, didn't know it's soulbound.
All he needs to know is when he bought it the first time. Then he can easily calculate when it's next spawn will be, doesn't mean he's a bot. Get some1 from opposite faction to camp him maybe or make your own toon to do it. It's just the way it is. People are using game's mechanics to make money, even if they are *******s for doing it. The same thing is on Lordaeron with Adamantite Rod for BS but I still managed to buy it. He can't be online 24/7.

Problem is there are like 5 horde & 5 ally 80lvl all the time :) The floor is full of skeletons, there is regular faction war in Moonglade (idk how to get there when You are not druid lol, I made just lvl 10 toon). Let it be, probably small chances to change it. Ill just farm 2k gold, it should be easier ^^

Yep. There was another post on the forum claiming it costs 500-1k on AH. Maybe continously check prices over a period of time to get it cheaper.

Post is no longer actual - they reconsidered our feedback and actually changed it. Seems like it doesnt have cooldown now :)
