In Search of Fortune: Nothing New

Welcome to ‘In Search of Fortune’, a monthly series where I discuss my gold goals and in-game money making strategies.

So, I may have missed a month in there somewhere. Unfortunately, it’s because it was a slow month… months. Really, isn’t the whole Shadowlands expansion a little slow, though? For me, not terribly slow in terms of gold making, I’m still hitting almost 600k per month in profit, just, well, nothing that different from the last post. There are a couple of things, though, that I wanted to highlight. So continue reading for some interesting examples flips from my mailbox and my TSM breakdown screen for the past 3 months.

Gamer Art: March 2021

Check out March’s Featured Gamer Art, a monthly column of art that I’ve found found in the past few weeks. Art can include paintings, drawings, digital art, physical crafts, cosplay and more.

So… this was kind of a weird month. Typically, as I exist online over the course of the month I save links to these pictures as a preliminary edit of this post. When I’m ready to make the post, I download the images, upload them here, add those links to these pics, etc. Well, this month, almost half of the art I had found has been removed for one reason or another. So this one is a little light, but, I guess we’ll make do. This month’s Gamer Art is mostly World of Warcraft Oriented, but we have some Pokemon art and a Resident Evil Cosplay to mix things up.

Gamer Art: February 2021

Check out February’s Featured Gamer Art, a monthly column of art that I’ve found found in the past few weeks. Art can include paintings, drawings, digital art, physical crafts, cosplay and more.

This month I had enough cool cosplay I found that I was tempted to make a separate section for that alone, I didn’t, but feedback on that idea would be welcome. Also, most websites that I see featuring art and cosplay tend to have a bunch of bricks of text about each, typically I don’t care about what the author thinks or has to say about the character backgrounds and just want to see the art… but is that what everyone else would like? More to comment on, I’m sure. Finally, check the end of this for a video of a cool tattoo. It’s embedded, but doesn’t fit into my normal formatting. See ya next month.

Gamer Art: January 2021

Check out January’s Featured Gamer Art, a monthly column of art that I’ve found found in the past few weeks. Art can include paintings, drawings, digital art, physical crafts, cosplay and more.

This month features art & cosplay from WoW, Mortal Kombat, Hollow Knight, Among us, Horizon Zero Dawn, Fate GO, & Red Dead Redemption. For the first time on this series there’s a car wrap that is amazing. As always, you can click the image for a larger version and click the links on them for the sources where I found the images.

In Search of Fortune: Slow and Steady

Welcome to ‘In Search of Fortune’, a monthly series where I discuss my gold goals and in-game money making strategies.

Recently, I’ve been playing quite a bit of other things (check out What I’m Currently Playing) and WoW has been getting less attenion in general, let alone gold making. Despite that, my last month hasn’t been a terrible step in building my fortune – 591,029g profit according to my TSM. I’ll break that down a little and give a couple tips as to how to many simple things can make a decent amount of gold without much extra effort (such as command table missions).

Shadowlands Predictions Part 2: Patch 9.1

WoW’s Shadowlands patch 9.1 is coming up… soon? In this post, we’ll discuss the release date based on historical x.1 patch dates (remember how we were right about the Shadowlands release date, until they changed it), new legendaries (maybe), the new raid, our guess for tier sets in this patch, and more. As always, make sure to subscribe or book mark or just remember alternateimage.net/gaming or however people find websites these days… because there will continue to be information on Warcraft’s upcoming content as well as other games.
