You might find yourself doing dailies until it sells (or worse, taking a loss). If you find something for 100k gold that you can sell for 200k however, it takes three months. If you find something that's worth 10 times as much where you're going but you only have room for 500 gold's worth of it, you're only making 5,000g (not to mention leaving a lot behind). You have several walls you can bump into, depending on your setup, and you want to try and pick as good a mix of goods as you can. It seems simple, and it is - well, mostly. If you possess the right leverage on your source realm, this alone might be worth the money and trouble.īuy stuff cheap on your source realm that sells for more on your destination realm. It also gives you a huge amount of storage room you can use to store items for arbitrage. It costs $10 more to move a guild with you, letting you move as much gold as the majority of people would ever be able to. On the plus side, if you have a character that's been the GM of a guild for the required seven days, moving a guild includes a realm transfer for the GM. As was mentioned in the email, one recent work-around was introduced recently: The only limit on the amount of gold a transferred guild can bring is the guild gold cap - 1 million gold.
I suppose for the vast majority of players, that's fine however, it doesn't take much work to end up with many times more that. If you're over level 80, you can bring 50,000g. I won't speculate about why, but the limits are set per level, available at the Blizzard support page. You can't just carry any arbitrary amount of gold with you when you move realms. And similarly to cross-faction arbitrage, there's actually money to be made - even if you're aiming to bring more wealth with you than you're strictly allowed to. What this amounts to is cross-realm arbitrage. Should I buy all the expensive items I can find and try to sell them on my new realm? Should I making a guild to transfer where there is virtually no limit on gold? Transferring two characters over is expensive enough already. I am planning to transfer my main alt to my new realm, and I'd love to find a way to bring that money with me. Having done that already I still have a lot of now useless gold on my old realm. I had a decent amount of gold on my old realm, but I'm only allowed to transfer 50k gold with my character. This turned out to be a good move on my part and I'm planning to stay there. I have recently transferred to a new low population realm to try my raiding luck in a new guild.
I received an interesting email from a reader who is looking to transfer all of his gold to a new realm:
