Part one of my series has a full Transmogrification Snatch List for Cloth robes / sets, and for offhands. Some tips for what to search for in the Auction House. Get to know the looks of different sets by browsing the Auction House for a few minutes. Whilst you wait for a dungeon queue to pop or for a battleground group to form. You can flip any of the crafted items if you see a tailor selling them too cheap. Flipping means “buy cheap, resell high”.

Avoid
- Twilight Cultist Robes
- Common/”white” robes eg Tuxedo Jacket & Wedding dress. These sell ok to bank alts. The Haliscan set does not sell as well, it’s not as well known and less requested.
- Leggings under level 10, ie tattered shorts!
- Durable set
- Common/”green” Northrend robes (70-80)
- Plain Cataclysm (80-85) gear. It’s just too much like a leveling nub. Who wants to look like that?
- Bracers. They get hidden under gloves.
- Heads/hats need to be special or very different. Players tend to ‘hide’ their helms and cloaks if they can’t find one they like.
Offhands
- Sparklers (supplicant’s rod, gossamer rod) avoid the common/”white” sparklers.
- Skulls (Demon-skull orb)
- Basilisk Bone
- Lapidis Tankard of Tidessippe
- Geomancer’s Rod
- Mistscape Stave
- Dreamseeker Dandelion
- Rod of Molten Fire
- Evergreen Branch
- Bonecaster’s Star
Avoid
- The generic purple book with 3 green blobs. zzz
- Spheres-on-a-stick. Unless they’re twinkly like the 80+ uncommon offhand spheres.
- Don’t buy the roses and bouquets that you can get from the vendor.
Shields coming soon!
Notes: Why aren’t there any prices on the items?
Prices are in flux at the moment. After a surge in players wanting items for transmogrification in patch 4.3, prices are settling. Your server will vary! I suggest a regular scan with Auctioneer or Trade Skill Master, or check your current prices in The Undermine Journal.
I saw your screenshots, and you’re not getting as much gold as I can for those items?
You can make more with transmogrifying. I play it safe and try to double or triple my prices, because there is always a risk that competing items will become available in small or large numbers, and crash the prices below my buying prices. I don’t like to gamble. I want to make a good profit, then put that profit to work with the next item.
I know an item that you haven’t included?
Comment below and I’ll add it to the list. Next in the series: Leather & Mail. Plate & Shields. Weapons. Transmog tools and Auctionator Lists.
