    Chaos Orbs - What should be done?

    What should be done with Chaos Orbs

    I cant seem to be able to get rid of them

    Nobody is crafting now that the xpac is almost over i have tons of them and i cant vendor them

    Should blizz do what they did in wrath and be able to buy stuff with them volatiles maybe even enchanting mats patts etc

    or are they gonna sit in my bankalts gbank gathering dust?

    Make cloth and Illusion Bags? These should still sell, even when MoP arrives with the new bags.
    Cairne wanted to thank him again, to offer encouragement, praise for a task so successfully completed. For being able to bear such burdens. But Saurfang was an orc, not a blood elf, and lavish compliments and effusion would not be welcomed or wanted.

    Definitely go the Illusionary bag way. you will be able to craft the bags at cloth price.

    It takes 16 stacks of cloth to make one bag. So figure out the cost of embersilk on your server and if you are truly just trying to unload your chaos orbs, sell the bags for something over the cost of the embersilk.

    Its crazy right now, mat costs on my server for the bags is about 3000 to 3400 gold, and there are numerous bags on the AH for 2000 to 2500... So I too am looking for something to do with the 100 or so orbs that I have... but bags just are not an option right now.

    Oh I wish someone was unloading them on my server - 60-90g each is not cheap lol

    Im not sure what realm you are on ,but Chaos orbs are always on buyouts ,even now since bags are needed. I would advise waiting til 5.0 if you want to take a bit more advantage ,since tailors will be makeing bags etc ,like crazy.

    Again it can depend on the server.

    Are bags gonna be a big seller with shared mounts and most people having access to travellers tundra mount etc

    this has always put me off making those 26slot bags like i said ive been burned so many times on them

    i know 16-20 slot bags will sell but anything after that is a white elephant imho

    but i guess if choas orbs are gonna collect dust then maybe bags are the only option

    All my alts are sporting full bag capacity lol

    Unless blizz comes up with something to do with chaos orbs i guess bags is the only logical choice

    With monks rolling out in 5 weeks, bags are a sound choice.

    If you are unable to sell them on the AH and have no wish to craft bags or anything else with them, rejoice, because as far as I remember from my brief time in the beta, they will be sellable to vendors for some gold come 5.0, much like Frozen Orbs and Primal Nethers can. 6 gold per orb, according to Wowhead.

    Bags are really the only viable option to get rid of chaos orbs going forward. You may have more luck with profiting off this once MoP is actually released, but I wouldn't expect anything to make a killing for you at this point in time.

    If you'd rather not make bags you can try trading Chaos Orbs for another item that is equal price now but will skyrocket in Mists. I know several people trading Inferno Ink for the lesser Inks, because it saves them money. While using those Inferno Inks now to make Etched Horns to DE is the most profitable, come Mists those lesser Inks will make glyphs that will sell very very well.

    I can't particularly think of something to trade for Chaos Orbs now, but you know your server better than I do.

    Bags. On my server orbs are still high priced just because of bags.

    Chances are they are going to hold their value well just because of the bags.
