Ink Traders not updated to mop?

[Knight978]

Was wondering if this is a bug or what but the ink trader has not been updated to the new ink, ink of dreams. Can someone please answer this when i google starlight ink it says the ink traders allow me to trade 10x ink of dreams for 1 starlight ink yet it is not there, and everything is based on cata ink.

They might delay it a bit, I have no idea. Noticed that as well

It's kind of odd, as with the 5.0.3 MoP pre-patch everything required Ink of Dreams (also, alchemy specializations required MoP materials). I don't know why, or how it has been changed back to Cata stuff along with the MoP release... they got it all wrong!

There was a blue quote about delaying it by ~2 weeks for everyone to hand in their old inks.. Yeah Blizz, that was called your prepatch >_>

They said that it will be updated after 2 weeks, in order for everyone to get rid of their old inks.

I just hope they're doing it before the DMF comes to town. I'm sitting on a nice amount of Ink of the dreams ready to get converted to cards.

but, you can only make 1 a day. so even if you made one every day, you prolly would still not be able to get a full set together. ive been combining efforts with other scribes to organize trades for specific decks, and have gotten half of a tigers deck while helping to get together a crane and serpent deck for fellow scribes. networking is the only way ur gonna get a set for dkmn, or spending what could only be imagined as a huge sum of gold on AH.

Or having multiple scribes... I know several people that went into MoP with at least 5 scribes solely for extra scrolls. I personally have 3 and am thinking about making at least one more.

If its two weeks than people are screwed cause thats 3 days after the DMF leaves. I have been making them every day the hard way... massive farming which giving the number of nodes isnt actually all that hard.

This is so stupid. Just to make 3 DMF cards (30 green inks) i got 300 white inks that i can't do anything with because i can't trade them. At this rate I'll be stuck with 6000-7000 white inks by the time the fair is over.... (I got 5 scribes in anticipation of DMF trinkets) GG Blizz. I think trading new inks would be more usefull. People had time to trade old inks before the expansion came out.

[darkwing1232]

well on a plus if you want to make a couple more scribes now is definitely the time to do it cause Cata herbs are dirt cheap like less than 50s each so creating a few hundred Blackfallow Inks to bring a fresh scribe from 1 to 525 would be a cake walk.

[xskarma]

Well crap. I normally keep up with the news, but I missed this tidbit. If they stick to their 2 week promise then we should be able to start trading inks on the 9th in the US 10th in EU while the Darkmoon Faire ends the 13th. It's close but we should be able to get it done. Now I'm just praying I'll have enough room to store all the inks >.<

Could you give me a source on that? I just can't find that anywhere, and would like the exact wording of them. According to a GM ingame, it was actually a bug...

Quoting myself quoting Blizzard:

To quote the third developer blog on Professions from Monday:


Please note that ink traders will continue to accept Blackfallow Ink for a week or two after the expansion to give players a chance to liquidate their old ink supplies. After this short period, ink traders will only accept Ink of Dreams (the new common ink in Mists of Pandaria) and Starlight Ink will become available for purchase.

Thank you very much.

Lol buy your herbs and mill them into starlight and sell them now or you'll miss out on a lot of gold... Same for decks I guess.
