The Blade of Misfortune is one of the top 5 items I try and look for when buying and reselling in the Auction House? Why? Because it usually nets me at least 100g in 24 hours or less. This sword is highly sought after by many classes, and for several reasons.
First, it is an outstanding level 60 PvP weapon for Paladins, Warriors, and Death Knights. The strength and critical strike combo leaves it nearly unmatched. It is by far the best BoE 2-handed weapon you can get in the game at level 60.
Second, if not using a Bind on Account Heirloom weapon, this is top of the line for leveling when hitting 60. If avoiding dungeons while leveling, this sword will last until level 66 or 67, so well worth the investment.
Third, for people like me, it is a great money maker if you can find it at the right price. I make two auction house scans a day. One in the early morning, and one late at night. This is always the first thing I check for.
Reselling Blade of Misfortune
When buying the Blade of Misfortune to resell, I follow some very simple, but strict guidelines.
- Purchase at 300g or less
- Never sell for less than 375g
- Re-sell at 375g if other Blades are up for auction, so long as 375g would be the lowest buyout.
- Sell for 450g if the only Blade on the market, let run for 48 hours.
- If no buyers at 48 hours, drop price to 425g for another 48 hours.
- If no buyers still at this point, and no other Blades on the AH, sell for 400g buyout until it sells.
- Never sell for more than 500g.
