Draenor Ore Will Not Be Prospectable – Gems Obtained Via Dailies
by JR Cook - 10 years ago show comments
If you had plans for using your Garrison mine as a non-stop supply of ore to be prospected for the Auction House, you will be out of luck. The ore in Draenor will not be prospectable by jewelcrafters.
Confirmed, No new "Ore Shuffle" in #Warlords. New ore will NOT be prospectable. #WoW #GoldMaking #Professions #Jewelcrafting

While the ore has not been noted as being prospectable, many assumed it was just beta and hadn’t been enabled yet. Instead jewelcrafters will have to obtain their gems from Garrison workorders and a daily cooldown which is created by combining Taladite Crystal with specific herbs depending on the cut.

This will also cut into the profits of those who play the auction house by using “ore shuffle”, which is essentially prospecting ore, cutting and selling the rare gems in a variety of cuts for the Auction House, then crafting and disenchanting uncommon jewelry.
