I've just released a new profile for WoW Retail, BilisRetailTWW(v1.0) for all T3 "TSM Profiles + Early Access" patrons.

All T2 "TSM Profiles" patrons will also gain access to this profile in time for the launch of the new The War Within expansion (unless there are any unexpected major issues).

Edit: The profile is available to all T2 "TSM Profiles" patrons now.

This is a continuation of the retail DF profile, but thanks to some of the amazing new TSM 4.14 features it is more of an overhaul.

How to get the new profile:

As usual, as a T3 "TSM Profiles + Early Access" patron, you just need to send your TradeSkillMaster.lua file that is located in your World of Warcraft/_retail_/WTF/Account/<YourAccount>/SavedVariables/ folder to the @BilisOnyxia Bot#1288 via DM. The bot will add the new profile to your file and return the file to you.

Keep in mind that while this will not override any of your existing profiles, it will override all of the "bilis" custom sources and reset them to their default values. If you have made changes to these custom sources, you might want to note them down or take a screenshot, so that you can easily reapply those changes after the update.

Changelog BilisRetailTWW(v1.0)

•  Added new TWW items (currently only the base item versions are grouped, for some items I will add the ItemLevel versions as well in the future).

• Moved DF items into the appropriate Old Content groups.

• Simplified the groups (there is no need for sub-groups based on the exact stack size thanks to the new MaxStack value source).

• Added sniper operations.

• Reworked almost all operations:

    • Reduced the overall number of operations.

    • Vendoring operations now allow you to purchase/restock items to flip.

    • Auctioning, shopping and sniping operations all account for VendorBuy, ensuring that you sell your vendor items at a profit and that you don't buy/snipe vendor items that you could just buy from a vendor for cheaper (this only works for items that you have seen at a vendor)

    • Increased the maximum prices of auctioning operations to better handle heavily fluctuating prices, especially early on in TWW.

• Moved pretty much all items that can be bought from vendors into "Vendor" sub groups. These items aren't treated any differently (aside from vendor transmog and recipes), but you will be able to see if an item could be bought from a Vendor in your tooltip, allowing for more educated purchasing decisions, especially if you do not have any VendorBuy data yet.

• Added a new custom source bilisminshoppingvalue to exclude items below a certain value from shopping and sniper scans, as well as when buying vendor items.

• Adjusted the default values of some custom sources to utilize the new MaxStack value source. This source enables us to use different rules for non-stackable and stackable items with one and the same custom source.

• Added many old content items that were missing from the profile.

• Added a "DELETE" group. As the name suggests, you can simply delete this group if you want. It has no operations assigned. I use it when I am updating the profile.

Warning:

As most DF gear will no longer be relevant in terms of actually equipping characters, this new profile only has the Base Item versions of DF BoEs grouped, along with any other "transmog" items. This means that TSM will no longer differentiate between your higher ilvl versions and other versions of the item, so it might post your items at a cheaper price than what you expect.

If you'd prefer to still differentiate between the different item level versions for these items, make sure to add the "Item Level" versions to your groups.

Also, as a general word of caution: Pricing data for new items won't be very reliable (if it's even available) for a little while. You shouldn't necessarily trust TSM's pricing data while prices are really volatile early on. It usually takes a little while for prices to settle and for pricing data to catch on.

This is not to say that you cannot use TSM or my profile early on, but you'll want to be a bit more cautious than usual and might have to manually purchase and post items at times, if the operations don't handle things quite right just yet.

I've just released a new profile for WoW Cataclysm Classic for the current pre-patch and the upcoming expansion, available to all "TSM Profiles" tier patrons and above!

The profile is a continuation of the previous WotLK profile, but now also includes groups and operations for all of the new Cataclysm items, as well as some other improvements. You can check out the full changelog below.

As usual, to get the new profile you just need to send a message with your TradeSkillMaster.lua file that is located in your World of Warcraft/_classic_/WTF/Account/<YourAccount>/SavedVariables/ folder to the BilisOnyxia Bot on my discord server. The bot will add the new profiles to your file and return the file to you.

Keep in mind that while this will not override any of your existing profiles, it will override all of the "bilis" custom sources and reset them to their default values. If you have made changes to these custom sources, you might want to note them down or take a screenshot, so that you can easily reapply those changes after the update.


Changelog BilisClassicCata(v1.0):
• Added groups for all new Cataclysm items.
• Added a bunch of missing items from earlier expansions.
• Changed the bilisitemvalue custom source to adjust to falling prices more quickly if both the realm specific and the regional pricing trend is downwards. This should help quite a bit when items have been very rapidly falling in price and the DBMarket pricing data hasn't quite caught up yet, but there is a clear downwards trend.
• Changed the way the minimum price and "Posting disabled" feature are handled. Your minimum price will now always be high enough for the profile to not disable posting, unless this would cause your minimum price to get unreasonably high. This means you will only get "Posting disabled" for all of the operations if an item really is not worth selling on the AH.
• Increased the default value of the bilisdumpthresholdpct custom source from 170 to 300 to account for the potentially increased minimum prices, to prevent the profile from selling items at a loss too quickly.

Changelog BilisClassicCata(v1.0.1):
• Moved some incorrectly grouped items (glyphs and cut gems) into their appropriate groups.
• Slightly adjusted the bilisexpecteddeposits and bilisitemvalue custom sources.

I've just updated my two profiles for WoW Classic-Era (Classic-Era, HC and SoD), available to all "TSM Profiles" tier patrons and above!

BilisClassic(v1.4) for regular classic-era and HC realms
BilisClassicSoD(v1.4) specifically for the use on SoD realms.

These new versions use a slightly less cautious maximum price when shopping/sniping stackable items, so you should find more things to buy and flip, while still being reasonably safe.
But more importantly, the updated profile for SoD makes it so that items that were relatively useless in content phase 1 that can be of use in content phase 2 will no longer be excluded from your shopping/sniping.


Changelog BilisClassic(v1.4):

• Slightly increased the maximum price of the sniper/shopping operations for stackable items. You should find more results when you shop for stackable items.

Changelog BilisClassicSoD(v1.4):

• Like in the regular Classic profile, I've slightly increased the maximum price of the sniper/shopping operations for stackable items. You should find more results when you shop for stackable items.

• Additional changes just for SoD: I've moved all items that were previously grouped inside of "Do Not Buy (SoD)" sub-groups, that will become usable/relevant with the Content Phase 2 back into their parent groups. This means level 26-40 items as well as items that can be used in recipes that require skill 180-225 will now be considered for your shopping and sniper scans (they were being excluded before).

Additional PSA:

It seems as though, at the time of this post, Blizzard is currently not providing updated AH snapshots for EU SoD realms, so your TSM AuctionDB pricing data and data from other tools and websites might be outdated / not updating.

Hopefully they will fix this soon.
