We’re super excited to announce the launch of a brand new TradeSkillMaster website to elevate your gold making in The War Within and Classic World of Warcraft!

Along side a new website, rebuilt from the ground up – our TSM Premium offering has evolved in to multiple plans which are stuffed with brand new features and quality of life improvements to take your gold making even further.

If you’re an existing TSM Premium subscriber and are mostly interested in what happens to your current subscription, please check out this supplemantal support article that covers the possible scenarios, including keeping your existing subscription.

Let’s get started with what’s in store on the brand new TSM website.

The homepage now features a few important tools that will help you get an understanding of what’s going on with the Auction House – and what’s going on with your gold making activity, if you’re logged in.

You’ll first notice a heatmap of items and item categories that show trends in market value (red for declining trends, green for increasing trends) and volume of auctions (the bigger the square, the higher the volume) on your realm or your region – for the the version of the game you have selected on the homepage.

From here you can drill down in to a category, and then an item, to see current trends in price data at a glance. For example let’s look at Cooking Reagents.

Here we can see that cooking reagents are overall down in price trending when comparing the market value and historical value by -24.2%, then selecting the Reagents category the Cooking category shows individual items including Basically Beef trending down in price by -12.7% (perhaps oversupplied?) and Leyblood trending up by 505% (perhaps new demand?) – there’s also a tally of current volume of auctions for these item categories and individual items.

Let’s drill down further into Basically Beef as an item and check out the item page to see what’s going on in more detail.

At the top of the page we can see a summary of the item’s TSM Market Value, a confirmation of the current trend of the Market Value compared to the Historical Value, the current quantity on the Auction House – and if you’re logged in with TSM Premium (Platinum) an overview of your current inventory data across characters and the Auction House.

We also see an Auction House Quantity trend chart, showing volume of auctions for this item over time – coupled with your recent gold making actions pulled from your Ledger automatically, with TSM Premium (Platinum). In this example I might see I have a bunch of stock not listed and decide to log in and post them to the Auction House before the trend continues to fall, or realise I don’t have any stock on hand and decide to scoop any deals before the trend reverses.

Moving down the page, with a TSM Premium (Platinum) subscription, we see more visualisations representing the Region Sale Average and Region Sold Per Day values – information you’d usually only see in-game in the item tooltip. All of the tooltip information is also surfaced in the Item Statistics section to the right – including your personal Ledger and Accounting data for sales, purchases, sales, and sale rates. This data is available if you’re logged in with an active TSM Premium subsription.

The entire Auction House is your oyster now, giving new insights in market vs historical trends outside of the in-game addon for you to browse and research at any time. Time to start exploring!

Before moving away from the item page – you may have also noticed the ‘Alerts’ button at the top of the page. We’re very excited to introduce a more robust item notification system which includes realm, region, BMAH alerts via email and now also via Discord with a TSM Premium (Platinum) subscription!

It’s quick and easy to enable an alert from the item page, simply select the realm or region and your notification option, along with the price threshold and you’re all set. You must connect your Discord Account through OAuth in the TSM Account Management page in order to receive Discord notifications.

Ledger

The Ledger has had a coat of paint and now shows better charts and statistics based on your in-game gold making activity. The Ledger will continue to evolve over time as it is fully integrated in to the TSM website and new data flows are established from the in-game addon.

Groups

We’re also now making it easier than ever to view your in-game groups outside of the game via the Groups tab on the new TSM website. As a starting point, with TSM Premium (Gold) subscription, you can view the groups and the operations assigned to them separated by profile and also by account.

From here you can also opt to Publish your group to create an easy-to-share link with a friend or the TSM community – which will allow an easy import of the group and operation in one go in-game

Website Future

The new TSM website is a foundation for a lot of things we want to do in future, including more Auction House analysis tools, and more ways to understand your own gold making activity and to help you make more informed decisions on what you should or could do to improve your strategies.

We have a dedicated team working on it full time so we’ll be introducing new features and pushing out updates frequently now that it has been introduced to the world.

For the launch we have opened a new channel in Discord where you can share your feedback or ideas, and report any bugs you might encounter as you’re exploring and discovering our new website.

TSM Premium

With the launch of the new website, we are also revamping the TSM Premium offering with many more features described in the post above, and many more to come.
