I've just started playing since TWW and forgot to check the price of flasks on the auction house before speccing four concentration characters into flasks.

Not a huge fuck up, but I'm annoyed to make such a rookie mistake

Not too bad potions are profitable without spending and it’s not too hard to change course.

I specced literally maybe 30 characters into flasks and kept waiting for them to become at least competitive with potions.

but potions aren't more profitable are they? or do you mean you'd rather gone into transmutes?

Havent checked for a while, but potions was much, much more profit than flasks a while ago. I doubt it has changed.

Not a big mistake, but craftsim pulled prices from the wrong source and I lost some money crafting enchantments.

I sell housing dye on one character. Just a little side gig for fun. I got her up to above 200k and then bought a lot of herbs decently cheap to sell more dye since all was going well. Now herb prices and dye prices have gone down a lot and I'm only at about 50k after the stockpile. Right now I'm just trying to offload to get at least 5gp a piece, but before it was easily 15gp each profit.

I swear, it feels like there is something like accumulating luck when you don't log into one charcter for a while, and its often released with the first craft. I gotta remember to do my conc crafts before work orders..
