Does this make Blacksmiths torturers then? I don't think the courts are going to look kindly upon this....

Comentario de 223371

You can already see these being expensive the first weeks into the expansion, so as a suggestion, start switching into transmutation spec and let all that money flow into your capitals.

Now we wait for the T-1000 recipe...

Comentario de pthor1234

As of 5.0.3 beta patch, there are 2 ways to make Living Steel now:

- 1 day CD + 6 Trillium bars.
- 3 Trillium bars and 3 Spirit of Harmony and ignores the day CD - Enigma del acero (Thanks Aliok)

This change is similar to tailoring and inscription for Imperial Silk and Darkmoon cards, respectively.

Edit - Do note, that in addition to being used for the usual crafting type mats, this will be required (and the only required material) for Hebilla de acero vivo (Hebilla de acero vivo). This is a significant departure from WotLK and Cataclysm belt buckles, which only required raw materials, and no transmutes. This will possibly help keep the value of Living Steel healthy well into the expansion.

Comentario de Superchief

Looks to me like it's a bad idea to have multiple transmute alchemists in MoP when you can save resources doing Riddle of Steel instead with only ONE alchemist regardless of his mastery. It would be a perfect niche just like Truegold is in Cataclysm if only the transmute was available but now Riddle of Steel means we can just buy cheap botter-gathered materials from the AH and make as much Living Steel as we need. There won't be a competitive market for Living Steel with this Riddle of Steel option available, at least not after the first couple weeks.

Best bet in my opinion is make those alts learn a profession with a valuable cooldown.

Comentario de kromtar

The riddle of steel option requires BoP mats that are a rare drop so there will be no buying of mats from botters for the transmute with no cooldown. Value should stay high enough on these for a little while, at least until enough people complain and they end up making the spirits BoE in 5.1 or something.

Comentario de 223371

Living steel is now the requierement for the ''Transmutation Master'' quest. You need 4 units of it.

If you are reading this now, in 5.0.4, you need to wait till MOP releases in order to be able to do it.

Comentario de mredig

In raw materials, this will take (for the non living spirit ones)

12x Mena de trillium negro
12x Mena de trillium blanco

Hopefully you have access to a miner!

Comentario de PriestessAur

For alchemists wanting to transmute for your daily cooldown, you will need to:

Start with 120 Mena de hierro fantasma (6 stacks)
Smelt (with a miner) Barra de hierro fantasma x 60
Transmutar: barra de trillium x 6
and finally, Transmutar: acero vivo

.
To create a Living Steel without a cooldown, you will need to:

Start with 60 Mena de hierro fantasma (3 stacks) and 3 Espíritu de armonía
Smelt (with a miner) Barra de hierro fantasma x 30
Transmutar: barra de trillium x 3
and finally, Enigma del acero

Comentario de DisRuptive1

Living Steel<--6 Trillium Bars<--60 Ghost Iron Bars<--120 Ghost Iron Ore
Living Steel<--6 Trillium Bars<--24 Trillium Ore

I needed a ton of Living Steel. Since the only way to make it involved Trillium Bars and an alchemist, I had to find a way to get as many Trillium Bars as possible (and an alchemist who would sell me their daily transmute cooldowns). There are two ways to obtain Trillium Bars, transmuting Ghost Iron Bars, or smelting Trillium Ore. Both of those methods happen to require you farm lots of Ghost Iron Ore in the most efficient way possible. I'll explain how.

In order to get Trillium Ore nodes to spawn, you have to give them some place to spawn. Trillium nodes share nodes with Ghost Iron (in specific zones). If the Ghost Iron spawned in the node, none of the other spots within that node will spawn Trillium. You have to mine the Ghost Iron ore and hope Trillium respawns.

To do this in the most effective way possible, you want to mine out the node, go do something else (such as more mining) while waiting for the node to respawn and then come back to the node after it has respawned. Hopefully it will be Trillium. If not, you start over, mining out the Ghost Iron, going to do other stuff, and then coming back to the node.

Based on my ore counts, I'd estimate Trillium nodes spawning 6% of the time or 1 in 16 nodes. Plenty of people will probably recommend routes that take you all across a zone to find these few Trillium Ore nodes. However, these routes aren't efficient. If you intend to farm up Trillium Ore, you need to mine the fewest nodes possible the maximum times per hour. What I'm saying is instead of mining 100 different nodes twice per hour, mine 10 different nodes 20 times per hour. Every node respawn is a chance at getting Trillium Ore to spawn. Assuming every node in your route started out as Ghost Iron, 19 respawns at 10 sites is 190 chances at getting Trillium ore to respawn. Going all around the zone mining everything in sight gives you only 100 chances at getting a Trillium respawn.

This is my route

My route brings in roughly 9 Ghost Iron Ore per minute or 27 stacks per hour. This is approximately 4 and a half bars of Living Steel in materials per hour. Any Trillium deposits you find will only increase your yield.

My route starts in the Tu Shen Burial Ground. There are hostile mobs in the area, but most of them won't bother you and will be busy fighting friendly NPCs. Because of these hostile mobs, a lot of people don't farm here. They see and hear the clashing of swords of the hostile mobs and skip the area. After you've mined out all of the nodes in the area, you have about 30 seconds before the nodes start respawning again. Quickly head up to the Five Sisters, mine up any unprotected nodes and then head back to where you started and start all over again.

Comentario de Smeller

My only complain about Living Steel is that you need ridiculous amounts of it to craft crappy epics. If they would halve the Living Steel requirements for these ilvl 476 items or scale it up to ilvl 489, it should be good again.

Comentario de 771432

is ANYONE going to tell where you get the friggen recipe from? wow wait to post 100 of the same comments to waste everyones time.

Comentario de TGFseb15

Expect the demand to rise by a lot once your realm has unlocked stage 4 of Isle of Thunder.

Comentario de jjwilljr

As already posted, the recipe is discovered while creating other alchemy items.

Comentario de Swarovsky

I know that it's useless to complain, but anyway - WHY reagent for Blacksmithing and Engineering is crafted by Alchemists? Tailoring and Leatherworking don't need any other profession to make reagents. I understand, that Alchemy also should have something useful for other players, but why just for unlucky ones?
Why don't we get this beautiful STEEL by SMELTING it? /cry

*yes, I don't have alchemy on any of my characters so that's why I am here.

Comentario de Saucery

anyone else have 7+ transmuters making these everyday? lol

Comentario de no1reflux

Someone create a tab for a recipe. "Ore" how to craft the item. A solid link with crafterstome site but up to date.
I am to old to remember all this stuff. It has been a long time since I was a level one naked vanilla warrior. Arg.. Arrgg ARRGGG. me pirate laugh to me mates...

A clone of many.

Comentario de Volleynova

Get Alchemy out of my engineering. Now.

Comentario de RodneyG007

Where can i find recipe when is WOD 6.0.3. ?

Comentario de Elysoun

Any bets on when they will remove the cool down for this?

I just made a ton of Truegold (from Cata) for a friend for transmog purposes. I'd like to make some pets and mounts for friends, but have an idea that either they:
- won't remove the cool down until the final patch of this expansion (some something for people to do while we wait), or
- they won't remove the cool down because of the mount and pets.

I think the first is more in keeping with history on this, but wouldn't be surprised if they cool down stayed for years to come.

Thoughts?

Comentario de kristyldragon

Since it wasn't very clear on how to learn this recipe, thought I would share that the easiest way to get this Transmute is to make a bunch of Rejuvenecimiento de alquimista or Poción de sanación maestra which are learned from any Alchemy trainer. They are the cheapest of the MoP potions that can give you new MoP recipes.

A half stack (100) of the Hoja de té verde off auction house if you dont have any tea leaf banked up usually isn't too expensive. I got all the MoP level transmutes and recipes in about 75 crafts worth.

how do you even get this transmutation i really dont know

Comentario de vikn

Drastic price surges

For future reference: As I'm writing this we're just over three months into Legion.

Some background
As many already new expansions brings price changes to some older trade goods. Generally the goods of the previous expansion. Roughly speaking, either a previous useful trade goods becomes trash or a trade goods highly farmed becomes scarce and gains an increase in value.

The long term effect of inflation also brings price changes to trade goods.

Main point
Interestingly enough, as I looked over the prices of a number of useful MoP trade goods (two expansions back). I noticed a drastic surge in price coinciding with the Legion release date (September 1th 2016).

Goods as:
Mena de trillium blanco Mena de trillium negro Barra de trillium Mena de hierro fantasma Barra de hierro fantasma Mota de armonía Espíritu de armonía Acero vivo
All skyrocketed, prices increasing with numbers around 50-150 % across all servers I viewed.

Similar price increases can be seen on some trade goods from other expansions. Though the pattern isn't as clear.

Three additional notes on the subject:

1. This can in no way be explained by inflation as it has not effected other types of items in any similar way.

2. With the release of Legion, wow saw a surge in returning players.

3. The time between the last patch of WoD (6.2) released 2015-06-23 and the launch of the next expansion Legion released 2016-09-01 was exceptionally long. This even caused some backlash due to players complained on the lack of new content.

Speculation

Why? My assumption would be that the drastic overnight changes was largely brought on due to the lack of content in WoD forcing people out into the older zones. Creating a strong supply of such materials. Thus keeping prices down for an extended period of time. And with the burst of content brought by Legion people quickly left the old zones causing supply to fall drastically.

Perhaps the large number of returning players and the implementation of the wardrobe function led to an increased demand for such trade gods. Which down the line often is crafted into transmog or mounts.

Future meaning If this becomes a reoccurring pattern it would be theoretically be possible to double or even triple your gold in just weeks or months by investing in the correct trade goods before the launch of a new expansion.

Your experiences Me personally haven't seen such a clear pattern between a release date and skyrocketing prices (on items unaffected by the release) before. Have you noticed similar occurrences during previous expansions? What do you think is the probable driving force behind it? Can it be mimicked for your gain during future expansions?

Comentario de Grammie

so those who can mine the materials - and the engineers that need material to make things - can NOT create this living steel? am I the only one who sees an issue here? I don't get it

Comentario de gunsotsu

bars needed to make all xmog gear, pets and mounts just for personal use 360+
time taken to make sky golem just for personal use 1 month

in pathc 8.0.1 a hot fix was snuck in, which became active early yesterday morning. LIVING STEEL NOW SHARES COOL DOWN WITH OTHER DAILY TRANSMUTES.

YA. NO THANKS.
account cancelled.

Comentario de pat33

DON'T FORGET TO STUDY: Maestro de transmutación with SW/ORG Alchemy trainers to enable a chance for more transmutes on each daily!

Comentario de EleriaSam

I cant believe no one has mentioned the farm at Half Hill in Pandaria. I needed Living Steel and didn't feel like flying around mining so I went back to my farm on all 12 toons. You can grow Ghost Iron ore and Trillium. If you need Spirit of Harmony for Riddle of Steel you can grow those too. The Best part is theres no flying around looking for nodes. Plant one day harvest the next! All the mats you'll ever need for your Sky Golem. Of course it only really works if you have multiple toons with farms but most people do.

Comentario de Turanga93

Hello, just a little number here:
33x Espíritu de armonía + 33x Barra de trillium + Transmutation master = 38x Acero vivo
(Honestly I expected more)

The Answer to: How do you {learn to} make living steel?

The answer was provided in reply to a question that never got upvoted years ago on this page. The answer was exactly what I was looking everywhere for, so I am copy pasting the posted answer from SoCalWoWgal here for (hopefully) better visibility for others:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SoCalWoWGal on 2015/10/16 (Patch 6.2.2)

You randomly "discover" it (living steel) by creating MoP level Alchemy recipes. For more information, see Transmute: Living Steel and Transmute: Trillium Bar.

Comentario de Viserate

If you are looking to craft these to make good money, think again. After the AH merge the price dropped about 65% so for the time it takes to make a stack of these bars, you can make more gold just doing quests. These use to be good money makers.
