The Day-One Gold Plan
Five things worth knowing before the servers open on November 4 — where the new recipes went, which materials they keep asking for, and what not to waste gold on. Derived from the beta client, not from guesswork.

Number one, in full
Level the profession the new recipes actually went to
Leatherworking holds 245 of the 839 recipes that exist in the Forever client and not in Classic — 29% of them, more than any other profession. Its new recipes call for Pristine Leather more than anything else: 80 of them need it. That is a crafting-graph fact, not a price prediction — but it is where the new crafts are, and it is knowable now.
Leatherworking recipes After launch: Which of its recipes are worth the skill-ups, once the beta has been played and the materials have prices.
The other four
02Know the one material the new recipes keep asking for
Pristine Leather is consumed by 126 newly discovered Forever recipes — the most of any new item.
Pristine Leather After launch: Whether it's cheaper to farm or to buy, from day-one listings.
03Watch the Classic materials that just got new uses
Rune Thread already existed, and 93 of the new recipes now consume it — an old farm with a new reason.
All material usage After launch: Which of these the first week actually moved, rather than which ones could.
04Be holding reagents before December 9
Hyjal Summit and Barrow Deeps open on December 9. The consumable crafts that opening pulls on lean hardest on Dreamfoil.
What to stockpile After launch: A dated buy-window, once there are prices to compare a window against.
05Don't plan around Blueprints yet
Blizzard says boss-dropped Blueprints teach some Forever recipes, but which bosses drop which is not in client data and not published. ForeverEcon's Blueprint list is deliberately empty.
Why it's empty On November 3: The first confirmed drops seen in the beta — the part of this that can only come from playing.

One email, the day before launch: these five written out properly, with the numbers as they stand the night before the servers open.
Nothing on this page is a price, a margin or a claim that anything will be worth more — ForeverEcon has no market data until Forever opens. The findings are counts over the 874 recipes in the database, 839 of which exist in the Forever client and not in Classic. The plan is one person reading the client every day, and some of it will turn out to be wrong.
