Hope you enjoyed the video! Please leave a comment once you are done reading.

Also make sure to check out Kevmar’s blog My Auction House Banker.

Again please remember that you do NOT want to use the versions of these addons found on Curse or anything like that. So that means do not update them either using the Curse Updater or WoW Minion or anything – leave them as they are!

Here are the commands used:

Bringing up the KTQ help
/ktq

The macro
/ktq queue 5 Glyphs

The 5 can be changed to whatever number you like, and you can change Glyphs to any name you like.

As mentioned in the video, Kevmar has set up some predefined groups. These are Glyphs, RareGems and EpicGems. As you may have guessed using this as the name will craft all the Glyphs, Rare Gems or Epic Gems we can create.

You can also chain together multiple queues in a single macro, just add a new line below with the details, so this would craft 5 of every type of both Epic and Rare gems.
/ktq queue 5 RareGems
/ktq queue 5 EpicGems

There are some minor corrections however:

First of all, to make use of the BonusQueue, SkipSingles, Threshold or Fallback you have to first enable them – which I didn’t mention in the video. Here’s the code for each;

/ktq enable bonusqueue
/ktq enable skipsingles
/ktq enable threshold
/ktq enable fallback

Next, I said that the threshold used the Auctioneer appraisal price, so was fairly useless. Kevmar explained to me however that it actually uses the latest Auctioneer scan data, and if the current lowest selling auction for each glyph is below your threshold – it won’t queue it.

For example let’s say you just scanned the AH and your threshold is 3g, it checks all of the current glyphs on the AH and if there any glyphs where the lowest sale price is under 3g then it won’t add it to the queue.

Finally I didn’t mention the use of the fallback. What this does is if you have a threshold set, and yet there is none of the item in your latest AH scan, it will queue the item.

If fallback is turned off any glyphs that are not currently for sale on the AH will not be queued – this is good if you don’t want to run the risk of creating glyphs that sell for under your threshold.

But it also means it will not queue glyphs even if they might normally sell for over the threshold, which is a loss in sales. By turning it on this means if there are no glyphs of a certain type on the AH, it will queue the glyph anyway.

These settings are apply to everything you craft using KTQ, so be careful if you use it for more than just glyphs however.

A bit long winded maybe, but all fairly simple.

Again thank you Kevmar for such a great addon! Please leave comments in the blog letting me know if you liked this video.
