    Every week, WoW Insider brings you Gold Capped, in which Fox Van Allen and Basil "Euripides" Berntsen aim to show you how to make money on the auction house. Feed Fox's ego by emailing him or tweeting him at @foxvanallen. We're eight months deep into the current expansion, and still, Chaos Orbs remain bind on pickup items available only by running dailies. You can't buy them with valor points. You can't buy them on the auction house. You can't hand them from one player to another. That creates a challenge for someone who's using a trade skill to make an epic piece of gear for someone else. There's no quick and simple way to find the value of a Chaos Orb, but for sure, they do have a definite value. And to get the most money out of your profession, you need to know exactly what that value is.

    The Blizzard developers have posted their answers to the latest round of the Ask A Dev series, this time focusing on professions. Some of the major highlights: Blizzard wants to add more "fun themed" items in enchanting, like magic lanterns. Blizzard will "give it a shot" at adding unique icons if you're tracking more than one harvestable item in the minimap. Book of Glyph Mastery will no longer be required -- discovery spells will let you discover every possible glyph! Chaos Orbs will become unbound in a future patch. Archaeology dailies are being added in a future patch. After the break, the full answers to Ask A Dev #7: Professions.

    Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today. Patch 4.0.6 has been out for an entire day now. Are we enjoying ourselves, readers? What's your favorite change from the patch? Personally, I'm a fan of being able to see exactly how close I am to reputation-capping with my guild from week to week at a glance. While you talk amongst yourselves, I'm going to dig into today's Q&A. Thyen asked: I know that the Alchemist Stones are now unique-equipped. Does that mean I can only have one of them equipped (only one of any variety), or can I equip two, if one is Vibrant and the other being Lifebound?
