10 Best World of Warcraft Gold Farming Strategies
Having played World of Warcraft for nearly 4 years, I have compiled a list of 10 best World of Warcraft gold farming strategies.
1. It’s been mentioned many times, but if you are just starting the WoW, your first character need to take on gathering professions. In my opinion, Mining and Herbalism are two of the most profitable at this time.
2. When leveling or grinding for gold, you should vendor all the ‘grey’ items (lol, duh!). You should post ALL the other items onto the Auction House.
3. We all know how well Dusts and Essences sell in the Auction House, instead of vendoring or auctioning the greens that you find, tip an Enchanter to disenchant them and sale the dusts and Essences.
4. Get addons: Auctioneer, Gatherer, Atlasloot, TitansPanel (or FuBar). This provides some very useful additional information that the default UI does not offer.
5. Become a supplier for “crafters” in top guilds in your Realm. These chumps go through mats like water, they are constantly in demand. Even selling them at a lower price will benefit you in the long run.
6. When Mining, keep in mind that Silver and Tin shares a spawning node; Gold and Iron shares another one; and the same applies for Truesilver and Mithril. For example, if you are only looking for Gold Ores, you MUST mine all the iron nodes as well because this will increase the overall Gold Node spawns.
7. If you are a more advanced player, jump on the new profession Inscription when Wrath of the Lich King comes out. I made the mistake of not choosing Jewelcrafting when Burning Crusade launched. It was too late when I realized how profitable a new profession is, especially in the beginning when there is very little competition.
8. Prior to a WoW Seasonal event, purchase or farm items that are needed during these events. During certain times of the years, prices of certain items skyrocket. This is an excellent time to reap in the profits.
9. Understanding the basic World of Warcraft economy. It revolves around the basic concept of supply and demand. There must be both for any gold to be made.
For example, in Realms where level 70 players dominates the majority of the population, the price of some lower level items may be very high, this is because higher level players need these items to level new professions or getting items for their Twinks.
10. Have fun with the game, World of Warcraft is a game after all, don’t get so stressed up sometimes because you did not farm enough gold, just stay consistent and find a way to farm gold that you enjoy.
I hope you picked up something new here, I use these very World of Warcraft gold farming strategies to farm hundreds of gold every day.
