Everybody knows about the so called "Ultimate" guides that are out there for getting gold in World of Warcraft. Pretty much everybody just wants that god forsaken Traveller's Mammoth. I mean sure the Son's of Hodir multi-passenger mount looks the same but can you repair with it? No. Can you buy reagents so you don't have to get off your fat ass to truck it to the nearest vendor? No. So with that said I am going to share with you my personal ways that I get gold quickly in the game. With these strategies you can get your 15,000 gold pieces in roughly 8 days. First lets compare the obvious choices for getting gold. You can do dailies, gather, or do Auction House. Every single damned guide that you will read on this subject will say that the Auction House is the best source of income via addon's like Auctioneer. This would be a viable way to get gold quickly if everyone and their mother didn't know about the extremely predictable ways this addon scans and undercuts in order to make some sort of income for the player selling the items. Doing daily quests is a good way to make around around 260 gold a day, but it will take you about 2~4 hours to complete this. I can make that much gathering in around half an hour easily. So basically the way to get 15,000 gold pieces in 8 days is to use a combination of the Auction House and gathering. If you get bored of gathering then do daily quests. If you are a constant raiding player then I would leave daily quests as a last resort to earn money because this is a good way to offset the decrease of gold caused by repair bills. If you are completely dependant on the Auction House game of buying low and selling high then you will be sadly disappointed because the biggest factor in this isn't smarts it is luck. I don't know about you but I like to have a dependable easy way of getting gold without staying on the computer for very long so I don't get the 5Th degree from anybody that I am converting into a vegetable. What is the best gathering skill you might ask? Well I don't think its a question of which is the best but which is the easiest. The easiest gathering skill to get money with is Mining. You will even make around 1,000 gold your first day trying to skill up this tradeskill. It took me roughly 10 hours to get max skill in mining. Just so you know I already had my epic flying mount so that definitely made the outland and northrend mining easier. Actually I wouldn't even consider this strategy until you get yourself a epic flying mount with cold weather flying. I know what your thinking,"But gee wiz you have to make a ton of money to get an epic flying mount with cold weather flying." You should have made close to enough money if you didn't blow it the whole time you was leveling your main character up. Besides this is 2009... your main character should have these by now and if not I'd reconsider uninstalling the game. Let me tell you a little secret about mining in Northrend. Everybody that does this type of gathering does millions of circles around Sholazar Basin. This would seem to be the easiest way to get money considering all you have to do is fly in circles for hours until you see a shiny mining node on the ground and then repeat the process over and over again. That would be true if there wasn't a million other people doing it and not to mention paladin's have faster mount speeds and will ninja every node that you can see in the distance. Get these addon's : Auctioneer Suite, Gatherer DB, Carbonite. When you are in-game upload the wowhead database into gatherer and turn on your mining node HUD. Now make your way toward the South-Eastern section of Icecrown, the part that is ontop of the actual glacier and closest to Dalaran. You will be making a rotation in the form of a giant upside down U. Be sure to snag the Titanium as soon as possible. You dont want to smelt any of the saronite ore that you find. Just fly around getting nodes until your playtime is about up or you just get bored. When you are done fly to Dalaran go to your nearest Auction House city. First thing to do is smelt all of the Titanium ore that you found, if you can try and make a Titansteel Bar. At the Auction House click the button on the far right that says Appraiser. Click on the item you wish to sell on the left and then click Refresh in the bottom right then click the Post button. You want to sell all the saronite ore, crystallized elemental items, Titanium, and Titansteel Bar's that you have on you. I promise you half an hours worth of getting nodes in Icecrown will net you around 200g if you are quasi-lucky. If you are unlucky it will net you about 150g every 30 min. If you get bored of doing this method then do dailies. Do all of the Son's of Hodir, Oracle (or the other), and Coliseum dailies that you can get your hands on. What ever you do: do NOT do the daily dungeon quests. Also if you want to make money don't do dungeon's period because it will in fact cause you to slowly lose money. I will write more in the next couple weeks so stay tuned!
