world of warcraft gold making Guides
Basics
I'll start of with the basics.
You'll want to get Skinning and Mining as your main professions. I would have stated
fishing before they nerfed it, and it's still semi-viable...But not anywhere near as
good as it used to be.
Skinning
Skinning, the only way to powerlevel is just killing mobs and skinning them. I picked
it up from the beginning, so I can't say how long this will take.
Sell your stuff on the AH. It will sell. Set a buyout. If there is still time to go before
prime-time on the server ends, set the listing time to long. If it's almost over, go
ahead and splurge on Very Long.
Mining
Mining. THIS is a world of warcraft gold maker, and I'm sure some people are going
to bitch about me revealing one of the very good mithril spots, but here we go:
I took this up at 30, and spent around 6 hours powerleveling it up to 230. As per
usual, sell the stuff on the AH in smelted stacks. BUYOUT is your friend. It is the
BEST thing you can do.
For getting through the copper levels, Durotar is your friend. Sorry about this for you
alliance guys, but for copper and tin, you're out of luck for my advice.
The stuff is everywhere. I did a sort of lazy figure eight around the canyon right
before Ogrimmar. Took me about 45 minutes to get up to tin level.
Tin is a bitch. The Barrens had the easiest route to go on, but it took a long time
compaired to the other levels. Near Ashenvale there is a place with some harpies
that has a fairly good tin spawn rate. From there, stick to that wall, and go south.
There are spawns along that, but your goal is South Barrens. Go in circles around the
Scorpid and Bristleback and Razormane areas. After a while of this, you should
eventually get up to what's need.
Note: When selling on the AH, it isn't always the best idea to just smelt copper and
tin into bronze, or visa versa. Check the going prices, and figure out if selling the
bases or the product will sell for more. I've seen Tin going for 70s a stack and copper
for 40s, while bronze was only going for 50s a stack. You lose 10s when you sell
Bronze.
Iron is easy, but a bit time consuming. The easiest route to just go around over and
over again in is in the Shimmering Flats area of 1000 Needles. A little dangerous for
alliance people, but it's still a nice round circuit. Go around the edges, and there are
spawns. It also spawns veins in the middle of the little lake south of the racetrack.
Mithril is your world of warcraft gold maker. Engineering and Blacksmithing both
need massive quantities of the stuff, and it sells fast, and for a fairly high price. One
word: Tanaris. You could travel around the whole thing, but I've found it much easier
to start at Gadgetzan, and cut across the desert to the start of the bug area,
checking all of the little rock outcroppings on the way.
This place is dangerous, and I even die some at 45+, but there are alot of spawns
here. Travel along the edge, and then back along the outter boundry of it, and then
continue on circling the map. There are alot of spawns in here, and their value shows
in the defense the mobs put up. I'm not going to lie to you, it'll be hard to live
consistantly here without a mount or travel form. Thistleshrub valley also has a few,
and then another bug area on the edge of Un'Goro crater. There are also one or two
by Zul'Farrak and the area close to Gadgetzan. They don't spawn as often as the
others do, though.
As for Thorium... You'll see some in Tanaris, one spawn in Thistleshrub, and another
by the level 54-61 elite dragons at the Caverns of Time... But if you want to find
reliable spawns, you'll have to ask someone else. I don't know of any that aren't
impossible to get to until 50+.
Grinding
Item Drops
Now, those are just tradeskills, but there are some good mobs that drop quality loot
as well.
Of course, there are humanoids. They're also some of the best grinding. They drop
money, and probably have the highest chance of good world drops as well.
However, in the 30 range, there are some very good things to do:
In Stranglethorn Vale, at Lake Nefwhatever, there are the Goblin Meteorologists.
They drop broken electrolanters, which vendor for about 15s each. It's about a 1/10
drop, but they are humanoids, so have good world drops anyway. They're level 34-
36 or so, but are casters, so have low HP and low def, though they do do more
damage than regular mobs in burst amounts.
Another favorite of mine is the Elder Mistvale Gorrilas. They don't have high def or
HP, and are right next to BB. It is a bit of an opening to ganking, but they drop their
whiskers or whatever often. I don't remember the name, but it's something like that.
They stacks up to 10, and the stacks go for 66s or so to vendors. They also drop
fangs, and have a nice selection of world drops. You can skin them consistantly for
heavy and thick leather as well.
After that, there are some more goblins in the area by the Crystal mine or whatever,
and they're about the same level range as the gorillas, but whenever I go there, I
get adds from hell, so you'll probably want to be a level or two higher than you
