Within the World of Warcraft, the players have plenty of ways to farm gold but many of them still feel like to try out the buying way, which is quite risky, needless to say. Rather than spending money for gold, I have spent a lot of my time learning and improving my gold farming skills in this game and I had quite a bit of success with it. In my first year, I managed to trade epic flyers for five characters.
If you are just starting out to make gold, the best way I can suggest is to gather items. Anything from mining, herbalism, skinning, fishing, cooking mats or cloth can all make you some good amount of gold!
Below are some tips for you to start making some gold.
1. Invest about half an hour a day in gathering mats. In the long run, that will accumulate to a big amount and you can sell those for many gold at the Auction House. As more and more people have moved to Northend, the supply of Northend mats is getting higher. However, you can get mats in Outland and even in Pre B.C. to avoid those competition.
2. Keep monitoring the Auction House and try to spot items with less competition before you go about to farm a target.
3. Target those items that are easy to get and easy to sell, and a good example is the deviate fish in the Barrens. They are not difficult to fish, but can sell for about 15 gold per stack. How many stacks do you think you can get in 30 minutes? 2 or possibly 3?
4. Frequent yourself in the auction house and get familiar with the average prices of the items that you intend to sell. If the price of a particular item drops in one day, don't panic. You should know that price fluctuation is only normal and it does not hurt to wait a few days until the price goes back to its average.
5. You may also visit sites like Thott or Wowhead to get an idea of how much an item usually sells in the Auction House. Doing this you can avoid underpricing your items. You may even be able to purchase an under-priced item and sell at a higher rate.
The tips contained in this article my seem basic and boring, but don't under-estimate their effectiveness. In case you are just starting out, avoiding shortcuts will only help you in the long run. Advanced techniques can be learned as you move on.
