Gold making with the Transmorpher Beacon

You may have heard of the new ingame shop toy, called the Transmorpher Beacon. While it's the best toy ever just because of how cool it is, it's even useful to goblins who care little about that, but like to make gold instead!

Easiest Strange Dust yet - WoW Gold Guide

It's still Winter Veil a little longer. If you have enchanting on one of your toons, you have 7 more days to make super easy Strange Dust. No fighting required! You might want to hurry though. A hotfix is imminent, or so most players think.

Even enchanting skill of 1 is enough for this one.

Making Gold with Brilliant Necklaces - WoW Gold Guide

People usually focus on high end craftables, leaving little to no one creating (and selling) the low end goodies. Many of the jewelcrafting rings and amulets are an excellent example. For many months now the Brilliant Necklace has been a great source of gold on my main realms, creating  50-500% profit per necklace. This is especially good for low level toons!

Others focus on high level craftables, allowing you to make more gold with low level ones!

Best place for Glorious and Exalted transmog farming and the best Stranglekelp farming spot

There's 2 new wow gold tips today! First tip is Stranglekelp farming for mainly Death Knights and Druid herbalists, or anyone who has a ton of waterwalking potions. The second tip is too good to be posted here so it's in the elite section on the forum. It has made me over 15k gold after 60 minutes of farming. But with Stranglekelps selling for silly amounts currently here, it's not bad either!

Stranglekelp is one of the most valuable herbs and sells surprisingly fast!
Level 60 elites have the highest chance of dropping Exalted, Glorious and Vanguard sets.

Stranglekelp & Elite farming
To get the new forum going on, I've posted both of the tips there instead. No registration needed, unless you want to comment or post a gold tip of your own and become a Gold Guru!

Mining Guide | Low Level Gold Making | Copper Ore

Here's an another gold making trick for low level players. Copper Ore requires even less levels, but makes you even more gold in a day than the previously posted Silver Ore. All you need is a level 5 ish toon and a pickaxe!

One of the greatest low level gold making tricks!

Mining Guide | Low Level Gold Making | Silver Ore

Silver Ore is often the most expensive ore in the game, even though a Silver Vein requires only 65 skill before it can be mined. This makes it a great supply of gold for a low level player with the profession!

Alterac Mountains offer lots of Silver Veins.
Level required: 20+

Low Level WoW Gold Guide | Raptor Nests: Leaping Hatchling

Here we go! Takk's Nest is the last raptor nest there is, until MOP brings lots of new pets that are obtained in a similar manner. When you loot Takk's Nest, you obtain the Leaping Hatchling pet, which should give you some quick gold! There's more raptor pets in the world still, but rest of them require a bit of farming. Nevertheless, I will go through those aswell at some point!

Even a level 10 player can get rich with this method!

Herbalism Guide | Best places to farm Stranglekelp

Stranglekelp has always been one of the more expensive herbs due to the "hard" access to them. They spawn underwater almost always, so that means lots of swimming! However, if you are a veteran herbalist, you have a druid already. Aquatic form makes underwater farming a lot more easier. Even the other flowers can be picked up a lot faster if you don't have to "dismount" every few seconds!

Low Level Gold Making | Easy Gold for the aspiring Blood Elf

Many think Ghostlands has nothing to offer when compared to other zones. I too think so when you take it's objects into account, such as treasure chests. Other zones have treasures that even award experience when interacted with and offers slightly better loot aswell.

Low Level WoW Gold Guide | Limited Supply Items in Eastern Kingdoms

Here's the long awaited Eastern Kingdoms trade supply run for some massive, yet easy gold! The Kalimdor Gold Making Trick was getting lonely! Also, this run is for horde only. Although some vendors are neutral.

Limited Supply Run in Eastern Kingdoms

** Horde edition **

The goal is to visit the following npcs and buy items that seem valuable, notably trade goods and profession recipes. Note that limited supply means it's not certain that a vendor has the items available when you visit them.

After that, visit the Auction House and list the items for sale. This time for little more, let's say 50-550g each. Some recipes sell for less than 10g though because they are so easily obtainable. Click on a name to see the locations!

It's recommended that you do this with a goblin so you get the exalted discount with all factions, even if you're not exalted!

Don't forget that Undercity was included in a previous post (Making Gold in Undercity), so it won't be included this time.

The zones are in no particular order, but for the fastest route it's recommended to start either from Silvermoon City or Stranglethorn Vale.

Trade goods like coal, spices and parchments can also be sold for a lot of profit, but I won't include those either.

Low Level WoW Gold Guide | Essence of Undeath

Here's an another classic Essence that might be a gold mine on some realms. It's still needed by many professions and the only way to obtain them is to kill level 38-60 undead creatures. That means there won't be a lot of them available and the price is often very high! (At least after some relisting!)

Herbalism Gold Making | Best places to farm Goldthorn

Goldthorn is one of the rarest and most expensive herbs currently. For a long time their invidual price has been about 8-10g on my realm. I've sold hundreds of stacks since wotlk for about 200g each. Though I usually sell them in smaller stacks to make them sell faster, as some people require only a few of them and not 20.

Best fast place to farm Deviate Fish - WoW Gold Guide

Some fishes are extremely valuable, especially the lower level ones that are needed by cooks and alchemists. Today's post focuses on the best of them, Deviate Fish. This one is mainly for horde lowbies. Alliance can make even more gold though, but a higher level toon is recommended.

Tested and approved by a poor, almost naked level 20 toon that went fishing for 1½ hours, and eventually sold the catch for 2490 gold, 30 silver and 73 coppers! Also known as too much gold, unless you like saving or investing.

How to make gold for your epic mounts in minutes - WoW Gold Guide

Surprisingly many players have trouble getting gold for their mount, epic mount, flying mount or epic flying mount. Hopefully this post will be of use if you're one of them! :)

Making tons of gold as a level 33+ - How to Make Gold

With the high Silk Cloth prices still running around, I think some cloth farming methods deserve their own post. Silk Cloth is one of the few cloths that have been bouncing between 30-200g for a few months now, at least on bigger realms.

Farming Clams | Thousands of Gold from Pearls!

Golden Pearls and Black Pearls have been a gold maker since vanilla, a lot less during TBC and early Wrath due to everyone farming Naga, but these days they seem to sell for 100-300g most of the time, even though their main use is gone now. These are mainly obtained from clams, but with a low drop rate.

10k exp and 30-100g every 7 minutes AFK - WoW Gold Guide

While on my way to Blackrock Depths to buy a vendor sold limited supply recipe, I bumped into a level 50 rare monster called The Behemoth in the Grinding Quarry, just outside the instance portal. Nothing special there, but when I was on my way out after a few minutes, it had respawned again!

100g in 60 seconds! - WoW Gold Guide

I normally don't list minor gold making methods, but I think this deserves a mention because it requires almost no time at all to perform so it can be combined with other gold making tactics.

Making gold selling enchant weapon glows - WoW Gold Guide

There's some low level weapon enchants that are very cheap to make, yet give a nice chunk of gold when sold as a scroll, especially for low level players.

Usually you can find the Formula: Enchant Weapon - Minor (or lesser) Beastslayer for sale for as little as 2g. You then can resell it for even 150g as a formula, or you can learn it yourself and make some scrolls. I've sold Minor Beastslayer scrolls for about 50-100g and Lessers for 100-200g, while they cost about 4-7g to make usually. They sell relatively fast because they offer a nice, unique red glow and bank chars/RPrs often don't get to choose which enchants to pick because there's never any low level weapon enchant scrolls for sale, at least on the realms I play on, except maybe Fiery Weapons.

Making gold in the Neutral Auction House - WoW Gold Guide

Cold's Gold Blogging Carnival
This post is written as part of Cold's Gold Blogging Carnival for April 2011

Neutral auction house is a gold mine, especially for low level players if you sell the right items there. I will now let you know how I turned 0 copper into thousands of gold on my fresh level 1 toon after a deadly trip to Booty Bay. All I had to do was invest some gold that I obtained from selling copper first.
