I've just spent 20800g on mount so I'm a bit broke. I continue to do about 10-12 easy dallies, but I can spend that in 5 minutes on new enchants and gems. Not to mention I'm trying to put my pally in ret gear.

So after dallies, what's next? I imagine there are some really lucrative opportunities having a team of 4x geared ele shaman and a prot pally. Anyone tried some aoe farming or instances or something else?

violet hold is very easy
except that ethereal boss. freaking impossible.

anyway, just do all 25 dailies up in icecrown / sholazar basin. they make me 1500g a day and only take about 1:30 hours.

It's only a few hours but sometimes i have more time and would like a sustainable way to make money. Anyone have any cool ideas? Maybe a good place to farm the lower level clothes that sell for like 10g a stack?

Or - I had an idea. Regular instances, I can clear stuff like gun'drak in under 15 minutes, and get 8 WG marks as well (which you can now get 2000 honor for turning in 30). Could kill two birds with one stone. are there any other instances quicker than that or well suited for quick farming?

If you have any regular quests to do this is great for gold. If you are doing the argent tournament dailies you will get to a point where you are able to start getting the pets, they sell for a ton.

Could always go clear Molten Core. I'm not sure why but Lava Cores and Fiery Cores that drop off the trash always sell super quick on my server. Also you can get T1 BoE drops that can sometimes get youa a pretty penny. Then also the Sulfron Ingots sell for a ton too. It's only like once every 4 or 5 days though.

Run Karazhan, DE everything you find and enchant scrolls with Mongoose. They sell for about 300-350g per enchant on Draenor.
Run Molten Core - The BoE T1 epics, Fiery cores and lava cores sell for about 50g each on Draenor. Sufuron ingots sell for up to 1000g.

All you need to watch out for is Shroud of Darkness. If you stop all dps on him for those few seconds, it shouldn't be a problem. The healing debuff you get from it will kill you so try to avoid it! You can tank Zuramat next to one of those crystals that does dmg to all mobs in the room. Use it when you got the debuff that allows you to see Voids. Not sure if it can kill them otherwise.


I have made loads of gold just by purchasing borean leather from AH, making green items, disenchanting and selling mats. I make 50-100% profit for each stack of leather i buy, depending on current economy. Of course this may not work on all servers, AH prices can vary a lot.

You may not want to do the grind again from 70-80 again,but getting 3 teams up to 80 works a treat for Gold flow,I have 2 ,halfway to my 3rd.
Having more teams means you can streamline your Daily route and drop some of the more timeconsuming quests in favour of speed running.
Plus you will make plenty of gold getting from 75-80 and its a reliable,constant source of gold.
Hope this helps :)

Zuramat is a void boss, Xevozz (http://www.wowwiki.com/Xevozz) is an etereal ;). Xevozz and Ichoron the water guy are the two that give me a lot of trouble.


For gold, instances are always good. Bunch of large shards, an abyss crystal, and possible BoE blues are good. Gundrak is great because you get 7 shards, 1 abyss, and the BoE cloak that drops there sells for 150-200g on my server. If you can do the timed CoT:CoS mount run easily, you could drop one of your team and sell the spot for a few hundred gold. Also, once you're done getting all your heroic badge gear you can buy uncut scarlet rubies with 10 badges that sell for 70-80g (or frozen orbs, also 10 badges, but are generally cheaper than the red gems on my server.)

Tailoring cooldowns and JC daily are nice easy money. Dragon's eyes are around 75g each and the specialty cloth is around 60g each.

Xevozz isn't that bad if you have DoT's. Need to move a lot to avoid balls.
Ichoron is really easy boss if you use those crystals to kill adds.

Dps is dps is dps.

The Void and Ethereal bosses I just smas as hard as I possibly can. Void is a bugger of course. With Xevozz, I move the whole crew up on top of the bridge, right in the middle and pull him back to there. Nuke nuke as hard as I can. He usually drops before you get blown up. With Icheron. Use his mechanic to your advantage. Position yourself so his knockback will have you land near one of the activation crystals. Click it and reset. Also helps if you position your drones in a corner with their backs to a wall so the knockback is taken care of. Pew Pew.

I have the most problem with the freakin dragon in there....

(Edit...My crew as of right now, are only three weeks old @ 80..in crafteds and a couple of badge items. Thats it.)

And back to the OP...Instances are a good way to get cash. Make sure you have an enchanter though. Which was my initial mistake. Cloth, enchant mats....vendor trash. It adds up quickly. Questing is stupid good coin though, if you can put a few hours into it at a time.

Small notes about instances: they are only profitable if you don't wipe a lot like I do (I'm in 75+ blue crap gear and I wipe even in non H HOL... repairs add up fast)
