For me the amount of gold was not the question, rather the speed people were running heroics. I reckon I am just too cautious. I ran Gun last night using some of the shortcuts mentioned in this thread and it still took me 30 minutes via my timer addon. Considering each boss takes me about 1 miunte or less to down, the rest of the time was spent running or postioning guys for the pulls, 5 bosses = 5 minutes.
Still I suppose 5 badges in 30 minutes is not bad :P
7 if it was random :)
It gets quicker once you're more comfortable with your gear and the instance. I used to do 40 minute UK, 40 minute GD with Eck, 50 minute HoL, always 2 minutes shy of dragonkin boss in CoS. Right now I do 20 minute GD without Eck and only skip the trash between the 2nd and 3rd boss. UK still takes me 28 minutes, HoL is down to 30 minutes, and I always have 2 minutes extra in CoS now. All 15 of my 80s have the mount in their bags, some have even picked up a spare. :DQuote:

The 15 primordials will be nice, but if you arn't going to gear your characters anymore what's the real point of them? Other than pvp that is.Quote:

2.5k a day will go a long way towards new gear when that kicks off
My server they are down to 1500 each :( So 5 would only be worth 7500 or so... which if not doing weeklies comes out to 650ish gold per day. Still not bad at all though. But if i had 3 groups it would be more i suppose so it would be worth it.Quote:

I checked my titanpanel a few days ago and average 10k each on my 5 accounts and my guildbank has ballooned up to 89k, so I guess the real point of them is to assist me in gathering up 200k and hire an army to take over Stormwind. :D I stopped raiding a few months ago and have no desire to start it back up, so right now it all about collecting gold, mounts, and them cute mini-pets. I don't think I'm undergeared for any of the heroics, as all my characters are floating around 4.5k GS. I don't see how T10 or 264 off pieces will benefit me greatly in heroics. I will still stop to loot every mob and that's what's taking up most of the time.Quote:

If you want to do it faster it starts to become a gear question
I have a routine for all dungeons i rarely use short cuts except in gundrak after killing Eck but i dont leave trash cause as i said i like to collect the money n mats :)
PoS still takes about 1h to finish and i rarely go throu it without a whipe or 2-3 deaths :)
How exactly do you do that?Quote:
