Multiboxing Gold Tips (Not Dailies)

[heyaz]

not if professions from your other slaves cover it, i havent bought one gem or mats for any enchant, Im lucky enough to get some crusader orbs from guild bank if i need them, but they're cheap anyway(600g a piece).
Also from my prof my daily inc is about ~3k ish(7-9x200g, 5x100g, 5x 400g every 4 days), for few months it was that plus +/- 4k from dailies(2 teams).
I also run few ToC and disenchant stuff from there, thats 5 abyss for 10-12 mins of work(40-45g a piece).
A dedicated boxer can make around 10k a day easy, and keep that up for months(it gets boring after few months)

Wait, so epic gems and enchanting mats spawn from nothing if you have professions? And crusader orbs appear in your bank? You missed my point - which was that I disagree that once you have epic flyers and crafted gear you no longer need currency. And by currency I mean anything- gold, time, mats you transwhatever from a profession cooldown, or crusader orbs you found for free.

Gems I could see costing alot. But If you are running a 5 box team with out a enchanter to de all the crap you come across you should make one. I haven't been boxing as long as I was in BC but my enchanter still has a bunch of high level bc enchanting mats. Running ToC is a really fast way to rack up alot of upgrades if you are just starting out and a lot of abysses crystals.

You run out of crap to disenchant when you mostly pvp

Another money maker I have found is just running 80 instances for badges and doing daily BGs/WG for honour. Converting these excess badges and honour into epic gems, cutting them and AHing them keeps me going without having to dailies etc. A run of 5 WG quests with a win gives close to 20k honour for 5 toons which equates to 10 epic gems. I normally grab rubies and cut them, put them on AH for 180-200g.

For intance runs I find the 5 boss instances the best, which I can now do in 30-35minutes, netting 5x5=25 badges or another 2.5 combination gems which I again cut and AH for 180-200g. These gems in raw form tend to go for a lot less on AH, but if you cut them well, they can sell for as much as the pure colour gems. This cash comes on top of the DE gear etc, BoEs that drop throughout the run of course.

This may not be as fast money as a set of dailies, but you can do it for a good portion of the day without getting as bored and it is generally repeatable. If I do it on the weekends I can make an extra 20% on my gems also.

On a side note I agree, you can never have too much gold. When all 5(10) of your toons have full craftable ToC gear, epic flyers, vendor mounts, Dal rings etc. then maybe you won't need much and your existing capital is enough to generate an income to sustain consumables, Even at this stage however, you can buy the ToC BoE recipes for all of your professions and blow another 50k. I am nowhere near achieving this currently and I think by the time I do, there will be a whole new batch of gold sinks available.

I have an alt addiction. I have made a few noob teams.. keep them in BoA gear and best blues/greens i can find ( even though they out level them in a few days ) I never have enough money hehe! And i make tons of it.

I'm usually too lazy but I always seem to have stuff to sell at the AH. I'm not much of a speculator and I just sell stuff through auctioneer recommended price most of the time not even looking.
Yesterday, I sold two stacks of TANGY CLAM MEAT at 174 gold each.... Good for me I don't watch posted prices as I'd have surely changed it.
I don't know what kind of magic worked here, there's maybe some legendary item being crafted with clams, and from now on I'll only speak in the presence of my lawyer xD.

I don't do dailies. Except the JC one, which is 100g for 5 minutes "work".

My money is made through the oft-used route of buying items on the AH, disenchanting them and selling the resultant materials, and from instances.

Heroics are just for the badges for me now, so I DE absolutely everything that drops.

I don't make anywhere near as much as I would from grinding out dailies, but I bank about 5k profit per week that way, and that's after all my out-of-pocket expenses including gems, etc, for any new gear I pick up.

That's good enough for me to have a healthy bank balance.

If I get especially bored at weekends then I bang out a few regular quests. There are plenty around that I haven't done (two whole Northrend zones are still completely untouched in fact!) and that really is amazingly easy cash.

Oh, and I do a "fun run" to MC and ZG every week too. The MC materials in particular are a real cash cow.

Pretty much, other than rubies gem cost me under 25g, rubies are 60, that includes gem+eternal for transmute. Enchanting mats are all provided by ToC and random daily heroic.
I can get free orbs from my guild, but the one whole piece that i got made from them i paid for. I didnt miss your point in past few weeks I havent spend more than 200 a day on my whole team(and they have all best enchants and all epic gems), I dont even buy water since I have a mage outside my main team to do that.

Personally, I never farm anything or do any dailies...i'm fully funded by my teams tradeskill cooldowns. I buy all source mats from the AH, use my cooldowns, and resell stuff. We are talking 10-20 minutes a day worth of work for thousands of free gold a day. Basically you can count alchemy as giving you a button to push to simply generate 100-400g a day (epic gem xmute) depending on your luck with procs, and jewelcrafting as giving you a daily quest worth 200g (sell dragon's eyes). The best investment you will ever make is skilling up alchemy on any and all alts whom you never plan to have professions with, it will pay for itself in a weeks time!

When I powerlevel lowbies in SM and such, selling all the low level mats is a small fortune every time.
(although I make ~650g per day in ~25 minutes with dailies, usually more than I spend)

Which daily's are you doing to manage that?

I decided since i was running chars thru bc instances to get them 70 hey d/e all the stuff u get. I think i came out with 200+ large prismatics and about 20-30 stacks of arcane dust which imo sells for alot no matter what server. When i decided to turn them all in i made around 5k gold ontop of other loot and coin loot. I mean yea sounds tedious but hey in getting my druids to 70 mage to 62 and priest so far to 63 ive made around 10-15k gold plus i have enough runecloth and netherweave to lvl my mages tailoring without thinking about do i need more cloth.
