What can honestly beat a herbalism/miner in wintergrasp for G/Hr?

i dunno. grinding resource nodes just seems stupid as a multiboxer. any solo player can do it just as effectively, but they can't do multiple daily quests at the same time or pop multiple transmute cooldowns, which is what we specialize in.

you go enjoy your retarded resource grind fighting bots and other mindless resource node grinders for 6 hours a day, just to equal what I make in an hour while you keep telling me that transmutes and 15 characters worth of easy dailies doesn't count and that you win WoW.

if i don't even feel like playing WoW for a day i can log in and make thousands within a few minutes and log back out. resource grinding is for tards. it will seriously make your brain melt.

transmute cd is 20h

I wasn't talking about x-mutes. I was talking about the tailoring cloth you are making which you took into consideration for your calculation of your 10k made.

I need money to fund professions for what... 20+ characters for transmutes and such. This is a comparison of gold/hour and nothing more. If you have the characters to go and make all your gems and cloth weekly or 10+ 80s then more power to ya, but i've yet to finish a second group and have only been boxing again for what... a month? So to expect me to have 20+ 65 characters in that time and all professions leveled to the point where i can abuse the system of multi-boxing in order to amass wealth at a basically passive rate is just a ridiculous thing to even think is possible

You only make money if it sells. Farming up "55 frost lotus, 80 stacks of herbs (lichbloom, icethorn), 34 eternal life" is not the same as making a couple of gems, that's a lot more product to move against other people also farming the same things. And that gold per hour drops drastically once you start flooding the market against professional farmers, who will be more than happy to get into undercutting wars with you. And the more you do it, the faster the market becomes over-saturated and sales drop to a trickle because people just don't need any more after stocking up on deeply undercut herbs. Especially once people aren't overloading themselves on flasks and pots to tackle the learning curve for The Lich King raid.

You say the Lotus sold, what about the 80 stacks of herbs and 28 Life? Because if those haven't sold, it's only a profit of 660g per hour, assuming he sold them at the 60g per average.

Question about the transmutes: anyone care to put me into the right direction? What it exactly is, what the requirements are, and what it approx costs to level alchemy to the proper skill? WoWwiki & similar sites aren't very clear about it. I have several teams around 60 so figured this could be worth it ...

Zenga:

you need 450 alkemey to do the transmutes. Just buy up herbs (goldthorn, felweed and tons of saronite are really nice to have) on the cheap in the week before you start, and make sure to get transmutation master (4 primal mights, ouch). Get the transmutation master asap as then you can make profite making the titanium from the saronite as you level up. The last 5 you need frost lotus for but you can resell the flasks for about the same cost. I think you need to be 65 as I try on a guy 61 and abonded it at 350 (well untill he hits 65).

Tips: Use recipies that call for the fewest (i.e. 1 of X and 1 of Y instead of 3 of X for example); Only do yellows if its 2-1 cost wise (i.e. if the materials to do the yellow is 1/2 cost of materials to do an orange); Avoid greens but sometimes you have no choice.

I have 7 450 alkemey now and its 1000G every 20 hours. Got 4 guild bank slots and was able to get to 450ish in eng (by far the most costly but I made a nesingway 4000!), bs and jc from the profit! I have almost 2 guild bank slots full of herbs right now getting ready to do more runs. I can get a guy to 450 in under a day easy after I stockpile the right stuffs on the cheap (i.e. buy when price is low and hold untill you do your run instead of buying what you need when you need it at rip off prices).

I also have 2 tailor at 450 and am working up another 2.

Gems are down to 140G each now but some guy buys every one I make of KA, MJ or CR. Dont make any cept those three. Does anyone know exactly what someone would sell with those 3 gems, the guy must buy like 20 gems a day easy whats he makeing?


Im turning over gold hand and fist. Just put yur stuff out when the lowest price is 80 percent of more of market price (best to move goods even at 80), and don't put it out otherwise. Check 2-3 times a day and cancel undercuts. Find items that no one else is selling; thats where the profit is.


Glad I made my start on bags before as the compeition is really cutthroat now, 8G for neatherweave and 40G for frostweave is common 90 percent of the time .....

On my server there are people who buy gems in bulk 20+ at a time, as well as all materials like frost lotus @ 900g per stack etc etc.

This has been my plan all along, i have gotten side tracked from leveling all the 65's and such though.

One thing I've been wondering and have even searched around for with no luck, is are there any good spots to just farm trash off mobs? Anyone know of any good mobs that drop trash that sales for high gold with good drop rates? I know most grey armor in Northrend sale for like 1-3g each and greens for 5g+. I'd like to just farm these mobs without having to run instances so much for this same reason. That way the mobs would go down faster and still drop some good stuff to vendor off. Everytime I do a search anywhere online, I just keep getting the old "Gold Salers Technique" crap sites. None I've ever even read mention anything about good trash mob locations. I know there's got to be some out there somewhere. One I found in the past for Linen Cloth was the airfield by Iron Forge, but there's no mailbox or vendors there (yet). But if I can find some good spots like this, I wouldn't mind investing in the Tundra Vendor Mount for this reason since I don't have an Engineer up high enough for the mailbox. Even that has a long cooldown on it that wouldn't help. I'm not lookin go make 2k g/hr, but it would be nice to make a good profit without the competition for nodes.

You must be 65 to get Grand master skill, that lets you get over 375. You must be a 68 to do the quest for Mastery (any of the 3) My guy is 65 and hit 425 today and has the Primals in the bank, now to level that little boomkin.

I agree, picking raw materials is a good business as long as others want to use time for games "real content".

Has anyone else noted that mounts are too fast nowadays. I fly around finding nothing and then when I stop ofr two seconds, a node appear to minimap just next to me. It can be just a coinsidence, but more likely GUI just can't update it completely as fast as I fly.
