    Yea sorry I got yanked from Starbucks and rather than start again later I just posted the half finished not checked post. I smacked my head after I lost connection and reread my post.

    So proper maths:
    4 chars would be 36,000g per month
    40 chars would be 360,000g per month

    Agreed it will take time leveling them up but after that it's passive income (1 team at a time of course). I already earn 100-200k a month from ah wheeling and dealing. This is attractive because once a week u post out enough mats for 1 week to 4 chars, then 30second transmutes daily, 5mins of cloth transmutes a week, 1 bag every 2 weeks. APM makes mailing out airs to centralized banker even faster.

    Don't have tailoring was hoping someone could test this on one 75 alt. Whatever profit u get multiply that by your spare alts. Is this a good form of passive income.

    Or think of it as 360k for us$60 a month. Cheap!

    Problem with tailoring/bs/lw is that you need to be able to get to the quartermaster to buy the recipes in twilight highlands. Which is 84 afaik.

    From someone who has 34 alchemists..

    Sure I'm close to 800k now, and am +400k since the launch of Cataclysm.
    The alchemy definitely makes a lot of gold, over time.

    But there's no way I log into the game every day and consistently do all the transmutes.
    There was a period where I wasn't excited about a new team yet, and they had announced nerfs that would kill my ferals as a competitive team.... so I did my Alchemy consistently for 45 mins a day, as my subscription was still going for 3.5 additional months at that point.
    That was probably the longest period of consistently doing the transmutes on all toons, every day.

    The other thing...
    My auction toon averages 8g per Volatile Life purchased.
    And averages 18g70s per Volatile Air sold in 1's, 5's or 10's, and 22g per Volatile Air sold in 20's, 50's or 100's.
    But when your transmutes supply you with more Air than people are buying, the stockpile doesn't earn you anything.
    I've had periods where I have 4000 Volatile Air in "stock", either because the market was flooded with 9g Volatile Air for a week by some idiot who listed in a larger volume than I wanted to buy out, or whatever...
    On my server, I average 10-12 stacks sold per day listed as 5's and 10's, and 4-5 stacks (of each size) per day listed as 20's, 50's or 100's.

    I'd look at Alchemy as a means to make consistent levels of gold.
    Which over time, form a very respectable passive income.
    But not something that can and will always make... a x b x c = d.... gold per month.

    8g for a volatile life? It's less than 1g on my server. Guess there arent many alchemists. That probably makes it more interresting to make some more alchemists.
