    Hi, thanks for the advice but I am not sure where you are getting these numbers from. I have tried running a few Cata. instances and making a fraction of this. Perhaps I am doing something wrong, please would you provide a slightly more detailed breakdonw of which instances and loot give these types of reward? In my experience, anything that can be farmed easily is rapidly nerfed.

    Cataclysm. Heroic. 25 man. AKA: Raids. This would be, Bastion of Twilight, Throne of the Four Winds, Blackwing Descent, Firelands and Dragonsoul. NOTE: It has to be 25 man heroic. Other modes drop substantially less gold and vendorable loot.

    Unless they have just stealth nerfed this, it is accurate. I was doing these instances weekly on my 5-box, meaning around 700g made per boss (5x125 gold drop + around 80-100g in vendorable items). From the top of my head there are a total of 28 bosses to kill (BoT 5, TotFW 2, BD 6, FL 7, DS 8) so with rounded numbers you're looking at around 20k a week, not counting BOEs, materials and the gold gained from trash.

    The bosses die very easily and you have a chance to get a few decent mounts as well, so I would say they are worth running.

    Now, if your team has good enough PVE gear and a viable set up, farming BoEs from trash still seems like a very good choise in both Highmaul and BRF. Depending on which mode you can manage, the drops can get you anywhere from 3-4k to 200k+. This info is based on Deimonics' success running his 8-box there. I did do two runs with him and got a BRF normal item that sold for about 10k.
