How to Make Money after 6.1?

[Lyonheart]

One quirk I've noticed about the AH, at least on my server, is people will buy my Felblight/Savage Blood when I put it on the AH in spite of it being 30-50g more expensive per item than the lowest price. What am I doing? I'm listing my items in stacks of 15. Enchanting crystals? Stacks of 15. People HAAAAATE clicking buy multiple times and it seems like they'll pay substantially more to get their instant gratification now instead of having to click and count.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I noticed the same thing.. i never sell for the lowest price. I sell my bloods in stacks of 50 and have 8+ stacks a week from my 20 barns. They sell out every time. The time investment is less than two hours a week total for 100k+ a week. I only spend more time than that right now because im doing the holiday dailies from the garrison..but i have been making an extra 50K+ from that..plus i have gotten 4 of the mounts and have yet to try and sell them ( i used one for my account ).

Great ideas here! 8) Bottom line is..it is a lot easier to make gold this expansion for me than any other..so ill keep doing it until it dries up. I would not mind just focusing on playing the rest of the game come Legion, since i should have more than enough gold to last a long time by then.

What kind of time investment am I looking at to start barns fresh? I guess I don't even know what barns are...

I went from one barn on one toon to level 3 barns on 20 toons last night. The beauty of it is that the Master Trapper (150 work orders at the barn) achievement required to unlock barn level 3 is account-wide, so when you create 5 work orders on 20 toons, that's 100 work orders towards it, and you'll get ~200 just from completing the barn level 1 and barn level 2 intro quests on 4 teams. Pretty easy ramp up relative to almost any other level 3 building. I think I spent about 3k per toon on plans (1k each).

I forgot to add that the time investment to get lvl3 barns is a one time deal if all your toons are on the same bnet. So yea, like Ugh said.. once you have one lvl3 barn its just a matter of having enough resources and gold+ the hour each tier upgrade. Also, once you get the quest for the lvl3 barn.. you dont have to turn it in right away.. you can farm up a bunch of cages and turn it in when you go back.

And hows the gold going from these ??? enjoying it ?

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Gradually getting the feel of things. So far I'm averaging about 12k/day from pretty low effort, that'll go up a bit more once the storehouse level 3 finishes (+15 work orders). Some teams take a lot longer to farm traps but that's expected. The gold I made in the last few days I spent getting hexweave bags for everyone. I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Just make sure you have skinners assigned to your barns. there are two skinner followers you can get.. one is very easy if its not bugged ( was bugged for my last team ) you kill an npc that drops a key to open a cage for Goldmane. If that is bugged..the only other one that comes with skinning is Hudla Shadowblade. You get her from a quest in Spires for choosing the Brewery outpost ability. It took me about an hour to complete the quest.

Also you might have had some skinner traits assigned to random followers..so check that first.

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Yep, I have Goldmane since that one was by far the easiest to obtain. They apparently fixed the bugs with despawning and key drops so he's available 100% now.

A tip if you also use your followers for garrison missions,

Followers cant go on garrison missions if they are assigned to a building, but you dont have to assign a follower when you start the workorders, just has to be there when you collect them, just assign/unassign them only when you collect.

I used to do this but kept forgetting to put the follower in there before i looted the sack.. and i make way more money off my barn than all 5 teams and their missions..so i just keep him in there.

Yeah I should have mentioned that, sometimes i'll just forget and miss out.
