Its so sad its funny

Grasshopper you must learn the ways of golden scale vendor fish, they are gray and vendor for 6 gold each to vendor, they stack to 20, so 120 gold per stack. sell as many as you wish. also gray items from fishing quest some sell for 10-20 gold , they stack also. it takes time to stack these up but what a way to move gold and each as pie to convert. Then again it takes time and planing

Uhm....where would you get the grays in the first place? Its not like people sell grays on the AH.

The grays come from fishing and the fishing quests. when I fish , I fish with 5 chars. Not fun but lots of fish to sell and motes of water and vender scale fish. dialy fishing quests nets grays all the time. save them on banker stack them and transfer char with stacked grays for instanst gold on other side

He had 15K in gold he wanted to transfer. He cannot magically turn his 15K gold into grays from fishing.

My thought process is not to loose gold on auction house cut. Only way to do that is plan ahead. I have stacks of vendor scale fish to bost a new start on another server. also tansfer weapons and items to lvl eng up to 350. have enough gold 8,500 is all thats needed to start a good 5 man grp.

math vendo for vendor scale fish

20 per stack = 120 gold
16 slot bags = 1920 gold
5 16slot bags = 9600 gold

once you add in bank solts you can get past 15k gold with ease. Again this takes lots of fishing. most will not do it but hey I do a lot of things that way

But what about your GOLD? Do you just leave it to rot on your ex-server?

[Jaws5]

Gold always get spent. I have Many mouths to feed. I have 3 grps of 5 on prmary PVE server and 2 grps of 5 on pvp server. I dont farm , fish as much on pvp server. dam rogues love to stun 2-3 of my fishing guys. but thats part of the pvp thing.

"Only" 8,000 gold...I hate you. :P It was enough trouble getting 5k for my epic flier...how you people manage to thousands like that stockpiled is beyond me ;P

Dailies are great for this. My 70Hunter does a circuit of his 25 dailies in about 2 hours, and then feeds the resulting gold to my 5-Shaman Team. On average, the Hunter feeds about 400g per day to the Shammies if I don't spend any of it on him.

The crux is getting time to do that and level the Shammy team. Typically that's only 2-3 times a week, but still that means Shammy teams gold is increasing by 1,000 gold per week.

Ouchy! I've collected todays taking and it appears I've made quite a loss on some trade goods. I bought quite a few stacks of Primal Mights, unfortunately on my old server they averaged ~160g each. But they only sell/sold for 80-110g on the next server. Its roughly a 4k loss. But I was expecting a loss as I didn't put any effort into comparing the market on each server. I simply wanted to move the gold. I've still managed to stock pill enough gold to see them well into 70 and power level their professions and in the end, its all I wanted.

26 weeks for epic flying mounts. /wrists

(this is why people buy gold boys and girls - not that they should. this is just one of the root causes)

Yeah, it would be if he only does it on his hunter. Take that circuit though with his 5 shaman at 70 and it's 2k gold per day, or 13 days for all 5 to have epic mounts. I haven't seen the point to farming mount money with my mains before my team were able to use it, now they are at 70 and all bought their own riding training and mounts and are back up to 1k gold each with 1/2 of SMV to go before starting dailies.

There literally is no reason to buy gold any more since the introduction of dailies and now the upping to 25 quest limit. yes, a case could be made for it back int he days of 40 mans and needing to buy mats for flasks, etc when you didn't have time outside raiding to go farm the mats yourself or grind the gold but now..not so much

The repetitiveness of dailies and raiding killed WoW for me personally. I went weeks just doing the same thing over and over and over grinding money for my epic mount and grinding Kara to get the guild geared. Didn't enjoy it, game wasn't fun and I quit. The whole progression through repetition treadmill pisses me off in general especially when the balance is skewed in the favour of repitition and not progression.
