What?150 gold I just had it!

[WarInSerbia]

I need gold.Not just for the mounts but also for a quest.
So any tips on how to get gold,"ono" realy realy fast?

[Dayoh]

If ur 60+ Instances or ur proffs if there high enough.

If ur like lvl 30 odd, get ur proffs really high and work the AH.

[WarInSerbia]

W00t?
And I talked with a friend today,he told me that he got 600 gold for some armor in the "auction house".Now he knows where it is for the alliance (at the fountain in stormwind) but he doesent know where is it for the horde,he thinks that its in durotar just right after you enter the city.

The way I make money is by mining and herbing things. I picked up both professions on my Druid (With epic flight form) and take a full round of Nagrand a night. Usually I can come up with 3-4 stacks of Adamantite (Stacks, not veins), and a good chunk of herbs, including Dreaming Glory, Felweed, and ocasionally a Lotus or two. Takes a couple hours, and it's usually at the "weird time" on the server (Read as: 2:00 AM), but it gets lots of gold for me, because I prospect all the ore (Thanks to my jewelcrafter in guild), and then send all the herbs to a shared bank between me, my jewelcrafting friend, and another herbalist. Then we just pass out mats as we go for pots, and when we have an overflow, we AH the rest, and split profit.

'Course, that's higher levels. At lower levels, I used Herbalism and Alchemy to pick herbs and make potions. I'd pick every single bloody herb I saw. Even if I didn't need it, I picked it. Then I auctioned it. I carried a 20 slot herb bag for a while just because I had so many slots dedicated to herbs for a while. Just pick everything, even if it seems worthless. All that Kingsblood and Mageroyal you see adds up really, really quick. Plus, if you get some good potion recipes from Alchemy, make those, and sell the potions. If it's a rare combine (Swiftness potion, etc), you can really make some money on it! Swiftness potions on my server used to sell for over 1.50 gold per potion. I went from about 10 gold on my Shaman to about 50 gold in a week, just on those potions.

There's plenty of other ways, but those're the two ways I use and worked for me.

Woa what this again with the reply box?!

Anyway,I got 10 gold for just giving a lvl 70 guy the blessing of kings [a.k.a. give you 10% more stats] and he gave me 10 gold!!
I got mining but the problem is I cant mine anything and I dont have a clue how to increase it[I'm still at zero]!!!PM me on how to begin mining.

The auctions work,I put a ring [+5 stamina] and I got 20 gold for it.But still that isnt even close to a guy that put some super good armor for 1250 gold [bids].Gota work realy hard...

10g for Blessing of Kings? Sheesh, What friggin' server are you on?

And to level mining - Get a mining pick, turn on "Track Minerals," and you'll see yellow blips on your minimap when you're close to a node you can mine. Go up to it, and right click. It's just like looting a monster after that.

A good way to earn money on low lvls is too find "twink" gear and auction it, daggers at like lvl 19 sell for alot.

[WarInSerbia]

I got now to 50th level.And I found a bug (usefull for me)!I came acros this Mok'rash some high level elite giant and I say to myself:let me try to kill him to see how strong I am.And I cast silence and I acidently presed 5 (shortcut for hamer of justice),And I stuned him,I went a bit back to heal myself and started waiting for him,but he didnt came he froze!I stuned him pernamently somehow!And after 10 minutes I killed him giving me a lot of exp and some gold,also a good helmet and a "polearm skill" weapon.

Frozen skull (I know what a noob)

It's just like looting a monster after that.I know but the fucking thing is I cant mine in for any myneral I found (coper,iron,gold,ore anything) it says "requires 75 mining ..." and I didnt get a mining pick maybe thats the problem...

[RavenCrusade]

Go back to your Starting Territory, and mine Copper.
Copper Requires 0 Minning, so it's impossible not to be able to mine it.
Make sure you have a mining pick =D

[The_Maker]

To save up for a mount, just grind the hell out of your level isntances 3 and 4 times a day, and roll greed on anything you don't need. You let me know when you discover a better way.

[WarInSerbia]

Ok I increased my mining for a bit [35] its good to see that smelting also increases your mining skill :).

Once again some lvl 70 b elf paladin just stops in front of me and gives me 100 gold!Those guys are crazy but I like it ;).

Also I "tried" yesterday to enter outland,but those stupid idiots didnt tell me that I have to be 58th level [and I'm 55th!!!]also are there some good high level creeps in Outland?

[GenocideAlive]

I make like 50 gold an hour in Nether. I need to do something with myself, though, because I have First Aid and Leatherworking, and both are almost useless. I make no money, no items, and nothing worth keeping. I need to find some of those reputation guys that sell receipes for armor because I bite ass.

Advice for where to find receipes that I can buy to start selling stuff?

[ScottieIWU]

GA, your best bet is to drop one of your two primary professions in favor of the gathering profession for that. Either one, at 70, will take a decent amount of time to level up, but herbalism will probably be longer because you have to actually find the herbs sitting around. Skinning would just involve you going around and two-shotting low-level mobs that you can skin until you hit stuff in the OL, where you'd start getting leatherworking mats that are useful.

Once you choose that, go farm in SMV at Coilskar Cistern for cobra scales, or farm Aged Clefthoof in Nagrand (there are a ton just south of Garadar) for their Thick Clefthoof Leather. Either one is pretty useful for high-end LW stuff.

Another choice would be to farm Primals to sell on AH, or to farm primals for your Primal Might xmute, as each one (on my server) tends to go for about 75g. If your Alchemy is transmute specced, you may even get a proc which is even more free money.

[GenocideAlive]

Scottie, you fucking nerd, I only understand like every third word of what you're saying. XD I have skinning and leatherworking, which I thought was a given (sorry).

However, I'm just running around Nether getting a bunch of items and crap that I sell back to vendors. I save anything that says "Primal" or "Elemental", because I've seen those sold in the AH. I also have a Fel Armament, which sells for like 20g in the AH but I have no idea why so I save it. Where would I farm Primals? Which mobs drop them where? What's a Primal Might transmute? Srsly, first aid is for bitches.

I will try these places you mention for Leatherworking / Skinning if you stop using acronyms and give a brief blurb on which continent they're on. And I don't know what good materials for high end LW stuff would do me if I don't have the recipes for that gay crap. There should be a guide for getting help in this game. I swear, it's like trying to decode a foreign language.

[WarInSerbia]

Advice for where to find receipes that I can buy to start selling stuff?
Killing creeps and auctions for recipies [buying recipies at your trainer also helps] and auctions to start seeling stuff.

[ScottieIWU]

Scottie, you fucking nerd, I only understand like every third word of what you're saying. XD I have skinning and leatherworking, which I thought was a given (sorry).Sorry about that, I checked your armory profile and it said it was LW and Alchemy. That makes this reply a lot easier then.

Sorry for a wall of text, but I'll do my best to intro you to teh gold farmings.

To begin with, Fel Armaments, Arcane Tomes, Sunfury Signets, Marks of Sargeras, Firewing Signets and Marks of Kil'Jaedan are all reputation items used for the Scyers/Aldor reputation factions in Shattrath city. If you want more explanation of that, let me know.

In terms of Skinning/LW, basically what you want to save are the following:

Knothide Leather Scraps
Knothide Leather
Heavy Knothide Leather
Wind Scales
Cobra Scales
Thick Clefthoof Leather.

All of those are used in high-end (300+) leatherworking. If you're looking to sell off those items, use your leatherworking window to use the option to convert the Knothide Scraps into Knothide leather (5 scraps = 1 Knothide) which you can then turn from Knothide Leather to Heavy Knothide leather (5 Knothide = 1 Heavy Knothide). The difference is just that the 350 to 360 range and over in LW requires heavy knothide to make anything worthwhile.

To get recipes, you'll have to go to various rep faction vendors to see what you can get. If you go to the Cenarion Outpost in Zangarmarsh, you can get the patterns (if you don't already have them) for the Thick Clefthoof Legs, Vest and Boots. The vendor in Honor Hold in Hellfire has a couple of recipes that you may be able to get. The Kurenai quartermaster in Telaar has some mail patterns that will be useful for elemental shamans. Other recipes will drop around the world, and are just random epic world drops that are really rare.

The primals you gather are also useful, as most leatherworking recipes will require some form of primal.

Which leads me to primals. Sorry if you already know what they're for, but I'd rather be overzealous than explain too little. Primals are basically a cutoff or choke point for high-end professions to slow down the creation of rare or epic items. Therefore, most often on top of having to gather a ton of skinning items, you may sometimes need 10 Primal Airs also. That makes them fairly valuable, and the hardest to get/best ones are usually Primal Airs and Primal Fires.

You can farm primals anywhere you see an elemental in the Outlands. They drop in motes, which as I gather from your post you've noticed, will form the primals themselves. Primal Mana are the trickiest, seeing as you can only gather them in Netherstorm either from the Mana Wraiths outside of Area 52 or the Mageseekers and stuff over by Kirin'Var village in Netherstorm, which is located on the southernmost island in Netherstorm.

Every other elemental is represented on the elemental plateau, which is located in Nagrand. If you go from Telaar to the north, flying over Garadar (well not over, but around or the Horde guards will knock you off your mount and you'll probably die from the fall) to the Throne of Elements you'll see the EP just to the east on your map of the actual words "Throne of Elements." There's often a lot of everybody there, so you may end up in some PvP, but it sounds like you'll enjoy that.

Help any? Sorry if I condescended or whatever, but that's the basic low-down.

And yes, I am a nerd.

[GenocideAlive]

No problem, that was probably the most helpful stuff I've gotten. I've gathered quite a bit of Prime Elementals and I have tons of leather stuff like Fel Leather, Crystal Infused Leather, etc. My main problem is that I have no decent receipes that will sell for more than 5g in the auction house once I go to all the trouble of making them.

Additionally, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out what makes Primal Mana Motes the most difficult to get, yet the Primal Air / Fires are the most valuable. I guess there could be a lot more Primal Air / Fire receipes, but it's still a little weird. I think I need to spend a little time examining the honor system and the "dealers" of it, because I have a very poor grasp of it. I know I keep getting honor from various factions for completing quests / killing certain mobs / turning in kill tokens, but I'm still having a lot of trouble figuring out how to use the honor I earn.

I even have a little "Honor Hold" green bar under my task bar that's 3/5 full, but I don't know how to make it go up or how to use the stuff that I have. It's a little weird.

[WarInSerbia]

And what can I do with honor points?Some guy said that I can use to buy stuff,oh and where [horde]?
